Dungeon Master Forum

Hmm... Well thanks for your reply. I think. You seem rather down on the idea. Whatever. Anyone else have something positive to say? Ho hum drum is the mood here? Bah humbug? You are all stuck in the past. DM is great, sure. Now see how almost all modern RPG's piss on the genre to dumb it down for th...

I very much want to see a modern game in the Dungeon Master theme and design. I've played Age of Conan, The Elder Scrolls IV and others.. None of them do it. They all feel like dumbed down RPG games to me. But I like to see elements in the latest games that remind of what a Dungeon Master inspired d...

The developers decided not to release an MDK becauise they're arrogant and don't want anyone messing with their game. I guess they can kiss longevity and future sales goodbye. Still, I have played through the entire game like four times. I just wish so much I could use more than the wrench, conside...

Yes Tom that's the one!! Thanks! /crossing fingers for the MDK!

Yeah Suule! Also the ice level is really cool. DM never did ice like that but I think it is perfect for a DM-like game. Also the bump mapping makes for great looking rocks. Lots of rocks in DM! :) In one spot there is what I think is a small homage paid to DM. There is a flame coming out of a pit. I...

Yes thanks. Yes when/if the MDK is released, I intend to make a DM level or two. I think the engine is fantastic for this kind of game. I don't know much coding though (been 17 years since I did 68k asm) but maybe some of the DM stuff can be put in there like the movement style, etc. 'Levels first' ...

Thanks Tom & beowuuf. For those of you who might want to see what I'm talking about.. The free Bioshock demo doesn't show the Dungeon Master influences very much at all. It's only once you enter the fisherman's wharf and also the the tree level (Arcadia?) that the DM similariites start to show. ...

Been playing Bioshock (the new game by 2k games) and there are areas in the game that remind me of the Dungeon Master series. Especially how the vertically scrolling doors work but also the often squared-off level design. It's been a long time since I've had a DM feeling in a commercial game. 2kgame...

Thank you for providing more information. You forgot to say what folder to extract the Cow's wallset into. I presume it is the Maps folder. I think I did overwrite the maps directory. Are there duplicate file names? Which should I keep? Why not use your files over the default DMJ 1.05? If I can't ov...

Okay I unrared the archive into an entirely separate folder and then manually copied the folders over. What does this do exactly? There's no descriptive web page or text file saying what your archive does exactly, point by point. It's just a bunch of files and when I now launch DMJava it looks the s...

Hi Kelley, I'm finding the installation almost impossible using Ark in linux. I know it's partly due to Ark's fuzzy unrar'ing but would you PLEASE oh please just use the standard directory structure in your rar file so that I can unrar it straight into the dmjava folder without having to jump throug...

Thank you very much for your efforts! Hoping to play your game/engine before long!

I just registered in the forums here so that I can show enthusiasm for your incredible looking game! I think once you release your clone interest will grow a lot! I hope you get lots of help to create content! I love the physics video where you throw something at the light and the light changes in t...
