For games that run too fast (most everything made in 286 era and earlier), find "moslo" or "mo'slo" or something.

"mo'slo <game>" runs <game> at approx 8086 speed I think. Read the docs...

Might even run megaman.

My config.sys and autoexec are the same I had before windows found any of my boxes, never had memory problems with dos games... I think if you hold F8 during boot you get a menu where you can choose to start in command line mode. Try that and then run memmaker (or whatever). Remember to do the F8 th...

Feign death is totally useless as is. It's only castable at a grouped pc with < 50% hp, and disengages and _sleeps_ the target. Then the mob is free to go at the target pc again... This from an 8th circle spell. Illusionists have another spell which hides them. I suggest the spell is changed so it's...

Nassis

Massmorph's effect is broken when someone who is grouped but _not_ in the room moves.

This has to be a bug...

Nassis

Nightmare has lag, and as far as I know it's the only combat spell that has.

Why? Remove the lag and up its damage slightly and the spell is great.
(Well, except it needs to be better at stunning whatever it's targeted at. Keep room stun as is, just give a penalty to the target...)

Nassis

Hm. Seems strange that Corth can enter leuth with cself when I cant. Neither can a drow with disguise, btw.

Hope thats not intentional...

Nassis

As the spell is now, there is no hiding involved. And I know it's the old monk skill, but it makes _no_ sense for an illusinist spell to work that way.

Nassis

Whenever a yuan kills a mob with snakebite, there should be a spammy echo of the snake eating his victim and the snake wouldnt have to eat for a mud month.

Thatd be cool.

Nassis

Ah, I thought things switched off my shade more now. Probaly the same thing. Every single time yesterday I tried to tank some mobs with my shade, they switched off it right after I started it on 'em. BTW, could illusionist shades be made not undead? I keep forgetting and get picked on by cityguards....

Nassis

The way stun works now, whenever something is stunned and is hit with a new stun effect, the new stun is ignored. The way that makes sense (to me anyway) is to, whenever something already is stunned and is stunned again, let the longer duration apply. Say I hit a mob with spook and just after a sham...

Nassis

This would be no problem if true sight had as long duration as detect magic/invis.
Please change this, it would make the spell far less useless for evils...

Nassis

How about giving illusionists a spell that shields a room from daylight sufficiently to let ultras see? Maybe even one that follows the caster (like psi globe) or entire zone... As a lot of what they do is manipulate (the plane of) shadows and what is seen, it would be very appropriate for the class...

Nassis

Corth (and others), gheal is a unique spell that does something vital in many situations. Without it, many fights become pretty much impossible (to do in "non-twink" ways (I want to write a long rant here...)). With a too long casting time, it becomes impossible to keep up with area-damage output fr...

Wouldn't yuan a-p make more sense than orc?
Orc is shaman race, and yuans are very religous...

Very not PC and damned fun.

dk is really very simple. for every level range there are a few places with mobs to xp on. if no appropriate tank is by fountain, run around to those places and find a tank/group. be polite. be there when you ask to group (maybe put in some socials and stuff). it makes the troll (or whatever) in que...

What he ^ said. Tailring slot, keep hometown hard.

If the Great Gods feel like beeing nice to snakes, save against bash/more int/agi too (maybe we would see a slithring non-caster!)

Nassis

I wrote a long post on why this should be coded asap, but on looking it over found it was all written elsewhere in this thread. Just please, please, please put in several days corpse rot for eq'd corpses. If this leads to even more corpses littering everywhere, put in minimum limit on # of items tha...

Ah. The "errors at the .o files" error. That tells me all I need to know. This is why I won't work in support. http://www.sojourn3.org/ubb/smile.gif Anyway, you probably have your dynamic libraries in a nonstandard location. I assume this helps you as much as "errors at the .o files" helps me unders...

untar with "xvf". add z for gzip'ed file and Z for compress'd file. as in "tar xzvf <filename>". to find whether the file is compressed somehow, use the "file" command or look at the file extension - ".gz" or ".tgz" for gzip, and ".Z" for compress. If you have an old tar, you might have to gunzip or...

Nassis

Yuan-Tis got no real advantages at all. Maybe except there are fewer mobs aggro to them innhyssk... Many people (most I've talked to) think yuans should have some better stats, or even ears, but I'm pretty sure that wont happen. So. How about letting yuan innate bite poisonous at higher levels? Bite...

While 'rainbow pattern', 8th illusionist spell, seems to do nothing (or have a duration of about .5 seconds).

(But I'd rather see change self fixed and go have a look in wd.

Nassis

Galok: I know. I have of course tested with non-detect too. I tested change self just after it went in the game, some god (shev?) said something like "ok, thanks for testing it, it'll be fixed". So I am fairly sure that it _is_ broken. The "cast with no argument to remove" also does not work. Lil' t...

Nassis

Could someone please fix change self? Seems all it does now is change description, and to a very limited number of races too. The main point of it, avoiding aggro [evil|good]race mobs seems not to work at all. And please have a look at rainbow pattern too. It either doesn't work or has a _very_ shor...

Nassis

The only reason I can see for the hitroll change is hitters doing too much damage. But those hitters are not warriors, it's rangers (and maybe rogues, but it's rangers damage and xp I've seen complaints about). So either keep the change and give warr's a (flat) to-hit bonus, or remove change and red...

I for one like the new flee.

Is anything happening with this spell? It ... didnt work very well when it was enabled, and I've heard nothing since. IMO make (at least) one possible desc from each (player) race (with proper race-flags, be big, unbashable ogre or tiny, unbashable cave fish (maybe not http://www.sojourn3.org/ubb/sm...

The skeleton of a giant phantom lizard stands here.

Just wrong. Please make phantom steeds not leave corpses...
Also, both they and summoned shades shout be insubstantial (or whateveritis, not clog one-way rooms...) and float.

Nassis

Spam control is always good, but what Lyt said.
Just displaying any hunger/thirst message when one starts memming (or tries to) would help.

Nassis

No, the simple solution is killing (or rather vastly reducing) damage xp.
Damage xp creates many more and harder problems than those it solves, IMHO.

Shadow bolt (and shadow burst) are both listed in my skill list as illusion (well, cold http://www.sojourn3.org/ubb/smile.gif spells and notch invocation skill. Someone (shev?) also said shadow bolt is supposed to be invoc. To shev's points: 1) There are, and I am. http://www.sojourn3.org/ubb/smile....

Kilo: pull up help files and see, enchanters get 9 different damage spells, illusionists 8. Enchanters do not get damage on circles 3, 5 and 10, illusionist not on 3, 4, 6 and 8.

Illusionists suck. I promised myself I'd wait until I got 21 before I whined on the board, so now it's time... :P I know I'm not high level and am probably a twinkish dork, but illusionist still suck. So far, anyway. First, the spells we get that are not the same as all other mages: 1st: invis on lv...

I'm impressed. Quick and sane response. Tho I dont quite understand why mm should do more dam than later spells, I'll accept it... The other stuff you said makes sense.
