Intro Pictures in Blades of Avernum Editor

Okay, I'm using ResEdit (and a Mac) and trying to add in some graphics for the intro sequence of my scenario. It just won't let me copy them over from Appleworks. I hit Paste, but nothing happens.

The images I'm working with are screenshots from the 3D editor, and I'm opening them in Appleworks so I have somewhere to copy them from. Each time I try, it gives me an "Out of memory! Please try again later!" error, and won't let me do anything else.

I'm out of ideas.

Just wanted to say that this scenario is fairly good. My only real issues with it were that it seemed just a bit too big (too much outdoors with too little plot), and it seemed to copy & condense AV3 (varying plagues caused by a malevolent foreign force?).

Other than that, wonderful. I can't believe I missed the Haaki's treasure room, though. Kind of a pity.

Well, now that I think of it, it probably helped that my party was level 45. Though I did have to shield people quite often.

Really, it's easy enough to just slip out after grabbing the package... you shouldn't have to fight everyone.

A small rebellion - help needed in Blades of Avernum

Always played for the rebels, for starters. But there's another wheel in that fort somewhere, which opens the gate to the wheel which lets you out of the fort. Check the areas around where you killed the general in charge.

Depends... are you using a Mac? That can really make a difference when you're importing graphics (curse you, you stupid black line).

I know if you're using Appleworks to load graphics into something like ResEdit, you have to copy the image from the far upper-left corner of the document, otherwise some pixels don't match up. Don't know why (or if it'll help you here), but it works that way.

Nope, but it's easy enough to make one.

Edit: In case I didn't make it clear, it isn't in any of the scenarios, and it isn't on any item list for them.

Okay... the game started deleting stuff from Hawke's Manse for me... it was incredibly annoying. I lost good scrolls and armor...

Quite true... but it works perfectly for my mage. Really, it offers little to no disadvantages. And you can always just uncurse it with the editor.

Wow... that is scrambled... it seems slightly novel in that you start out fighting goblins and end up killing Sulfras, but the novelty seems to end there. And if you can't explain the presence of anti-undead/anti-dragon items, you've got a plot hole.

Any other ideas?

Good point, Alorael. Undead blue rocks are awesome. But Dragons are basically living fireballs.

Interesting idea... who would win: Dragon or Crystal soul?

Non-playable, that'd have to be... wow that's tough.

Probably either Vahnatai or Drakes/Dragons. When you think about it... there aren't that many well-represented races.

Playable, definitely slith.

Well, I checked and it's lined up correctly. There aren't any spaces where there shouldn't be.
