Sweeet.

Mine is from a compendium of sorts as well... called “Gamefest” “14 Forgotten Realms Classics”.

What are you running yours on? I have tried running Pools of Radiance before but it was so fast as to be unplayable.

I agree - they never get old.
When we were teenagers we had mapped the entire mines of Secret of The Silver Blades, using desktop-blotter sized sheets of graph paper. I am wanting to do that again, only starting with Pools. (New Phlan, the slums, Sokul Keep, etc...)

Would appreciate any info you have to share! Thx!

PoolRad Sokul Keep was easy. If you got the right party, and cure poisons.

The castle maze was pretty whacked, couple of transports and mirror flip wall.

Toughest maze ever was TG16 Order of the Griffon. Had an internal island maze. If you stopped or got turned around and picked the wrong wall to hug you were screwed.

Find any user friendly DB front-ends yet?

Dosbox should do it. You can download preconfigured setups for each game if you don’t know what to do yourself...the preloads are generally good, or the best that’s feasible anyway (Daggerfall didn’t seem quite right, for example).

Give Eye of the Beholder a try sometime!

(I used to have hand drawn maps of it, heheh)
