Then I'd make Alo a moderator of every board that he's not already (only a couple left) and claim that Blademaster was his custom title. Then I'd change the horrible new title at 12500 posts to something vaguely more suitable, ban Thuryl (I never trusted him anyway), and call it a day. :cool: -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens.

Do you like school? in General
Kelandon Off With Their Heads Member # 4045	written Monday, August 29 2005 17:42 Profile Homepage #82 However, a lot of the garbage that I had to do in English class didn't have anything to do with effective communication. "Read this work. Write an essay analyzing literary devices. Rinse. Repeat." I never wrote a real argument essay or more than a couple creative pieces for a class in all of high school, and I think those two genres have as much to do with real-life writing as any other. Literary analysis has its place, but it sometimes gets exalted as not merely the most important thing to teach in an English class, but in fact the only thing to teach, and I think that's a mistake. Learning to communicate effectively is important, but I'm not sure that high school English classes put that as their foremost priority. At times I wish the literature and communication parts of English could be separated: reading lots of canonical great works of the English language is not necessarily directly related to learning how to get one's ideas across. The University of California (like many high schools) has a terrible problem recognizing this right now.

Orb of thralni in Blades of Avernum Editor
Kelandon Off With Their Heads Member # 4045	written Saturday, August 27 2005 13:55 Profile Homepage #234 I assume A1-3 work based on something like nodes, like BoE — except that we don't have a scenario editor for them. But if you don't use BoE, that probably means little to you. Generally, the AT games work like any other application — there's some code that gets compiled and assembled into a bunch of machine language (1's and 0's) that the computer reads and executes when you open the program. As for your other question: put specobj in your scenario's folder. Place the terrain script with the special tool for placing terrain scripts in the editor. Edit the memory cells as desired.

For me it's the gameplay, not the plot, that makes SW games so good. That doesn't actually disagree with many here. I agree — I just think the overall experience suffers when the plot is bad. The gameplay is virtually always the strongest point in a SW game, but Jeff has made a few good plots before, and I'd like to see him do so again.

I'm STUCK! in Blades of Avernum
Kelandon Off With Their Heads Member # 4045	written Saturday, August 27 2005 05:26 Profile Homepage #3 Okay, I'm going to take a wild stab in the dark and say that you're in Galthrax's room (which is the only boss fight room that holds you prisoner inside after you've walked in — and it gives ample warning about this, I might add) and you're having trouble beating Galthrax. Leave Town is a really bad idea in Bahs — there's no way to get back where you're going. However, you could figure out a way to beat Galthrax legitimately. If you want to do that, describe your party and someone will probably be able to help you more effectively than I can. You could also enter debug mode by opening the script slithhome.txt and finding this: And replacing it with this: To turn on debugging mode, type “}”, followed by “=” (so a right bracket, followed by an equals sign). Then press Shift-K to kill all the monsters in the town, including Galthrax. Or, alternatively, use the character editor to beef up your party's stats until you can kill Galthrax.

Bahssikava in Blades of Avernum
Kelandon Off With Their Heads Member # 4045	written Saturday, August 27 2005 05:14 Profile Homepage #9 quote: Originally written by The_Nazgul: Maybe Kel played it with a specially designed party that suited the heavy combat requirements of the game. Personally I found it a bit too hard for my party (level: 45, difficulty: normal). I would say the scenario is more like 50 and over. I pity the poor souls that try to beat the game with a level 35 party. Fortunately this is no mayor bug, a little change in the scenario properties from 35-45 to say 45-55 and bingo! It is done. This is definitely not a bug. I beat it with a HLPM-made party at level 40 that was entirely like the default party — I didn't do anything special because I wanted to make sure that it could be done without anything weird. If you want to know how I did it, read the walkthrough. There were a few fights throughout the scenario that gave me trouble, but I explain how I got through them. I am told that a party that is strong in missile weapons goes through much more easily than a default-like party. quote: Originally written by Ash Lael: quote: Originally written by Thralni, emperor of Riverrod: quote: Originally written by Ash Lael: Too bad I don't like BoA. All this ego-stroking looks enticing. :P Its better people liking you, than disliking you. That's why. I have no idea what you're talking about. I think the idea is: being nice to each other is better than being completely mean and unpleasant to each other. This is a novel concept when it comes to talking about Blades scenarios, I know, but saying a few good things about a scenario makes it much easier to tolerate saying a few negative things about a scenario, which is something that I think all of us forget too often.
