Dungeon Master Forum

Hi, That would be nice. May I suggest a few points to consider: I'd put the game design on paper first. The original code has been reverse-engineered, yes, there are clones which implement their own rules, yes. But you need to put down on paper the game design. I wouldn't start coding until all game...

Hi there, I worked on DMJ a few years ago to refactor the code. Porting DMJ to Android is totally doable but it's quite a lot of work. Thing is you would have to recode the GUI entirely because it's not the same API. You also would have to recode access to resources (pics, sounds, etc). The main pro...

Thanks Linflas, I'll get back to you later about that (still a lot of low level code to do...).

I really didn't know that DM/CSB have been so tweaked regarding the graphic rendering.

By 5x3.4x2, do you mean width x height x length ? If yes, I understand that the cubes are sized according to the camera position, which makes sense. I was about to start a 3d renderer prototype to later replace the DMJava original 2d one, you just made me save a lot of time on this perspective stuff...

So that "cube" looks more like a 5x5x4 box. Is that about right? you're right, it's not a cube. it's a 5x3.4x2 box !!! :shock: in fact the whole scene is not possible in 3D, but it works perfectly to make 2D bitmaps :) Hi Linflas, Could you elaborate on that ? I don't understand the issue...

Rich naked women are harder to find, you know. I'll see what can be done. After all, if I'm famous and rich... Hold on, I've got Robbie Williams on the phone, we should work out something. [...] Do you mind if those women are famous too ? Robbie is telling me about a blond chick that used to be with...

Hi! What you mention is exactly the reason why i have done those gfx for DMJ. Unfortunately DMJ is off development and no one is willing to fix some issues... this is really bad! That is not true. I'm working on it. Do you mind if I use your GFX ? We sure should find a mutual arrangement, i.e. fame...

Good progress currently. I hope to have a beta for the end of the year.

What about this ?

Thanks ! Good stuff for my project

Instanced dungeon . . . of course. I don't know why that didn't occur to me. Lots of online games are starting to use this concept, with generally positive results. Yes, I think it's the way to go. I'll try that, stay tuned. So, are you thinking max four characters per dungeon, then? Like StarCraft...

I think each player controlling only one character is the best approach because it promotes cooperation, even if it doesn't enforce it, and DM is all about party cohesion (unless you play solo, of course, in which case it's about eating all the food you want and hording all the equipment). That is ...

Hi, I'm thinking about the way a multiplayer DM could work and I could use a hand. I think there's two main way to do it: each player controls its own party, comprised of 1 to 4 characters. To cope with the space problem (narrow corridors, movement and stuff), parties are allowed to share the same p...

Hey, another frog ! Welcome Ludo. In which city do you live ?

All my sympathy to londoners. That is a sad day.

The Pink Floyd gig was awesome. I wish I was an english.

Mmmh... don't know what to think about that.

Does Wayne realize how much impact he had on our youth ? With great power comes great responsibility.

He uses the force ! The kicking force !

Yeah, meant kick

Are you a) Female b) Single c) Reasonably attractive d) Rich. If at least three of these apply, I'm sure we can work something out...

a) No. But when I had long hair, some people mistaken me for a girl.
b) I'm not married.
c) I think so.
d) It depends on the day of the month.

I never unserstood the dislike of subtitles on film -- once you get in to the habit of them, it doesn't detract from the film and can actually enhance it. I watch a lot of French films, but I don't understand French -- so subtitles are essential, but I would prefer to hear the original dialogue too...

Maybe he is very touchy about it and can kiss asses hard.

Hi,

This is a rewritting of DMJava to allow multiplayer and other stuff. I'll have a hard time keeping the save files compatible.

Hi, Currently working on DMul (Dungeon Master Multiplayer), I'm thinking about implementing a script language to create simple movies, like the ones you typically see at the beginning of DMJava. For the time being, I recognized some basic commands that allow to recreate the DMJava introduction movie...

We can't be too proud, we are the best.

Florent wrote: The main problem is : why dubbing in the first place ? Why not just rely on subtitles ?

Ask U.S. people why. They are really against subtitles whereas in Paris, my favorite multiplex theater has 90% of movies subtitled... and I'm glad it does.

Computer is from a latin word, did you know ? And this isn't proudness at all. The quotas of french music on french radios is to try to protect the french music market. I don't know if it works, and don't listen to a lot of french music (more into post-rock and 70s stuff), but I can understand the l...
