I just thought I'd stop in and ask where the people I was working on the 8 Bit BTCS project vanished to?
Horpner was apparently abducted by aliens...Twofinger and ZeroZero have also vanished.
Where are you guys?

Knowledge of coding isn't really needed, unless you wish to create special events that differ much from the original events. Crafting a new adventure would be quite easy if you dive into the pool of info which me and ZeroZero managed to create.
Perhaps we should try to sum our efforts up and make a PDF document which gives away the structure. I have toyed around with the idea to make a clone of Swords and Serpents on the C-64, but got stuck at the monsters and to limit the players to 4.

I was recently given a bit of a lecture at length about how "futile" making a Bard's Tale Construction Set for the Commodore 64 system is.
My response that I wish to make public for all is: I don't give a shit.
I liked the Bard's Tale series as a kid. And as a teen. And as an adult, I still do.
I remember being about 12 years old, and scrawling on a piece of scrap paper a note in crayon asking Interplay to make a sort of "construction set" so that we could make our own adventures. I mailed it in.
I don't know dick about 6502 Assembly Language. I have a hard time grasping some of the concepts that Twoflower and ZeroZero and others have tossed around on this forum. But I have EVERYTHING copied into a Notepad file and when I have time I go over it. I do know CBM BASIC fairly well, but anyone following along on my dungeon level editor will know I struggled hard with the disk access routines.
I'm a second-rate C64 programmer and I know it. But I at least have the drive and the desire to make something happen....because it's a passion I have.
So don't fucking lecture me about how it's "futile". Either you want to help or you don't.
