That shouldn't be difficult to do if we can find the colour offsets in the correct files, but neither Dungeon.dat nor Graphics.dat seem willing to give up their secrets. maybe palette info is hardcoded into the EXE? I've messed about with graphics.dat a bit but haven't managed to do anything useful ...

This is amazing!!! How on earth did you find all this out???

I've been messing around with DM and found out some info about the colour palettes used. There are 32 colours used in the game. Imagine this as two rows of 16 colours.

It supposedly absorbs the dragon's fireballs - but I've never stood in front of one for long enough to find out! That was the original plan for it anyway - but FTL did not include code for several of the items in the game, and this is one of them. Others include the ruster (level 9 creature) which i...

Looks like I got all the stuff off there just in time....! The DM2 ADFs were in German anyway, and that was one of the few games I couldn't download, so you haven't missed anything. Got a working copy of Amiga Captive from there, though
