I, II, or III in The Exile Trilogy
ezAndy Lifecrafter Member # 375	written Saturday, April 26 2008 14:57 Profile #18 quote: Originally written by Unhasty: That is the COMPLETE list. ... (Obviously, this list does not include spells unavailable at the start of the game.) Okay, so it isn't complete then. Hmm. I'd put up the complete list of spells up, but I've never played with a pacifist. Anyway, to add to my previous reply, I agree with some of the posters here that III had the best engine, and II had the best plot.

MicroSoft XP SP3 Is out! in General

So... you'd end up creating an almost entirely new game. shrug As for the maps, there are plenty of areas that they could snip from the different games to create the arenas. What exactly defines having deathmatch in mind to you? There are plenty of boss fights and large scale battles that have maps that work for that.... Well, I would have thought that a single player map would use exploration as a goal so the user would check out every corner for hidden treasure (this is used in tandem, of course, with the usual quest of killing everything or picking up the special item, etc.) Whereas a network map would be used for players to get quickly to one spot to the other. I'm reminded of a guideline in _Marathon_ network maps; you have to have a flow, as to not frustrate people with a slow lag or whatever. I'm sure someone else could explain this better. Anyway, I know that this isn't Marathon, but shouldn't the basic principles be the same? -------------------- "I liked white better." Posts: 771 \| Registered: Tuesday, December 11 2001 08:00
What have you been reading lately? in General
ezAndy Lifecrafter Member # 375	written Thursday, November 8 2007 18:59 Profile #582 Been reading Danse Macabre by Stephen King. Good stuff—has King ever written a revision to the book? I'm sure the horror genre has done something past the early '80s. -------------------- "I liked white better." Posts: 771 \| Registered: Tuesday, December 11 2001 08:00

I'm just tossing an uninformed opinion here, but I thought that the engine would have to be rebuilt from scratch to change from a single player game to what you have proposed. The battle system too, probably. And, correct me if I'm wrong, the maps aren't designed for a deathmatch in mind.

It Is Done in General
ezAndy Lifecrafter Member # 375	written Friday, June 29 2007 17:18 Profile #22 sigh Missed the deletion of SubTerra & Richard White forums. Though it doesn't sound like much changed from when I left... To get back on the other conversation thread, I played Rock Solid and Ocean Bound. I don't believe I figured out the keys for Rock Solid, and Ocean Bound was one of those games that I found too frustrating to continue on. -------------------- "I liked white better."

Pied Piper Project IV: A New Bot in General
ezAndy Lifecrafter Member # 375	written Friday, May 25 2007 04:45 Profile #23 Whoops, forgot about the context. http://pied-piper.ermarian.net/topic/1/1296/p3 http://pied-piper.ermarian.net/topic/1/1296/p4 I came back, said 1337 for no reason at all, and then I left again. I also got an "omg, ezAndy". It's just one of those moments that make no sense when you look at it in retrospect. Gives you that feeling of warm, fuzzy nostalgia. -------------------- "I liked white better." Posts: 771 \| Registered: Tuesday, December 11 2001 08:00

the finest games in town in General

Icons in General
ezAndy Lifecrafter Member # 375	written Sunday, July 2 2006 12:19 Profile #21 quote: Originally written by The Stew Boy: I think the reason for the difference is that some companies, when making the folders for their Mac games, put lots of segments from the splash screen as icons, and arrange them so that when you open the folder, you see the splash screen as icons. Actually, it's quite clever. I’ve found a few applications that’ll do that, like Pict2Icon (couldn’t find a link to it, but it’s on my hard drive). -------------------- "I liked white better."

ezAndy Lifecrafter Member # 375	written Saturday, July 1 2006 07:18 Profile #28 For six character parties I use Jake, Rachel, Tobias, Cassie, Marco and Ax. Hey, they fit, I can find graphics to match and I don’t feel original enough to find Nephilim names or whatever. For four character parties: David, Christopher, April and Jalil. I have used another names in the past, but those are the ones that I know off by memory, so they‘d get chosen whenever I start a new game in Exile. -------------------- "I liked white better."

Collections in General
ezAndy Lifecrafter Member # 375	written Saturday, July 1 2006 06:22 Profile #46 I like to collect entire series of books, so I won’t have to rely on the library if I’m bored one day. And I collect a lot of web pages, mostly for offline viewing. I’ve got web pages here dating back to '01 so I can feel nostalgic. Good times. -------------------- "I liked white better."
