Couldn't figure it out so I made an image in the dungeon directory named "door_interior.png" and just filled it with the Source missing texture image since I don't know what "door_interior" looked like. Doing this allowed the game to load and it's working fine now.

Do you know how to unpack the mod files or where they're even stored? Maybe I could fix it myself.

I'm sorry, it's been half a decade since I touched Dungeons of Dredmor. I don't even have it installed, and I'm pretty sure I lost all my mod files in a computer migration. I'd be pretty much useless at trying to diagnose this, since it did in fact work last time. I can only presume that I aimed something-or-other at a vanilla file that has since changed name.
PepperFoxx 15 May, 2020 @ 1:10pm 
With the mod I get the error that it's missing file "dungeon/door_interior.png" is missing, and then it crashes the game. Any help so I can be able to use this mod? I have all the content expansion DLC's too if that means anything.

@Raden: Exactly. It makes no sense whatsoever.
I say "Do not ask me for X, I will not do X," and of course, people immediately ask for X.

What kind of God damned moron reads a description that says "I will not make a balanced version of this mod" and then asks for a balanced version of the mod? You're the kind of person every retail worker despises, the entitled "It's all about me so pander to me" type. I'd really like to try to see things from your perspective, but I don't think I can fit my head that far up my own ass.

Shadowdragon, the mod is fine as it is, it adds ambience and variety to the game and 1) People do not HAVE to use the mod, and 2) If they do they do not HAVE to pick all the stuff up in these rooms.

@Everglade: You're quite welcome.

I note with some satisfaction that this mod, while hardly the most popular Dungeons of Dredmor mod, is still ranking on the second page of the most popular mods. It has hardly "been forgotten" as Mazaryn (who was posting under the name Joneithevius in February 2014,) predicted.

Apparently, quite a few people (2,818 of them, in fact,) consider Dungeon Life to be well worth the subscription, and don't give a damn that I get quite short when people make high-nosed demands that I make a "balanced" version of it that suits their definitions of game balance.

@John Deere: It's been a long, long time since I've played Dungeons of Dredmor, but it wasn't too hard, from what I recall. One of the big monster unions could be dangerous if you got one on level 1, but they could be survived if you were tough, clever, and good.

This mod makes the dungeon feel more alive and look more like a place to house an army of monsters now. Thanks for making it.
John Deere 8 Apr, 2015 @ 6:40pm 
Is this a very "hard" mod?
Aristedes 23 Oct, 2014 @ 11:27am 
Dredmor and From the Depths are draining my life. Fuck it, WHO NEEDS A SOCIAL LIFE ANYWAYS
ShadowDragon8685  [author] 23 Oct, 2014 @ 11:09am 
Mwahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahaaah.
Aristedes 23 Oct, 2014 @ 6:38am 
The Whoovianism is strong with the author of this mod.
Also, your latrine rooms made me watch more tentacle porn. God damn you witty descriptions!
ShadowDragon8685  [author] 6 May, 2014 @ 7:57pm 
Amaya: Glad you're enjoying it. :)
khenders10 6 May, 2014 @ 7:22pm 
This is amazing! Love it and hope to see more of your work. I share your view, if someone doesnt like it then they can just not download it. Simple. Thanks for this really cool mod!

Lord Nigel Montgomery: Suppose a restaraunt has a sign clearly posted, stating, for instance, "No checks accepted, NO EXCEPTIONS."

It is not polite and respectful to ask the cashier to accept a check in full knowledge of this fact, no matter how obisquieously you word said request.

I wasn't polite, but I wasn't *rude*, either. Not until he suggested I had my head up my arse. Then I (rightly) got nasty.
CrackSmokingWarlock 27 Mar, 2014 @ 10:19pm 
His request, while at odds with the description you provided, was polite and respectful. Your response was not.
ShadowDragon8685  [author] 27 Mar, 2014 @ 3:15pm 
Lord Nigel Montgomery: That really hurts.

Oh wait, no, the other thing. If you want to cut your nose off to spite my face, so be it. I said in the intro of this mod that I wasn't going to accomodate any requests to make it "balanced," and not to bother asking.

In full knowledge of that fact, Joneithevius summarily entirely ignored my up-front stated stance on the topic and asked me to do just that, or even to hand over the mod to someone else.

