Man, this forum is like the bomb!!

Hey, does this program (Dungeon Craft) mean that people can make their own RPG?

Because that is a great idea!

You sure can, and trade them with friends and stuff.. You can make your own artwork (all the way down to the cursors and game borders)!!

Have you experimented with it much?
Because it sounds like it has some really high potential!

From what you wrote earlier Ziroc this sounds like a much improved version of Unlimited Adventure. I got bored with scripting encounters with the original but it was fun while it lasted. I for one am still interested in this project.

Dungeon Craft is very much like Unlimited Adventures in terms of how designs are created. The editor as a different layout, but the concept of levels, events, NPCs, and so on are similar to UA.

The designs you create can be played by anyone, DC does not need to be installed to play a design. Simply save your design and zip up the design folder. The default behavior of the editor is to *not* include the game executable in the design folder. The executable can be added to a design zip manually, or users can download the game executable separately from the DC site.

UA and DC are geared towards creating RPGs in the style of the original AD&D Gold Box games from SSI. Unlimited Adventures was an editor that allowed creating your own Gold Box design. It has limitations, several of them have been overcome by hacks. Some things can't be fixed though, such as the 256 color display and limits on event text. DC is an attempt to provide a modernized update to UA. Along the way several enhancements have been made at user request. There is an active group still devoted to UA, those interested should check out this site:

http://members.aol.com/autery/index.html

There are numerous resources and designs available for UA. There are a few designs in the works for DC.
