Your posts are too early. Many people respond at 6:00 pm. This post means nothing if you don't read English.

Many weapons and items have requirements for their abilities. Otherwise, a character in DM2 with no fighter ability could use the Vorax's Berserk attack for 100+ damage.

Could someone tell me what the patch does? I can't figure it out. BlueFox, if you have trouble getting the sound to work, try using the HMI driver update at the encyclopaedia downloads. Make sure that DM2 is set up to use the correct kind of sound.

Good for you! Not using Microsoft products for web-interaction! Smart move.

We're off the topic. But it is a GOOD kind of off-topic. Heeheehee!

Well, they do mean CSB for Win, but I guess that some people just dont even think about what they are talking about. What a shame.

Wow. It runs in 2K. That must be a first for video games everywhere. (Windows 2000 SUXXXX!)

[quote="beowuuf"]plus let's faced it it's likely to be running ontop of Windows XP - I'm sure that must factor in somewhere.[/quote] Ouch! Hurtful to Windows fanatics, but very true. Pentiums may be running at 4 ghz today, but how many of them can actually take advantage of that with Windo...

Holy cow!! That's crazy! I'm really amazed! Think of what you could do with that! No-hassle CSB dungeon-customizing. Pair it with CSBEdit and you could almost do whatever you wanted! (Not that you currently can't...)

Well, in today's world, a standard desktop computer runs 1 ghz minimum. (That's what you mean)
Unless you haven't bought a new computer in the last 3 years, yeah, you're screwed. But I would assume most people buy new computers regularly to keep up with new programs.

Slysar says they can be members of the party (meaning they probable just follow you around attacking you). I think he's just trying to start a riot or something. Glops are annoying and ugly.

Yes. Find an alternate unzipping program first. My e-mail upload is very sloooooow. If I were to e-mail an unzipped copy, I would die before it finished uploading to my outgoing mail server. Check out that rarlab website. Works fine for me.

The compass is not used in DM2 to my knowledge, aside from direction-finding. Also, no iron rings or decorations on walls really do anything. I would be interested in testing this because I could probably identify any should-be things in it. I know the DM1 conversion is way off, but I could take tha...

Whoops! That last post was mine. I forgot to log in!

Did it not download? Did your browser try to open it as a file? I have downloaded it sucessfully from the Czech website 3 times... I could e-mail it to you.

Well, you could follow Brian Clevinger's Final Fantasy lineup, in which Red Mage, the most versitile member of the group (but also the sissiest) decides that he should stay in the back (very far back) so as to stay at his peak versatility (meaning he doesn't do any fighting at all...) www.nuklearpow...

I was sort of joking about the boulders-as-weapons comments. Rocks, sure. But boulders? Too draining on the stamina and too difficult to actually throw in th early parts of the game. Slings are nice subs for the bow, but not much beats a Speedbow with Slayer Arrows for damage/distance except Mon Ful...

Play DM2 on a Mac if at all possible! OS 7, 8, 9 , or Classic mode in X! DM2 is easier than CSB by far, and easier than DM1. You gat a town to explore, a small home with the only Altar of VI, and several layers of tower with puzzles (though simple and somewhat unexplained), and fighting off monsters...

I'd like to see somebody's computer play DM2 on any emulation platform and do it smoother or faster than mine :P ! DMJava is very easy to edit, but you lose much of the atmosphere of the dungeon and the gameplay strays from the original (its just the feel, you know?) The lastest CSBWin should have n...

The CSB clone of DM is excellent, as is the RTC version, both for Windows. They run on current operating systems fine. For Dungeon Master 2, playing the Macintosh version on a real Macintosh is best (System 7,8,9, and Classic under X) and the PC version is difficult to run with the smoothness of an ...

Aye, that's the one! Notice the fighting cow jumping upright in the air in the background. Freaking hilarious movie.

Yeah, but not to a very good extent. Look what has been done with DMute. It would be handy to have a format of the dungeons listed just like for DM1.

Hey Paul! I thought that since DM2's dungeon opened up (with some errors) in CSBuild(?), maybe you could start a page about DM2's format on the Encyclopaedia. You're probably busy with CSBWin, and the rest of your life, but the revelation you made while attempting to help me hack my game could be th...

In DM SNES, you are forced to rename your characters if you reincarnate them. The downside is, you only get 5 characters for the name. Ressurected Gothmog is named Gothmog (and the letters are squished together), but if you reincarnate, you hae to chose a shorter, less cool name. I call him Draco or...

Ahh, good. Now you can play custom dungeons without using the wrong graphics set. If you could add in capability to keep all graphics.dat files in the same folder, with different names, and use the signatures alone to determine which file to use, then using multiple custom dungeons would be very easy.

Who's Donnie Darko? Maybe these shows are a bit before my time...

Cursed items can't be removed without dying first, or using a spell or potion that allows them to be removed. That would be cool. Oh, wait. That's not really a spell effect.

Yeah! They are way more dark, and sort of build up to the scary parts instead of just blaring at you. Although Bydlo is about an ox-cart... Dungeon, ox-cart, what's the difference, right?

Now where would that be?
