Long time no news

There were no news for a long time now. And there were nothing to post for a long time. The database project is still in diapers. I'm very busy attending the faculty and working on the Chimera MMORPG. Do not expect new downloads before 2004.

break!

OK! I've decided to take a break on dungeonREALM development. It works good so far and there is no need for further enhacements. Though, I'll add those specific item generators if someone just wants to generate only a magical weapon or something like that. Oh, I almost forgot. There were some complications while converting to databases so you'll wait a few more weeks for the first dungeonREALM DB Project release.

Converting to dabases is faster than I've thought. I've allready finished the coin generator and started working the gem and art generator. In one day! Expect beta releases soon!

Development (and other) news

Today I started some database exploration. I plan to rework the whole application to use databases. This will make dungeonREALM totally cusmotizable. You will be allowed to make your own treasure (and later encounter or NPC) generation rules. You will finally have that Forgotten Realms treasure generation rules.
Do not expect the new version too soon because I'm just a learner database programer so I have to learn things before I release the first version.
I found a two bugs in Treasurer today. It never generates cursed scrolls and it always generates at least one specific cursed item. So there's another maintance release today. I also added an option to generate or not to generate cursed items. Be sure to download it!
There are other nice news, too. I will register a domain name so there will be a www.dungeonrealm.com (or .net or .org) in a week or so!

Another redesign

Another page redesign today. I got my hands on Macromedia Studio MX so I decided to make a new site. Those made with Microsoft FrontPage suck. They are slow and do not work as I want them to work. I also included a news script on the page so news will be a bit more common than before.
