    What kind of problems are you having? ToME's been very stable for me this release, although it certainly complains alot. Many of the LUA errors end up being harmless as far as i can tell... just skip them and keep playing!

    28 years of rogue-ing! Someone buy this guy an ale!

  • Another Sparky the Shalore Archmage   14 years 35 weeks ago

    The Greater Mummy Lord was Sparky's next victim in the Elven Ruins, and then Sparky went to Trollmire and Kor'Pul just to see if their bosses dropped anything worthwhile. He got Eden's Guile from Bill and the Blood of Life from The Shade of Kor'Pul.

    Those screenshots sure take me back :) Especially like the Old Forest and overland map. Nice work.

  • Old RPG Tileset Beta 3d   14 years 35 weeks ago

    Wow that was fast! I had a feeling the copyright issue might be a problem, but your solution seems to be a good one. Supported but not included in the download is perfect for something like this! Glad you like it!

  • Old RPG Tileset Beta 3d   14 years 35 weeks ago

    This is sooo cute!

    Obviously copyright stuff will prevent inclusion in the default version but I have added an autodetection for next beta:
    If you put a folder named "oldrpg" inside data/gfx/ and put your stuff inside it will add a new entry in the graphics mode menu allowing you to select it :)

    Sparky next entered the Spellblaze, to seek out the Grand Corrupter. He agreed to accompany the corrupters in their assault on Zigur, and prevailed against Protector Myssil and his Ziguranth allies. This unlocked the corrupter class, which completes the unlocks at this time. All that remains in Maj'Eyal is the Elven Ruins, and then Sparky will be heading for Reknor and points East.

    Sparky defeated the Master and got the Staff plus a nice shielding rune and a randart sword for the collection. Afterward, he got pwned as usual by the Orc Ambush. It's only later that I thought of using Time Prison on Ukruk. That would have given Sparky lots of time to deal with the other orcs, and then he could concentrate on taking Ukruk down.

    But anyway, now it's time for the Elven ruins, and then Eastward.

    Sparky is at clvl 28, and MAG is now at cap, notwithstanding equipment boosts. Future stat points will go to WIL and CON.

  • T-Engine4 / ToME4 beta21 aka "World Wide Tome II" unleashed!   14 years 35 weeks ago

    I am playing a shaloren summoner and I can see Ritch Flamespitters became quite wimpy, always escaping from the battle and never casting.

  • T-Engine4 / ToME4 beta21 aka "World Wide Tome II" unleashed!   14 years 36 weeks ago

    Have only played around with it a little so far, but 'm loving what changes I've come across!
    A quick note about the offline profile issues: Some of us have discovered that you might need to rename the "dev" profile folder to "offline", and NOT the "default" folder, in order to get your achievements carried over. This may only apply to a few people but it's worth noting. :)

    Rod of Recall usable by Antimagics! Boo, Bill can't drown himself anymore!

  • T-Engine4 / ToME4 beta21 aka "World Wide Tome II" unleashed!   14 years 36 weeks ago

    EDIT:
    Nvm I missed the explantation

  • T-Engine4 / ToME4 beta21 aka "World Wide Tome II" unleashed!   14 years 36 weeks ago

    The Rod of Recall and better AI thingies are so awesome they make up for all the wait (not so much if you think about it)!

  • A mod for Debuggers and Fun-lovers Alike!   14 years 36 weeks ago

    I'm working on updating this now.

  • T-Engine4 / ToME4 beta21 aka "World Wide Tome II" unleashed!   14 years 36 weeks ago
    svn

    SVN?

    And the windows version (no sound) seems to be a bad game version for me.

  • A mod for Debuggers and Fun-lovers Alike!   14 years 36 weeks ago

    It had to be made.

  • I hate...   14 years 36 weeks ago

    Ok people who have lags can you please try that:
    Edit the file game/loader/pre-init.lua and add
    Code:
    collectgarbage("setpause",100)
    collectgarbage("setstepmul",400)
    collectgarbage("restart")

    at the top of it...

    That is if you're using WINDOWS.

  • A mod for Debuggers and Fun-lovers Alike!   14 years 36 weeks ago

    Playing such mods imho is an easiest method of losing interest to the game.

  • Adventures in debugging   14 years 37 weeks ago

    So anyway the problem turned out to be solved by updating the nvidia graphics card drivers. It's not the first time that has fixed a weird problem with an Open/GL program.

  • I've figured out why the elven ruins were abandoned   14 years 37 weeks ago
    Meh

    I once found a voratun battleaxe on the first level of the trollmire. It didn't feel right :J

  • Wrathroot   14 years 37 weeks ago

    Well, if you're below level 5, you have no business in the old forest, so most likely he's already level 5.

  • I've figured out why the elven ruins were abandoned   14 years 37 weeks ago

    Ooh, voratun. I hear you man. There's always some point where you get about a million stralite battleaxes...

  • I've figured out why the elven ruins were abandoned   14 years 37 weeks ago

    Every other Cursed skill can be used with all melee weapons, not just axes.

  • Wrathroot   14 years 37 weeks ago

    Thank you guys, appreciate the response! I never thought much about stun resistance or physical saves preventing me from being encased in ice.

  • Wrathroot   14 years 37 weeks ago

    The most important thing is a high stun resistance, cold resistance does not help against freezing attacks or stuns. You may also use a movement inscription, but it usually has a low duration. Another trick is to increase your global speed (boots of speed or speed rune for example, but not both); this may help to reduce the duration of a freezing attack.

    Against Wrathroot, I don't mind the freezing spell if he is distant: you may be able to avoid the bolt, and his other attacks are only close range attacks (distance <=3 for the spells). A deadly combination is a close range freeze attack (Ice Storm spell for example) and stuns.

  • Wrathroot   14 years 37 weeks ago

    Just pump Berserker to level 5... and it'll give you 65% stun resistance. And pinning resistance too...
