Dungeon Master Forum

@Antman, I take note of your proposal if I find some Japanese items missing in my collection. Thanks !

Thanks for looking into the issue.

With this new version:
- I opened an existing dungeon.
- I added two new texts
- I added two new scrolls in the dungeon and selected the two new texts for these scrolls.
- I saved the dungeon.
- I closed DMBuilder, reopened it, and loaded the modified dungeon ...

Another one: when editing the stats in the text of a champion, only the first 4 digits of the stamina value can be changed, not the fifth one.

In DMBuilder 0.88.g2, I'm trying to add a new scroll in a dungeon.
I add the scroll with + and press enter to edit it.
Then selecting a text for the scroll fails: by default it uses text 0, and using the right arrow I can move to text 1, but then it stops working and I can't select any other text ...

Nice to see the project is still alive !

I uploaded this version 5 to the Shared Onedrive for easier download with less annoying advertisement pop ups

@Ameena you are mixing things up:
- the certificate error message posted by Gambit37 is about here, the forum, not the encyclopaedia
- there is no https, hence no certificate at all on the encyclopaedia

uh oh, never seen that one. No cert issues on my side. Anyone else ?

I have replaced all AI thumbnails with screenshots or collages that hopefully look better.

Running into your own projectiles is actually a bug in versions 1.x and 2.x of the game engine.
It was fixed in later versions.
See BUG0_46 on http://dmweb.free.fr/Stuff/ReDMCSB/Docu ... hanges.htm

Wrong assumption: the SNES version is a direct descendant of the Apple IIGS version, so it is an early one (internally it is a version 2.0 engine as shown by the version checker sensor).

The SNES version of DM is based on the Apple IIGS source code because the CPU in the SNES is very similar to the ...

In my previous post I described the effects of Fireballs and Lightning Bolts on creatures. In this case attack types like 'Blunt' or 'Fire' are not being used in the source code, I only used these terms for clarity.
Damage from the collision is not decreased by fire resistance of the creature ...

Some facts:

All original versions of DM/CSB allowed only a single saved game per disk. Only hacked versions added support for 4 slots.
DM2 was fully developed by FTL Games and not by Interplay. It was released in Japan in 1993/1994. Graphics already looked dated for the time, but the game was ...

I checked in the source code. Fireballs and Lightning bolts cause two sources of damage.

1. When a champion casts a fireball or a lightning bolt, it creates a projectile that you can see flying in the dungeon.

2. When the projectile hits a creature, it inflicts some damage. Stone Golems and ...

You can find things on the Dungeon Master Encyclopaedia by:

Browsing the site using the menus,
Using tags (link on top of all pages):
For example the Downloads tag has a list of all pages containing downloads, including DM2 Skullkeep for all platforms
Using the built-in search engine on the ...

Fireball do not hurt black flames or make them respawn, actually they heal them!

No, creature groups are distinct. They never merge and they never split.

If a creature generator is triggered when another creature is already occupying the target square of the generator, then the generated creature is indeed "queued" because only one creature group is allowed on a square, and it will spawn as soon as the square becomes free. That explains the instant ...

I will add your note.

If you want, you can use CSBuild to investigate creature generator sensors and see how they are triggered.

That sixth skeleton key in a Oitu is only present in the Super NES / Super Famicom version.
In all other versions, there are only 5 skeleton keys in the dungeon.

Each creature generator is a sensor that must be activated by another sensor. Anything is possible as any other sensor can be used to ...

oops I forgot to enable the theme again after restoring the last database. This is fixed and should work now from the User Control Panel

SVG would be even better for the logo, thanks.

After some downtime again tonight, the site is back in a dedicated VPS (Virtual Private Server) instead of a shared hosting plan.
Hopefully the various errors we have seen in the past days are gone.
I have added the pycode theme (dark) and the darkmode extension.
You may select your preferred theme ...

I saw this error 509 too. And the http 512 again.

I think I need to move back to a dedicated VPS hosting plan, similar to what we had before. I can get a refund for the next 20 days or so.
I'll look into it.

Did you know about the Apple IIGS demo?

Sorry, no dark mode

I interviewed Doug Bell more than 20 years ago

Still eager to read that interview !
