Thank you for the wonderful Christmas Gift.

Perhaps a way to go would be to assign the transformation of existing dungeons to several people, so that each could correct the errors of one dungeon, and the results should be made available as downloads (encyclopedia ?).

This does not include fixing non-directed actuators or other "internal ...

DMute is designed, i believe, to convert the dungeon.dat file to a .rtc file only (for the moment). The dmsave.dat has alot of 'junk' information about the party and events - so you might find that this is interfering with the convertion...i could be wrong and George has build in an ignore function ...

Would anyone be interested in a minor update to DMute whereby it exported a dungeon into something close to an RTC format?

I say "something close" as there would need to be a manual step to get the triggers and stuff working, but I could easily knock something up to export the headers, dugeon ...

Wow!

This is indeed complicated stuff for my tired brain to grasp at the moment. (After all, I just figured out how to place a mirror w/champion successfully in my latest dungeon!! LOL.)

Thanks for the link. I've saved ...

Being a newbie, I probably shouldn't try stuff that is over my head. However, the idea really intrigued me so I had to go look at it.

Andy, how does one configure Bochs to play DM or DM2? I can see all the options, but haven't a clue how to make the necessary changes.

If this post would be ...

Sorry for posting too many newbie questions. I guess you've all heard them before. Thanks for the help.

I tried to look at DMute, but I'm finding it easier to just use the code. Though, I do like to see what the dungeon looks like on DMute.

I've been playing around with the existing txt files and I think I have a handle on how to place things now.

One other thing I can't seem to figure out is ...

The only thing that I still don't see (and this is because I'm no good at visualizing 3-D rooms in code or on a graph) is how to place things on the dungeon squares.

For example, I used the example files and modified them to add things to the "Orange" room. Only I can't see how to place an object ...

You've done a great job, George! Thanks for making DM playable in Windows. We used to play when my son was about 3 (he'd hack the screamers for us and throw them to earn ninja points). Now he can play it on his own anew. :)

I'm just beginning to read your instructions for making new dungeons and ...
