And 0F is only one byte so it can't have a low and high byte. :? You're completely right. In my wrong thinking: low byte: bit0-3 high byte: bit4-7 Also, what bits give which "attack text"? I don't have the whole code in mind but you can find it out with this extract from the combat file (...

byte 00 to byte 0f is the name including plural of the name. Then: byte 10 and 11: HP max byte 12 and 13: HP min byte 14: number of monsters byte 15: low byte: advance speed; high byte: unused byte 16: AC byte 17: used for XP calculation byte 18 to byte 0B: attack type (e.g. melee attack, spells, br...

I am compiling my maps in preparation to post them here, if that's okay?

Yes, that's ok! Thanks!

And with that, I have beaten the game. Well done. I hope you had fun and I hope that it was sometimes was annoying with the riddles and fights. The ending was kind of pretty much the same as BTI - kill bad guy, Kylearan appears and says "Yo, good job Dawg, here's some XP lmao" and vanishe...

His AC went back to L0 from -7, so I presumed since his Dex stat went back to 18 everything else did as well.

Ok then you have found another bug of the original game...

Dude. It's PHYLACTERY. Not "phylacter". :lol: After diving into the pool of boiling liquid (SPOILER ALERT - it's a tile-for-tile reproduction of Mangar's Tower Level 5 from BTI), my entire party got poisoned, so I cast REST, and it cured the "Old" status as well. Did you check y...

GAME-BREAKING BUG ALERT The "possession" trap at 1N, 20E keeps auto-repeating, trapping the player and preventing any progress. Seems like you forgot to set the "clear" flag once the party cures the DISP member and discontinues combat. The 'possession' is three times (better tha...

What "already known bug"?

After I finished all the monsters for the new game, I found this bug in the original game. So I had to update some of my creations...
It seems that I forgot the Beholders...

Nice conversation....

Boy are you ever stingy with XP when it comes to Beholders - 228 for fighting 10 of them?

This must be that already known bug. I thought I had fixed it for all monsters... So probably not for the 'easy' beholders...

I was merely asking for the sake of accurately mapping the level.

Ok, understood!

What, specifically, happens when one ventures down to level 2 without whatsisnuts' skull with them?

The only difference are the five flags. But I think it's nearly impossible to success at level2 with these hindrances.

Are those the 5 flags that get set when one doesn't have the "Skull" item on them?

The skull and the five flags have nothing to do with the 'four'. Did you collect the four letters?

I presume failing to enter level 2 of the Crypt renders every single square with the following: - Anti-Magic - Spinner - Magic Point Leech Zone - Darkness - Silence Did I miss anything? "Speak the four as one word"... It seems you have found what you need for level2. Yes, the four letters...

So did you add items to the existing ones, or did you just change existing items?

Since there is a fix number of items, I just changed the name and attributes of some items...
