Any updates, Kel?

I PMed Kelly with this exact problem about 2 weeks ago. He suggested deleting the contents of the original DM folder and re-installing the updates, which did, in fact, work. I didn't delete anything, though, just to be on the safe side. I moved everything into a back-up folder to save a lot of my cu...

I had the same complaint when I first started out! As beowuuf said, the level gain is much slower for DMJava. There are, however, some fantastic add-on packs done by Kelly here on the forums that increase the default exp gain a bit to be more like the original. If you follow the 2 links in the stick...

All portraits should simply be in the Dungeon Master Jave/Heroes folder. Having them in Heroes/DM won't work. You need to take them out of the DM and just copy them into the main Heroes folder.

How plausible would it be to re-create the other "chest" items like the quiver and the moneybox?

Things are running great, Kelly. The delete and re-install worked out. It also helped tidy up all of the obselete folders! Much easier to locate things now !

Can't wait to see the underwater level!

Much obliged, gents! That worked swimmingly!

I feel like I'm probably overlooking something simple here, but...

How do you prevent an event from happening again? I'm trying to create a one-time only event, but every time my party steps on the square again, the event loads.

Thanks guys!

Ulead worked perfectly, and I was also able to rip a ton of floor graphics from RTC thanks to your help!

When I do that, though, I'm losing the animations. How do I keep them?

Thanks, Kelly.

I'm willing to put the work in myself because I'm interested in learning how to do it.

I've installed RTC. What's a good untility for getting the actual images from the DAT files- I'm assuming thats where they are coded.

Hey guys. I'm using DMJEditor and I'm looking to use some custom items from older versions of Dungeon Master like the Tech Armor, Flame Armor, and things like that. I'm taking the graphics from the DM Encyclopaedia. The graphics on the page are animated, but they are too small. When I try to resize ...

Just checkin on the Exp modifiers, Kelly. The level exp modifiers are just multiples, correct? In other words, by changing the exp modifier to 3 instead of 1, it would multiply all exp gained by 3 on that particular dungeon level? Also, how does one view the config file changes you included, such as...

Kelly, Ridiculous work! Absolutely fantastic! I am salivating :wink:. Now I don't have to worry about compensating for the default low-exp gain! I really hope I can make a dungeon that will do justice to all your hard work! Are you going to hard code the fireplace and bookcase as wall switches for t...

Kelly,

Is the .exe file up you mentioned up, or are you still working out the kinks? I can't seem to find it.

Ian, I've never played that far into the default dungeon, but there are graphics for a "ku sword" and a "ros bow" (each has a yellow and a purple version that looks almost like a glowing sword or bow). My guess would be that you found, say, the purple verion of the weapons and by...

Thanks Kelly! That's going to have to be the way as, much to my chagrin, I've found that individual door files are not overridden in the other map folders... As long as you're in there, I'm trying to find a way to use the weapon and armour shop decors that you included in your additional map files. ...

Kelly, Ian, I've got everything up and running and its working great! Thanks for all your help with the add-ons! This looks like a ridiculous amount of work and I don't want to seem ungrateful at all, but I was wondering if there was a way to code the door-wizard class files to allow custom door ima...

Thanks for the help. Kelly. FYI there are still 2 folders of class files in your add-on pack. I'm assuming they're both the same!

I've got the old spell list for the original game from DM Encyclopaedia, but weren't there a few that didn't work in DM Java as well as a few new ones?

Does anyone have a complete DM Java spell list?

Thanks! I'll see if I can find it!

I have to say- the amount of help I've gotten so far on this message board has been excellent. I figured with such an old and obscure game that I would be waiting weeks for some responses. Fantastic.

Hey people. I'm trying to make some custom items using some of the item graphics from the DM encyclopedia. The problem I'm running into is that the picture files from the encyclopedia are about half the size they would need to be. I'm using mspaint and I can resize them, but it adds a brown backgrou...

Kelly, I downloaded a few add-on packs: I used the executable new graphics file and the Add-on 0.3 from Germanny's site, and I got the "New Files" download from the freeweb link. Is there a special order I should overwrite the class files in? Also, the add-on 0.3 has 2 sets of class files-...

Hey Everyone... I've recently decided to undertake making my own dungeon with the editor that came with DM Java... The only thing I'm having trouble with is assigning levels and stats to my created champions. Let's say I want to make a champion. What should his base stats be (ballpark numbers)? If I...

I've been using the editor for DM Java and I'm trying to create a champion with the "Conjure Ful Bomb" ability... I added it, but in a normal game, I can't seem to find out how to actually use it? I don't even see it as on option anywhere...
