Before I leave for a week, here is a mostly bugfix release for RFT8:

Fixes most bugs that have been uncovered for RTF8.

Have fun!

heh... well, just remembered now (well, not really just remembered, but...), but I am going away for 2 weeks starting the 14th, so :/ guess I can work on stuff when I get back... have fun skiing. I may still end up working on monsters while I am gone... as I will have my laptop... but dont count on much.

[Shoob]

heh, and what do you know... played a female elf rogue and got a black screen first thing.

I got a bunch of this

You can still do blind tool-tips and find creatures that you can't see.

thats for dg and debugging purposes.

Spelling error;

Whilst running:

Stop reason: Interresting... should be spelt interesting (1 'r').

[Shoob]

thought I would put up a pretty picture

do I need to explain anything... (well, besides my strange skills , but I did that on purpose)
(no errors or anything either)

oh and the helm of hammerhand still hasnt been dropping for me... :/

[madmonk]

I don't seem to be able to use the 'm' key!

Also Black Bears are turning up as black squares until you hit them, then they turn into the 'q'!

[EDIT] More on the no 'm' key...

I launched my save game, and the only thing I did was press the 'm' key, so after level generation I got this in stdout.

The maze made easy!

Vision works in it!

Sorry about the m key... it's in Game.lua uncomment the line and comment the one about particles.

I cannot get the game to work properly. I lose games regularly, usually coming back up the stairs. Once it freezes I can't get it back again. I have tried deleting the offending level, but that doesn't help. Basically I can get up to level 7 or 8 but then one of these happens and I get to start over again.

[darkgod]

Damned... I though I fixed it....
I'll get to it when I get back.

Now about persistent levels nobody is firmly against it?
I kinda prefer it this way although there might be some places without it.

[Shoob]

I generally delete the level files after they are saved... allows for more game progression. but maybe make it an option like in t2 but the other way around (standard is saved levels).

I noticed that you can get uniques to re-spawn by deleting the saved level that they were on, and then restarting the game... deleting the saved level didn't have an affect if you didn't restart the game.

also I noticed that you will always be on the same spot if you go up a level in the OF or trollshaws, but it will be the wrong spot (there is a small chance it will be fine), even deleting the map doesn't guarantee you will be on the stairs.

The thing with non-permanent levels, is that you have a better chance at items than with permanent levels, making it easier even though you have to travel...

also I have yet to find a down staircase in the sandworm liar and the minotaur doesnt drop the helm (forget if you said you fixed it this rft or last).

I have more to say about undeads, but I will continue that over there... I should be back wednesday or thursday, so I can post more and work more hopefully.

[darkgod]

Yes I need to fix that

As for having enough chances at items I prefer yo have many different places with respawning actors but fixes levels.
