Hi I have a rule of playing a few hours of KoDP when I visit my folks for the weekend every six months or so. Amazing a 1999 game and it's still feels fresh to...
Chris ... The manual says Resurrection One of Chalana Arroy's amazing powers is the ability to restore the recently dead to life. The circumstances of death or...
... As I recall it, you don't get asked something like "Arkat was killed in the fighting, do you want to try to Resurrect him?" If you want to resurrect...
I think I once used it on one of my own leaders, but I generally forget to try it. Will have to give it a whirl! However once you have that blessing there is...
I've played KoDP on and off for years now, but lately I've begun to get into some of the knitty gritty aspects of the game. Now we all know that each noble...
... Ah yes, http://a-sharp.com/kodp/osl.html ... I did buy a couple of duck paintings via David Dunham at a GloranthaCon, and he was kind enough to later send...
ulyssez ... I'm pretty sure this would just be skill -- i.e. why you pay attention to who you put on the Ring. ... This sounds about right (from memory). ... ...
Just speaking of other clan chiefs, one trait that I think I've only seen mentioned once, but which highly amused me, was something like: "known for his...
Okay, let me add two more traits to the "fairly certain" list: "Told you so!": Spouts one of those "told you blahblah" comments disturbingly often. Frequently...
Hi, long time KoDP player, new to the list. Will the source code for KoDP ever be opened up to the public? I suspect not, since I expect a game like this still...
I'm sure many people in this group will have harboured the desire to make a KoDP-a-like at one point or another. Did anyone ever do it? Are there any other...
I'm a new member - and not sure how many folks are out there. Anyway, I've been playing on and off since 2000. With the new HeroQuest 2.0 coming out soon I...
Not as far as I know. I too have scoured the gaming world for similar games, even if just in taste or spirit. But it seems to me that, sadly, KoDP is truly...
For my part, I'd love nothing more than to have a look at the KoDP source code. I hope A# seriously consider this possibility. They have little to lose on...
... After seeing the demo for Spirited Heart (Winterwolf Games), I was struck by the similarity in gameplay between the two games, even though Spirited Heart ...
... You can't compile KoDP without mTropolis header files. So there's not a lot of point to it. (Ignoring all the other issues, like the fact that it uses IDEs...
... Exactly. It really cannot hurt the KoDP sales in anyway. It would just be a fascinating look into the workings of the game for us fans. I am of the...
I'm using a virtual machine with windows 98 installed to run the game (VirtualBox on MacOS X, but could be VMWare, VirtualPC etc etc, just choose VBox 'cause...
... I wouldn't actually want to compile it, I'd just like to look inside to see how it ticks. ... Yes, it left me hungry for more! I totally understand if you...
Greetings all Been scanning through some of the messages to find the best solution for getting Kodp to work on a new intel mac running os x. Is there anyone...
You could try VMWare Fusion or Parallels to run it seamlessly in OS X. http://www.vmware.com/products/fusion/ http://www.parallels.com/ Or install a VM of...
... For those of you who are new members and are interested in seeing what the code looks like, have a peek at: http://a-sharp.com/kodp/osl.html I wonder if...
Thinking of doing a Java high definition version for Blu-ray discs leads me to think of a business plan. The missing link is a web based version of King of...
... The fact there was never a KoDP2 speaks volumes: in commercial terms, I think it was just too much work for too little reward. I am just a bit suprised...
The scripting system is not a problem. Content generation would be. The big problem with making a KODP-like game would be the enormeous amount of game content...
... That's right. KoDP isn't very complicated in terms of programming. In fact it can probably be emulated well enough just with Flash. But to recreate...
Alex ... IIRC, there are something like 450000 words in KoDP -- more than most novels. Everyone who approached us to sell a localized version decided it was...
... Sounds like something only dedicated volunteers could do. Really dedicated. ... Right, I'd forgotten that. At best it would then be as good as a generic...
From the position of 10 years of hindsight, most of that in the casual game business, I think KoDP is more complex than it needs to be. I have a few ideas on...
