Perhaps you get the drake fang when killing the drake under the first fort in A Small Rebellion, if you kill her at all?

She's behind another locked door. Look around with the seeing device.

I also believe there are a few user-created websites where you can get them. Also note that Blades of Exile scenarios are supposed to be able to transfer to BoA.

So, if you're really hurting for new scenarios, find a BoE site (here, or otherwise), download a scenario, put it into your BoA EDITOR, save it as a BoA scenario, and you should be good to go.

Note that I have not actually tried this, but it should work in theory.

In other news: This is my favorite messageboard software. Infopop for life!

NO.

This WILL NOT work. The converter is only about 25% of the conversion process, and what it outputs is always highly incomplete. It still takes a lot, lot, lot of work to get the scenario as it was in BoE.

Note that BoA is very new, and as a result there aren't many scenarios out right now.

But there will be :)

Yeah, I knew about how it told the difficulty after bashing. And I didn't know randomness wasn't involved in bashing, that's rather surprising.

But hey, it saves you a bash. :P

The fact that 95 is quite similar to 98 (but with quite a number of subtle differences) means Jeff probably said 95, thinking it'd work on it because it runs fine on 98, but one of the subtle differences is used by BoA without Jeff realising.

I seem to recall a problem with GetLongPathNameA() before, and believe there is a suitable replacement function which exists in 95. :)

I reccomend Fresh Download.

It's totally free (even registration), but they're a pretty trustworthy company and they really don't spam you.

No, No, No!

You put the -EXECUTABLE- (.exe) in the Data/ folder. You can put the rest where you want, it's pretty much all documentation.

You need a browser which supports FTP transfers.

Examples include Internet Explorer.

Do this: Learn C. (Not C++). Get a C compiler (try Dev-C++, which can compile C, at http://www.bloodshed.net/. Make sure you select 'C', not 'C++').

Learn C - google for C tutorials - until you can make and compile a simple program in it. When you've done that, take a look at BoA scripting.

Try reading the BoA scripts while learning C at regular intervals. When you can find them easy to understand, stop learning C. You don't need to learn any more, and to do so would be a waste of time, since BoA scripting will never introduce advanced C elements.

Yes, but if you have a weak party it might not work even if it is bash-openable at your level.

Bad luck, that is.

Arancaytar: When you type e-mail addresses, don't type them outright. Put them something like: spidweb AT spiderwebsoftware DOT com.

This prevents spam-crawlers from finding the email and spamming Jeff.

Judging by the excellent graphics in BoA, Spidweb already have a good arts person. I believe there's just Jeff, Linda and Krisan as staff, and the spider.

Somehow, it's not just about the editor.

Wouldn't ''Blades of Avernum Scenario Creation'' or ''Blades of Avernum Editor & Scripting'' be more suitable?

Sorry if this is kind of off the topic of the forum, but I figured this was the most suitable forum to post in.

I play text adventures, sometimes. And I know what that sentence is. :P

Another name for it is Interactive Fiction, a name that tries to cover up it's actually a text adventure.

PHP is also a suitable language to learn.
Although I'd only reccomend it if you can already build a website using HTML.

Couldn't you make it so right-click lowers terrain when in height mode? It would make an excellent shortcut.

Also, moving around towns/outdoors maps using the keyboard arrow keys is annoyingly slow. For some reason using the mouse at the edge of the viewing pane makes this faster.

Windows 98, 800Mhz.
