just in case you didn't know

chiefyDUNGEON is up since Beowuff kindly hosted it on his site, thanks Michael !!!

what is the point of all these a, b, c sub number references then? they seem unnecessarrily complicated to bother with, if we don't actually need them surely :wink: Andyboy, I checked out your guide to writing dungeons m8! 8) that sure is a respectable achievement squire, top work indeed I like the ...

Yep, that's it exactly. And RUST_TO does the same thing for objects that can be rusted; you specify what you want the rusted object to turn into; the default for this is simply a pile of rust. Gambit is there an example of this in the DM, CSB .txts sounds fun, could you give a couple of examples pl...

you can program the various locks in your DUNGEON to accept a picklock alongside the key that is intended to unlock the door you simply add an 'a' line number e.g 2345 wall_item_lock ruby_key 2345a wall_item_lock picklock the actual example is not containing the right words but you get the picture w...

how about F10 to save a screenshot to the desktop? that would be ace

one thing that amazed me whilst I was playing DM (and my own dungeon) was the amount of STEREO sound routed in - viz gates opening that change sound direction as you move, that is top work George

if I had to criticise I'd say that her second arm appears "missing" somehow, but apart from that, the water looks good enough to swim in right now!

the former

there are plenty of sites which don't conform to cableTV internet

THIS?

in our life time ?

I particularly like the warnings and critical errors that are listed into a notepad for you each time your RTC is run these are actually superbly helpful and are so good when you first start editing dungeons because they will literally tell you what's happening by the time I had finished my chiefydu...

I have just finished reading THE BEAST by A.E van VOGT TOP SCI FI book that ! :D Now I'm half way through Sharpe's TIGER: Sharpes TIGER has Sharpe as a private in the British army at the siege of Seringapatam, India in 1799 The infamous Sgt Hakeswill legendary in the TV series is depicted well in th...

what I'd recommend is that you clone the stiars and pits and replacee the graphics with red ones and use those objects on the levels with red wallsets, and the original ones on the other levels. clone the stairs and pits? yikes! I think I'll leave that to ppl with the inclination and skill! :oops: ...

Hey Michael, thanks v much for being such a GENT mister! :wink: I hope a few ppl will enjoy the ChiefyDungeon but whether they do or not, I am very grateful to you for being so generous! What a top bloke indeed! EDIT by Lunever: Backup Download: http://cid-5af78f9a064bada7.skydrive.live.com/self.asp...

hey you guys, never come across "access violation error then?" ok, I don't know the reason, but I have a working theory consider the case of a dungeon editor guy, with no upload to the internet :( he has only a CD-R to send a m8. the m8 loads up the CD-R and plays the dungeon but hold on, ...

Lunever how the heck was that coded in?
trigger=when knights corner=open movable

now that I have tested my dungeon thoroughly through the compiler and have 0 critical errors, I have a good RTC file created I have inserted it with the DM_Original CSB and DM files, so that my ChiefyDungeon can be selected from the list All goes well for the first 30 minutes play, then unexpected a...

this whole magic book thing is unclear to me, could somebody please explain it briefly ? I have placed the book into my "dungeon" and the champions resurrected, can cast any spells they "know already" without coming across the book if they don't find the book, then they just go a...

I'm lost, what're you guys talking about ?

I see runes displayed in scrolls, please say how your Gor update can be used practically speaking

Dungeon master features plenty of classic creatures, red dragons, vipers, worms, wizard-eyes, trees, ghosts flippin heck, SUPERB ! but which are the DUFFS, the creatures that just shouldn't have made it in ? I nominate the crap top half of a dalek that fades in and out and simply just "bumps&qu...

I have a deadline of 16 Apr and you will have it before then beowuff I am just playtesting it a little more, as I would be gutted to send it and then someone find a portcullis one row too far over (like I just found 5 minutes ago ! :( ) nightmare the best part so far (for me) was when I set up a lev...

too true, no search of "monster_lord_order" will succeed but try "wallitem_outside" instead and a slick graphic shows the lord himself standing "outside" the dungeon entrance

Jardice, Beowuuf handmade dungeons ? what could you get in "hand made" dungeons that is not possible with .txt RTC dungeons ? please give an example Jardice thanks for the answer on the "zoo confinement" because there is no teleporter "buzz" or "haze," that is...

how is the game going to save from disc ?

the program will attempt to save the "game save" onto the disc
as this is impossible, anybody playing from disc cannot "save"

it's just asking too much

as for a fountain with bad water, nice one but have you come across "murky water" ? (in flasks)

it's perfectly the same as clear water for all purposes but looks different enough to be quite a surprise the first time around eh ?

Gambit yeah I know how you feel but if George hasn't done enough already, here we are asking for more I have often wished that pressing F10 would display the x,y,z coordinates of your tile while you're "in" your compiled dungeon (play testing it) but I'm really happy to be able to "ed...

Am I right that there is a maximum limit of 200k on any RTC dungeon to be uploaded ? If so, that limit is awesome, I have so far used 99k and have achieved 12 levels of varying sizes, flippin' huge to 10 x 3 has anybody come close to the 200k limit ? It's a good size in my opinion the size of the RT...

who the heck is lord Order ? no idea the grey lord is a real hoot to put into your game though he just stands there, doesn't move or fight, zilch, just smiles :-) you've "resorted back" to text editing ? how is what you're doing "better" than text editing anyway ? I've been dunge...

beowuff
yeah I had not put in any triggers
same problem I had on the shooters too
thanks for that, all sorted now

yeah I remember that Knightmare programme on TV, I watched it a few times, the main team member had to put a large helmet on that covered his whole face, quite good for a while but OSBOURNES is tons better I reckon ! anybody seen these OSBOURNES ? the language is pretty crude by all in the family bu...

as you guys know, there is a huge central staircase in DM that is accessed plenty by skeleton keys right... down down down the bottom of the staircase is a final locked door, 'winged key' opens it I THINK well I finished DM, fused chaos BUT never found the winged key, or saw what was behind this doo...
