Sign me up.

I played it some years ago and would be in for a multiplayer match. Multiplayer looked much more fun to me, because it does not suffer the "save-scumming-issue". I tried to restrict myself to not save-scumm, but became weak over the course of several campaigns. I like the general design an...

I just want to add that it does run w/o problems on my Galaxy Nexus so far, but it is nearly impossible to hit any button reliable.

edit -> typo

Thanks for the quick fix. I just set up the gcc, that's why I thought it was a problem with my setup, not with crawl.

I compiled and installed gcc-4.7.1 to /usr/gcc-4.7.1 (I used this tutorial ). I created symlinks in /usr/bin: #[~$] ls -l /usr/bin/g++ lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 26 Sep 19 11:31 /usr/bin/g++ -> /usr/gcc-4.7.1/bin/g++-4.7 #[~$] ls -l /usr/bin/gcc lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 26 Sep 19 11:28 /usr/bin/gcc -> /...

you could also use iterm2 instead. iTerm2 shows flickering lines when moving, which annoys me. I saw that kilobyte commited a fix to this, but it made everything black on my screen. But with "use bright colors for bold text" and this fix it works fine. Thanks all! I'm pretty new to OSX.

Yes it is a non-US Keyboard (a german one), but I normally use a US-Layout for coding and crawling. ctrl + d works fine! Thanks.

[edit]
With US-Layout on the german keyboard it is located on the <> button between shift and y. (Or between shift and z on a US Keyboard)

On my MacBook keyboard there is now tilde (˜). I read that one can produce it by typing "option + n + space", which works fine in an editor etc. But it does not work in crawl. So how can I either input the correct key, or macro the macro menu to another key?

When I open crawl in OSX Lion, the parts of the dungeon I cannot see have the same color as ego items. Anyone has an idea how to get it back to (dark?) grey or whatever the standard is? When I use the color settings of the terminal to replace blue with grey, ego items are also grey which I don't wan...

spells that help you are definitely worth casting, most non-Troggers should learn some when possible (Blink is the most important, imo) In the case of a Lugonite blink might me superfluous. I agree that with rchandra that you should distort something quickly (especially as you mentioned that you la...

There are debian packages. I guess creating RPMs from them is not that hard.

Code:
autopickup_exceptions = <corpse,chunk

Why is it necessary to pickup corpses for this to work?

I'm not sure why you'd be worried about the backlash for unwielding the dagger. Why would you want to unwield it? You don't have anything worth swapping to, and you're not going to find a higher-damaging brand than distortion. It's also on a good stabbing tool, so you don't have to switch for that....

Hi, thanks a lot for the suggestions, as always! @ n1000: I guess i can cure this awesome mutation with a potion, like any other? @hxy: so far no tele spells, unfortunately. I'm tempted using that scroll of acquisition I had on my stash to get a book trying the lucky strike, but I guess my chances ...

Thanks to an amulet of gourmand and a staff of wizadry I had shatter castable after lair / before orc. After that, there were hardly any threats until the post-end-game. I ninja'd most of the pan runes, and entered my first Zig. I skipped the levels with flying monsters and jellies and had some luck...

DDEE. Shatter is kill everything in sight. My last DDEE had Shatter online after doing Lair / before orc. (With help of gourmand and a staff of Wizadry).

Died to hubris. Getting petrified and iron shot by my own ghost while fireballing it is kind of embarrassing. It was a fun character though, and my first more or less successful adventure with Ashenzari. My thing was "fireball, fireball, sticky flame, melee" and it worked very well. I wast...

How about levers or floor buttons you can use to activate secret doors? They could be generated on the other side of the dungeon, and then you'd have the fun of finding where the secret door opened. This would also allow creating all kinds of fun mini-puzzles on vaults. As I understand this is enti...

Icemail early on is so strong. I had a lot of fun with it too.

I notice that you have not trained stealth and stabbing which is a route you should consider. My first win as a reference: viewtopic.php?f=12&t=2718&p=32271#p32271

On a character that has been gifted boots of running you shall not complain about lack of rPois, heathen!

I have a game where I worshipped Fedhas and still killed almost everything with bows: http://crawl.akrasiac.org/rawdata/crate/morgue-crate-20120315-090353.txt. Off-Topic, but why did you train Inv to 27 for Fedhas? [edit] I should really think before posting. The bots answered my question , of cour...

