Nice work! I'm glad to see I found the right person. 18 years ago huh.. Sheesh, I was only 5 years old.
It's unfortunate that there's no files he could give us, unless he's thinking that we're asking for the source code, which isn't the case.
I'm not sure where to take the search from here.. I guess the next step would be to write an article on the site. I'll get right to it whenever I get some time.
I thank both you and tomysshadow for your hard work. Hopefully we'll be able to find this along with the other Throbbing Media games in the near future!

Gmail actually cut my response off. I asked him for the actual files that were missing in the screenshot and then for the entire game (no need for him to change anything or update it we would do it ourselves) in the other. He hasnt responded to the latter yet

Ah, I see. Also one of your images didn't load so I was missing some context.
I'll hold off on writing an article for a little while longer then.
Hopefully he can send you what we're looking for. Shockwave may be old and dead now, but there are still people out there who have the tools and skills to make these things work again!

I would just start working on a rough draft that way it's already partially ready just in case he doesnt get back with us. Someone out there has to have the game archived if Roger doesnt have it anymore

MAJOR UPDATE: I got a response
edit: what is up with the image uploader Ive tried adding a clean link to the image 12 times and each time it uploads the website link as a square with no image!
Great work! Hopefully we'll hear back from him with some news soon.
I suppose I should have mentioned that the number is Australian, my bad.
As for the image linking, the way it works is you need to right-click the image and copy image address.
If the url doesn't end in an image format, like .png or .jpg, the linking will not work.
I did hear back though the update had what he said. And no matter what link I use it wont post. I did it up above but it’s not working now. I want the images uploaded for when we find it BlameItOnJorge can make a video and we can be famous

Yeah that was it!
So far we know Roger has the files but doesnt want to hand them over. Dean wasnt part of the team but was an avid user of Director that lead to shockwave dev at the time. He has some contacts. Along with your links on the first page it looks like we are exhausting our resources. Last option would be contact some of the band members from Oysterhead
