At last - more info! I know that Drakey's real name is actually Ryan, I think... So James must be his little brother or something, or his kid, and James came up with the name... Which means Drakey is a thief.

Although I doubt this theory, it's more believeable than the Peter Pan yarn he's been spinning.

Yeah, good point. Drakey's post spelt out the name "RONE", which the quote mucked up by putting everything he said in bold.

Maybe he's somehow been transformed into crystal form, and is now planning on "falling" into an Empire soldier's pack, in the hope of starting another war...

Anyway, he MUST be killed off, surely... Patrick died, and he was nicer!

Yup.

Okay, first of all try re-downloading. It's a pain if you have dial-up, but that's the first thing. Make sure you select the Windows version (the file should end in .zip).

Then install it using the default settings, and ALLOW it to change the resolution when you start it up. It will change it back when you quit.

If that doesn't work, try disabling the sound in the preferences window. I had a little trouble with sound (sure, it was a 486, but hey...), and make sure you're graphics card driver is up-to date. Since it seems to be a fairly new computer, everything should be fine there though...

I don't know. It has me flummoxed.

Anatomy lets you do a little extra damage against humanoid monsters, like nephilim, sliths, ogres, or Empire soldiers.
It's also quite expensive though, and in Avernum 3 especially, when you hit the damage cap early on, it just doesn't make sense to go for it.

BoA makes it all a lot better.

First Aid though... it can be useful, but only if you have no energy potions or alchemical ingrediants. Otherwise, as Imban observed, it's easier to cast Heal. Plus, heal is guarenteed to restore HP. First Aid can kill you. Not too clever when that happens either.

I have a theory about becoming an administrator - buy Drakey. Everyone has their price, and all we have to do is find it.

As far Drakey's age... Maybe it's like Doctor Who or something - he's been through seven cycles? Or seven Restings, if we play up to the Vahnatai-thing.

I'm in a good mood, so watch out...

I think what draws people to post is the chance to see their name in print. The thrill of having your posting habits discussed all over the boards. The excitement, nay, ECSTACY, of realising that you are in fact, posting more rubbish this month than all those other guys. The perverse satisfaction that you, despite only arriving two months ago, now have a post-count so high, it makes your nose bleed to look at it. And finally, the warm feeling inside you, that when you go to bed, makes you sure that you have spouted enough nonesense today.

So, Aran, I am really stupid, but MySQL... what else can it do? I'm not a big databse nut, but it'd be handy to reference my library with one. (Think over 1000 books.) Unless there's an easier way?

Sorry, that was me.
So instead of editing the first post and putting your moniker on it, you decided to bump up your other accounts post number. I think Aran is gunning for number 1 AND 2 in this months stats. :) Only kidding!

Err, I've never changed my name, but that's only because I can't think of anything witty. I change my MSN name all the time, but that's usually to song titles, and I always leave my log-in name the same. I say if people are smart enough to think of something good to change their name to, go for it. If not, do it anyway, since...err...

It isn't hard to realise who the people are. I mean, Thuryl and Alorael stick out like giant deformed, mangy thumbs on an otherwise flawless hand. And if you don't recognise the person's new name, then they probably ain't worth noticing anyway.

There.

Mages should have the skill Natural Mage if you want them to wear any kind of armour at all, since they will not be able to cast anything above Slow if they have one level of encumberance.

Plus it gives them a bonus to spell casting anyway.

Anaximander is funny. And under-rated.

But my favourite is either Tor, or Commander Johnson. Nance and Elspeth are good to.

Maybe post it, but only to those who ask. It WAS a good idea, but then so is Communism, and that doesn't really work. Or least it hasn't yet...

Yeah, so I decided to not post so much. Plus I have lots of work from college. And for the first time ever, a social life of sorts!

But some people see all publicity as good publicity. They don't see that being famous and infamous are seperate. And that the latter is usually a bad thing...

Well, not ruined. Just won't work in my machine. Luckily, I managed to steal my mother's for the evening yesterday, so I was lucky. The disk itself is fine. I just don't see the point in starting a game now, since I'll be restarting when my piece of junk finally works as intended.

If it ever does. Those shiny Macs at school are looking more and more desirable!

I, however, am completely with you Drakey. :P
