It seems to be so that I can't add any more spells, the magic missile spell broke (was reset to fireburst) when I added the vampiric touch spell, so the amount of the custom spells seems to be limited to 15. So I have to remove the vampiric touch :( Damn that cause was hard to figure out :evil: Thanks Petri ;)

I found a work around, i just named the vampiric touch to ice_shards (any original spell name can be used) and everything works fine again.
So in conclusion: we can have 15 custom named spells + all originals.

I've started creating a list of missing things (wallsets, monsters, props, items, etc.). You can find it here: https://github.com/grimrock/eob1-waterdeep/wiki. I've added couple items from level 4 (with screenshots from the original). Feel free to expand the list or add pointers to existing Grimrock work.

I just went through and played what is done of this mod so far, and I really liked it. I found 4 secrets and all 15 notes and cleared all 3 floors in about an hour (at least I got as far as I think you can on level 3?)

At least I got to a point where there were 3 keyholes in this one wall and I couldn't do anything there, and I had 2 spare iron keys but they only seemed to go into a room with a dinosaur and 2 potions, and there seemed to be only one path down to level 4 -- through a hole in the floor in the middle of the maze on 3.
I haven't played EOB since... 2008 or so. I'm amazed I was ever able to beat the game without the excellent mapping system Grimrock provides. Yowza!

Great work guys; can't wait to see this continue on!

Did you use version from steam or from github? You may want to download the version from github. This is our latest code. It should be albe to get to get to level 4 and do some things there. Many things will work on level 4, but some of them won't. It may be possible to get to level 5, but I'm not sure about it.

Ah, I played the version from Steam. I will try the version from Github. :D

You mean this Dark-robed figure:

That's the one. Also, a model for Shindia (female drow) from lv 10 is missing in the list.

On another related note, you guys say that you have some sort of data dump of the levels from Eye of the Beholder, and you're using that to recreate the levels as faithfully as possible. How detailed is this data dump? Does it say what flags are on each square and what they do? What further data from the game has been extracted? I'm currently writing a FAQ for all three games and I'd appreciate any raw data that I can get.

See EobConverter link in my signature. It's a java code. It extracts walls, object locations, items, monsters and special actions. Special actions are only decoded and no grimrock code is generated based on it. The easiest way to check it out, is to download it, and run it yourself.
