Re: What does the coin slot do on the worm level?

Speaking about the "Daemon Faces" in Dungeon Master, I clearly recall some of them meaning "Pay Attention". For example, in the large room that is level 7, it is not unusual to see one of them near a button, a pressure plate or an item on the floor.

Re: What does the coin slot do on the worm level?

Going from memory, but they don't do anything. First time I ever played it, I was doing the same thing at the start of that level thinking "they must be there for a reason". LOL, same happened to me, and not only the first time I played. Whenever I replay DM after long time enought to loo...

Re: Dungen Master Waktrough

Episode 13 of the Dungeon Master walktrough is online!
This time we explore the whole of the 7th level and venture through the 8th, whose labirintic corridors and hallways challenge badly my orienteering skills (and my tireness).

Hello guys! This is a set of photos I manipulated to crossover them with videogames. I made them for fun inspired by a little competition on a Facebook Page.

Poison Dart

Quick question about this weapon: do poison darts actually poison the enemy (like poison bolt spell does) or is it just a fancy name?
I'm asking because DM Encyclopedia just shares the damage value.

Re: Champion's Max Load question

You are quite right that "expected/unexpected" is a better choice of words because there is no issue on the compiler side. The C language does not specify an order of evaluation, therefore each compiler does it in its own way (and all are correct as there is no specification to follow). I...

Champion's Max Load question

There is something I can't understand reguarding the Max Load and how it is handled. It seems that whenever a champion gains a level up that increases his strength, the max load value increases exceeding the strength boost, and then decreases over time reaching the correct number. Is that correct, o...
