MAngband

I haven't played mangband for a while now (yeah, the mud i was playing came back up), but i thought i'd add a comment. Maegae never annoyed me once.. maybe i have high tolerance, or maybe he was just nice to me.  Either way, i didn't relate to most of the comments about how annoying he is.. but whet...

I was creeping around a greater vault at 1800 ft, as you do, and noticed a greater titan.  Having killed a lesser titan with ease, i decided that he probably wasn't harder... well, a few rounds later, thanks to my error in judgement, i was a dirty smear on the ground. I made another mistake, i snuck...

Congrats  :)

1.)  Detect objects / detect enchantments

2.)  Use "l" to look at them

If we're talking about all gear, including very rare and valuable stuff, and not just {good}, then yeah, mangband would be a very different game.  Hey.. that's the title of this thread  :D

Communist mangband, as opposed to capitalist mangband?

Hehe, i thought you might disagree.. i still hold to my point of view, although i recognize that i don't have the experience in mangband that you have, so it's possible some of my views will change as i play more. I'm not 100% sure what you mean by character flavor, and why the early levels are impo...

Hehe.. to be honest, your English is hard to understand, but it is much better than my Japanese.  ::) I'm not sure what your original question was, but on the topic of leaving {good} items in town for use by others, i disagree with Ashi that they make the game any easier, in practice.  The reason is...

Yeah.. i'm on a 56k modem, and i have occasional problems already.  The other day i was in a pit-sized room full of hummerhorns (+10 speed breeders), and my modem wasn't keeping up with the required download rate to track all of their movements and their attacks. Keystrokes i entered would take arou...

I like this idea.. sometimes it can be important to quickly say something to the party, and the new client makes it impossible to set up a macro that inputs a colon, then your party name, then another colon, which was a good way of doing it previously. Something addressing this could be done fairly ...

Probably someone got breathed at a dozen times by a giant bronze dragonfly before they managed to squash it, and came up with this idea while waiting a few minutes to be unconfused.. I think they mean that if the first breath confuses you for 100 turns, then then 2nd one should only add an extra say...

The new file you stuck up there worked fine. It's a nifty little program, but a few glitches here and there, some of them due to the limitations of VB, and many of which you mentioned in the readme files.  Still, it can be handy if you don't quite remember what some monster or item does.  Good luck ...

I downloaded the zip package, but had problems extracting one of the files in it.   For AMPFI-400-Full.zip WinZip 8.1 said: [pre]skipping: prjAmpfi.CAB          unsupported compression method 28957[/pre] WinRar didn't know how to handle that file either.  The other two files in the archive could be ...

Well, my party name just refers to another game (a MUD in fact) that those in our party have played. I've made a macro for using the party line.. Pressing the key for it sends "\e:astaria:", thus avoiding any wayward keystrokes caused by typing it in if the first colon didn't kick in ("t" followed b...

3) Don't give things of value away.  Sell them.  This keeps the game in balance.  Charity is a nice trait, but it destroys the game balance very quickly.  Besides, you might need the extra wealth sooner than you think. I usually go into the dungeon partied with friends, and we share the gear we fin...

23, M, Australia. Been playing only for a few weeks.  I've played Zangband, ADOM, Rogue.  The thing i enjoy about Mangband is being able to party with friends and going hunting together. It's also different becausesave-scumming isn't possible.. i would always use it where it was available because i ...
