I've never seen a village turn back into a RB castle, whether burnt or not. I have seen villages recover from being burnt, though, turning back into villages...
Greetings, I've been lurking more than I should but my reasons are honest - my newest RPG is going to be released this weekend during Brazilian's XV Encontro...
Congratulations! That's cool. (Of course, I wish we enjoy an English copy. ;) I'm very glad you are happy with the results. Woohoo! Please do post linkage when...
More than once people tried to convince me to write an English version... Maybe I'll do it, but translating 264 pages is never an easy task. If someone takes...
HI.. new user here.. I'm running w2k and have been unable to get Darklands to run. Is there a documented process? I've read a lot but only found the changes...
The best way is to use DosBox to run it. You can find DosBox by googling it. If you read the Darklands archives you will find lots of discussions on using...
... Download DOSBox and D-Fend and learn how to use them then play Darklands the way it would have been when it first came out on a perfect PC for it....
In general, DosBox (easy to google) should be your best bet. The quick (and non-authoritative) answer AFAIK is: 1) Win2K doesn't have good builtin dos game...
Hi all, I've been playing Darklands since '92 and just joined this group today. I ran into something interesting! I was playing last night and encountered a...
Andrew, I looked through the Clue Book and did not see thta dwarf mentioned by name. I am just speculating, but this might be a randomly set name (selected...
... I spent hours and hours and hours, in the previous millenium, trying to get Darklands to run in Windows 95OSR2. Only a couple of years ago did I get it to...
I found dosbox by google... it works great.... use a key drive with the game becasue dosbox does not like to load up hard drive files on W2k.... works great......
... In my analysis of the string tables in darkland.exe: 0x18862c: unknown array[ 36 ] of string (null-delimited) - Names of something? - "Alveig", "Gulveig",...
... By loading pages do you mean the fade-in of menu screens in Darklands? This used to be quite slow in earlier versions of Dosbox but in the newest version...
My apologies for this Off-Topic post, but I thought the audience here might be interested... From TheOneRing.Net (TORn) web-site: New Online Gaming Laws in...
I just got Darklands and spent an inordinate amount of time trying to create some characters... after which the game (or simply DOSBox) froze up on me, which...
Hi there! Good luck with Darklands to start off with - be ready for some fun gaming! :) As to the built in characters being overpowered I must admit I never ...
welcome to DL, a recurring favorite of mine since 1993. Play a lot of other games but keep coming back to DL. Would suggest you try the quick start team and...
Welcome :) I did a quick test and while I didn't exactly replicate the chars (it's very hard to reverse-engineer a character), I think I got pretty close, so I...
My son is 4, and he plays the game "Fate" at his biological father's place. I was thinking about how much i loved Darklands, and how open it was compared to...
Welcome aboard and ask that Uncle if he has the original code hidden somewhere so it can be used in an update! :) For other titles like Darklands, you cannot...
Ok, it seems there is a misunderstanding here. Dwarf names are random like so many other names in Darklands (alchemists, etc, it would be a wonder to get a...
Apologies in advance for the length of this post. As prompted by Sultitan, here are all the dwarf names that the game can choose from. I also added dragon,...
Well, well, playing a few hours per week I've managed to reach year 1427. Planning to end the game by 1440 in Prag. My oldest character is 57 but we're all...
Thanks very much, Daniel. But things are even more complex when each alchemist, or lord, or schultz, etc, have a personal name ! I'm always amazed at that...
Among the many mistakes I make (I am not english, obviously), I made this rather ridiculous one: Maybe I'm just getting way more villages because dragons have ...
