dont like summons? in Avernum 4
Ephesos Law Bringer Member # 4153	written Monday, July 3 2006 21:11 Profile Homepage #18 Then again, there's always the fun of summons that summon summons that can summon more summons which can summon more summons to summon summons capable of summoning more of the first type of summons... Well, you know what I mean. It involved infinite chains of vampires, back when it was possible. But A4's weak summoning has since eliminated that fun possibility. -------------------- Thuryl: "Runescape: for people who are too stupid to save their games."

Graphics Hoard Unleashed Upon Ye in Blades of Avernum
Ephesos Law Bringer Member # 4153	written Monday, July 3 2006 06:33 Profile Homepage #18 quote: Originally written by The Lurker: quote: Originally written by Ayami xx: I like the vampire graphic that Enraged Slith reposted, and want to use it in "Twilight Vale", my next project. I thought your next project was 'The Demon Stone'? Or maybe you gave up? :confused: Perhaps it's just a name change. EDIT: Right, here's the editing I've done, rendered into PNG format. These trees are originally by Joaquin Soto, according to the Louvre, but they were in a very, very messy JPEG form. They've been fixed, colored a little better (in my opinion). Also, icons 1 and 12 in the sheet were fixed up because they looked too bare. These are the same trees, just resized and combined to make good outdoor tree clusters. I've only done it for those five or so trees, since they're the only trees I expected to use in Embers of Rebellion. I might do more, if there's call for it. Terraces to replace cliffs, for a look that I believe Lazarus wanted in his scenario. They're a bit too tall, but that can be easily fixed. Really, it's just that cliff with bits shifted around and copied. Ruins, including a burnt tree that's adapted from Joaquin's stuff. Basically just bits of buildings laid over rubble terrain. A trash heap. Simple, just items and terrain tossed into a lump. Another crafted with Lazarus' scenario in mind.

Graphics Hoard Unleashed Upon Ye in Blades of Avernum
Ephesos Law Bringer Member # 4153	written Sunday, July 2 2006 20:20 Profile Homepage #15 A lot of these graphics are in a strange that's really incompatible with most BoA graphics (most notably, the rips from Fire Emblem and such). Going way back, though, I like the edited Widow Queen graphic, and I might have to use it in an upcoming project, as I'm going to need some new monsters. Also, I love that gargoyle, and I want to use it somehow. Come to think of it, I've made and fixed some graphics, so I might have to post them soon. Specifically, I've fixed a lot of the imported Geneforge trees, and made them look a heck of a lot better (please, please, please... no more submitting graphics as jpegs! It ruins the quality and adds noise!). -------------------- Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice. I hate undead. I really, really, really, really hate undead. With a passion.

dont like summons? in Avernum 4
Ephesos Law Bringer Member # 4153	written Sunday, July 2 2006 19:32 Profile Homepage #12 Shades were great utility summons in A4. There were some fights when they could just do ludicrous amounts of cold damage to things you couldn't scratch (golems, etc). After all, Ice Lances and Smite really don't pack the same punch as a Divine Shade. That said, the rest of the A4 summons were pretty awful. -------------------- Thuryl: "Runescape: for people who are too stupid to save their games." Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice.

a question about the spell "daze" in Avernum 4
Ephesos Law Bringer Member # 4153	written Sunday, July 2 2006 19:27 Profile Homepage #4 Yeah, the person might be Dazed, but they should still be able to see what's going on right in front of them. Strong Daze, on the other hand... maybe if it was strong enough (in flavor terms) to induce unconsciousness. Then again, I'd just kind of like to see unconsciousness implemented in some Avernum game. It's something I've wanted to do in Blades, at least. -------------------- Thuryl: "Runescape: for people who are too stupid to save their games." Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice.

Mithril broadsword in The Avernum Trilogy
Ephesos Law Bringer Member # 4153	written Thursday, June 29 2006 18:20 Profile Homepage #1 Depends on what you're actually looking for. If you need the metal lumps, go to the Inn of Blades and look for a mage. (Or just look for a big granite spire in that general area of the outdoors) If you need to find the guy who forges the blade, go to Lennus. Or Squiggus. One of those two. Anyway, there's a room through a hidden wall in one of those towns, and the floor is electrified, so you'll know it when you find it. -------------------- Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice.

Avernum V ideas in Avernum 4
Ephesos Law Bringer Member # 4153	written Wednesday, June 28 2006 07:15 Profile Homepage #111 Well, as long as combat is being revamped in the series, I don't see why some of these wouldn't be half-plausible. Really, what I'd like to see more than any of that is to give some advantage back to human PCs. There's nothing to balance them against the clearly superior nephils and sliths. I mean, race-specific weapons/abilities, trait balancing, whatever it takes. -------------------- Thuryl: "Runescape: for people who are too stupid to save their games."