My recent YASD did not train any weapon skill until Zot. I used untrained randarts to conserve ammo until Lair. Beginning from Lair until Zot I used the bow exclusively. From Zot until after Pan and 10 Zig levels I mostly used the bow and had no ammo problems. I worshipped Oka with an amulet of fait...

I really like the short menus. I guess when I started playing I used the i-menu for everything, but as I played more and more I started to memorize more mnemonics. You have to remember >30 shortcuts to play comfortably on console anyway, so I don't think it makes the interface more complicated. What...

If any amulet is totally useless it's guardian spirit. If I'm playing a primary caster I'm going to need the mp, and if I'm playing a more melee-based fighter I'll probably have enough hp anyway and not enough mp to make it useful enough to use up the amulet slot. (Speaking of, I just found two amu...

Ehm I must have missed it... How do you open this new menu?

In the trunk build you can use the known items menu ( ' ) to toggle autopickup behavior.

I also think they should be immune. As they are vulnerable to LRD (the EEs way of suicide bombing) they should not petrify any further.

If you check the % screen a wrathful god shows up in another color (orange or red, I can't remember which specifically). It took me about two hours from ditching Okawaru until entering the Crypt. So long after leaving Okawaru I did not consider he could still be mad, so I didn't notice that fact on...

I switched to TSO after getting the 5 early runes and clearing Zot. During Crypt I used cBlink to avoid being surrounded by Okawarus henchman. After blessing my Longbow I collected all 5 pan runes without any resistance from their guards. I didn't even use Angels except for Lom Lobo. Killing the Lor...

You cannot have the inner flame + ensalve fun with Oka!

On a DD I would go for the Vampiric Battleaxe.
I normally try to train melee after I got reasonable power on LRD.
Concerning T&D: I try to get something between 6 and 10 by Lair:8, depending on aptitude and spare XP of course.

How about address that by replacing levitation with flight instead. Also make Shoals not completely break autoexplore for no real reason. "White Fly" lets you auto-explore swamp including deep water. "Pink Fly" does not. I never explore the swamp fully because of the tedium with...

The numbers are totally off at the moment and not fit for trunk testing I'd say...

Here is what needs to be saved:

Code:: you.h FixedVector<spell_type, MAX_RECENT_SPELLS> vehumet_recent_spells; spell_type vehumet_gift_spell;

and a new duration

Code:: you.duration[DUR_VEHUMET_GIFT]

I did not disappear;) I'm just having a hard time finding the right numbers for the chance of gifts. Finding them by "Trial & Error" does take more time than I can commit at the moment. I also did not find the time to implement saving, which does not look hard though. I guess I'll be o...

FWIW I think vampiric+Necromonicon spells (especially Borg and Haunt) is considerably better than pain. The Necronomicon spells needs a lot of XP to get online though. I wasn't really casting any high level spells, I had the feeling regeneration stays quite strong throughout the game. Consider that...

Glad you found the bug. I'm normally not shy to report on Mantis. This time I wasn't sure if it is a bug, just bad luck or me missing the obvious escape option. Oh! And as you may have, or not have noted... This character went for a glorious victory . Would have been a shame if he died in that vault...

I had 10 T&D. I normally get that much by Lair, as some promising characters died after getting banished from Lair:8

that's really a nice win, how did you manage your slow leveling and skill gain? That has always turned me off of the demonspawn race. The Ice facet provided me with +10 armour quite early and I had the ring with +5 EV. This combination allowed me to delay my defensive skills till the late-game. I t...

Hi I shafted from V:1 to V:2 right into this Xom vault. I was lucky i already had a wand of teleportation, otherwise this would have been sure death. The walls are also not diggable, and scrolls could have burned (I didn't have one anyway). Is that a bug, or did I miss an obvious escape option?

This on was really fun. I did a normal Gladiator start planning to go Kiku. An early shop on D:5 had the ring of Ikhadip, for which I not had enough money yet. After joining Kiku I bought an amulet of faith for 300g. During Lair (maybe at 4 stars piety) I found my first ?acquirement and it gave me a...

The obsidian axe is one of the most infamous items in the game. It will kill you, but that's okay because it looks awesome.
