I've been thinking about setting up a schedule for giving Vassal demonstrations to anyone who might be interested. It takes about an hour of time which would be perfect on my lunch breaks. I can schedule something during the week between 12 noon and 2PM EST.

Is anyone interested in learning?

Are there any other experts who would be willing to teach on a regular basis?

What if we made a log of a game with step-by-step instructions on how to do stuff, etiquette, etc. Then we could just leave simple instructions on how to run Vassal and view the log.

Shouldn't be too hard to do. They actually have one for VASSAL that comes with the installation (tour.mod and tour.log), though it's not DDM specific. Might be nice to do a DDM specific one.

That is an excellent idea!

Well, I finally got around to making the demo. It's uploaded to here:
http://happyhikers.ca/EternalCampaign/LogUploads/Misc/00-demo1.mod

To run this, follow Bshugg's guide here: http://www.maxminis.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=12308
Once you have the module loaded, go to File -> Load Game and load the demo.

Let me know if anybody has any questions or comments.

Know problems with the current version:
Aramil doesn't actually have LoS to the lower wolf (didn't notice those two walls).
The retire button isn't visible to observers, including demo-watchers.
It should probably be a .log file...

I've tried the link but get a message that the file is not found. What's up? Am I not clicking hard enough?[)]
Will this be back up any time soon? It looks really useful so I hope it comes back... Thanks!

I think it got taken down when the ftp server was revamped. I'll try to find a locally-stored copy and re-upload it when I get a chance.

Ah, found it; it wasn't removed, just reorganized. I updated the link in the post above.

Hey Chad,

   I can't play during the day...but I'll be checking in in the evenings to see if I can catch you when you have some free time.