I took offense at such requests, and told him so. He then responded by insulting me twice, and I took him to task for it.

If that makes me "elitist," then so be it.
CrackSmokingWarlock 27 Mar, 2014 @ 12:41am 
ShadowDragon8685: You lost a subscriber. That snotty, condescending attitude was completely uncalled for. :squirtmeh:
ShadowDragon8685  [author] 12 Feb, 2014 @ 11:39pm 
Joneithevius: I made this mod for one person. His handle wasn't "Joneithevius." It was "ShadowDragon8685." I made it because the humor in it suited me, I made it because it was a creative and fun thing to do at the time. I shared it because the results were even better than I had expected and they proved good enough to be seen. That suited me.

What does not suit me is entitled Internet brats telling the creative mind behind making something that they didn't do it to the entitled brat's taste and to change it, especially when said entitled internet brat has read in all foreknowledge that the specific changes they are suggesting were already considered (over a year before they suggested - nay, begged,) have been explicitly rejected by the author.
BlueNights 12 Feb, 2014 @ 11:17pm 
I've read precisely that, which is exactly why I asked. At least I've tried to be polite, but you've chosen to be an elitist dick. Pity, a better mod will come eventually and this one will be forgotten. Hope it doesn't smell too awful up where the sun don't shine!
ShadowDragon8685  [author] 12 Feb, 2014 @ 6:15am 
@Joneithevius: You don't read too good, do you? That, or you're terribad at following directions. Please re-read the description starting with "If you do NOT like rooms overflowing with stuff..."

So, no. I will not make a "Balanced" version of this mod. I absolutely refuse to do so, I refuse to compromise the "What are you likely to find in these spaces" quality by thinking "This much stuff might be overpowered to give the player," and if you can't handle the monsters in them, well, you're toast if you run into a monster zoo. I also refuse to allow someone else to bastardize it in such a manner. This mod isn't for those who like a "balanced" gameplay experience.

If you don't like it, vacate the Monster Union Cooking Area.
BlueNights 11 Feb, 2014 @ 11:19pm 
I really love the room designs and layouts! However, can you please, PLEASE consider making an balanced version with less items and monsters someday, or if you can't be arsed to, at least let someone else make a balanced version?
Kaidelong 16 Nov, 2013 @ 4:26am 
Most of these rooms probably should not appear above depth 4.
Remie 14 Nov, 2013 @ 8:32am 
I have the same problem as Camron :(

One could tell from a mile away the rich DF-ness.
Garrett Aelito 21 Sep, 2013 @ 6:37pm 
Yeah, I also don't see any flavor text. I'm playing on the latest beta with all 3 DLC's correctly installed.
Larry Lumbridge 17 Jul, 2013 @ 7:41pm 
lmao, blue latrine is a TARDIS
Denny PRIME 5 Jul, 2013 @ 4:23pm 
dowloads, uses burglary skill, wins forever.
Ragnaman 1 Jul, 2013 @ 10:30am 
Kudos for reference to DF.
Remie 30 Jun, 2013 @ 12:55pm 
I am having the same problem as Bohondas. All your flavor text is missing.
Geen 28 May, 2013 @ 9:25pm 
Downloaded for the Dwarf Fortress reference, and stayed for the hilarity.
Bohandas 4 May, 2013 @ 5:24pm 
This is a very good mod. There does however seem to be an issue with the descriptive text for the new rooms disappearing.
ShadowDragon8685  [author] 10 Apr, 2013 @ 5:01am 
I did say that the rooms were both overflowing with loot and monsters. I designed them specifically so they'd be full of the kind of STUFF you find in a living quarters. But it's not like you just get it for free, you have to FIGHT for the stuff.

Oh, and I'm sorry, but my modding skills aren't up to the snuff of detecting robot players and allowing them to use the robotic latrine. :) Beep boop.

