Gary, I also had this happen, when I first downloaded a batch of adventures from the start of the download list (Zeus-only; "Light a Candle for Poseidon" - or something similar - was the first one to use the expansion). I made a purpose of adding the ID number to each downloaded quest, once moved into the Adventures folder, and had quests numbering up to 074 (for quest ID 74). I discovered that other than quest 074 actually appearing on the list of main quests (which got an odd reaction from myself), that nothing about 054 appeared, and even The Odyssey - which came with the expansion - was missing. I promptly backed up the Adventures folder (I also backed up the paks, and put them in a folder which also contained my Adventures backup), and deleted some from the main location; I'll copy the others back over when it's their turn for an attempt.

For now, I'm going to start my Poseidon journey by ensuring the entire Dedication series (also Nightwolf, and 14 tests in all) is installed and working. I shall then tackle the ones I feel confident about (I'm still new, so Easy or Moderate is enough for now). I also gave Racing Form and InDeep a try today. I'll add others as I go. ^_^

Duane, Gary
I do believe the total number of adventures you can have in your "Adventures" folder is 14. I keep adventures in another folder ("Archives") and move them into the "Adventures" folder when I want to play them. Remember you also have to have an additional copy of the .pak file in the "Adventures" folder, or else the game will go into open play after the first episode. Hope this helps - once you get the system down it's great! Thanks to Zeus Heaven for having this Downloads section!!

Gary there is a limit on the number of adventure that the game will recognize. I had the same problem sometime back and solved it by deleting some of the folders in the Adventure folder. I am sorry I don't remember what the limit is but if you delete some your problem should be solved. If you ever want to restore the deleted adventures you can as long as you keep the zip file.

Good Luck
Duane

It seems that all the newer download lately are not being recognized by my game, I have Zeus...Poseidon...enchancement 2.1 and the Rich man Blues upgrade. None of the adventures I have been downloading and puting them in the adventure folder...and each has a folder with the name of the adventure on it...is being seen oncve I get into the game...neither under Zeus or Poseidon. I need some help here please.....if enyone bothers to read this stuff. I have posted before and no response yet. :(

Another fun-filled adventure with an especially good map. The building of the monument to Poseidon was quite a task but very rewarding--it's such an impressive structure. Good fun! Keep them coming! We're playing! Thank you very much!
