LUA ERROR: base/util.lua:241: Sound is nil

[money]

Not sure if this is the right place - but another error found on level 6 and 8 - seems to be when getting close to Skeletons. Once they were defeated i could still hear the sound.

Taken from the log file...

I can't reproduce this.

Can you send me your savegame near where this happens?

I think the sound you were hearing was just some other skeletons that were currently out of view. There are some hidden ones that control the fireball launcher on that level.

As for the Lua error, it's ultimately harmless. It's due to a bug in the (DSB port of the) DM dungeon itself.

If you want to fix it, though, you can add the following line to startup.lua (just create startup.lua if it doesn't exist)

Code: Select all

snd.skeleton = snd.step_skeleton

I'm fixing that and other stuff. There could be problems with other monster step sounds.
