| 2037.1 | Hasn't made it to NORSE yet | CSOA1::LEN | David M. Len | Tue Dec 27 1988 13:03 | 15 |
| This is the first time I have tried to upload something to NORSE.
And FTSV is having a big problem with the network path going away.
I will let FTSV continue until it finishes or exceeds the retry
count. And since I will be on vacation for a few days, if the transfer
fails, someone could try copy it. It is on
RESORT::USER_DISK:[LEN.AMIGA.GAM]MORIA21.ARC
If it hasn't made it to NORSE when I get back, I will try again.
I did do a brief check on memory. It looks like 512K systems are
just out of luck. I think it takes about 592K to load.

| 2037.3 | Quick description | FLOCON::KENNEDY | | Wed Dec 28 1988 05:05 | 8 |
| It's a dungeons & dragons game. On the VAX, you play using single
keystroke commands. It's very witty and quite amusing in parts,
a sort of follow-on to ROGUE (if you know it).
There's a notesfile about it on LOOP::MORIA (KP7).

| How do you pick stuff up??
I tried walking over things (Sling,Scroll,etc...) and it tells me
what they are but I can't pick them up to use.
Also, there is no message about my pack being too full or things
being too heavy.

| In the VAX version you simply have to walk over things and a message
like 'You now have a staff of light (3 charges)' is displayed. To
see what is in your pack, I believe the command is 'i' (inventory).
Is the 'h' (help command) not available?

| try the "," key. I was hunting for the same thing last week, tried
hitting every key, got a message that said something like "pickup
mode on" (can't remember the exact message, the default appears
to be pickup mode off).

It's not in the menu? (pickup key)

| 2037.8 | Already a newer version | CSOA1::LEN | David M. Len | Wed Jan 04 1989 14:03 | 4 |
| I just got a copy of Moria 3.0 a couple of days ago. I got it on
a bootable disk that is over 95% full. There is also an extensive
doc file. I assume warp would be the best way to provide a copy?
I'll try to get some time to upload a copy to NORSE.

| 2037.9 | Figured it out | DNEAST::PARENT_TODD | | Wed Jan 04 1989 18:03 | 5 |

Pressing KP 5 will pick up an object once you are standing on it.

| 2037.10 | Unofficial Moria 3.0 available | CSOA1::LEN | David M. Len | Wed Jan 04 1989 20:33 | 8 |
| Well, a copy of Moria 3.0 as a warp file has been copied to
NORSE::AMIGA:[UPLOAD]. My friend, that gave me the copy said that
it is sort of a unofficial 3.0 release. The developer had a hard disk
problem and lost a good bit of the source for this 3.0 executable.
He is currently working from memory to redo the lost modifications.
So, when I can get an official 3.0, I will send it again. But for
now this 3.0 seems to have number of graphic improvments over 2.1.

| 2037.11 | Couldn't extract the tracks. | DNEAST::SEELEY_BOB | | Wed Apr 11 1990 03:03 | 4 |
| Has anyone had any luck in warp writing (unwarping) the 3.0 warped
version from NORSE. If so, what strange tricks did you have to pull
before it would 'unwarp' without a crc error near the middle of the
tracks?
|
| 2037.12 | Me either | STC::HEFFELFINGER | | Mon Jan 09 1989 22:27 | 13 |
| I've had a similar amount of unluck. My experiences (all 2 of them)
with Warp have been traumatic. I remember having nothing but trouble
when I tried to unwarp the DungeonMaster demo. I think I finally
rebooted my machine with a virgin 1.2 Workbench and it worked.
That did not work with Moria.
But 2.1 is keeping me happy for the moment. Thanks and praise be
to the one who programmed it and the one who made it available on
the E-net.
Currently playing Hubert Green, 6th level ranger.....

| 2037.13 | Corrected warp for Moria 3.0 | CSOA1::LEN | David M. Len | Tue Jan 24 1989 23:29 | 7 |
| re .-1 and .-2:
Sorry, but the problem with the warp file was mine. I was not really
monitoring the upload and I guess that it must have terminated with
an error before the entire was completed. I have reloaded it to
RESORT::USER_DISK:[LEN.GAM]MORIA30.WRP. And I will also copy it
to NORSE::AMIGA:[UPLOAD]. Again, sorry for the problem.

| I have not had much time to play this version of Moria, but the
unwarped floppy can be booted or used from the workbench. There
are icons for the doc and help files, as well as starting the game.
There is also an icon that can be used to start Moria with a saved
character.
If there are still problems, I will try to address them.
Would the manager of the NORSE:: areas, please delete the old copy
of MORIA30.WRP now on AMIGA:[GAMES].

| 2037.15 | done | IGETIT::ELLISM | Purring on a straight six.... | Wed Jan 25 1989 14:12 | 5 |
