Re: ToME4 review

I appreciate the comments thus far everybody.

(Btw, regarding spelling/grammar, since it is still a draft, that is not really checked yet.)

ToME4 review

I was going to post this to the Free Gamer blog (of which I'm an author) but it seems too negative for me to do so currently. I don't want it to seem like I'm sniping at the game from a distance, so I'd like a bit of feedback first so I can refine the review. Half the point of posting a review to th...

[b34] hanging when fighting wrathroot

Consistently TE4/TOME4 hangs whilst fighting Wrathroot. Usually about 10-20 attacks in. Can provide the save if needed. The contents of sterr: PANIC: unprotected error in call to Lua API (Unable to initialize: attempt to call a string value) Latest contents of the log file (too big to attach/inline)...

Re: [b34] trollmire missing final level + character duplicat

Any tips on fixing the duplicate character bug by editing the save? Or do I need to scrap that character and start over?

[b34] trollmire missing final level + character duplicates

Firstly there was no entrance to the final level on trollmire.

After going to town then back to trollmire to see if it had appeared, I couldn't get past the 1st level due to duplicates of my character standing over/near the level 1 exit.

You can download the save folder from here.

Re: Free Gamer thoughts

Also trolls. Killing 3 trolls takes a lot of clicks early in the game.

Re: Free Gamer thoughts

An autofight option would be great You mean kinda like the little ascii dude in the background of the main menu when you first load ToME? He (she?) seems pretty bad-ass--I wonder what's behind its actions... No, I mean consider the situation where you have a lot of enemies to kill: ___|ss @ssssss '...

Re: Free Gamer thoughts

A bit of sense please.
I wrote:An autofight option would be great (CTRL-click maybe) which fights until a significant event occurs
A new monster appearing is a significant event. Come on.

Re: Free Gamer thoughts

WRT #2, I said option, rather than change the behaviour to. When killing a bunch of trolls who do no damage and you have to click on them 20+ times, it is very tedious.

Free Gamer thoughts

Hi, I'm one of the authors of Free Gamer (http://freegamer.blogspot.com) which recently featured TE4/TOME4. You've created a gem of a game and I look forward to future releases. I play mostly with the mouse due to using a laptop i.e. no numpad. Some thoughts: 1. The characters that ask you to guide ...
