Since freenode.net is not working anymore (got bought by other company?), I recommend to use another free and comfortable irc.

https://web.libera.chat/?channels=#knights

There we sure can chat more active about playing online or anything else.

Thank you, ImpassIve!
Indeed we rushed into playing without thinking about the lever. I thought it only operates with portcullises.
Should've read the manual entirely. It has useful info about parrying, using daggers and etc. I finished tutorial only from second run. The game is excellent!

Welcome, ZaRR!

"Tome of Gnomes" books are always rather tricky to obtain. Many times we had to call a ceasefire and cooperate in order to get it.
This specific room seems to be pretty straightforward: you need to reach and hit the lever in the center of the room (it is supposed to close the hole in front of the book), while avoiding flying daggers which are being shot from the north as you approach it.
You should probably try to find an invul/regen/super potion or scroll in order to neglect damage from the daggers.
Otherwise, I would try to reach it from the southeastern part of the room, as the raised grate has a chance to block some of the daggers.
Both methods might require multiple attempts to succeed (quite a lot, if you are unlucky)

Knights Discussion / [tiny fix] No screen flashing ...

Last post by ZaRR - September 29, 2024, 11:20:21 PM

Upon hitting wall/enemy with wand the screen will flash a bit as intended but personally found it annoying.
Decided to disable it.

knights_data\server\classic\magic.lua
line 32

Code Select Expand

function wandzap() --only in this "wandzap" func, NOT the first "zap" since it's used in teleportation/etc.
   kts.FlashScreen() -- deleted this line to get rid of flashing.
   snd_pentagram()
end

Knights Discussion / [BUG?] Map specific

Last post by ZaRR - September 29, 2024, 11:07:43 PM

Played online on solarflare public server and got confused in this place. The book is on the top on a table but seems impossible to reach it. Or I haven't play enough this game?

Thank you very much for that.

I did update the mods on the official Knights server - we have 3 or 4 of the mods running on there, so I just quickly went onto the server and edited the Lua files "in place" - but I didn't bother to make up new zip files, so it's good that you have done that.

I've tried to update most of the mods on the forum for compatibility with the new release

I love the Spiders mod! I made the graphics a little scarier and added a sound effect.
