   What engine for Dungeon Master/Eye of the Beholder clone?
  Hi folks,i'd like to code a typical oldschool "SSI Dungeon Crawl Game"like Dungeon Master or the Eye of the Beholder trilogy:http://www.geocities.com/Area51/Dungeon/7494/nythra/neye1_8.gifFights will be round based, the rest of the game will mostlystay as it was in the good SSI years.Now my question, since i have nearly no experience in graficprogramming (i do code Java for more than 4 years, and havewritten small games like text-adventures), i am unsurewhat to use to accomplish my goal. I definitly want to stickwith C#, but i think i would be better off with an enginethan already does all the grafical stuff i need.Please post any good engines or tutorials which i could findhelpful.Many thanks in advantage.   
  Weil das Spiel langsam ist und Sie Java mögen, können Sie Java benutzen.Nach etwas Gedanken möglicherweise konnten Sie Flash benutzen. Ich denke, der populär sein würde.   ;Quote:Original post by JRaveyWeil das Spiel langsam ist und Sie Java mögen, können Sie Java benutzen.I didn't understand a single word of what you said, but I'm pretty sure that your are totally wrong.

Regards,   ;  I am fond of Truevision3D.  They have very good C# support, especially in thier newest version, it is a true managed DLL.  I find it pretty easy to use and it will be able to do what you are looking for very easily.theTroll   ;Quote:I didn't understand a single word of what you said, but I'm pretty sure that your are totally wrong. It takes a remarkable level of arrogance to say that somebody is wrong when you don't even understand them.  I would translate it for you, but since you apparently know everything, I should spend that time praising your glory instead.;  JRavey,I'm sure the poster was just joking when they made that comment (That's how I interpreted it).code_nerd,I agree with Emmanuel Deloget that you should try to create a 2D engine as part of your effort (mainly just for the experience).  If you don't care about kind of stuff then you could use Truevision3D as TheTroll pointed out.  I've had good experience with it.Klotus
