Small Rebelion Q-Where is the statue? in Blades of Avernum | |

Talk to "Marsh," who is in the far southeast corner of Zaskiva. Ask him what work he's doing, what the scrolls are for, who his friends are, and what Kenny does. Then walk leave that room, walk north until you get to a wall, west a teensy bit, and then north again. That will get you to Kenny. Ask him about the statues. He'll let you in. Go into the northwest corner of that room, and have fun as events unfold from there. EDIT: Apparently unnecessary. :P [ Wednesday, July 21, 2004 12:35: Message edited by: Kelandon ] -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens.

The statue's in the northeast corner of Zaskiva. You have to get Kenny (I believe) to let you in. Ask around. The other South Park characters will help you.

As far as making-Avernum-in-BoA and making-Exile-in-BoE ideas go, this one is considerably more loathsome than most. Not only is it of dubious merit in the first place, as all such ideas are, but it is probably impossible to do, and it is certainly not worth the effort even if it is possible. And to make matters worse, this is an IDEA for a scenario, not a statement of intent to make a scenario, which is usually part that redeems most such posts. You're not even stating your intent to make this; you're saying that you want SOMEONE ELSE to make it. Congratulations. I think you may have managed to combine every single bad idea that frequently comes up on these boards into one hideous post. EDIT: There's even "lol" in the topic title. This is a piece of art.

A completely strange thought: depending on what you're doing, you may want a terrain script for this, because those are the only things that are called every time a character moves in combat. (That is, if you want the anti-party to mirror the party *instantly* even in combat mode, the ONLY way to do that is using a terrain script's START_STATE.)

The new version of the HLPM (set for release later today, once I, er, work out one or two final bugs) strips the characters naked at one point on the "god" setting. It is rather odd to see what they look like without armor, because I'd actually never seen it before. I hadn't noticed until someone pointed it out that while casting spells, the PCs remain in pose 2 (normal combat) rather than going into pose 1 (attacking). It seems like they should just look like they're attacking, because it looks much cooler that way. -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens.

Splitting Up Party in Blades of Avernum Editor | |

You may be able to use erase_char to some effect here, but I've never tried it with the party. If I'm not mistaken, it would take care of the item issue. It is rather odd that we can't edit character status (by which I mean the status as found in char_status, not the normal kind). If BoA works like A3, NPCs may pick up items that are just lying on the ground, although I've never seen this behavior in BoA and it's not obvious in basicnpc. Otherwise items will stay put where they were dropped. EDIT: Ah, yes, Isaac tried something like this. It may be possible to use kill_char to edit a character's status into being split up, alive but not present, although I haven't tried it, and by the sound of it, Isaac didn't either. EDIT 2: I just played with this a little. kill_char(0,1,0) looks really cool. kill_char(0,11,0) does in fact edit the character's status to being split up, dropping the char's items, but reunite_party doesn't bring that character back, and kill_char doesn't work on someone that's not present. You could probably use split_off_one_char to work around this (basically, instead of reuniting the party directly, split off a character and then reunite the party), but it this would be tricky.

Although I am LOVING what I can do with TEH EVOL creature scripts going against higher level parties. One just has to be really careful while designing high level scenarios, because it's easy to fall into the trap to try to use poweful monsters to impress the player rather than interesting combat to engage to player and to try to use over-dramatized dialogue in place of real plot. If you stick to fundamentals while designing a high level scenario, they can be really good, but it's really tempting to forget about that in favor of "OMG NOW I CN HAV 20 DRGONS IN 1 BIG ROOM WTH 30 UGLIE ZOMBYS LOL." EDIT: I didn't want to say it, but TGM did it for me.

You can also find the purified essence in Phariton's Hall, and the other two places where you can get Create Drayk are in Rising and Zhass-Uss Outskirts.

Did you read those articles, Micael? I did go through all that trouble to hand-pick articles that I thought would be relevant, based on the comments on these boards, and made sure that they were not too BoE-exclusive. Regardless of whether you follow the advice in them, I think you should at least give them a perusal. EDIT: And I've imported to a different town number before. That is quite odd. I suggest you try it again. EDIT 2: The articles are here, seeing as how they've kind of gotten buried in all this.

Dear lord. What is the point of a socialist/communist system if the hospitals aren't free? That's a travesty. quote:Don't worry. We don't understand it, either (at least most of us).

I'm guessing those were the priests from the Temple of the Divine Lucre. If so, you screwed up nothing critical by attacking them, and I think you didn't screw up anything at all.
