Re: Moving Save Files from computer to computer

Is it possible to move save files from one computer to another? I see in the "Save" folder that there have been 2 files added to delete.me: global.svg and test (test is the name I gave my save file). In your case, 'test' is your save file. You can move 'test' to a different computer. This...

Re: Wiki - Lord Dimwit's Guide truncated

At least under linux running firefox the fix to Lord Dimwits Strategy Guide was not effective.... I haven't done much wiki work but I am creating an account now and if possible I will correct it. *No, no, no! That is a trap!* If you create an account, then you will never correct the guide! As I alr...

Re: Things that make you go Aaaargh!

In general, ToME has too many bugs. May 2006, I decided to try some game named 'ToME'. I started the game and it crashed. I needed to write my own bug fix, BugReport615 , to prevent the crash. I am lucky to know some C language, otherwise I would never be able to play the game. I hear that Windows u...

Re: Can stat drain traps reduce the maximum level of a stat?

No, traps cannot do this. The function inc_stat() in spells1.c always stops at 18/100, which is 28.

About your Thunderlord Sorcerer, is it Classical or Hermit? The -3 to dexterity of a Hermit might put you at 27.

Re: Missed out on gondolin quest

Will you come [y/n] No hint to the question I have to answer. So I say "no" (defensive). Afterwards it prints the question and the response to my answer. Turns out someone wanted me to help save Gondolin, and basically said "up yours" in response to my "no".... being f...

Re: DitL of Nelim, hobbit burglar, ironman_rooms (spoily)

In most Angband variants, your dig speed is determined by your currently-wielded weapon's weight, your strength, and any bonus to digging. Shovels and picks are only especially useful for digging because they have bonuses to digging; otherwise they're just normal weapons. I played no other variant ...

Re: Wishing for a piece of the relic?

is there any way to access messages beyond ^P? I believe that ^P shows all available messages. If you set compress_savefile to no in Efficiency Options (press '=' then '4'), then the game will include the ^P messages in the save file. There is still some limit; I opened my save file and the ^P scre...

Re: Just found Ringil with a Sorc. Similar experiences?

Note that Ringil is completely useless to Sorcerors because, not being a magestaff, it causes your spell failure rates to increase to a minimum of 25%. Actually, I think that's an Eru thing, not a sorcerer thing. I am looking around the source code. This penalty to spell failure rates is only for S...

Re: Just found Ringil with a Sorc. Similar experiences?

Agrelaa was a male high-elf worshipping Manwe. He was a Loremaster with skill points to Archery, Summoning and Symbiosis. He went to Deathwatch (level 21 of the Orc Caves) and slew Grishnakh, who dropped Ringil! Agrelaa had Weaponmastery at only 02.000 (never raised), but he wielded Ringil. He like...

Chapter 2: Scummer of Mushrooms '...what is a hobbit? I suppose hobbits need some description nowadays, since they have become rare and shy of the Big People, as they call us. They are (or were) a little people, about half our height, and smaller than the bearded Dwarves. Hobbits have no beards.......

Re: Wiki - Lord Dimwit's Guide truncated

I was using the wikis when they failed. I clicked 'create new page', that worked. Then I copied the Lord Dimwit's Guide from the old wiki and clicked 'Preview' in the new wiki (to see where to change the syntax). The preview never came, but I lost access to both wikis. About 4 to 8 hours ago, I had...
