my opinion about this:

D1: best robots and the plus that it is the one that started it all (I played D1 demo for YEARS until I got D2)
D2: best Gameplay
D3: best graphics (at least until D2X-XL gets the HiRes Textures :wink: )

IMHO it's better to leave it the way it is - it's working (kinda)
if you separate D1X-XL and D2XL you'd have 2 programs to maintain and the users would have to use 2 programs with 2 profiles and so on
do you really think that it would be easier for you?

RTFM! somewhere on Diedel's Descent page you'll find the key to make screenshots - I think it's Alt+F12, but I'm not sure. Look it up and I'm sure it'll work. The PrintScreen key will only copy the screen to the clipboard.
