Thanks for your prompt reply...
     The good thing is I still have the old Palm with the original
saved game files...I installed the desktop software (Along with the
same user name) for the original B & W on another computer, did a hot
sync, then did a locate file from the start menu for Drg2SaveMSRK.pdb
and still nothing.  Should I just give up, start over and forget
about my Lv. 22 characters? (I was still in training to kill Kra'an).
Thanks again!

Note the order of parameters on the MAP EXIT instruction are: X Y
Map#.  I've made the mistake before of transposing them and
supplying Map# X Y.  If that's not the cause of your problem, pls
email us the two map files and we'll look at it.

Hello.
I have set up the ACK successfully, virtually written the story & are
currently designing the maps. As I design I progressively check the
designs on the emulator. I understand the logic of the map editor & I
have also written a couple of batch files for example to compile
my .pdb adventure for loading into the emulator.

I am just starting to make myself familiar with the special
instruction code & again have no problem understanding the logic
behind these command lines.

However the problem I encountered was when I was animating a gate to
move from one map to another. Using Map Exit from map 0 to map 1
worked perfectly, but when I coded the gate on map 1 to go back to
map 0 I ended up going to nonsense coordinates (1,254) on map 1.

Map 0 has been partially drawn but map 1 was blank, except for the
test gate. Basically I am intending to put in "test" gates or portals
between all maps & leave the monsters out so I can just simply move
between maps to check initial designs at this early stage on the
emulator.

Your input will help me to further understand the command logic.

Regards,
Simon

Could be:

1) You had some previous installation of the Palm Desktop in another
directory besides C:/palm?

2) You had a different username for your old palm besides
c:/palm/username?

3) You deleted the previous installation of the desktop software or
previous user's backup directory.

4) You didn't do a hotsync to backup your savegame with the previous
user?

If you locate the right installation of the Palm desktop software,
with the right user under that installation's directory, and you had
done a hotsync with that user, you should have a: "Drg2SaveMSRK.PDB"
in the backup directory of that user.

I must be missing something or I'm just and idiot.
    My scenario:
I had a palm 5000 with the 2K memory installed.  I had DBII with the
4 grey scales and a few saved games.  I just bought a Colour palm
IIIC.  I installed the new Palm Desktop on my computer and then
hotsynced.  I installed the new files to support the colour and then
entered the registration code...It works fine but my saved games
aren't in their.  I looked in the C/palm/username/backup file and all
I found was 1 file: "SavedPrefrences.prc"  not anything resembling
Drg2Save.  Any detailed instructions on how to help will be
exceptionally appreciated.  Thanks!

You are right about Raamtha's obsession with healing and I was
playing that card early on. That was how I was able to get rid of the
Monks (Heric used the Green destiny and Poe the Magic bow). What I
was missing was the fact that Raamtha only cast Insane at a distance
of 30' or less. Once that became evident, I pushed Raamtha back after
finishing off the monks and then hammered him with the Great Cross
Bows. It was a long and glorious fight!

Just for fun I am now going see if I can attack him up close using
multiple hit weapons (magic bow and enchanted sword). I will have to
go and get some elemental's first. Thanks for the tip.

Heric and Poe are level 16 and now trying to get Raamtha. They were
doing just fine up to this point but now are really struggling.
Ramtha casts insane on Poe after the Robes are eliminated which
cripples ability to heal. I do not want to resort to using the Wand

Does anyone know what happened to the idea for a hint website based
on a database with multiple levels of clues for each puzzle?  There
was a start on that in the bet a group, and I was wondering if
that's going to be completed?

Hi Larry,

I am going through DB2 for the second time and trying to verify parts
of the walkthrough - am up to Kra'an's Lair 1.

For Kra'an's Lair 1, I have a couple of suggestions:

1) Make a note that you can pick up a Staff of Kinesis at 11,3 with 4
charges that renews when the Weird sphere is used. You should pick up
the Staff before starting in the NW room. This will help save spell
points in casting Open Portal.
2) Clarify the note for the East room - the chest for the Weird
Sphere reappears after you leave the room in case you need to go
there again via the NW room to get another Weird sphere.

