Not really; as far as I recall, there so often seems to be only me or one or two others around. I imagine it would be very hit and miss whether I ran in to somebody from a guild.

Hi Leaf,

Well, I have been naughty and poked around in the maps, and it seems being a guild member gives some advantages. Am I right, that there is at least one guild with a teleporter to City de Clouds? As far as I can see, the only way up there, otherwise, is to pass first the dragons and then ...

Guilds - who owns them?

Who is it that actually sits on the guilds on metalforge? I would like to join one of the guilds, but they appear to be rather elitist sects - no list of members, no information about how to join etc. The effect of this seem to be to create a game in two tiers - the common tier, where you have to do ...

Western Navar Tower

I am now level 93 or so, but there is a few maps that I still can't get through. One of them is Western Navar Tower, level 29, which is full of dragons and where magic does not work - I took a sneak look at the code and found there is a way, if I can kill a couple of dragons with karate and can ...

Ragnor: Thanks for the hints!

I have been swamped with work for a long time, so I haven't had time to play.

The thing about the torch - I seem to be really stuck there. What "slightly different way" can there be? How can I get the torch without going in and picking it up?

Unreachable maps?

I have recently tried to find my way into some of the maps I haven't been in yet, such as the Shining Tower and Eureca's Castle lvl 9. I have, admittedly, been cheating to the extent that I have been searching through the maps after giving up trying to find out the proper way.

It seems that in ...

How do I find such players? It seems that guilds are only for small, secret, closed groups of players, which is hardly reasonable, since being in a guild gives a player several great advantages.

Unkillable monsters?

There are some monsters that I can't touch at all, it seems: shadow tigers, chaos wyverns so far, as well as the ones in lvl 99 or 100 of the hells under one of Scorn's temples. I have had a sneak look at their stats in the list of monsters, and they seem to be invulnerable to most things - how does ...

Hi Leaf,

I figured that out after I posted the message, but it still fails with:

Couldn't stat template templates/map.template!

- and I can't see what to do about it.

crossfire-mapper: some files are missing

I have built the crossfire-mapper, but it doesn't like the maps I have. The server is version 1.60 (crossfire-1.60.0.tar.gz) and the maps are 1.11 (crossfire-1.11.0.maps.tar.gz). What it complains about is:

# ./crossfire-mapper
Initializing Crossfire data...
Unable to open /var/log/crossfire ...
