Age of Darkness CSE edition

So I've begun this port. Enemy data and screen data needed no changes, though I added the create screen routine to the end of it, and removed 2 other programs no longer needed by the game.
I've gotten the main title menu to work, along with the help file, and it even starts up a new game and sends you in to wander the map:
I need to go through and fix issues with the events program, and then work on combining the village setup to include the code for the armory, tavern and shop so it combines four programs into one.

Looks nice so far. I forgot if that game had random encounters since it has been years since I played the 83+ version, but if there was, then will the encounter rate be modified to accomodate the larger maps?

Random encounters will definitely be a thing, but was disabled since that part is no where near ready yet. And all it is is randInt(1,6) and I think it looks to see if it comes back as 5 to engage battle, all other values kick back to the game engine.

1,6 seems a little overboard IMHO for a map engine where you can actually walk inside maps. If someone is unlucky this ensures he'll run into enemies every step or two. In ROL series encounter rate requires a minimum of 10 steps between battles and is capped at 50 steps. It was a counter that decreased every step. Mana Force 1 used RandInt(1,50).

Yeah, at first it kind of sucks, but once you level up the first time, things pick up quite quickly and you can knock enemies out with just a hit or two, racking up the gold and items.
AS of Saturday, the ingame menu and village setup were all ready, just needs to be tested. This reduced the amount of sub programs by about 6. Last thing I have to do is make the battle system work, and begin testing.

Been a while since I've updated. I've gotten a huge list of bugs worked out, and the game is overall functional, to what I've tested (I've made it to the first dungeon before initiating the battle system, various event triggers work in the first lands, and the battle system is functional). One item I have to deal with concerns the enemies and battling. Basically:
Honestly, I really consider it a non-issue. It basically gives you a free show, and with how hard it can be to progress, that's kind of important :p
What do you all think? Shall I keep it as is, or should I attempt to 'fix' it?

Sorry for the double post, figured this was important enough to warrant it, though

Version that seems playable is now available. Please play through and save often. Let me know if you find any bugs in the game!

I have a minor suggestion: Instead of having the player inputting their name right next to the ?, have a space after that so that it looks more comfortable. Other than that, looks amazing!

I really need to try this out when I have some time.
@Outerme I think it's because he's sticking to the original as much as possible in terms of look. The game came out in early 2002 or so.

I have to admit that the space didn't occur to me as I was tweaking things. I might do that to upload with any possible future version that might need uploading.
I see the Cemetech file is up to 10 downloads, I hope no one finds bugs, but if you do, I'll need to know so I can implement a fix

Important update! Bugs fixed regarding events system which correlates to chests and bosses being interactable with the player, along with a few other small issues that I had noticed. Please let me know if you come across anything else!

Thanks for the update. I will try to load this on my calc or WabbitEmu as soon as I have extra time.

*sigh*
Another update, seems my fix to take care of certain broken map events broke other events. I -think- this is the last bug. :|

While I'm awaiting further bug reports or lack there of, I'm working on Calcopoly again to try to get that wrapped up. Still plenty to accomplish with it.
From there, I am going to -try- to focus on some assembly learning. I have a plan for a project that will rock hard on the CSE, and possibly on the monochrome calcs, pending how easy it will be to backport.
