Questions when using the editors for DM2 (PC)
Posted: Sat Jan 18, 2014 10:48 am
Hi, I have been a hard core player of DM2 TLoS on PC it is one of my best of the best old DOS games. I solved it all myself without using any Walkthroughs, the puzzles especially the last one to break into the Void entrance, all found it myself...
And from time to time like once per several years I feel like playing the game. Now I play it on Android with DosBox Turbo but anyway, I decided besides changing the platform frm PC to my phone.. to also do smth different from the usual choose heroes and the same...
and this is where I came across the editors that I want to use. Firstly I wanna customize the char by modifying an existing one's look, DM2GDED does it.
1. How do I change the colors of Health/Stamina/Mana bars?
I don't want green red yellow blue team colors bars, I want to change those, the fighters where you select runes for spells is part of the UI but those bars are not in graphics.dat at all.. I want to use different Team Colors from Red, Yellow, Green and Dark Blue.
2. Can new maps be added with the editor (not just modifying the boundaries of existing ones), including adding Ladders, Exits that lead to these new maps, whether dungeons or grass?
I cannot even add new exits or entrances with the editor.
3. How can I make shops with different items on display?
So far they use the pre-defined ones for Mechant, Bad Merchant or Magic~, what if I want other items that are not usually for sale?
4. How do I make character portrait change only after a specific name is typed like the Mac Easter Egg?
