Oh, look, it's Royou's birthday today, on the 24th of December - wow, that saves you some celebrations during the year, doesn't it? Happy birthday!

Merry Christmas to everyone - calm, peaceful and, of course, with a lot of presents.

Oh, thanks a lot, and to you too, sir!

Right, how far have you got, Royou? I finished my work today for this year and have got more than a week off - in other words, I'm getting back to DM / CSB. I'm currently standing at the "What is under feet is soon over head." I'm really looking forward to this. :P As one great military st...

I don't think your characters will retail their level when you import them into Chaos Strikes Back. What exactly do you mean? They do retain their levels and skills. @Royou: Cool! Keep going! I'm now on the Rat level but have to give up playing for one or two weeks - the real life is getting hideou...

Of course, I knew you'd know it! The very first line of the whole series... I can still see the calm opening with Johnny walking down the forest road to the lake, and the great theme playing...

Oh, cool, a poll! Great idea! Voted! (not sure exactly how it works, I just assigned either + or - to each character, so perhaps that's it, there's no "submit" button?) Chani got my first "+" and, of course, with no doubt and without any hesitation, Mophus got the first "-&q...

Personally, I prefer the CSBWin versions of DM and CSB - they feel most faithful to the originals, have virtually no bugs and are still supported by Paul (thanks, thanks, thanks! :D ). As I said, I've started a new DM go last week with reincarnated Sonya, but I have so little time to play... I'm cur...

So in total it has taken me 265 to 270 hours over a 13 week period. Wow! :shock: You would certainly win the Maximum time spent on training competition! (and, no, I'm not going to participate) Do you realise that even if you were paid the minimum wage you would earn - I believe - something between ...

Archmasters, 1,000 health and stamina and 400 mana on level 2 ? What on Earth is going on here? :) And what do you mean with "training mode"? This is the first time I've seen this version of DM, interesting. What is the shopping cart icon for? :roll: Anyway, welcome to the forums and enjoy...

Hello, Joe, and welcome to the forums! I can't tell you anything about anything software-related, but I like you idea. Your sister is lucky, and good luck to you with your creation! Don't forget to share your progress with us, and, more importantly, your DM-related stories from the past. :) Does tha...

I think Paul fixed the switch in the latest CSBWin version - or at least I remember we discussed it a year or so ago.

I think this door should not be breakable - I mean, that's the whole point of the place, that you might get trapped there, plus there's a tiny switch on a wall that should open it, so, logically, it seems to me that the player is not supposed to be able to break this door down. I think .

Right, so mine was the

- basically a Commanche Maximum Overkill spinn-off, only much worse with an uspeakably ugly graphics. Obviously, I'm running out of good games here .

Which reminded me of this rather horrible and luckily largely forgotten game:

Well, the pollsters have got it badly wrong twice now (Brexit and US Election), and I'm wondering what the sudden decline in reliability is down to. I know polls can and have been wrong, but they're not usually as wide of the mark as this. Well, I think there might be several explanations there, al...

It's

I keep wondering whether all the significant and (subjectively seen) rather nasty stuff that's been happening in the Western societies and politics for several years now -- the "post-truth" era, the decline of traditional media and the increasing strength of various "social" medi...

Bloody hell! This is a nightmare. This shouldn't have happened. Now there's and orangutan as the US president and another one as the UK foreign secretary. I expect to see Russian tanks in the Baltic states by the end of March 2017. I feel physically sick and need a lot of whisky today. PS Sophia, of...

I don't want to go too political and I know I'm asking for troubles, but I'll just say one thing: you, our great friends over the ocean, do not dare to screw it up today . We cannot afford another disaster after the Brexit! Fingers crossed and hoping to wake up tomorrow into a better morning than on...

(...) any requirement that the operands of commutative operations such as addition are guaranteed to be evaluated in any particular order. For a while I thought Paul might actually be Reincarnated Sir Humphrey Appleby from Yes (Prime) Minister :P . Fortunately, the next line fixed it :wink: : But I...

I've never noticed that. I don't know but Max Load is influenced not only by current strength but also by current and maximum stamina (see http://dmweb.free.fr/?q=node/691) so maybe the answer lies there. Dunno.

No, this is not Might and Magic, certainly not. But what is it?

No, that is certainly not Ishar. The graphics is similar, but not the same. I'm still in the dark...

She: "Hold me, like you did by the lake on Naboo; so long ago when there was nothing but our love. No politics, no plotting, no war."

And happy birthday to RAF68!

Right, so my ski-jumping picture was from a game called

That's right!
