A more newcomer
Posted: Mon Jan 02, 2023 4:56 pm
Hello to all
I'm Eric, and new to this forum.
I was playing DM and CSB something like three decades ago.
I have been delighted to find DM for Windows (DOSBox version) and even more to discover CSBWin.
Big congrats to Paul for the tremendous job he did and for the pleasure he brought to us!
I might be asking a couple of silly questions, while trying to use CSBWin and CSBuild, so apologies in advance.
Apologies also for my English, not be native (I'm French).
Just before switching to CSBWin, after finishing legit DM, I played with encryption/CRC of dmsave.dat files.
After many trials, I could edit the file to set the experience at the level I wish.
When I was 15 y.o. it was not a problem to throw chests for two hours and get ninja levels.
Lacking of time, I needed to speed-up the leveling process a bit but did it only when I reached the rat generator level.
You most probably all have already high-level characters but happy to share my dmsave.dat edited file if someone needs it.
Using the encyclopedia, the interactive map and the walkthrough I completed CSB and am now fully exploring the dungeon.
