What is Dungeon Craft?

Seriously, a real question. What is this? Can I buy this at stores, or download it. WHat does it do.

Dungeon Craft is an open source game engine modeled on SSI's Forgotten Realms Unlimited Adventures. Headed up by Richard Turner, Dungeon Craft is all the things that FRUA wanted to be. Dungeon Craft supports resolutions up to 1024 by 768, also allowing 800 by 600 and 640 by 480. It allows 8, 16, and 24 bit color depths in a variety of standard graphics formats including .bmp, .gif, .jpg, .pcx and .png. Levels, pictures, text- all of these areas have an incredibly high number of allowances and vastly increased sizes over FRUA. The best part is that it's almost 100% customizable. There is one drawback- it is not finished yet. But, what is usable is astounding.

to download it, go to richard's site http://uaf.sourceforge.net/ from here you can download it (for free, of course) and find links to some other sites with artwork and the whatnot.

Uh, how big is this file, cuz i got a 56k.

i just checked out cocoaspud's page and it looks like the whole thing is 4.3 mb, but once you've got this downloaded, you only need to use the dc installer for future updates- it checks to see what you have and only downloads the new bits. (the big download is so big b/c of the default artwork, i suspect.)

Thanx Z. I'll hopefully download it soon, and get an understanding for it.

Don't mean to bother anyone but the DC page isn't loading for me.
