Glad to see you're back, Drakey.

I don't feel like piecing... pieces of this topic together to get information, so I'm just gunna ask:

What do we know about these "Centurion Avengers"? What are they? Where'd they come from? Why did they come? Would they be a reasonable force for putting in scenarios?

Yes, Spring or Summer 2004 sounds like a good guess for Windows.

....

GF2 porting is first.
Finishing BOA is second.
Porting BOA to Windows is after that, obviously.

We should see BOA by the end of the year. If not, it'll come early next year (2004).

Yea I'm a friend of Motekye's, and I haven't seen him post here for ages. I think he's out of town this week as well... I haven't seen him on AIM to discuss some things BOA related.

And are shrunken photos a bad thing? Heck, their a lot easier to make, and usually look a lot better.

Well now that you've mentioned it, someone is bound to make some. I'd do it myself, but terrain graphics aren't quite my forte.

Go for it.

Also, though Olympia was by the most famous (and considered most 'official'), there were a few other contests as well. Obviously much smaller, but that's beyond the point...

...Actually I forgot the point, but there is one.

Yea but I still think we should wait on more. If my memory serves me correctly, there were *tons* of graphics submitted to most contests.

But I don't mean to deter you. If you'd like to sponser (ie. DO) it yourself, go ahead. I'll even submit my own. I just think you'd get the best turnout a little later.

Yes, major content will have to wait until the release.

And the buttons... I would tell you, but I didn't make the site... a friend made it for me because I'm completely inept at making websites. His home site is here. He used to post here (thats how I met him), but I haven't seen him post for months.

I'd wait til the game was released, and we had a little more variety out there.

[laughs] Yes, well that's due to the lack of material. I'll be gone this weekend as well, so I won't be able to finish anything until about Tuesday.

Also, it will be set up more like Drakey's, not in a database for such as Brett's.

Well, my site will eventually be large, but it doesn't have anything yet because I've been very busy and lack the time to update and put some material.

Fort Emergence for the time being... expect stuff soon (maybe).

Actually there was a BOE database. Of course, I don't remeber the URL, and pages with links, or even if it exists. But there was one. And it was crammed full.

Just to clarify... no custom sounds. I was told this personally by the big man himself (Jeff, not God).

Some ideas... in Blades of Avernum
Guardian

We've been over this a million times too, but oh well:

The user WILL NOT be able to directly edit and change the spells, abilities, and skills. However, through the use of scripts, one can make new, special...things... that could act as skills or spells. They will be scenario specific (unless I missed something) and should be decently easy to make.

After the Release of Blades of Avernum... in Blades of Avernum

Well the thing is... I can't even bring myself to play BOE right now, much less after it's successor is released. It's pointless. There will be even better scenarios for BOA, making BOE worthless. Granted, it is a great game and everything, but why still play it? Maybe I'm missing something...

Pre-order download spot... [chuckle]

And yes, I would bet Jeff has a rough estimate on how many users he has. It seems that mostly the same people that bought the original games are the ones still buying the games.

And pardon my ignorance to downloads... while I do download the shareware, I also usually by a backup version on disk.

I understand... sorry if that sounded mean. I didn't mean it that way.

And we did discuss the possiblity of a pre-order a while ago, and Jeff gave a sort of jokingly-"we'll see". We might want to let him know now if we want it. Though, the point is near useless. There is absolutly no chance of copies running out, as he makes them himself.

The point of this project is to give those who want it a set of scenarios and guidelines to make "official" scenarios. If one doesn't want to follow this, then by all means, don't follow it. I already have plans for my website to include a section of what I would refer to as "official", meaning they follow what _I_ think happens. I understand your want to not come across as the bad-guy, *i, and I mean the same. This group of us just wants something to keep with the original history.

Seeing as how I pretty much (someone else helped inspire...) this whole deal about Exile/Avernum history, you guys should let me handle the First Visitation. :D

Yea well, I just got home from Atlanta, GA, USA. The Lutheran National Youth Gathering was there, big event, and I of course, attended. But yea lets not talk about that. I've missed LOTS of posts of important information, so I've been reading up for the past half hour. And from the looks of it, I'd really like to be a part of this undertaking. Like I said, I would really like to handle the First Visitation, seeing as that's what my scenarios are based on. Consider this a formal request for the involved's permission.
