Custom dungeon 'The Tower Of Chaos' review by PicturesInTheDark
Reviewer : PicturesInTheDark Gameplay : 8. Although I found the way through the dungeon too chaotic despite your claim of "pretty straight forward" in the text file, this is the only criticism I can make here. Otherwise beautifully laid out and a lot of twists and turns to follow until th...

Custom dungeon 'Imprisoned Again' review by PicturesInTheDark
Reviewer : PicturesInTheDark Gameplay : 9. Well-planned and complex dungeon design guaranteeing (lots of) fun and (a lot more) sweat for days or even weeks. Originality : 8. As I’ve seen by trying out some of your dungeons just for a few levels, you already tried the "4 ways approach" in ...

Custom dungeon 'The Tomb of King Hissssa' review by PicturesInTheDark
Reviewer : PicturesInTheDark Gameplay : 4. Basically this dungeon is intended for butchers - puzzles are rare and mostly reduced to finding out where keys/coins/gems were left so the next door will open. No good balance in my opinion. Originality : 6. Although I did not like the monster inflation v...

Custom dungeon 'The Grave of King Millias' review by PicturesInTheDark
Reviewer : PicturesInTheDark Gameplay : 5. Straight dungeon approach with a straight line of play. Without the training area this might have been pretty painful. Originality : 4. Major parallels to the original DM (some parts were simply used from the original), but riddles and paths got more uniqu...

Custom dungeon 'Return of Chaos' review by PicturesInTheDark
Reviewer : PicturesInTheDark Gameplay : 6. Straight dungeon approach with 3 ways to solve leading to a single final path. Not too heavy to follow, pleasant to play. Originality : 5. Although probably not too hard to build this dungeon had some fun riddles in it. For example, the teleporter room are...

Custom dungeon 'Poison' review by PicturesInTheDark
Reviewer : PicturesInTheDark Gameplay : 6. A bit tough to let the knights in so early or to make a couatl trap room, but on the other hand the fun was there after the first heart attack. Solid work, characters are strong enough to survive with tactics. Originality : 5. Not very mind-blowing, but a ...

Custom dungeon 'Reactor' review by PicturesInTheDark
Reviewer : PicturesInTheDark Gameplay : 7. Good balance between riddles, monsters and the various ways you have to go to get to the end of the dungeon. Originality : 8. Never got bored for a minute. Knights at the top, even a golem and a dragon were fun; Bio lab, the giggler with the gem and the ma...

Custom dungeon 'Beastmaster' review by PicturesInTheDark
Reviewer : PicturesInTheDark Gameplay : 5. Pretty straight end enjoyable, no time wasted for long searches made the dungeon fun. Originality : 5. I have to stress here, that I never attempted a full build, so this is a shaky verdict based on little experience on the subject. I liked the teleporters...

Reviewer: PicturesInTheDark Custom dungeon reviewed: Surgical Strike v2.2 Link: https://1drv.ms/f/s!AsBu7boYHQokbYK3rjKY0b5_ra8 For what it’s worth these days I still feel that after playing a custom dungeon (at least one that I finished) I owe the producer at least a review in terms of gratitude a...

Re: Original DM Conversion for DSB?
Hi. I played through the dungeon once (0.69) and most of the original features seem fine. Movement and spell casting is a bit slower than with RTC 0.49, but as far as I remember that is actually truer to the original although it hampers you a bit once you are used to running quickly / casting spells...

Same problem
Hi to all who remember me - I'm having the same problem as Gambit once had and can't find a solution in the posts here. Playing with RTC 0.45, 3/4 of the monitors are working (except the furnace). I go down, my minions are already placed, put in several Pyros, go back the quickest way I can find via...

Thanks, yes I was indeed trying the builds 1.41 to 1.43. But since 1.4 worked fine and I also did not know the OverlayDemo contained the last exe for CSBwin that probably explains my problems. That means at the moment compatibility exists always between the latest versions but not necessarily backwa...

Theron's quest(s) for CSBwin
I was playing the first two dungeons the other day and notied that in the second there are 3 blue gem holes, one of which -at 2(10,7)- does not have the "only once" checkbox and theoretically swallows gems endlessly. I don't know if it's the same in the original and since there are 5 gems ...

CSBuild V1.41-1.43
Trying to add a simple item, then savin the game and loading it with CSBwin V9.7 produced an error 2989 ("Saved game damaged). With V1.4 it worked. Are the latest three builds still in development or is that a yet unknown error? Save game can be provided if necessary but should be easy to repro...
