If you have any need for more Win Testers, I should have some spare time around now (I've been getting really bored lately), so it would give me something to do. Email adress -:- archmagusmicael@gmail.com experience in testing -:- Um, not apart from lousy alphaing. what are the main things you look at when testing -:- Spelling and general bugs. gender -:- the OS you will use to test -:- WinXP BoA Testing Centre Name -:- Micael So just drop me a line if you need any more testers. A ZIP or RAR file would be best, but I've got stuffit on the other PC, so I can always read those nasty .SITs. - Archmagus Micael [ Monday, May 08, 2006 09:21: Message edited by: Archmagus Micael ] -------------------- "You dare Trifle with Avernum?" ~ Erika the Archmage -------------------- My Scenarios: Undead Valley : A small Undead problem, what could possibly go wrong? -------------------- Richard Black - PROOF of his existance (the Infernal one's website). -------------------- MY FORUM!

I'm tempted to email JV and ask, but I don't really want my idea to be smashed by him. Perhaps this is what happens with the Shapers?

:D While we can all say that stopping disease is very good and all, and that it can be done, albeit with difficulty, some of us have to wonder whether you should stop the disease. If there was a worldwide pandemic it would do wonders for population control. However, as I don't think anyone wants this soon, we do need to get a way of destroyng diseases quicker than we already have. I also have to disagree with saying that we are better equipped to deal with diseases than in the Middle Ages. Back then the diseases were also simple things, these days they have evolved along with us to be immune to all the various drugs etc that we use. I mean, we've never been able to get rid of the common cold - have we? - Archmagus Micael -------------------- "You dare Trifle with Avernum?" ~ Erika the Archmage -------------------- My Scenarios: Undead Valley : A small Undead problem, what could possibly go wrong? -------------------- Richard Black - PROOF of his existance (the Infernal one's website). -------------------- MY FORUM!

Okay. You can get this new file you wanted uploaded Here. A quesiton - is this meant to work on a WIN computer, or only on MAC?

Glad you enjoyed the game. ;) I found the recharge annoying, but quite frankly no-one expected great things from Avernum 4. This game was the "engine-tweaker". Avernum 5 is meant to be polished. The monster AI while stupid did manage to get archers to hammer at me properly though, maybe it's just you. The weight is fine by me, as it's good enough. The AP system of the previous Avernum's was FAR better, but I think that it'll get better as you get used to it. Turrets = Annoying. Simple as that. Don't expect anything more from them. - Archmagus Micael -------------------- "You dare Trifle with Avernum?" ~ Erika the Archmage -------------------- My Scenarios: Undead Valley : A small Undead problem, what could possibly go wrong? -------------------- Richard Black - PROOF of his existance (the Infernal one's website). -------------------- MY FORUM!

quote:The golems were the game's real challenge I think. In Tinraya and then later Rentar's keep, it was all just brute force needed. And by that time you had plenty of it. The golems were by far the most enjoyable of the plagues. But then again, I've won both Exile 3 and Avernum 3, and every time I defeated every plague before entering Tinraya. - Archmagus Micael -------------------- "You dare Trifle with Avernum?" ~ Erika the Archmage -------------------- My Scenarios: Undead Valley : A small Undead problem, what could possibly go wrong? -------------------- Richard Black - PROOF of his existance (the Infernal one's website). -------------------- MY FORUM!

Guys, If any of you are intereseted in an RP, we would love some more RPers over at my forum's RP Corner. At the moment we're RPing in the world if Kruahv, crated by Infernal666hate. I hope this will attract a few of you, as RPing with this few people isn't much fun.

quote:I wouldn't say that it was the Avernum's "Superior graphics" that make me play Avernum. I honestly prefer E3 and BoE's. But I play Avernums etc now, because they run best on the computers, and I've never been able to "grasp" Exile 1. I guess I'm too young for that, and need a little bit of high-tech :P . Exile 2 I played, but then it stopped working a long time ago, so I just played the Avernums bottom-up. Nethergate's also a great game, though I've never registered it. Honestly I'd wait for the updated version before checking it out, but yes, it's a good game. I think the best game out by general consensus is Avernum 2, which has the best storyline, and doesn't feel ridiculously repeated hack'n'slash. The Geneforges were good in the beginning (GF1), but have gradualy gotten worse from there. However, I think we all, me at least, have great hopes for GF4. You may want to check out Geneforge 1, and play it, but you might not want to play the other two, as they're just repeats of each-other. I don't know about the RW games, but I must say that Homeland is classified as a computer virus, so don't download it. It not only damages your PC but also gives you significant mental problems. - Archmagus Micael -------------------- "You dare Trifle with Avernum?" ~ Erika the Archmage -------------------- My Scenarios: Undead Valley : A small Undead problem, what could possibly go wrong? -------------------- Richard Black - PROOF of his existance (the Infernal one's website). -------------------- MY FORUM!

Hmm. I had the editor do something similar once when a graphic was whacked. When I fixed the graphics, it fixed itself. Dunno why, but it did.
