I gave the quick virtue trick a try and it didn't work. At about 100 local rep confessions were still taking an hour, so I did one more quest for the lord of...
Hmmm, It worked for me. What's the level of religion for your characters? I have my guys maxed out. I am using the CD version of the game. I can't think of...
I will try again with higher religion. Both that and virtue were very low when I tried it. I usually play with 20 year olds which means low skills for...
I am just curious? Have you tried finding the village where they are sacrificing the maiden? If you are able to find it, you can raise virtue, stealth and...
You can also earn virtue quickly by giving a donation at the church (not the cathedral) in town. If the donation does not give you a virtue increase, try...
Whoa, all this time I thought I was the only one who starts with a party of 20 year olds. It is nice to know that I am not alone. It is nice to have one...
I don't discount that donating to a Church raises virtue. I have seen it work with a party that never did anything more than defeat raubritters and castle...
The formulas available for purchase/trade appear to be bugged. Every city I go to seems to have the same 6 or 7 formulas available. There seems to be no...
I remember mentioning something similar in a post to this group, and after a quick search through my email archives... My post, titled "Alchemists - all...
Over the years i keep returning to the game and i came to the conclusion that you can easily play most of the game in one quarter of the map ---seems the SW is...
As far as formulas to sell, yes, you'll see the same old formulae everywhere. I rarely ever buy formula. One, it's too expensive in the early game when I...
Hello All, I was cleaning up my bookshelf and found Darklands on it! It is the floppy version (10x 3.5" floppies) I was going to try and set up DosBOX and play...
It is normal the alchemists to have the same sets of low efficiency formulas for sale. After all this is highly secret family busisness and is normal the good...
If you own the original, downloading the whole game from an abandonware site is considered legally under the banner of 'making a backup'. You will, however,...
Is there any way to install DK on a flash drive, making it portable? I can foresee some issues (mis-matching drive letters & operating systems, for example),...
It is not possible, simply because of the drive letters. "People are easily amused by quotes." - Some guy with a cool-sounding name. ... From: Ken Green...
Sure. Just copy all the files, and while you're at it put dosbox on the thumb drive too. If you run the game via dosbox (http://www.dosbox.com/), you don't...
... It is possible, at least on windows systems. To be sure I just tried it out and I was able to run the same copy of Darklands from a USB key on both my XP...
Actually, there is an even simpler approach if you don't want to bother with the portable apps or pstart launchers. Just install Dosbox Portable to your USB...
I did try looking for it online, but all I could find was a download on abandonia that wouldn't work. So I guess I am just out of luck then? ... and ... ...
Hi Charles! I can send you one. Eventhough it's possible to get a whole, flat distro online (in installation required), it's nice to be able to restore the ...
Typo! My bad. I meant "NO installation" in the side-comment rather than "in installation". <8P ... From: Matt Wirkkala; Sent: Wed, Feb 18, 2009 11:53 AM ...
As far as Abandonia: It may have just been that day, It took 5 minutes for the Download page to load, and then when I clicked the Get It link, it tried until ...
Charles, Well, I downloaded it today from Abandonia when I said I tried it - so it was today I downloaded it and tried it and it worked. John ... From: Charles...
Charles, Oh, and I can send you the zip file if you want that I downloaded from Abandonia, just copy the folder anywhere, and then run DOSBox (or a front end)...
OK, the date of the files I have is 8/7/1992, so it appears as though I have version 5 according to the dates on that link you sent. Thanks! ... than "in ... ...
