That´s what I meant, of course, add pictures and stories for the rest of the characters!

Oh, you know, you schould complete the Inn, it is really beautiful!
<p>Komm zur bunten Seite der Macht! </p>

Well, as I´ve already said, I think, it would be enough and not to hard to program, to make just the "begin new adventure compatible to the last version before", or, since v0.18 is almost the same as V.017 to make that tool compatible to V0.16 and V0.18. I think, it wouldn´t take too huge ...

I just want to confirm this.
<p>Komm zur bunten Seite der Macht! </p>

Well, to be honest, I don´t know, and if I knew it is too long ago for me to remember.
<p>Komm zur bunten Seite der Macht! </p>

Pretty cool! Do have similar pictures of other Champions ?
<p>Komm zur bunten Seite der Macht! </p>

If I remeber correctly, the door in the middle of the rat´s level opens, if you pull the lever twice do drop the chest behind the door through the opening pit and close the pit again, then go downstairs to retrieve the green gem and take it upstairs twice to drop it through the pit so it falls behin...

That´s interesting, I always wondered why they looked exactly as AD&D rusters did but didn´t rust. Yet, now that you mention it I think I remeber an early Amiga version wich had some other bugs, where the rusters did do it, but it is such a long time ago, I´m not sure about it anymore... <p>Komm...

Aaaaaaaaaaaaarrrggghh!!!!! George, you really did it. I was always glad, that only the rusters in EOB but not those in DM destroyed equipment, I hate it! It is ok for RTC of course, but please remove it from "Original DM"!

Irregular appearing errors are quite frustrating for a programmer, aren´t they?
<p>Komm zur bunten Seite der Macht! </p>

And after another normal level rising optimizing it jusz happened again with the next character rising. So this error occurs irregular but repeatedly.

I just encountered quite a strange bug for the second time (when I encountered it for the first time I thought, that I had made some mistake myself, but this time I´m sure about it): I was training in the screamer room on Level 4 (Hall-O-Champions = lvl 1). One of my characters got a increase of lev...

Next error of this type: game crashed when I blasted a couatl on level 5 (counting the Hall of Champion as lvl 1) again three tiles away. The error reocured when I reloaded the game and did it again, but when I reloaded once more and killed it at 1 tile distance, game continued normally. I kept that...

So how are experience and level and the increase of stats interconnected in RTC? And how is armor valued in RTC?
Am I right, if I feel, that progress in fighter levels is significantly slower than in original DM?
<p>Komm zur bunten Seite der Macht! </p>

Well RTC is really great and it almost feels like playing DM back then. Yet there is one thing about RTC I´d really like to from you, George: Were you able to read out all details from original DM, like armor protection or level progress, or did you have to guess some details? If so, what details ha...

I had a similar bug in DM v16 (without having picked up the compass): At two different occasions the game crashed when I blasted a worm 3 tiles away.
<p>Komm zur bunten Seite der Macht! </p>

Jup, when taking the compass or looking at it while you face northward in DM Level 3 doesn´t cause a crash, only when the game tries to show the compass-icon of another direction it crashes.

Well, since the spellbook seems very similar to good ol´EOB (which was of course not as fifth as good as DM but was entertaining anyway and did have some nice features) I would suggest to implement the quiver from EOB too. It was a special place in the inventory where up to 99 arrows and only arrows...

Too bad, for compatibility, especially to DMute would have truly expanded the world of DM, but I can understand that you don´t have infinite time. To support you I´ll soon gather some Archmasters armed with great axes to raid the treasure stores of some banks so you don´t have to do unimportant thin...

Yeah, I read on your site that you removed them for that reason. Yet I was always wondering what the theoretically possible maximum stats for unhacked characters were. How inaccurate were the information you had? I´m just interesseted, maybe you can mail them to me anyway, Christophe? <p>Komm zur bu...

Does anyone know

a) how exactly the stats are influenced by reincarnation?

b) how exactly rising a level affects the stats?
<p>Komm zur bunten Seite der Macht! </p>

Nice idea to equip mirror champions with single rune scrolls. Yet this imposes a certain style of spellcasting and a certain order of spell-learning upon you. What about the following idea: Create wall-items behind locks in the uppermost dungeon, for example gem-locks (gem-shaped holes that will con...

Well, I also think that being able to sneak the powered firestaff out of it´s tomb without triggering the alarm was a bug rather than by design, for there is alternative end with Lord Librasulus for the basic firestaff but not for the firestaff in the original game. Yet it was a lovely bug, because...

Oh, I do see all these version as a project in progress and as a great thing too. Yet before I start to play RTC 15 I have to know whether I can convert 15 to 16 for I am very keen playing the RTC CSB with old DM veterans (makes me feel somewhat nostalgic). So, having 2 directories, one with 15 and ...

Since only V0.16 seems to include CSB but only V0.15 is recommended as stable and playable, I´d like to know, in how far these version are compatible with each other, and whether it is possible to port savegames and characters from one version to the other. I´d also like to know, whether there exist...

Ok, forget this topic, I´ve got it. After reinstalling/deinstalling&reinstalling different grafix drivers and asking several people including some friends and a silly hotline from fujitsu I installed win98 over the existing win98 and the bug disappeared, but this reinstalling created several pro...

AAAAAARRGGHHHHH!!!!!

It just came to my notice that ALL my games aren´t running anymore with that same error! I swear it has been that @#%$ windows-update!!! I hate it. So, now try to reinstall same things!
<p>Komm zur bunten Seite der Macht! </p>

It is running in 32 bit (true color) <p>Komm zur bunten Seite der Macht! </p>

That would be strange since all other games work fine and I didn´t encounter that error before. But I´ll reinstall the video driver anyway. Maybe it has something to do with the latest 4in1driver i´ve downloaded frome the VIA site or maybe it´s something with directX (8.1). I´ll try to figure that o...

Sorry that I thought gameplay would be the right place (since I want to play the game :-) ). But if someone moves this topic from here to there I wouldn´t mind. Well, I tried that, changing the entry 640x480x24 to 640x480x32, but the error remains. One funny thing I didn´t have had before: When I tr...
