There's a new version to come?
Maybe I will then give UD another try and follow the advise to use just two characters. My favourite would be Elektra and Faahn.

I made some progress and am now in a small room with two exits. Each of the exits has two auto-closing doors in a row. They close once the party is on the tile with the door. Many of such doors are in this dungeon... Both exits lead to areas which seem to hold a lot of creatures. I did not yet have ...

- Strange you should have approriate rune to cast lightning at vixirk level I would not know how. Behind the vexirk level with the scroll saying they could only be killed by lightning, there comes a corridor and then the fire room where you need to sacrifice four items. Only then the door opens and...

...short time later...

guys, just ignore the scroll saying vexirks could only be killed by lightnings. Bring a sword and some patience, the vexirks can be chopped down. Also grants an extra fighter level or two

I gave it also a try yesterday, but did not yet finish it. Open topics at the moment are... ...the two topaz locks in the underwater level and the spider level ...RA lock outside of the dungeon ...black door on the spider level ...second solid key at the pit with a rock pile behind ...the vexirk roo...

Clone the damage tile. Call it whatever you want, then set up two action mechanics... with ACTION_OBJECT_ACTIVATE in one and ACTION_OBJECT_DEACTIVATE in the other, and your cloned damage tile as ‘Object 1’ in both. Have the relay loop activate them at your desired timing, and they should switch on/...

Also, how is the damage started? Via a floor trigger? If so, which OpBy are you using? DAMAGE_BYMONSTER should work for the whole party if the trigger is set with a ‘Each Living Party Member’ OpBy. I have a floor trigger which activates a relay. The relay then activates the damage and itself again ...

I did not see a party_bymonster action, at least not in the list of the wallitems in the action category. Am I looking at the wrong place? Damage tiles on the floor, activated in a loop by relays, actually work. But they also damage creatures. What I could do is giving each square it's own relay, ac...

Did anyone yet try to build an area in which the whole party takes damage continuously?
With a relay activating a damage_bymonster action in a loop I can deal damage to the party leader, but not to all characters at once.
And a damage item on the floor just deals damage when the party is moving.

Ah, so I need to get a later version of Dmute firtst.
Thanks, DMute 1.3 does not yet have this option.

I expect the answer will be "no"... but I will ask anyway
Is there an "easy" way to convert a dmute dungeon to an RTC dungeon, without completely rebuilding it in RTC?

I don't remember exactly how to open the gates with Goro behind. Some wooden doors in the dungeon can be bashed with weapons or spells, however.
I played UD quite a while, but then gave up at the Rainbow mines.

Cul-de-Sac = Sackgasse

Do you know if creatures in DM2 can recover lost health? I remember that the manual stated something like that, but I never found out if that really happens. As DM2 is lacking tough creatures like golems or dragons, the common creature simply does not live long enough to recover, I guess. On the oth...

I noticed something strange.
When I play CSB with CSBwin, everythings works normal.
But playing DM, my characters don't get levels.
I wondered if I had to switch on DM rules in this situation, but nothing changed.

Did you find Goro in the second part of Helga's dungeon? A second party member makes the ogre battle a lot easier. Having a full party can however be a drawback later in the game due to food management. Somewhere near the entrance to the ogre village there's a small passage passing a corner and lead...

Actually, there are not too many exits from the first forest. There's the gate guarded by Furion. You will not be able to open that by now. Then there's a locked door leading to the Fairy village. Don't bother about that as well at the moment. And, we have the entrance to Helga's dungeon. That's the...

Thanks, Saumun

where can i found the next part of this game? Currently, there is no sequel. But there are two prequels. First, there's "Upside down", where you play Sasuke, the guild master of the thieve's guild. It's a puzzle based dungeon built around reversing gravity. Second, there's Underworld drea...

I don't know the RTC version of EOB, but in the original EOB fighting the Dwarves was not needed and not intended. They just kept stying in place and doing nothing as long as you did not attack them.
In fact, you needed the Dwarves to help you solve some quests.

Hi Saumun,

will there be a part 2?

Just for my curiosity... what can you do if Elektra dies? You have to medidate at a circle to revive characters, and the others cannot initiate a meditation... I did not send savegames to anyone. But maybe sometime later I'll try the game again with less then four characters. I would prefer Faan ins...

I had all four characters. Including a very limited Zuus. After finishing the cloud castle and getting young again, he had only 20 mana.

I don't remember exactly, I played this section a long time ago... but I know that I could not make it again through the gems section without the gems. Maybe I should check again :) I also heard rumors about mirrors on the bottom level but did not find them. But the items you can find there are wort...

Not possible to undo this decision.
As I posted, I wiped UD from my disk. At that very moment it helpded a lot to get my mind clear

I never found the Pumpkin game :( Using the Gor coins, you cen get interesting stuff on the bottom level of the dungeon (boots of speed for example), but I never explored everything that can be done with the coins. I also guess there are more coin slots on the bottom level than gor coins in the game...

As I am not the youngest anymore, speed tests are the hardest part of the game for me. There was a place in Upside down where deadly traps where both in the floor and the ceiling of a longer passage. The traps were toggled each two seconds or so. So you had to cast the gravity revert at the correct ...

The GOR rune is inside the library , but not behind that door. To get the GOR rune, you do something with the books. Prove that you are a good reader :) The key to the door can be found in the graveyard. There's a grave with an iron grate which cannot be opened. So you have to enter the grave from ...

Normally you don't have to do that.
There's a map of the maze, devided into two scrolls, hidden withn the maze. Look for fake walls.

Tried for another hour.
Still no idea or progress.
Totally clueless for days.
Got overwhelmed by own temperament.
Wiped dungeon from the disk.
Sorry Gillian, I cannot save you from the Dream castle

Thanks for that, now got some cookies and returned to the mines. I made my way to the ring teleports... but unfortunately not across them. I guess it's a simple speed test, and you have to place a crystal into the alcove with the "get rid of your bother" message? At least I did not find a ...
