Updated version to alpha 18 with champions positioning within party which makes the main interface complete. http://dmbuilder.sphenxmusics.fr/external/dcs/dcs_20200516.png Each "game" can be downloaded on separate packages: Dungeon Master : http://dmbuilder.sphenxmusics.fr/external/dcs/spx...

Thanks Christophe; the problem was with my graphics.dat, although I was able to extract by other tools ... So then I confirm there is no problem with DM2GDED for that. Interesting stuff that there is a third "shield-capsule" item to summon a U-Haul Minion. It is not even in the beta. The P...

Thanks for the files; looks quite the same as PC-DOS demo, and plenty of stuff is cut out of it. But I am still confused, even from the rev10 (dated 2016-08-21) from the release 2016-12-31, I cannot open any PC-9801 graphics.dat file. I am missing something here ... either the exe or the dat file. C...

Noted, it's about some controls present in DM2GDED and I already checked before that the PC-9801 won't open with it. Other extractions method will work. I was not aware about a demo version for PC-9801. Do you happen to have the extracted versions of graphics.dat and dungeon.dat ? The PC-9801 seems ...

On GitHub we can have public or private repos. Skwin is on public here. But we could set up others repos for private. About SKWin EN/JP versions : the PC9821 version comes with 2 different graphics.dat, on versioned 4.0d and the other 4.0.1. They are both supposed to be run in japanese, but the 4.0d...

Quick update, I certainly need to update my dev environment as I was not able to compile DM2GDED nor DMDC2 -- I even doubt I ever compiled them successfully before, as I was mainly working on the DM2 engine. I got SKwin compile again which is a good thing and I am now checking the situation. I actua...

Yes this is really not optimized for old notebooks -- nor optimized at all :roll: I have tried myself on a HP mini which is the same class as the NC10 and I also get bad results and "white squares". I suppose it is related to OpenGL and graphics memory, as these notebooks might not have en...

It has been a while I did not work on skwin -- at some point because I had some HDD failure then issues with my dev environment a couple of years ago ... But I should be able to find working copies of the project and rebuild at the point where we were. Short answer: it is not yet complete. The DM2 d...

I digressed again. Maybe some will recognize that :



This is a special alpha 17 version to download.
This map is about 12 times a standard map of DM.

OK thanks Christophe, so it appears that all options (move / delete) actually work when the message is opened.

I get since several days this message "The submitted form was invalid. Try submitting again." whenever I want to move or delete messages from my inbox. I am not sure why this happens and can't find a way to solve this.
Is someone having the same issue ? What to do when this happens ?
Thanks

Updated version to alpha 16 Fixed global position of all zones to allow proper window resizing + fullscreen mode. There is a new settings file to enable/disable this fullscreen mode. That version also contains the EOB and BW test levels. http://dmbuilder.sphenxmusics.fr/external/dcs/dcs_20200416_dm....

Version updated (alpha 15)
Damage done and received is now shown.

There is a specific executable to start in the Arena.
Besides, any idea of other 3D crawlers I could play with ?

Other champions are roaming the Arena.

Hi Sophia, I was hoping for something like that ! 6fps is a really good choice, but 640x480, really ? I would not choose more than 320x240. Is there an extra to have the CRT shader ?

If wonder if clones could implement some kind of emulation of the effect, to stretch the output vertically and add some scanlines for that true retro feel;-) Certainly possible; I think we already discussed the CRT effect through this forum about "You have to win the game" / "Super w...

Version updated (alpha 14) with items weights taken into account.

A small updateto have the inventory at a better place.
Still working on next features.

Hi, here is a new alpha release. ( DCS-Alpha.zip 28 MB) I worked on a basic save / load function, which is rather essential to have but this took me quite a long time, as it actually required many internal changes, and I broke much code while doing this ... Not everything is yet in the savegame file...

The endgame on one of them (I believe) was irritating (kill hag, she becomes a more powerful being, kill that and eventually an invulnerable?). May have the wrong series but you'd know. LOL! I mean Lands of Lore (which is technically a continuation of EOB engine). You had to figure how to prevent S...

I'm carrying on tests with another game: Eye of the Beholder. http://dmbuilder.sphenxmusics.fr/external/dcs/dcs_eob_20191208.png Playable version for first level here : http://dmbuilder.sphenxmusics.fr/external/dcs/spx-DCS-EOB.zip ( ~ 13 MB , 66 MB uncompressed). I am not able (yet) to decipher the ...

Yes I did. Here is a result of fixed view (there is more of side wall) http://dmbuilder.sphenxmusics.fr/external/dcs/dcs_bw_20191110.png I also made a special version where you can adjust head position / rotation and Y FOV, if you want to play with it. http://dmbuilder.sphenxmusics.fr/external/dcs/s...

And here is the link for this special package dmbuilder.sphenxmusics.fr/external/dcs/spx-DCS-BW.zip (~ 10 MB, ~ 200 MB uncompressed) The first level is playable, the other are accessible though. There are still some glitches but the main part is here - except specific communication system and spell ...

Hi, just for fun, a quick attempt for a remake:
http://dmbuilder.sphenxmusics.fr/extern ... oMarch.mp3

I've updated with an 8th iteration.
Items and weapons actions are generally usable.
Lights are now adjusted by the player's current light level. You need to cast light as you start in the dark.

It seems to be down since a few years.
There is still an archive from 2015-2016

Really interesting, thanks for the link!
And just in case you wondered like me how to change the level ... it's the slider on the bottom-left.
