You did a great job there. I'm really looking forward to the official release of this dungeon.

I especially love how you did the night sky. I also love that wooden walls. I did something similar and IMO the effect looks great to creating small, rustic buildings.

I have got only one message I'm afraid, no attachemnts :(

If the file is large, perhaps google docs if you have a google account? Trantor used that to share his new Doom Blade recently, and I was able to mirror it.

Thanks beowuuf,
Just in time. Have to return laptop. Remember it is my first so the first couple levels are not perfect
but as you get deeper into the game there is much improvement

Hmm? Placed SOTF in Modules and launch doesn't work. How do you open a RAR ? I've only played RTCs GB

DUDE, THIS IS FANTASTIC! I finally died, ran through it fast. you really went all out and used a lot of features. I don't want to say right now as not to spoil but to be honest, this is the best I've tried so far... I want to go back and restart with better characters, this game needs planning to beat :)

AWESOME

Just started playing this and have got quite far, well in my terms anyway. The big tree as you come up the first set of stairs seems to be chopable but after a lot of hacks you get a violation message and game crash, so I presume its not killable. One thing to look out for though as many gamers may think it is. Also couple of things I am stuck on and that is burning the tree, and an object to climb the pipe. Havent found any spells for the spell book yet so presume they are later on in the game.

Currently playing this. I will post my thoughts and comments as I play. Some may be useful to you, some are just nonsensical rambling.

- The characters don't really seem balanced, people like Cierra or Saphire seem really weak. Star and especially Myst seem pretty good in contrast. Intentional?
- Darwin is a Neophyte Wizard with 0 mana, that seems odd.
- Cool new graphics! I like how different characters have different hand icons in the dungeon view. :) (even if it might be a bit confusing)
- Reading is a bit hard because the letters have all kinds of different colors.
- I found the chosen ones too late and already had four characters. I hope they are not necessary?
- Only found the Lo and the Ful rune so far, and the Lo rune was hidden a lot better. I wonder if I missed Ya and Vi...

So far for now, will post more later.

it's been a blast so far. I have lots to say about it.

- the interface was very well done, beautiful. you made every use of all the features in RTC.
- in the beginning I looked at those doors in animation and I wonder how you did that, real nice job, had me from the start.
- nice how the walls break up.
- the sound effects so far have immersed me right into the game.
- the injuries with bandaged wounds was down right well done.
- great death scene.
- spooky sleep sound.
- forest fires really give it an outdoors feel, careful, don't fall into the fire :)
- the apple tree, felt like a great scientist and was going to get hit on the head with an idea how to get past that specter.

this dungeon is full of surprises, I am going to love playing this.

one thing I noticed, there was no interaction with the character\monsters... maybe there is further down, have to figure out how to get past the front door as usual :lol:

Havent got past the spectre yet despite
Spoiler
getting the spectre weapon and then locating the purple orb
. After a couple of blows
Spoiler
the spectre weapon just goes to jab
. Does that mean that it then
Spoiler
becomes useless against the spectre
. I note also that the cage
Spoiler
says it can be put in fire but having tried this nothing happens
. Can someone give me a hint how to get past the spectre and how to put all those dead bodies hanging from the tree out of their misery.

I have no doubt about that stewy. I found the
Spoiler
orb
then i died, couldn't find it again. I am back to testing it out after a snooze. so far the dungeon is marvelous! I did get an error attacking a tentacle creature, could be the creature cloud since I attacked and lunged forward at the same time. I am an aggressive player :) I am off to play some more.

I have some ideas for your outdoor wallsets... let me know if you're interested.

Am I getting the correct purple orb?
Spoiler
If you turn directly around in front of the spectre there is a purple blob which gives you two wizard levels
,
Spoiler
is this the orb or is there something else. I have even given the spectre weapon to my Journeyman Wizard to use and even he cant kill the Spectre.

thanks master, yeah I did find it, but

I ran around searching for nothing... I know it was there too, so when I went back after I died it was not there yet :) sneaky, very sneaky stewy :twisted:

Chaos have you climbed the drain pipe yet. If so where did you find

To open up a rar you need to download a program called Winrar. Just do a search on Google. Make sure you diwnload the free version though unless if course your happy to pay.
