Forcing custom graphics in Blades of Avernum

Judging from past experience, if you email Jeff, he's more likely to deliberately take the ability to override default graphics out of the Mac version than put it into the Windows version. Yeah. But if something's only for MAC, or only for WIN, it makes it useless anyway. Emailed asking how he's doing it in his Ursagi one. - Archmagi 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!

Forcing custom graphics in Blades of Avernum Editor
Archmagus Micael Agent Member # 4506	written Tuesday, May 24 2005 02:16 Profile Homepage #0 Guys, I'm pretty sure this can be done, but I don't know how. What I want to do is to "Force" one of my own custom graphics over the standard BoA character pictures. So basically, I want to the game to read MY custom graphic instead of the standard, but I don't want to permanately affect BoA. I want this to work JUST in my scenario, and not in others. I hope that makes sense. I heard that someone else was doing something similar, just with Ursagi. Maybe that code will help...

get_what()? in Blades of Avernum
Archmagus Micael Agent Member # 4506	written Monday, May 23 2005 21:51 Profile Homepage #6 quote: Originally written by Thuryl: I've been using get_sdf() for everything. If people are reporting it doesn't work, I may have to go back and change all my scripts. Botheration. I found that it works about 50% of the time, so I changed to get_flag(). Anyway, make it how you want. It's easy to change. You just open it in Word, or a similar program, and do FIND AND REPLACE, and replace them all in a click of a buton. You'll have to do this for each script, but it's easy enough. - Archmagi 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!

Undead Valley in Blades of Avernum
Archmagus Micael Agent Member # 4506	written Sunday, May 22 2005 10:33 Profile Homepage #10 Okay: Okay, kind of a lot of stuff, but I think this is the last of it. The First Tower: The name is a bit odd for a town. No-one ever said the Vahnatai had good names for places. In A3 and E3 Rentar's tower was called Tower, or Fortress or something. This just continues that tradition. It is meant to be like this. What is that sound of something being destroyed when the town is entered? Nothing collapses, but there is a sound that implies something happened. This i honestly don't know, and have tried to track down before (without success) When I'm walking south along the east wall I hear creatures fighting. By the text at the bottom of the screen an “Aranea” and an “Elder aranea” are fighting. Did you intend on some of them being friendly? Also the “a” in “Elder aranea” should be capitalized. Fixed it. SOme of them were hostile A, when they were meant to be Hostile B Vahnatai Wall: It is still possible for the player to go around the town following the outer walls. If you want them to have to go through the town you need to make walls, cliffs, rock, or trees that extend to the edge of the map, You are meant to be able to go around it. But since you can get a second Bladesmaster sword here... Pit of Vahanatai: When you see Rentar Ihrno you get the massage: “You come face to face with Rentar Ihrno - again. This time she's really here, and doesn't look happy.” The PC is not told that the first encounter was with a shade (back in First Tower, with the dialogue box), so arguably this doesn't need to be said. Maybe not, but it does definitively say what is going on Magical Grove: In the inn there is a flogon on the floor behind the bar. Either that is meant to be on the counter or the innkeeper doesn't clean up. Fixed that. Considering she's just a simulacrum, she can't (or shouldn't) be untidy. About Dialogue: In Magical Grove while speaking with “Merchant” the text looks right. There is none of _this_, and when talking to “Slith high priest” (should be capitalized) some lines are like _this_ and some are not. Being that it's only like that some of the time it suggests this is a scripting problem rather than a Mac/PC problem. It's an error with scriptingthjat occurs in Macs. Jeff's script just works around it. Mine doesn't. I will fix that when I send it to Spidweb, and have it released onto MAC Outside of Magical Grove: There is a waterfall the flows from the sky. Check your terrain in that area. Something is not right about the way the different levels work. Maybe hills are needed in places, or certain places need to be elevated or lowered. Sorry that is so vague, but it just doesn't feel right the way it is laid out. Also southwest of the town is a cliff with no waterfall, very odd looking. Hmm. Terrain looks a bit better now Password: memphis, egypt Yay! I've had to change this again! So, Version 9.4 includes this official bug report, and also an unofficial bug report, from an unnoficial tester. - Archmagi Micael P.S. Version 9.4 is availiable to download from the same URL as 9.3 P.P.S. Also, Does anyone else have any of the orginial UV versions?

Archmagus Micael Agent Member # 4506	written Saturday, May 21 2005 23:13 Profile Homepage #7 Okay. Read your report. Considering it only contained 2 errors, I think that was quite good. * I must have accidentaly put wind.txt in the oldfiles.rar file (though I can't be certain!) * I probably never moved the inn's MOVE_PARTY location when changing it into Magical Grove. Surprising this bug hasn't been picked up before! The Quests are going to stay like that, even in hte finished version. It's the only way that you can see what quests you have been given earlier in the game. Hopefully other scenarios will begin to adopt this. Good job on getting the password!