Cheers,
Chris

OH! Okay... then I take back everything I said about the programmers...
*grin* Now THAT kind of puzzle I can handle... I didn't USE the slide
left/right buttons. No wonder I'm having a problem. <blush> So, I was
frustrated for the wrong reasons, but I still love the game. *laugh* And

walkthru... can't figure out what I'm doing, then the walkthru says
timed... *sigh* *grin*

It's not timed by the clock.  It's timed by moves.  No less frustrating,
though.

Turning around counts as 2 moves.  Looking at the overhead map doesn't
count as a move.  There are uses for the "slide left" and "slide right"
buttons (the outer two).

Dear Dana,

There should be no realtime puzzles in "Return of Kra'an".  The two
times I remember having timed events, they were always timed to _how
many_ moves you party takes.  There are lots of time when
the "adventure text" says, "Hurry" but it is just for game flavor.
It really means "take the _shortest_ route".

I just double checked Larry & Craig's 8:44am 12-24-2002 walk throu

There is a button at (15,10) that holds a door open, but after you
move, so many spaces, it closes.  Cheesed me off until I found out
how to do it.

Okay, I've got a problem, and I blame the programmers over at Mythological.
I can NOT get past the locked door where you need to press a button and
then run to the door before it gets locked again. My disability prevents
it. SO... my registered copy of DBII is useless now that I'm stuck and
can't get any farther. Guys, I realize that you built this for a wide
audience, but by having a timed puzzle, you have shut out those of us with
physical disabilities. I'm frustrated, and upset. (Spent several HOURS
trying to get past it, and no luck).

I'm the one who had trouble with the Dock V/Gamepad combo -  BUT I was
running Palm 0S 3.5 - and I just downloaded from the Palm site an
update to the OS, now 3.5.2, which Palm says fixes "minor" problems
with crashes with third party systems.
I have already returned my Dock V and Gamepad - so I can't say if this
helps - but in all fairness must post this possible source of the
problem.

 

Please help me just this once.

Crypt Level 2 has a Zombie room. If you try and move, you will
encounter a Zombie or Zombie Lord. Think about it. Spoiler below.

I can't seem to get to the Silver Key. I'm in the NW room, but
everytime I move, a zombie (or zombie lord) pops up blocking my way.

I've moved around the room and killed like 20 of them so far with no
luck.


How do you get around them?

Dear Morgan,

You might want to ask if any of the beta testers have new adventures
nearly ready to go.

I know with Duke Nukem- see previous post on free computer game
adventures- many people started building adventures who did not
finish them.

Dragon Bane 1 was fun, you should buy it.

My wife talked me into creating a Dragon Bane 2 Engine Adventure
(DB2EA) a few days ago- and if it works she will also be writing one-
but I don't know if either will ever be finished.  If we do finish
them, I don't know if we will release them to the public (freeware,
shareware, commercial ware).  I just spent a 12-18 hours adding 5
spells, 2 items, 2 characters and 1 class to SampleAdventure.  Not to
mention, I still haven't fixed the summoned elementals in HERO_VB.TXT
yet, which reminds me I have to ask Gabe and Jason something.

I must admit I was hoping DB2ACK would include the maps from "Return
to Kra'an" and I could play it with new characters, classes, spells,
items and monsters.  Mythological Software realizes the source code
to the maps is worth lots o' currency and have not released them.
The map, character, class, spell, item and monster files are all
compiled together, so you need the map's source code.  I have spoken
to Gabe and Jason about other aspects of DB2E.  I believe this
integral compiling was a conscious decision on their part to preserve
game balance, simplify the programming and give the map's creator
ultimate control on the game balance for each map.  The creator can
decide to release the source code for maps, characters, classes,
spells, items and monsters or just the compiled adventure.  They have
generously supplied all the source code for "Return of Kra'an" except
the maps.  Thus eliminating man years of work for an aspiring DB2EA
writer.

If you ask nicely, a bunch of people on the Internet might get
together a "dungeon tile" shop.  Each tile could be designed to link
to other tiles using an agreed upon format, the simplest would
be "forward movement" at (1,1) and (25,25) and "backward movement" at
(25,1) and (1,25).  By simple chaining the tiles, you could build
quick dungeons.  The occasional non-tile levels could be thrown in
for variety or it could be a straight "dungeon crawl".  "Dungeon
Crawls" would just need a beginning level, with backward movement
removed, and an ending level, with forward movement removed.

Sincerely yours,
Nuke 'em from 20'
