Well, my friends and I installed v1.02 looking forward to not having
gold vanish in town and have our chars armor show up properly. 
Initially all was working great, then we had a system hang.  First some
details:

	- We never dupe stuff, so nothing was lost.
	- 3 systems over IPX in the same room.
	- never had a problem other than lost gold/items before.

So, first my system hangs?  I figure that it is a fluke, so I reboot and
continue.  Nothing was lost so I was ok to continue (other than my map)
Then it goes again.  I never saw this playing on my own yet and I always
play multi.  Over the evening we lost systems 4 times.  In a second
session we lost it twice more.  The NT systems never hung, but the two
w95 did.  One time the other players dropped out and the game was
totally lost.  The games still showed up on the systems that were not
hung, but they were not able to join it.  Seems to be when the original
host pc hangs.

Anyone else have this?  I also say the problem with items vanishing but
not in town.  I walked into a room and tried to pick up an item and it
vanished.... Still must be a few bugs.

Ok... before you fry me, I love the game.  Play it all the time.  Just
may go back to v1.0 until this hang problem is fixed.  Dont mind the
loss of gold, we have gotten to the point of dropping items in town and
only selling them when we need the money and keeping the money in our
inventory during the game.  Thanx for any idea if you have em...