As for the update... It's not going well, I'm sorry to say. No matter what I try, I can't seem to get the shop to work. It's very frustrating.
LAN 10 Apr, 2013 @ 3:01am 
i like the idea but i think the room's are a bit op cause i think they have too many items in them and the rooms are pretty darn big too

oh and I AM A ROBOT BEEP BOOP
Juice_skywalker 4 Apr, 2013 @ 5:52am 
We all live in a tiny blue latrine XD
ShadowDragon8685  [author] 31 Mar, 2013 @ 12:39pm 
@SweWookie: There would be more menacing with the spikes of gabbro and schist if it were. :)
Mikey 31 Mar, 2013 @ 11:50am 
Is this mod made by Urist?
Red 28 Mar, 2013 @ 6:43pm 
Ok, thanks.
ShadowDragon8685  [author] 28 Mar, 2013 @ 1:35pm 
@Pudge: You're welcome.

@Bear Warrior: No, it doesn't. Removing the shops would require replacing files in your default game directory. If you haven't seen shops in two floors, that probably just means you're having godawful luck, and the game hasn't picked any shop rooms randomly to populate your dungeon floors with.

Also, since this mod has hit 500+ subscribers, I think I'll go back to it and add a few new rooms. Maybe some shops. Shop smart, shop Brax-Mart. :)
Red 28 Mar, 2013 @ 6:14am 
Just wondering but does this remove the shops, because i've been to 2 floors and have not encountered one yet.
ZanderEzekial 27 Mar, 2013 @ 8:08pm 
looks cool, thanks!
Texaport 27 Mar, 2013 @ 5:51pm 
It seems to be working fine at this point! No more errors when i create a character. Didnt see any of the new content yet because i purposefully allowed myself to die by the second room, but i am sure i will have fun. Thanks for the content.
ShadowDragon8685  [author] 27 Mar, 2013 @ 5:44pm 
Aaaand now with more screenshots of what the mod does, per Pudge's request.
ShadowDragon8685  [author] 27 Mar, 2013 @ 5:39pm 
Updated! Is three minutes soon enough to satisfy? :)
Texaport 27 Mar, 2013 @ 5:35pm 
@ShadowDragon8685: I wasnt thinking you had implied anything of the sort. I had tried to sort out the problem myself several times, because i wasnt aware i hadnt downloaded the FREE pack in the first place! When i downloaded it and tried to use your pack again i was completely stuck. Like i said, i am normally rather good with PCs, and when i had issues i spent about 4 days tweaking it and looking through the files to make sure they were there. XD Anyway, glad its getting sorted out and hope to see your content soon =)
ShadowDragon8685  [author] 27 Mar, 2013 @ 5:29pm 
@ClockworkAnalog: One of the files I used seems to have changed names between when I wrote the mod and now. I KNOW it worked when I tested the room it appears in, so... I dunno what that's about.

I didn't mean to imply you had illegally acquired Dungeons of Dredmor, but that there might have been a transaction error when you bought one or more of the expansion packs.

Nevertheless, I'm getting the problem sorted. I know what it was, and I'm fixing it. As we speak, in fact, a fixed version should be up within the hour.
Texaport 27 Mar, 2013 @ 5:26pm 
@ShadowDragon8685: I know what i bought and installed, and i am sure you know the errors better then i do, i will simply uninstall and reinstall all content to be 1000% sure i am not missing anything. I have all 3 expansions installed plus the main game, i checked it multiple times, and the game runs fine when i dont use your content. And if it makes you feel better i didnt find your comment offending, i was looking for help, something i dont do often because i am normally rather good with this kind of thing, just made no sense because everthing else was working fine and didnt want to wipe out my high scores for no reason. XD
ShadowDragon8685  [author] 27 Mar, 2013 @ 4:47pm 
@ClockworkAnalog: I would like to apologize. Imagine my surprise to find that I, myself, got the error about scrawl.png missing!

It seems that they went and renamed elements I used in the mod. I'll get this fixed posthaste.
ShadowDragon8685  [author] 27 Mar, 2013 @ 4:39pm 
@Trillith: And I have the ability to delete your comments as often as I see fit. There was nothing hubristic or mean about my comment to ClockworkAnalog. If you want to critique the mod, fine. If you want to tell me it's crap without giving reasoning, you're not welcome here. If you want to pick a fight with me, go find something else to do. Also: Ka-Delete!

@Pudge: I can't believe I didn't think of that. I'll go get some as soon as I can recall the formatting to test rooms.
Boulzer 27 Mar, 2013 @ 1:39pm 
I will try it
