This version consists of an Atari ST disk image in ST format. This hacked version can be installed on hard disk (see documentation on the disk) and allows four saved games instead of only one. The free disk space on the floppy disk cannot store all 4 saved games along with their backup copies (8 files). You will only be able to use 3 saved games. You will have to put the game on hard disk to use them all.
Dungeon Master for Atari ST version 1.1 (English), Updated hacked hard disk version
This version made by Péter Putnik in February 2009 is based on the hacked hard disk version. It has the following additional features:
  • Can be started right from Desktop, no need for AUTO folder run.
  • All gamesave files go in same DIR as game executable.
  • After finishing play, and selecting: Quit Game or Save and Quit, it will return to Desktop.
  • Tested on ST, Mega STE, Falcon.
  • Cheat mode option: by first skill level gain character will become very powerful, so after little sleep may play much easier.
  • Patched some Timer C problems - for compatibility with Hddriver.
  • Repacked GRAPHICS.DAT with DMExtract by Paul Gross - now levels load much faster - in few seconds !
