Dgamelaunch play as guest
|
| |
Greetings, I was setting up my own nethack server just for fun and I got dgamelauch 1.5 working fine and I thought it would be great if people could try it out without having to register. So I modified the code a little and here's the patch: [link] Any feedback on it would be great. Basically it works by creating a... more »

Sporkhack rogue gear
|
| |
Some of the changes in sporkhack make it harder on rogues, but there's other changes that more than make up for it. First go human. I know this causes problems with hunger and poison, but the final stats will make up for it. Next be a neutral rogue. This doubles your chances of getting Magicbane, and makes it easier to handle.

Maximize (desirable) permanent intrinsics
|
| |
This is my first post to RGRN. I'm one of those eternal nethack dabblers, who's never persevered to ascension. My question is: how does one maximize/optimize the desirable permanent intrinsics one could potentially acquire? I suppose this depends on race/role and on the edibility of rings, etc, so what is the best... more »
