Note: All changes are behind the "Faithful AD&D rules" flag.
Fix a bug in the original gmaes, where projectiles would deal
an incorrect amount of damage (always 1d1):
- projectile weapon id is attached to a FlyingObject and checked
when FlyingObject hits a monster or the party
- bump the save format version to add a new field to FlyingObject
(the new 16 bit field replaces the existing unused 8 bit field)
- fix a bug in the original code where a projectile weapon thrown into
the 3D view would inflict projectile damage (should be 1d1)
- patch EotB 1 Bow and Sling damage according to AD&D 2nd Ed rules
Elves get +1 to hit bonus with bows and swords, according to manual
Patch EotB 1 NPCs Beohram (paladin) and Ileria (female)
The first level will now load up when selecting 'start default party' and it is possible to walk around a bit. The Gui (playfield, compass, inventory) is still completely broken, but at least the level blocks and some of the decoration shapes are drawn correctly. Monsters will be drawn, but their anim frames are mixed up, so they will always face the wrong direction and cannot visibly attack.
The game would actually allow placing the 4 horns or the large red rings from the ringmaster riddle into the inventory ring slots. Simply, because these items are flagged that way in the data file (itemtype.dat). I wasn't aware of this until I happened to come across some youtube video. The video was from DosBox, but this doesn't make a difference.
This patch prevents placing these items into the ring slots.
First efforts to get this running. The intro is shown with severe palette glitches. The Main Menu does not show, thanks to the lack of font drawing.
- implement endian aware stream wrapper for amiga files
- implement sound file handling
- implement some Amiga palette handling
- etc
Reorganize all files in sub directories. The file placement isn't as intuitive as it might be for other engines, which is probably the reason why this hasn't been done before.
