Re: How to deal with Lord Chaos

LOL... Lord Chaos can be scared away, but a simple screamer cannot. That is nice :) Are there hackers out there who made themselves a firestaff available in CSB? Could that be used on Lord Chaos to defeat him? My guess would be that fluxcage might work to hold him and fuse might work to teleport him...

How to deal with Lord Chaos

You all know that at some time, Lord Chaos will show up while the party is on the way to the FulYa pit. What is your way to deal with him? I normally try to lure him to some location a bit away from the place where I need to continue with the game, and the run quickly away from him. But is there a &...

Re: SOTF Sins of the Father

I know it is an old thread... but just stumbled into this dungeon :)
Can someone give me a clue about how to open the blocked door in the graceyard? The one which is guarded by a beholder and is blocking access to some stairs leading down.
Any clue is appreciated :)

Re: lockpick

CSB teleports the gigglers to random locations in the dungeon the first time you enter the level with the junction of the ways. Not all teleporters lead to levels that support gigglers, so the one with the lockpicks could have landed on a level without gigglers and have died instantly. One time, I f...

Re: strange bug in the st version

I had something similar many years ago in the amiga version. I threw all my arrows, darts, daggers etc. onto a monster with many hitpoints (I guess it was a scorpion), but all these projectiles did not kill it. Later on, I defeated another monster with magic. The game froze for a moment, then all my...

Re: Ravenhood 3.20

And two more questions, if I may...

...some hints indicate there is an iron castle somewhere on the map. Where would I need to go to find that?

Re: new monster has only 1 HP

setting it to 200 helped, the monster has now more than 1 HP. I did not yet determine how many, but at least more than 1 :)
I will need to test a little bit to adjust the value, but the clue helded.

new monster has only 1 HP

I would like to use a WALLITEM ACTION to ACTION_CREATE_NEW_ON_FLOOR a monster which has basix health 30.
The monster gets created, but has only 1HP. Even if I set the STRENGTH in the WALLITEM ACTION, it stays the same.
What do I need to do to get a monster with higher HP?

Re: where did Lord Chaos get his Skeletons from?

So, this would mean Skeletons do not come from champions (or peasants), as they also regenerate. Creatures which do not regenerate are rare... we have Vexirks, Rusters, Animated armors, Stone golems, Demons, the Red Dragon and Lord Chaos himself. Maybe the champions got transformed into the Humanoid...

where did Lord Chaos get his Skeletons from?

The DM manual, at least the German one, stated that Lord Chaos created many of the creatures in the dungeon out of the heroes who had entered the dungeon. As a "reminder" for others not to enter it. The DM dungeon features many Skeletons. The Skeleton appears to be the most common creature...

I did not get it to work. The step with the "click 1" action fails. I configured to ACTION_OBJECT_ACTIVATE and wanted to choose the relay. As I cannot select a specific relay but only the object type in general, I used a cloned relay called WALLITEM_RELAY_PICKPOCKET, which does the checks....

Re: Causing a creature to drop an item

It would be an empty handed attack method, which should only be available after some Ninja levels have been made.
But I guess clicking on the creature would also be okay. A relay could be put in between to check for the Ninja levels... and I would save a slot for empty handed attack methods :)

Causing a creature to drop an item

Hi all,

is there a way to have a creature drop a carried item? I would like to implement some kind of pickpocketing, as an attack method, which causes a creature to drop an item.

Due to my own stupidity, I will need to start again. I got cornered near the fountain at midnight by ghosts which I can neither defeat nor scare away.
Of course I did not create multiple saves, why should I have done that?

I just had a short look at the start of part 2 and managed to leave the cell. But down in the cave I seem too slow to bash down the brittle wall that blocks the way before something behind me kills me instantly. Did I miss something in the cell which I would need down here?

If I might use that save from you, I will try to finish part 1.

Damned, I never finished it. Always got killed by... was it a knight?, on the ship, as the disease had drained my levels.

In the meantime I got a new PC and lost my saves, also for other games as well.
