... I've noticed that with Raubritters.. once the RB near Xanten respawned twice immediately after I killed him and collected the reward (and the castle is...
... Huh. I've seen the villages burnt (that happens immediately when the dragon appears, and they stay burnt), just never two dragons. Then again, as is the...
... I don't know about the mines. With dragons, now that I know how the location data differs for an active vs inactive dragon it was easy to examine the save...
I'm on a hunt for virtue! I restarted a youngster group playing hardcore style. My 21 year olds finally got healing up past 30 and the alchemy is coming along...
... Sounds like your healing and alchemy went better than mine. It was only around 5 years into the game that alchemy started becoming useful for my current...
I have found recently that the simplest way is to wander the countryside and perform tasks like escorting pilgrims to cities and the like. Can't say it's the...
thanks for the ideas on virtue. ... After a few rough starts of party wipes I tried a new tactic. One thing I did, which may not have been in the true spirit...
... I agree -- random, but it often increases virtue, even if it takes you a bit out of your way. Also, defeating satanic villages is a good way, because you...
(ongoing topic between me and DC) ... Huh. After looking at my party 2 saved games, comparing events and locations data, I do see location offset x0d changing...
... though. As I've debated recently I am pretty certain by now that most players get 2 dragon quests once the "maiden-village dragon" appears and until that...
Very simple to get permanent virtue increase in Darklands. Here are ways you can get it, organized by suggestive chronology of events and possibilities in...
Ok...I KNEW I was writting this way too fast. In the message above at number 8), please add (or notice) that terminating Evil Castle Lords can also increase...
Checking on teh DosBox website, it says that Darklands is supported under DosBox .70, but their latest versions is .72. Is anyone running .72 on XP, or should...
... With a few rare exceptions, each new dosbox release has been an improvement. I am running Darklands with 0.71 just fine and according to the change log for...
... I ma running Darklands in DOSBox 0.72 and am not having any problems, although I have only had about 45 mins of playtime with the game using it. UK_John...
Hi Merle, while working on the lua bindings for the darklands save data I noticed that the event labels you have on the reversing website have some out by one...
I'm disappointed at the lack of Odd Saves in the folder of the same name on the Darklands forum, considering how so many were announced at some point or others...
I must agree with you, Sultitan. I wish that many of them were still around as well. I think some of the original content owners deleted their own files,...
... I remember Leprechaun detailing a lot of savegame exploits (such as getting an endless supply of brass handguns after rescuing the merchant caravan) but I...
Drinking Leprechaun must have been one of the most casual member of this group ever. He or she was here for about a year, very active in 2004 (said in a post...
I've been running DK on Win XP using VDM sound. I recently installed the version 7 patch, and now I can't save my gamves - everything freezes when I "save...
I'd download the game from underdogs.com It is patched up to 7.0 and I know no one who is playing the underdogs version, like I am (even though I have since...
... It shouldn't have anything to do with the registry - Being a DOS game, it is unaffected / unaware. Probably it is a difference in the save format or a...
You remember how the Darklands manual describes man wolves as being part of the mythologic creatures of late medieval Germany? They seemed totally absent from...
... Ha! Good catch. I always *hated* having to edit the offsets by hand (couldn't find an XSLT to do them) and caught some, but this one slipped past me....
... Yes. It seemed quite a loss. I think the problem stemmed from a slowness of people to create a replacement game, combined with all the disagreements...
... In case you don't check the mail, I sent a personal email to your merle-darklands email with links to Butterfly (which I didn't like) and treebeard, two...
