Hey Dan! First, thanks for your Character Editor and World Regeneration tool. Would it be possible for you to create a standalone World Map application that...
Although Darklands hasn't been mentioned, I thought you would all like to know about a new web store called Good Old Games that plans on bringing classic DOS...
There was some map decoding instruction discussion a few years ago. I think several of the directories in the groups 'files' section have map info and tools. I...
Jeff, Merle has the file format info on his web-site: http://wallace.net/darklands/ Note that the "map" file itself does not have any of dynamic elements in...
Interesting idea Jeff. As Matt and Quadko point out, what we think of as "The Map Data" is split into two parts. The static map data I think provides the tiles...
... I am very interested in that if you are willing to make it available. That'd be cool. The C# especially, C++/dll very interesting too. Cheers, Quadko...
... Regarding the C# code, I used to have the character editor source in the files section but I don't seem to have the latest version there. I will do a bit...
Most spam is dull and tedious but I thought this one was funny ;-) ... We have just launched Homedecorations.com and are currently in the process of building...
I like to arrange the heads of my enemies on the castle wall in a checkerboard pattern: every other head is a woman's. My dining room makes extensive use of...
I truly love Darklands and have played it over and over again. I have a tip for anyone interested that will allow you to gain 1,000 florins off of one...
To make a 1,000 or more florins off of one Robber Knight you need to be able to invoke one of the following saints: St. Wolfgang, St. Raymond Pf, or St....
Two methods that I know of for maximising Raubritter loot are: a) Raise your local fame as high as possible - the more famous you are the larger the quest...
I agree...can't have without risking your life to some degree. Being all good can be a little boring too...kill a few of the monks selling indulgences, you...
Interesting that you mention role-play. I am actually an avid and practiced role-player but usually more so in mmorpgs and dungeons and dragons games. How do...
Yeah, I know Darklands isn't exactly bug-free, but I've been running into a really odd one: It seems that now, there's always one member of an opposing force ...
In my opinion, that kind of exploit, in roleplaying terms, would be like going to get a car that cost $10000 and bargaining until you get it for $50 (or less,...
The non-moving enemy is a new one. Look at it as an opportunity for projectile practice! The alchemy just sounds like bad luck on the trading. Some members...
Hello again, I wrote a game guide which details some of the lesser known tricks and tactics in Darklands. Along with how to make 1,000 florins from one Robber...
Your guide advocates staying in slums to save money. The problem with staying in the slums is that you take a hit to local rep for every night you're in...
Yes, but with a properly formed beginning party, and the fact that you can defeat multiple gangs of ruffians at night in the slums, this effectively cancels...
Hi Brian, I run Darklands on XP, I had trouble with getting it to run until a friend showed me how to make a shortcut and run it in Windows 95 compatibility...
... I tried, on multiple occasions, to get Darklands to run on Windows 95, over a period of many years, but I never could free enough memory. Then a few years...
