First of all, it's great to see that Wizardry is still so popular.For those that may be interested, I have a couple of java utilities available at www.bytezone.com/apple. One is a dedicated Wizardry utility which reads scenario disks and displays the contents - maps, characters, monsters etc. This hasn't been updated for several years, but handles scenarios 1 & 2, and most of 3.
The second is a general purpose apple disk browser, which also handles wizardry disks. I am currently incorporating the wizardry utility into this program, and it is a little better with scenario 3.
To use these programs you may need to install a java runtime (details on the web page).
Enjoy.
Hi Denis,Downloaded it again, now it works... strangely the first time I downloaded it downloaded as .zip files instead of .jar files.
Soooo... I fired it up and oh my!!! What can I say, this is excellent work, well above and beyond expectations. Now I'll be able to post much better maps of the custom Wizardry scenarios other fans and I did!
I wish I had known about your work before now, but better now than never.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.

P.S. My web site is at http://www.zimlab.com/wizardry/ if you ever get the hitch of playing Wizardry I again but with a different maze, monsters, items, races, classes, etc. There's also Oubliette that you can play which is one of Wizardry's ancestors and inspiration.
