ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

Uhm, wrong board? I think you may have meant to post over here?

Hi all, I've tagged and released ToME 2.4.0-ah. Source can be downloaded here: https://github.com/tome2/tome2/tree/v2.4.0-ah (Click "Clone or Download", Click "Download ZIP".) This being a .0 version and given the extent of code changes, players should probably expect a few bugs....

And the problem of using old engines/code is not that they are old it's that they plainly suck and are a pain to work with. It's what prompted me to start from a blank page for T4. It functions as "therapy" for some of us :). (... and just because I don't think I've said it before: Congra...

This might be of interest: There's talk of a ToME 2.x competition. (See also a few posts back.)

Do you really mean "source"? You can always download source archives from the GitHub repository with the "Clone or Download" button. Just press that and press the "Download ZIP" link. No; I mean source code's location archive--the above URL (hadn't been posted in this ...

@Yottle: Thanks for confirming.

It's going to go. (Maybe along with Bards/Music, actually. I love them thematically, but they just don't work in terms of game mechanics and it's got a ridiculous code footprint. We'll see on the bards, I guess.)

I think Runecrafter works in Furyband (a ToME2 mod)? Oh, I think it techincally "works", but it's not really usable/meaningful, if you get my meaning? (That's what I interpreted Yottle's comment to mean.) Did FuryBand do something drastic with the Runecrafter class/skill? I can't remember...

"Glad" to hear that it never really worked. Guess I'm going to remove it from my fork to get rid of junk usable-by-only-one-class items :). @OP: I you get an IDE which can find usages of symbols, you could start with a "Find Usages" for the "rune_spell" struct. Prepare ...

Huh, TIL, I guess .

I don't think that was ever a thing... you can use ?SatisfyHunger. (And equivalent spell effects from e.g. junkarts, etc.)

I read about removing traps, and I'm kind of torn. On one hand, it's weird to play a roguelike -without- traps. On the other hand, I can definitely get behind dumping some of the real "screw you" traps - stuff like the item scattering or (essentially) instant death ones. A trap should be ...

I've stumbled across a couple of different answers: - 2.3.11-ah seems to be the most recent "stable" (i.e. released) version (from the same repo,) but it segfaults when I try to start it up (running on CentOS 6, mind you.) User error, or Not Really Stable(TM)? I try to at least play a lit...

Even got it compiled on my sons Raspberry Pi, so he is happy as well.

Glad to hear it you got it working!

The linking issue was fixed in 7d8712ba5bcf8ba7837ca0c198f364fd208db354 -- according to the commit commit there was apparently a change in some distro toolchains which meant that "libm" was no longer automatically linked. I'm not sure if the commit will cherry-pick cleanly into what you ha...
