Too overpowered?

They're no curare, but are nice in conjunction with poison against trolls and other monsters with hyperactive health regeneration.

I think those are good ideas. Have the devs given this any attention since?

Dpeg - yeah I get that, and I agree. I guess my situation is just different... I have mild RSI and being able to use the mouse to move to an explored part of the map without having to pressing a few keys a lot of times helps. Plus, being able to see monsters' equipped weapons saves time in a fight w...

As a long-time rogueliker (grew up on ADOM), I can appreciate the console version, but when there is such a NICE tiles version available as there is here, why not go for the BMW instead of putting around in the Golf? I don't mean to be antagonistic, but out of curiousity: what does console have that...

Minmay- assuming new players to Crawl hadn't played any other roguelikes, why would playing console allow them to better recognize monsters than with the tiles version? The name of the monster shows up in the dialog box at the bottom anyway when they come into view, attack, et cetera.

DukeVonBathrobe: Ooo, always love something complex. Seems like too often people want to go the other direction.

Any other artists like that?

Tiles, please. Can get much more information at a glance.

D'oh, didn't realize you were a Linuxite.

Good lord man, just use Fraps. Been using it for years. In Settings: record full-size, 30 fps, use external mic. The process cannot be made any easier.

This is probably a stupid question, but here goes. Does the ability to land a spell on an enemy that requires a check against their magic resistance continue to go up even after maximum spell power is reached for that spell if I continue to increase the governing spell school skills for that spell? ...

Well Step out of Time worked a charm - made Mennas fall asleep in a corner of one of the mini vaults. However, that character later fell to orbs of fire and ancient liches on Zot:5. RIP Vorin. May your wand of teleportation have more charges next time.

Didn't think of Step out of Time... Was just planning to stair dance them like I always do. Will really suck if Step doesn't make at least Mennas go away, though lol.

Blacksheep: they are both artifacts, so no further enchanting.

Guess you guys are leaning more towards the chainmail, then.

Tell me how I have upset you, RNG, and I will try to make amends.

Whatever I have done, I am sure it does not warrant including Mennas in the V:8 welcoming party.

I'm thinking massive Slouch spam, but any advice would be very welcome.

In general, which would it be better to have: 8 more AC or 8% more GDR? I have a +12 chain mail and a +4 plate armor. Obviously the chain mail will let me cast better, but just in terms of melee survivability, which would be preferable? If it's close, I would prefer the chain mail because I do want ...

I am ecstatic. I don't know how many hundreds of characters had to die to give me the knowledge I needed to get that orb to the surface, but it has been a blast. For a time I was obsessed with Octopode wizards and the idea of having eight rings. Alas, they were ultimately all too squishy or I never ...

So excited that I won, I apparently forgot that I had been using my dropbox folder for my DCSS game.. gawd. So, I found it - thanks guys.

Are you sure? I cannot find that character's name anywhere in that folder, though there are TON of others :-)

.

This is simultaneously one of the happiest and saddest moments I can remember. I have been victorious in getting the orb to the surface, and was looking forward to seeing my dump file (the one the game is supposed to create automatically for you when you win). I searched everywhere for it, including...

Is it possible for there not to be a Swamp entrance anywhere in the Lair? I have auto explored all eight levels but can't find it this game. Shoals and the Slime Pit are here, though.

You mean right click on the window (and select Properties) once you run it, right? Worked a charm! Thanks.

Fixed it. Turns out it's a problem with the installer version. Running the standalone console or tiles versions works A-ok.

Now if I can just figure out why the console version window is so tiny...

Experiencing what I imagine is a rather common problem, but could find no real help for it: I am getting the above message when I run the console version of DCSS (and the tiles version of the game is crashing before I can even see what happens, the cause of which is probably the inability to create ...
