Cheat mode:
Nonsense. Someone is pulling your leg.
I saw it on several sites: French, English, Polish, etc. But, maybe it is for Amiga version. But I believe you. You are an expert of this game.
Otherwise, I do not find a cheat for to have invulnerable champions for to check CSBwin.
For Dungeon Master VO and VF. I found on your site, backups (save) of invincible champions.
In the next room are teleporters that confuse your.
The scroll says to "Trust me. Go straight forward with faith. I will guide you."
Thank you. Because I did not understand.

Scroll text fixed in CSBwin 16.6.
Scroll text lines should be separated by '\n'.  Example: "FIGHTERS\nCHARGE"
I will investigate wall texts.

Cheat:

Unfortunately, it only just pure invention. This was originally published in ST Action magazine (UK) as an April Fools joke written by Nick Clarkson who was the editor of the magazine. Many other magazines and web sites reproduced it without actually checking that it worked. Below are some examples.

I updated to CSBwin 16.6 to fix several of your problems.

Last night, I made a new installation for today. And I thought the sound had changed. It is why I asked you this question.
But, today I tried with both games (CSBwin and CSBwin16_5). Sound is same.
I must have been tired last night.

1) WRONG RIGHT LEFT
2) VALUE IN EXCHANGE FOR VALUABLES
3) LAUNCH IT CATCH IT SNATCH IT (J'ai traduit par : LANCE ATTRAPPE VOLE [I translated:])
4) SUPPLIES FOR THE QUICK
5) GIVE UPx PULL THE LEVER
6) FIGHTERS CHARGE (J'avais traduit pour le rouleau : "L'ADDITION POUR LES GUERRIERS". Mais, il y a une inscription au mur. Je voulais traduire : "EN AVANT LES GUERRIERS"" ou "A L'ASSAUT LES GUERRIERS" [I translated for this Scroll: "L'ADDITION POUR LES GUERRIERS". But, there is an inscription on the wall. I wanted to translate: "EN AVANT LES GUERRIERS"" or "A L'ASSAUT LES GUERRIERS"].
Thanks.

Pretty hard, because of double meanings, ambiguities and tricks. If not impossible because of no equivalent in french.
Vachement dur, à cause de doubles sens, ambituités, astuces. Si pas impossible car aucun équivalent en français.
One must understand the tricks for a right translation, playing the game and guessing the authors intentions.
So, if you or other players can give details about the meanings of these short sentences, it would help for a hopefuly right translation.
1 Wrong right left. Veut aussi dire "Faux, il reste à droite".
2 Value in exchanges for valuables. "Valeur en échange de valeurs" As in english value can mean some people's value ( level in DM ) or worthwhile objets.
3 Lance le attrappe le arrache le.
4 Des fournitures pour les rapides.
5 Abandone tire le levier. Ou "Tire l'échelle"
6 I think, the best is: A l'assaut les guerriers

Oui, tu as raison. Je joue à DM1 version française pour voir les parchemins, les objets et autres pour harmoniser les deux jeux. (Yes. I play DM1 VF for to see scrolls, objects and more for to harmonize the two games.)
3 Lance le attrappe le arrache le.
Le problème ici. C'est le "LE", car ça peut être "LA". (Problem here. It is "LE" because it can be "La".)

I thank you.
I did not know there was a French version on Amiga. It is weird, because on the Atari version (DM1), "TU" is used. And on Amiga version, "VOUS" is used.
Fixes the translation of potions when clicked

It is perfect.
These Scrolls are good:
374 "FIGHTERS\nCHARGE" "COMBATTANTS\nCHARGEZ"
375 "PRAY\nFOR A\nMIRACLE" "PRIE POUR\nUN MIRACLE"

This scroll is not good:
376 "HOLY ONE\nSTEP FORWARD\nWITH PURPOSE\nAND TRUST THAT\nI WILL GUIDE\nYOU THROUGH\nTHE PURGATORY\nTHAT AWAITS."

Everything is perfect.
I wanted to check CSBwin. But I have a problem.
I play with CSBwin without new "CSBwin and translation" files.
I make this team (to see screenshot):

Image

8. Skelar
16. Slogar Webber Of Arachnia
21. Algor Marsh Hunter

I want "23. Lor Champion Of Good" in my team. I kill all mummies. But the door remains closed or the portrait has disappeared. It is not possible to engage"Lor". But I can engage "24. Kazai Shadow Warrior."
It is normal?

I do not find: "XXXXBONES" ("ALGORBONES" for example)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Little details:
French letters (é, à, ç, etc) are not in "error" text (see screnshot).
You can reverse these words (see screnshot)?

Image

PATRON GUERRIER ==> GUERRIER PATRON
ADEPTE NINJA ==> NINJA ADEPTE
EXPERT MAGE ==> MAGE EXPERT
MAITRE ^ DRUIDE ==> DRUIDE MAITRE ^

If It is possible.

About Lor and Kazai.
The normal game behavior is:
You can hire one of them, not both.
Once you have hired one of them, you cannot open the door of the other one.
