My son and I have have both completed POG some weeks ago. We spent the better part of month playing. We would like to use the Trinity plugin but have been unable to. I have been unable to get Trinity to load. A window comes up on start up. I "x" the proper box. POG then either asks to start or load previous game ,no change. What am I doing incorrectly? Are there any successful Trinity users online who can advise ?

Mr. Krawn,
Are you sure Trinity isn't working? When it starts up the only difference in the main screen is that there is a small logo in the bottom right hand corner of the screen. It has a picture of 3 heads in a triangular configuration. If you see this, then Trinity is working. You will need to select a new game, and you will go through the introduction as normal. When you get to the end of the intro you will be asked to select your characters class and then things proceed from there.
If you do not see the logo then Trinity is not loading, so...
The first question that comes to my mind is how did you get your copy of Trinity? If you got it from the Ambrosia CD then you have a copy of Trinity that will not work. There is a problem with the Ambrosia CD in that the Trinity folder is empty of data, thus won't work. You must have either downloaded the Trinity plugin from Ambrosia's server, or else purchased the Coldstone CD which comes with a useable copy of Trinity. So if this is your problem then the solution is relatively easy: download a fresh copy of Trinity from Ambrosia.
If you have a complete copy of Trinity, then there is only one thing that I can think of at the moment. When you get Trinity and unstuff it, you will be left with a folder titled: "Trinity Plugin Folder." Inside this folder are 4 items: a folder entitled "(X) Trinity Plugin," Icon_, READ ME.txt, and Trinity Manual.PDF. Take the folder called "(X) Trinity Plugin" and remove it from the "Trinity Plugin Folder" and place only this folder into your POG->plugins directory. Ie, do not place the "Trinity Plugin Folder" into the plugins directory, only place the "(X) Trinity Plugin" folder in there.
Btw, just to make sure everything is in the folder that should be, do a "Get Info" on the "(X) Trinity Plugin" folder. It should have a size of 15.7 MB.
If your setup is like the above, and you still can't get it to work, post back and we'll try to help you further.
Good luck.

Thank you ! Your advise concerning Trinty was useful .
Yes I/we did have a cd and had used the plugin from the cd. I did however download a plugin
some weeks ago. The removeal of the plugin from the packaged folder is what did the trick.
