ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

Heya, so I've been poking at this project, going bit slowly as not familiar with codebase, but managed to get the info to work with 1.5 + possessors (almost, one skill bugs out). Sent a pull request to Castler, hopefully he's still around to update things :) If not I'll see about loading up the new...

If you look under your ToME folder, under game/modules, you'll find tome.team. This is a zip file, renamed to have a different syntax, so you can extract it using the zip program of your choice and get the tilesets from there. Note, however, that the tilesets are only licensed for use within ToME (s...

Are you sure you've read the error correctly and followed the wiki correctly? [BIRTHER] Applying descriptor base Lua Error: /engine/Birther.lua:421: attempt to call method 'initBody' (a nil value) This means that initBody is nil (i.e., you have no initBody method). It still freezes with the same err...

What error messages are you getting in your te4_log.txt?

ToME uses LuaJIT, not Lua 5.1. I don't know if the two are ABI-compatible on Windows, but I don't think they are, so that may be the source of your problem.

I haven't unlocked Yeti yet, but from looking at the source code and their description in ToME Tips, it looks like "Algid Rage"'s gold highlighting tag is incorrect.

Thanks for the feedback. I've fixed most of the issues you listed. Regarding the whitehooves' undead section, they're actually listed differently internally (as "minotaurundead" rather than "undead"), and they're a separate category in the Arena and Infinite Dungeon (the two camp...

Embers of Rage info is now up (or will be up within the next few minutes).

I also fixed the Warp Mines error reported by Jenx.

It's been quite a while since I played Pernband, but I remember some of it. Surprisingly, it's apparently still available from various places on the Internet; I think it was turned into ToME due to copyright concerns. (At the time, Anne McCaffrey was hostile toward any fan works such as Pernband.) A...

Yeah, I'm not a fan of the X-macro , as it's called. There doesn't seem to be any quite-as-compact way of doing it in C++, but that doesn't make me like it more. Template traits are quite similar, but seem quite a bit more verbose. I'd seen the technique before but didn't know of an official name f...

Like AnonymousHero said, I'd do some sort of callback map. using std::bind; // A trap handler takes y, x parameters and return an ident flag typedef std::function<bool(int, int)> TrapCallback; // A map to look up a trap type and return a handler for that type const std::map<int, TrapCallback> traps ...

If you do come across any specific questions regarding C++, I'd be glad to try and answer them. C++ is where I spend most of my day job.

I can definitely agree with you there.

ToME Tips has the list of changes for each version, which can make for pretty interesting reading. However, I only know how to download the latest version of each DLC, so changes such as this Tempest of Metal nerf don't show up. Is there a supported/standard way of downloading old versions of DLCs,...

So just a heads up, Clang and GCC support for C++14 are both really iffy on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, and probably also on Debian Stable. I'm guessing there are a lot of people using LTS as their main desktop; seeing as Canonical loves to break things all the time in non-LTS versions... Anyway, from what I...

I hate to sound annoying but it would be nice to see this updated for 1.4, and future versions. I look forward to using it when the Orc campaign comes around. 1.4 is now live. Sorry it took so long! (You're not being annoying at all. I plan on keeping up with new versions, I'm just behind right now.)
