The problem with "Nephilian" — this name needs to be changed posthaste — is that its creator doesn't have quite enough background in English to describe things with English examples (do you really want your O to be a schwa?), comparative linguistics to describe things in linguistic terms ("They're just three different kinds of uvular trills, you see, or possibly the vowel itself is a uvular trill"), or dead Middle Eastern languages to back up the fact that languages have ever worked this way ("Well, it may be a genitive case, but it may just be a possessive case, since we're not really clear on the use of the analogous case in Hurrian and Akkadian"). Without being able to describe the language quite properly in any way, one has a tough time inventing a language. There are many things about it that right now make no sense.

Designer FAQ, Q4. There's no way to change town lighting within a town. If your chairs were light-producing, the room would be lit even after they were removed. The best workaround for this situation is probably to use a move_to_new_town to get the party to an identical-looking room in a town without the lights. -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens.

Were Thuryl's responses more mysterious than they at first seemed? I can't quite puzzle out if he's actually answering the questions, and if so, what his answers are. In any case, here are my illustrated answers. Favorite sandwich: (Prefer it on normal bread, though.) Vacation spot: I can't say that I've ever really been on a vacation, but if I were to go, I'd want to go to Europe, and this seems as good a place to start as any. Position and hobby: same as Marlenny. (EDIT: Or perhaps I should say, corresponding to Marlenny's.) 2nd choice position: 2nd choice hobby: Or really, reading anything from that time or before.

Just in case I haven't said it enough yet, here it is again: the single most important thing that you can do is create a release of any kind. You can continue to tinker forever, but we're all waiting for a better editor in the meantime. I do understand that it takes a long time. I just want this to come out some time before Pyg. -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens.

Nethergate 2 is, by all accounts, not going to happen. I'd like him to try a new universe, something as near to yet as distant from generic fantasy as Avernum is.

SILVER! Hi! Er, question for you: what's up with silverchat? Is it dead? Is it ever coming back? EDIT: And I had this problem a lot, too. A4 doesn't like being the background on my computer.

If you don't need a backstage, it'd be easier not to have one. Have you made sure that all of your custom graphics are numbered between 500 and 600? This might account for messing up the graphic of the first character, if not. As far as getting lighting around the chairs, you could place lights in the editor (so that the whole area is lit) and then change them to chairs in the INIT_STATE with a few set_terrain calls. The light will stay, but the room will have chairs. (The HLPM does something like this.)

Well, you wonder why I always dress in black, Why you never see bright colors on my back, And why does my appearance seem to have a somber tone. Well, there's a reason for the things that I have on. I wear the black for the poor and the beaten down, Livin' in the hopeless, hungry side of town, I wear it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime, But is there because he's a victim of the times. I wear the black for those who never read, Or listened to the words that Jesus said, About the road to happiness through love and charity, Why, you'd think He's talking straight to you and me. Well, we're doin' mighty fine, I do suppose, In our streak of lightnin' cars and fancy clothes, But just so we're reminded of the ones who are held back, Up front there ought 'a be a Man In Black. I wear it for the sick and lonely old, For the reckless ones whose bad trip left them cold, I wear the black in mournin' for the lives that could have been, Each week we lose a hundred fine young men. And, I wear it for the thousands who have died, Believen' that the Lord was on their side, I wear it for another hundred thousand who have died, Believen' that we all were on their side. Well, there's things that never will be right I know, And things need changin' everywhere you go, But 'til we start to make a move to make a few things right, You'll never see me wear a suit of white. Ah, I'd love to wear a rainbow every day, And tell the world that everything's OK, But I'll try to carry off a little darkness on my back, 'Till things are brighter, I'm the Man In Black. -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens.
