Um, you may wish to read the first question in the Players' FAQ.

Welcome to the boards, by the way. Leave your sanity at the door.

Stareye's compromise is acceptable to me.

Overwhelming, I have already asked you to remove the articles, and I repeat my request again: remove everything of mine from your site, including the articles. If you must, you can link to these things, but do not host them directly.

I can and will take this to your host if you do not comply within a reasonable period of time.

Look at VoDT. Note that... oh, hell. Read this. The last part (about dialogue) is for you.

EDIT: You may also want to take a look at the Cookbook's section on dialogue.

Note that this doesn't actually allow you to write dialogue, though. If you want to do that, you have to make a dialogue script for the town and set the creature's memory cell 3 (assuming you're using basicnpc) to the number of the first node that the creature is using (the first one will be 1).

Two things:

empty_skins == 0;

This doesn't work. You need only one equals sign ("empty_skins = 0;").

has_special_item(1) == empty_skins;

This doesn't work for two reasons, one of which is described above. The other is that you can't set a short the way you can set a variable. Use an SDF or another variable to hold this value if you need to hold it.

A few points in Overwhelming's defense, since this is not motivated out of malice (no matter what he thinks):

About 5: he did ask my permission at first. I had forgotten about this, but I think it's clear that my permission has been rescinded, as is my right to do at any time.

About 2: yes, the reasons I gave were different in my initial PM than in the first post of this thread. The initial reason was that I don't like the site and don't want to endorse it by supplying it with my work, but I stressed that there were many other reasons, of which the one I mentioned above is one. I noted above that there were other reasons, of which the one that I mentioned in my first PM is one.

Either way, my reasons matter less than my request. Overwhelming flatly refused rather than asking for a clarification of reasons, and he has done the same again. I am willing to explain my reasons in full if that's what he wants, but I think it shouldn't be necessary.

This is not a campaign to smear Overwhelming's name, which is why I am making this effort to clarify what is going on. I look forward to a resolution as soon as possible so that we can all move past this messy business.

Overwhelming, the fact that you do not read the e-mail sent to you as site administrator does not excuse ignorance of my requests.

I just want this to end as soon as possible. Remove my work (ALL of it) from your site and I will cease bothering you.

What on earth are you talking about? Did you make a custom graphic and insert it (in which case you might want to send that custom graphic to the Louvre so that we all can use it), or did you do some sort of black magic to get this to happen some other way (in which case I want to know what you did)?

Note that run_dialog is a SHORT, not a VOID. That means it's a number. If you want to make it do something, you have to do something like this:

choice = run_dialog(1);
if (choice == 1)
end();
If you want something that responds when the party searches, use the script specobj.txt, which is included in virtually every scenario released so far.

I have, as far as I know, fixed all the bugs. I just have to give it one last run-through, which should happen before the end of President's Day weekend.

I'm taking too many classes and working part-time, which is why my free time has been cut to virtually nil and this beta test has taken so long. Anyway, it should be out soon.

I was the one that linked to it. The Exile Trilogy sadly lacked walkthoughs in the forum header, which the Avernum Trilogy had. Someone made me aware of the existence of those walkthroughs, and I linked to them. :)

I appreciate the work, by the way. I steal all of my answers to questions about the games out of walkthroughs.

Inferno may be the most interesting part of it, but you might as well read the whole Divine Comedy if you're reading Dante.

There's always the Hindu epics, too, the Ramayana and such.

Isn't Pluto actually in two pieces anyway? I think I heard a report a while back that said that astronomers had taken a closer look and realized that it was two chunks of rock, not just one.

Yeah, Pluto doesn't really seem like a planet at all.
