Dungeon Master Forum

I was just wondering...will it do any harm if I changed the filename of "Play DM-Atari"?
Thanks
This is going to be a simple answer isn't it. Lol.

in reverse order: yes. no.

To and to and complicate the answer:
The file itself is just pointing the CSBwin programme to a folder with original DM in it - if you open the .bat file in Notepad, you can save it with a different name then change the internal text to point to a brand new folder with your new dungeon in it, to save you over-writing the original DM dungeon with your new variant

Hope that helps rather than confuses : )

The batch file makes thing rather confusing. It was
intended to be hepful but it turns out that it is
confusing for non-geeks. It was meant to make
it easy to have several games share the same
graphics file. But modern disks are so big that
this is sort of silly.

The easiest way to edit and play a game is to put
the following files in a single folder:

For dungeon Master
1 - CSBWin.exe
2 - dungeon.dat
3 - config.txt
4 - graphics.dat
5 - tiles.bmp (for editing)
6 - CSBuild.exe (for editing)

To run the game simply double click on CSBwin.exe
To edit the game double click on CSBuild.exe and then
use the Open Menu to select the game to edit.

If you have several games make several folders
with their own copies of the files.

Actually, I almost do that. I just don't quite have CSBuild in every folder, b/c I'm weird.
And thanks for the answer
