If you want to try a remake of EOB2, you will find it here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3142623589
It is not intended to look like the original game (way above my scripting skills), but it contains the whole EOB2 story in the Grimrock engine.

Once this is finished I'll probably play it, but seeing the Eye of Beholder maps brings back good memories, making me want to pick Eye of Beholder back up. For those interested, a lot of the DOS games are available on GOG for purchase with little to no setup unless you're using some kind of controller.

Buggy. Pity, could be nice.

too sad its not playable. i thought my dreams come true. :)

I was able to ignore the first skeleton since it doesn't seem to have any relevance to forward momentum, but killing 4 skeletons then being unable to open the gate due to the crashing bugs attached to the gate and the pushing mechanic, ya. Honestly, I don't know what the problem here is. While it might not be game friendly, just swap out the gate with something more stable next time. If ya don't know how to fix it, put in a place holder till you do. Better then leaving a buggy mess.

The reason that makes me mad about it is that is a pretty significant bug first off. Second, I have no idea what awaits me further down the road in the mod. I could go down to the next floor, one of these shortcuts happens and bam, trapped. Just not much of a reason to continue. Nvm, reading just a tiny bit further down into the comments, you're fucked on level 3 apparently. I guess I could use the level skip till that isn't an issue, but I wanna play the mod, not dance around the issues.

in Level 2 i have 2 NIL POINTER errors when walking through doors :( very sad. NOT playable

Eye of the Beholder was my very first addiction. I remember drawing all of the maps (except levels 1-3 which they gave you.)

thankyou heeeeeeeaps

Source code of this project is always available on GitHub, I added link into description.

hey uploader author dude, release the files to the community, someone will be willing to work on it!

Anyone stuck on Level 2 where it crashes when you force the grate with the portcullis and the skeleton behind, ignore it, just kill the skelly through the grate and then go to the other portcullis and throw a knife through

So, EotB fan from waaaay back. Any chance you'd update and fix the portcullis into the...interesting little side room on lv 2? (Intentionally not spoilering anyone who didn't play the original, this room was a FINE little treat back in the day that took me days to figure out fully)

Loved what I've seen so far...extremely well done!

Yeah, I've been waiting for this one to go active again as well. I must have logged well over 1000 hrs on EoB when I was a kid. LoG was just amazing to find when it came out, and I still play it a few times a year.

It's been 2 and a half years, unless you can contact him personally, i don't think you're getting through

I would pay money for a completed version of this and I believe others would too. Eye of the Beholder is one of my favorite games of all time.

It's going to be interesting to see how you manage the drow elves, if you ever get there.

In the path of the strong area, it crashed the game when I tried forcing the door.
Anyway, I enjoyed what this custom dungeon. So much that I bought the full beholder game series on GOG.

I remember there was some old , I think german forum where the mod's progress was updated once in a while even thought he nexus page and here didn't seem to get many updates. I think the link was probably on here until valve was a dick and deleted the urls, so you'd have to google and try a million search phrases if you didn't hit it on the first page (it hsould be on the first page for grimrock eye of the beholder though. I stoppe dkeeping up on it a year or 2 ago once it looked dead unfortunately. I played this game on super back in the day and loved it, I was hoping to play it again on amodern engine.

many bugs, unfortunately no corrections, the programmers have probably stopped working in 2016. Very sad, I was looking forward to the mod.

PLEASE tell me this isn't abandone… i absolutely love what i see

How do spells work in this mod exactly?

Crashes are on at least two iron gate doors. It's a show stopper on about level 3, where a lever has to be triggered to get further.

Seems that they've stopped developing this mod. Sad :(

Nice, but crashes all the time.

@Erectus - Walk forward into the door to open it.

Stack at 2 lvl at "forsing the door" near skeleton warrior...game goes 2 crush

I'm encountering the same issue I've seen posted about forcing the door. I'm on the 2nd level "Only the strong will pass" scenario, and the grated door rose, closed, and I got the "Door seems stuck" prompt, but when I click at the base the door doesn't seem willing to cooperate. I didn't count the clicks, but I clicked rapidly for about 6-8 min]

Any more updates coming? I'd love to play Eye of the Beholder again in a modern engine. I miss the old all attack button that series had I think in EotB 3

getting same crash when trying to force doors.
Error log:
#forceable_doors:46: attempt to call method 'isClosed' (a nil value)
stack traceback:

I'm also experiencing the crash when trying to force doors. It only seems to occur for the grated/portcullis doors though, not the solid steel ones.

So, is this complete in the sense you can defeat the end boss and see the ending? If it's not, I'd rather wait until it is.

Another bug: Pressing the button "C" on my keybord causes a CTD and the following message appears:

#compass:18: attempt to call global 'drawCompass' (a nil value)
stack traceback:
#compass:18: in function 'callback'

Thanks for fixing the "save-bug"!
But the problem with the doors in level 2 still exists. Maybe a point: you can attack and kill the skelton(s) behind the door(s) without forcing.it.

Can confirm this and another CTD while trying to save the game.

Hi I am on level 2 and every time i got to force a door open this error comes up and the game crashes, can anyone out there help with this:

#forceable_doors:46: attempt to call method 'isClosed' (a nil value)
stack traceback:

Have come to the door that says only strongest will pass, i push the button and the door does not stay half way open and i cant open it, how do you do this bit

Martin

Wow, that update.

Kudos to the new contributor. Think I'll be replaying Grimrock in the near future and also going through custom dungeons finally, so this update was great to see!

Thank God!

Update! From now, all levels 1-12 are fully playable (as close to original as possible), thanks to our new contributor Carlos.

Michael: subscribe this project in your steam app first, next run Legend of Grimrock and in the main menu select the "Custom dungeon", choose EOB Waterdeep sewers and play...

is this dead?

I'm desperate to play Eye of the Beholder again and your remake looks good but how do I download and play it? I've subscribed through STEAM, what do I do next?

in their defense...modding is extremely time consuming, it can take hundreds of hours to get everything just right. sometimes people aren't up to the task, or they might get discouraged by a lack of interest in their mod.
working with custom assets certainly complicates things as well.

it's too bad though, i would have liked to see a complete reimagining of EoB with the grimrock engine

Why do newbies always say they are working on a mod and then never finish it? What's the point? Just tell us when it's ready and release it then, which of course won't happen because you anncounced before you finished it (and never will finish it now).

This happens so many times that it's just a joke. Oh well, at least we van now all play them on GOG.

There seems to have been a bit of activity on the github page: https://github.com/grimrock/eob1-waterdeep

Is this mod dead :( ?
