I once lived in a house with five other boys. I don't mind a bit of a mess, but they were filthy. The way it worked was that all the dishes would always be dirty and all over the place. If you wanted to use something you cleaned it first and left it dirty. That is, of course, more work because the d...

My fave was this one http://resonantedge.com/images/frisk02.jpg
I like the name Frisk too.

How about 'Cunning Gambit LTD' ?

Run it on windows?
Or a windows emulator.

That is classic.

I'd be happy to attempt 3) and I would like a copy of the txt file anyway.

I still get this crash...I think I'm using the updated version 15. I just downloaded it.

DARK CAVERNS...

I could never draw something like that.
Even in a year.
Even in ten.

I can't get at graphics2.dat with either grabber or dat.exe
Is it encrypted or something?
You are right about grabber being awful!

Is the other the lord librasulus cheat mode?

I will have a look with Allegro first, if I don't get far with that maybe you can
send me a zip

What is the format of graphics.dat (& graphics2).
Are there existing tools that can look and poke around inside them?

Ah I see. I thought it would be a floor item for some reason.
So if I wanted to have a screen with multiple buttons I would achieve this by having bitmaps for the buttons and giving them different offsets to position them (when adding thier graphics)?

How do you add a plot screen?
Can't see anything in the editor for it.

Would it be (/is it currently) possible to have say, a hidden skills scroll.
When viewed by a character it's text showing that characters hidden skillz0rs.

Did you start the new job yet?

The idea I had was to ... make the xp needed not so exponential.

I just realised that this could of course be achieved with exponential experience multipliers.
I.E for levels 0,1,2,3,4,...,n multplier = 2^0, 2^1, 2^2, 2^3, 2^4, ....., 2^n

Eh, "HIT POINTS" and "ENDURANCE" are too long !

Yes they are too long. Wether they can be made to fit is one of the questions that is found as we go along as you mention.

I think most of that is probably possible allready Joramund.

What might be nice is to have : xp_levelnames = { "NEOPHYTE", "NOVICE", "APPRENTICE", "JOURNEYMAN", "CRAFTSMAN", "ARTISAN", "ADEPT", "EXPERT", "a MASTER", "b MASTER", "c MASTER", "d MAS...

Is 15 levels of experience hardcoded?
I added new levels in global.lua
xp_levelnames = { etc
but after archmaster they don't get used.

Two is the right solution because (maybe ) :
If you look at the numbers in binary and do logical and operation

01 & 01 = 01 (one and one equals one)
10 & 01 = 00 (two and one equals none)
11 & 10 = 10 (three and two equals two)

-- A headache makes your magic slower.

Does it now?
Hehe

Another thing...
I think you might have adept and artisan the wrong way round.
Will changing the order in xp_levelnames in global.lua cure it?

Do you get experience for casting spells yet?

Only just found out about this!
Very interesting work Sophia, I guessed you might do something like this.
I'll have to have a look at this lua stuff.

I agree too!

And everyone lived happily, ever after!

You cannot, however, edit dungeons where the text file is not provided.
These cannot be made easier in a satisfactory way.

If somebody could do it for all the RTC graphics once and then make it available somewhere, there would be no need for an export function in the editor.
Are you volunteering cows?
Go on, you know you want to.
