PaulH did a Sci-Fi dungeon in CSBWin, I think it's Black Flame...it has Discotroopers and light sabres and Darth Vader and stuff in it, though I've not played it yet myself. I'll download your dungeon now and give feedback when I've played it .

Well I've played it...I presume I got to the end of what you've done so far because I couldn't find any possible way on - there is no way to open the "Halls of Infinity" door and I couldn't get any further on in the "It will be your guide and your death" bit with the Fireballs...I followed them as far as they'd go and then they would just keep exploding in the square next to me and not leading me anywhere, though I tried exploring further but kept getting teleported back to the start. It's pretty good so far and often kind of "Ooh, new place, dum de dum...aarrrrghh dragon wtf eek run run run phew...argh a door argh this argh that..." hehe. I died once at the start of the dungeon but that was it I think.
Look forward to seeing more of it .

The fireball wall supposed to go through the wall and lead to a manic fireball chase!!!!! The above version is the fixed demo version. I cant believe how many revisions Im having to make even on demo's. From now on I promise to playtest more throughly before bunging my Dungeons up.

Hmm nope, it's no different . Maybe you forgot to save it or something? The RTC Editor doesn't ask if you want to save it when you press the close button, it just quits.

Maybe I should just go tighten up a noose, and leap to my death!

Lol don't worry, I've fooked up loads of dungeons in the past...at least yours will compile and you get a chance to upload them for other people to have a go at .
I should get on with my dungeon atm...I'm working on my comic atm though.

I would very much like to play your dungeon Ameena, my turn to playtest! And get lost and puzzled in a new dungeon, and select cool characters and all those other great things that come with starting a new unknown dungeon.

Yeah but you'll have at least a few months to wait...when I can actually be arsed to get on with it, it'll take ages .
Anyway...carry on with your dungeon and get the bugs out of it so the rest of us can play it .

Yes its that holy grail of dungeon making, a demo for people to play, and then to recieve feedback, so that game may change.
Enjoy (or try to anyway)

AH god bless you Mr.beowuuf!
I thought I'd lost my treasured Arcane Study forever, it is a really early version so I have lost like 10 levels of intense storyline based dungeon, but at least i have somewhere to start again.
Woo hoo!
edit:
I havent actually got the arcane.txt file that i need to upload onto the RTC editor, doh!!!
Is there anyway to convert an .RTC thingy into a .TXT thingy????
Cheers

No - not at all if its after V0.35 (this is by design to stop people cheating!).DMDM wrote:Is there anyway to convert an .RTC thingy into a .TXT thingy????
Having said that, I can load the RTC file into a debugger and dump as much stuff out as possible into a TXT format. This won't get everything, but it'll be better than nothing.
Let me know if you want me to have a go at this for you!
Sophia's method however is much better if it works for you - although again, you won't get everything back, but about 90% is better than nothing again!
Perhaps the "decompile" facility could be restored to the RTCEditor but make it prompt for a password - rather like the dungeon key system CSBWin uses to stop peeking?
The real answer is of course for designers to take regular backups. I backup all my important PC files to my MP3 player once a week - it's really fast using USB2. This saved my butt when my old PC suddenly died a few weeks ago. I had taken a backup the day before so I didn't lose much. However I hadn't backed up the dungeons I had downloaded but not got round to playing yet, which included Arcane Study.
So the version on the link is an early beta then, is it still worth playing? Was it the most recent version uploaded? If not someone may have a newer one on their hard drive.

the version that is up for download at the moment is REALLY old. If anyone has a later version and can post it up I will be eternally greatful !!!!!!!!!
p.s. The current version is a rather feeble 9kb in size!

Re: The Arcane Study Revamp (RTC)
I'm currently gathering every information available about what custom dungeon was made with what engine/editor version and I also try to create a backup of all dungeons and source files available.
The Arcane Study I got seems to be for RTC V0.33. Can anyone confirm that it was created entirely in V0.33 and ne newer version is available?
DMDM: Would you maybe willing to provide the source files for backup purposes? Of course you'd still decide alone whether they would be released publicly or whether they would be backupped nonpublicly only.

Re: The Arcane Study Revamp (RTC)
I think i m also having troubles with this one, becuz all the buttons i have come so far cannot be pressed.
Is this intended to be like this or has it to do with a version conflict?
Any help would do
thx

Re: The Arcane Study Revamp (RTC)
If I remember you have to use an object to push any buttons, don't know why. Just hold an object in your action hand and push it against the buttons or levers.

Might have been an old activation issue, or the use of a wrong ob_by
