Dungeon Master Forum

Yeay for blueyonder, I've always said they are the best provider in the UK.

Yes, I feared it was. It's great to hear so many folks are into RTC, and as ever thanks and keep up the groovey work.

lol, yep, well now we have more BW for all (about 20 or so maybe more) the folks who need it

Dunno how long this link will last, not sure what bandwidth I have with my personal space. Anyway get RTC 0.40 while its hot from

The first link below the header.

Maybe someone should email Christophe. It's hosted on his space isn't it ?

btw still crawling now.

I vote for the pouch too, that's where I alwqays keep the RF. Seems the most obvious place for it.

Indeed, a library and incluse system for wallsets and te like could be used to control bloat.

In reference to RTC 0.39 crashing...

The dryness of the last sentence killed me.

Whilst looking at the CSB dungeon in the editor, I noted a small error in level 4, and when I say small I really do mean it.

There is a dent floating inside the wall space at 15,11 (editor coords)

Not sure if it's a dupe or it's just in the wrong position. Either way it's in the wrong place.

Oh yeah, I just noticed. Heehee

Share the save ?

thats my guess too

I believe the E button is to alter an existing target, effectively deleting and adding, but with a single click.

Yes a third E button would be cool, to save me from RSI, or just leave the A button active so it can do the job.

yeay, more content from DM2 can be used without needing to be whack'ed or whatever

All the runes in the DM RTC dungeon are on scrolls, the runes on potions are just to let you know at a glance what kind of potion it is.

The potions don't contain the Ya rune, they are just Ya potions

Coloured light would effect all dungeon contents not just wallsets, shifting the hue of any object it fell on. Monsters could glow (if allowed to cast light intrinsically) Objects such as Bilbo's sword "Sting" could be made to glow and cast a cloured light on the presence of and enemy (aga...

ah, that was kind of why I asked about doing it with light. Making new wallsets isn't the easiest thing in the world.

I'm going to guess that it will have opby_party

I like the export map idea. Not so sure about giving the whole game away with the txt files though. Although it did get me thinking. Way back the editor could load RTC files, maybe a switch for designers to enable/disable this ability. I can't see this one arriving but, input added non the less.

*Drags this back on topic.*

I asked if light might ever becoloured, now it cab be localised. It would make fo rsome nice spot effects and could be useful for making underwater or deep arborial type settings.

Just to clarify all these Floppy sizes:

Atari: 360/720 kb single/double density
Amiga 880 kb/1.68 Mb double/high density
PC 720 kb 1.44 Mb double/high density

Bloody marvelous, I've always said this to friends but never here. RTC is to dungeon crawls as unreal is to FPS, a complete and rounded package to allow new content and levels to be easily and seemlessly made. A first rate accomplishment for a "bedroom programmer" GG I salute you.

Wicked stuff as ever GG, erm will they ever be coloured?

Are you suggesting a team DM2. Dunno if I have the time and/or concentration span for that. I am however "processing the DM2 images into the format mentioned above, when I'm done I'll let you know

Those images still need work, sizing and power pinking.

Or can't you move the no sleep etc in the tile order ?

Splendid, yeay for enhanced "dungeon mechanics"

Sorry for lack of feedback, I still haven't had time to sit down with this one.
