signifying END OF GAME in a custom dungeon

Post by Halluinoid »

as you complete level after level the thought occurs, how does this finish? a glorious sign comes up? GAME OVER

well how have other modders shown the user that they have battled through to the end? any tips? :D

You call a completeGame() function using a hidden plate, or a timer to call. Then you can make a cinematic folder in your mod_assets directory, and set up music, splash screens, and text to display in whatever configuration you like :) This thread might help you further.

Another way to end the game is to spawn 2 ogres in a tight corridor - one in front and another behind the party. Some say that Msyblade's solution is more preferred, though. ;)

I've played a mod like this, just because the person who made it didn't know how to end the dungeon. (Or was it because he didn't want you to win? mmmmm....)
Did you visit the Wine Merchant's Basement? And heard about the Awakening of Taarnab?
