Kurt's Demise: Rise of the Ku'tan
Thoughts
Long ago I went on a search for an old-school RPG to play.
I happened across Demise: Rise of the Ku'tan. Loved it.
Never really play the online aspect of it; but, the
single-player brings me back every so often. Here's a
simple site showcasing some of my utilities for it.
Furthermore, I'd love it if someone could pass me any
source/documentation on file formats and such for
Demise.
De/Encrypter and Item
Editor
12.13.07
A courteous gentleman sent me an email asking about
Braindead's Encryptor/Decryptor tool. I've had it available
online for a long time; but, I realized that I've never
linked it here. Download it
(47K). I've also got the Item Editor with source code
available. Download it
(272K).
Ken Baker's Stuff
10.14.07
I had a reader send me a couple of utilities, a batch file
save/restore system and an old version of ArchKey. When
browsing the batch file it listed a website that is no more.
So I used the WayBack Machine again and pulled up the 1.1
version of the batch file as well as one-hundred
portraits.
Unfortunately, the second installation file is corrupt and
will damage portrait forty; but, I was able to open it in
PaintShop and resave it. Also, the installation program for
the save/batch file wouldn't install for me so I used
Universal
Extractor to rip out the files.
So, you can browse the
original site for the installation files or download my
clean zip files. I consider the batch file (5.1K) just a
slice of history; but, the portraits
(5.9M) are cleanly done.
Some File Formats
09-20-07 - updated 10.11.07
Here's
some information about the various Demise file formats
that were originally available in the Editing and
Development forum of Archi's DTR Dojo. It was
pulled around February 5th of 2007 due to inactivity as you
can see from this
post. Much thanks to the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine for
providing the original text.
Here's the stickies from DTR Dojo that showcases the file
formats for Necromis.
Demise Game News Exporter
09-08-07
Demise Game News Exporter is a small utility to export the
information from the "DEMISEGuildLogs.ded" file. You can then
use Excel or such to view and sort the exported data.
Download it (20K).
Demise Guild Log Exporter
09-08-07
Demise Guild Log Exporter is a small utility to export the
information from the "DEMISEGuildLogs.ded" file. You can then
use Excel or such to view and sort the exported data.
Download it (23K).
Character Renamer
09.03.07
So now you can rename any of your Demise characters.
Pretty handy utility. Let me know if you've any problems.
Since, I've been the only one to test it, I'd recommend
backing up your DEMISECharacters.ded file until you're
comfortable with the DCR utility. Download it (38K).
Companion Store Editor
12.19.05
This program will unencrypt, edit and reencrypt the file
with nine of all companions of all alignments. Yep, that's
it. No screenshot for it as it's DOS based. Download it (13K).
