Hi,
I do not work for Mythological Software.
Does the Tungsten C have a built in keyboard?
http://www.mythological.com/db2_faq.htm
"Q: How can I play on my HandSpring Treo - there are no silkscreen
keys on that device to access the party view and overhead map.
a)LapTopHack ($14.95) allows you to configure those keys so you can
play Dragon Bane 1 or 2 on the Treo
b)MythoLogical included a special Treo fix that allows users to
access those screens with the 'm' (map view) and 'p' (party view)
keys in Dragon Bane II V1.0.3 "

Is this playable on a Tungsten C? I tried with the demo to remap the calculator
to a
hard button, since you can use the 5-way pad, but it still doesn't work. The

The max rate is about 1 move per second. Game time does not pass if
you step twice before an approximate 1 second tick.
Also remember that monster picking is based on the map's monster
density. So no need to experiment with your maps, you can simply
calculate the average number of encounters between point A and point
B = Distance(A, B) * density * 255 / 1000.

It checks for monsters when you move onto a mapsquare, but only at a maximum rate, so if you move very quickly, you will encounter less monsters than if you go the same distance slowly.
Subject: [DragonBaneII] DB2ACK: TICKs or Mapsquares
Hi DragonBaneII Yahoo! Forum,
Does the Dragon Bane II Engine (DB2E) check for monster encounters when you move, when you move onto a mapsquare, or each game TICK. It seems like I run into less monsters when running.

Actually I use Sandisk cards and have not had any problems with them at all. I like the plastic cases they come in, which make a convenient way to carry them safely when they are not in the Palm. I carry 8 cards total, not all Sandisk (some being pre-loaded cards -- e.g., PDA Recipes from Handmark, WineSpectator), I always keep one card loaded and carry two in special slots made for them in my Palm case. The other five go in one of the small heavy plastic cases from Otter Box, which can take up to six SD or MMP cards in plastic cases. That only leaves me space for one more card, so I may be looking for either a slightly larger solution or a second small OtterBox fairly soon.

You might also try several programs that circumvent the Palm OS and let you run directly from the SD/ MMC card. I have listed several URLs below discussing running "Return of Kra'an" (MSRK) in such a fashion.
Beware, one customer got a fatal corruption from the memory card. He never makes clear in his posts if he is running from RAM (normal Palm OS loads it from SD/MMC card to RAM) or from SD/ MMC card (circumventing the Palm OS with a third party program).
As with all software, before installing, backup both your RAM and the SD/MMC card to your computer. If you need to, get a SD/MMC card reader for your computer, they are fairly cheap.

Subject: RE: [DragonBaneII] Unable to open Return of Kra'an
I am running it off a memory card on a Palm m515. This is exactly the same machine that I was running this same adventure on for several weeks successfully. I simply moved away from playing it for a week or so, but I did not do anything to disturb it, such as move or delete files associated with it. Nor have I done anything to the platform itself -- no system software upgrades or anything like that. I will try a reinstallation.

Hi,
I am not a member of Mythological Software.
This Yahoo! Group serves "Return of Kra'an" (MSRK), "Princess
Demelza" (SSPD) and Dragon Bane II Adventure Construction Kit
(DB2ACK). If the DB2ACK traffic ever becomes heavy enough, it will
be split off into another Yahoo! Group.
Several messages involving DB2ACK discuss "God Mode". As far as I
know, no adventure currently released or planned for release has
a "God Mode" for the release version.
In addition, DB2ACK comes with Dragon Bane II Engine-Debug (DB2E-D).
DB2E-D allows a large number of cheats for adventure designers.
However, DB2E-D only works with pre-release versions of the adventure
(0.99 or lower). Release versions of the adventure (1.0 or higher)
will not run on DB2E-D.

I read about the never ending fruit trees in the Marsh. Simon said
he fixed them regenerating when you just transport out and back
again. But if you walk over any of the places that say 'Why don't
you pick some fruit ...' - they've been regenerated. You don't even
have to leave. Round and around you go, getting three by three.
It's nice to bump up your party before continuing on. Plus you end
up getting higher levels, since you're bumping into some nastyish bad
guys in the Marsh too.

Hi,
I was playing the demo version of this game. It's got me hooked - I
just downloaded the full version, and I'll give my free time away for
a week now.
I like that fact that there are multiple ways around things, and I
can't get back to the two level wall with a puzzle beside. What did
I miss? I'll get back to it next time I play ... now that I know the
answer, but I'd appreciate if you could keep me from going nuts with
curiosity.

Dragon Bane II for Zaurus now available.
MythoLogical Software, in conjunction with Eon Games is pleased to
present Dragon Bane II for the Zaurus platform.
Not only does the game come bundled with the Return Of Kra'an
adventure, but because the Zaurus version is binary compatible with
the PalmOS version, all adventures created by third parties using
MythoLogical Software's free Dragon Bane II Adventure Construction
Kit will automatically run on both platforms without the need to re-
compile or distribute separate versions of adventures. Furthermore,
all the original Palm generated sound effects in the game are
replaced with sampled sounds on the Zaurus platform.
The free demo of the Zaurus version of Dragon Bane II, playable
through the first three levels, is available from MythoLogical
Software's website, or from your favorite online Zaurus software
archive.
Also, for those who are only subscribing to announcements, I forgot
to mark my previous post "Dragon Bane II 1.0.5 released" as a special
announcement. So this notice will have to serve double.
- 5 way nav support (i.e. Tungsten)
- Sony jog dial support
- Fix a coupl of vampire spell computations
So far, we only have Palm OS and Zaurus updates.
