I'm uneasy on the whole issue of holocaust denial... Surely we should be encouraged to question what we are told? I don't know. I don't know enough facts to sustain a prolonged argument, yet I don't think that the existence of gas chambers is irreputable proof. I'll read up, and then form a more rounded opinion. In any case, one shouldn't be locked up for denying the Holocaust. -------------------- And when you want to Live How do you start? Where do you go? Who do you need to know?

Wow. You're going. Well, I still remember the first post you made really well, but won't quote anything lest this turns into a "This Is Your Life" moment. It's always a shame to see an intelligent person leave the boards. But I guess I do understand - real-life keeps getting in my way too, and I've had to cut my leisure time down dramatically. Anyway, hopefully, you'll return. If not, good luck with whatever your doing. -------------------- And when you want to Live How do you start? Where do you go? Who do you need to know?

The docs are actually quite good at explaining dialogue. Kel's website should have something though, I'm sure. And as for INTRO... it changes what the player sees, as Thralni said, but here is an example: In this (simple) example, the first time you talk to Trevor, you see text1 (and 2,3,4). Next time you start a conversation with him, you see text5 (and 6,7,8). That okay? -------------------- And when you want to Live How do you start? Where do you go? Who do you need to know?

Poit makes a good point, albeit one that has been said before (saving the stepchild business). What we need then, is an incentive for more designers to get designing... hmm, bad wordiness. Anyway, I believe Stareye was talking about getting Jeff to give away some prizes for another contest, and we could organise ones that allow people to knock out easy-to-make simple scenarios. As well as this, the current atmosphere of the more-established members of the community helping us n00bs seemed to be working. TM's methid of getting us all to write out a small paragraph seemed to have worked, since lots of people answered. The key is time, as other members have said. But give it a couple of months, and there will be more scenarios out there, and more players. We just need something to break the dryspell, which is happening already, and then hope that it encourages others to create their own stories. Don't know how useful that was. If at all. -------------------- And when you want to Live How do you start? Where do you go? Who do you need to know? Posts: 2864 | Registered: Monday, September 8 2003 07:00 |

I am double posting, but it's necessary. I think... I DID get a valentines card. Of sorts. I don't often check my board email address, and as I did today, I discovered that I had got an E-Card.

I'm finishing my penultimate town AS I POST. I then need to draw and script the last town, which may take a few days owing to work and "real life".
