What program are you using to compile your scripts. Multi-format programs normally save it in their natural form, and only save it in another form if specified. For example; Crimson Editor normall saves in it's own format, however, for scripting, I always have to add a .txt to the end. See what I mean ? :confused:

It would probably be a good idea to make your scenario first, using placeholder graphics, and then ask around for new ones only when you're done. There isn't really much incentive to make custom graphics if you don't even know that they will end up being used, since many scenarios usually end up taking up space on a hard drive somewhere because the designer lost interest.
I have to agree there.

No-one wants to waste valuable time making pictures, for the slight chance, slight, that they might be used in a scenario. Most people never finish them, so they're just saved on an old disk and put into the attic to gather dust.

Does your dlg script look anything like this?
begintalkscript;

variables;

body;

begintalknode 1;
state = -1;
nextstate = 2;
question = "Rolar-Tel";
text1 = "You're standing in front of an impressive looking Vahnatai. Judging from the training equiptment";
text2 = "he has in his room, he probably does a lot of physical excersice, as well as the Vahnatai mental excercises.";

begintalknode 2;
state = 2;
nextstate = -1;
question = "_Why is there fighting going on in this tower?_";
text1 = "_My... MOTHER... left some troops loyal to her behind. They did not surrender, so we have no choice but to";
text2 = "eliminate them ourselves, and take back this tower. Be warned, while my men will not harm you, the undead";
text3 = "that my mother left behind will. I hope that you do not die._ Rolar-Tel smiles warmly.";
It should look something like that, except with different words. Also, I made a mistake, monster files are corescendata.txt rather than corescendata2.txt

Anyway. Hope I've been of help.

Good luck though.

Yeah, it is. UV won't stand up to thorough examination when better scenarios come out, but it's about level with the current ones... so it won't be kicked off the air at least. I'm trying my hand on a Puzzle scenario at the moment, as well as fixing any proplems in UV. Hope that's all.

Thanks! It's not total fighting, there ARE a few things like... talking... walking around, etc. Undead Valley (UV) is basically a bunch of walking around, talking to people, getting confused, fighting, and having fun.

It's not a puzzle scenario, that's the one I'm just starting, and that'll be out in a few more weeks, since it doesn't have many specials.

The Puzzle scenario which I'm currently making, will appeal to a different side of Spidwebbers. I hope that they'll play my puzzle one, and show a bit more enthusiasm than they have3 about UV.

A Traversai is;

add_dialog_str(0,"You have heard tales of this phenomenon. You think back on when you went to training school, remembering what the old wizard had said. _A TRAVERSAI, taken from the word TRAVERSE, to get from one place to another.",0);
add_dialog_str(1,"A TRAVERSAI is a magical gateway, similar to a Portal only in the fact that it transports you from one place to another. A TRAVERSAI is a very dangerous plane of existance, and any who travel them are warned to be wary,",0);
add_dialog_str(2,"For the TRAVERSAI is the creation of a powerful Mage, Priest, Sorceror or Wizard. They take you from one destination to another. However, since the use of Portals have become more prominent, TRAVERSAI have slowly dwindled away.",0);
add_dialog_str(3,"Very few people now know how to create one. A TRAVERSAI is easily distinguishable by the fact that it's landscape is split into two parts, the origintamal position, and the destinatamal position. The origintamal position is always the Top half",0);
add_dialog_str(4,"Of the Landscape, and the destinatamal is the lower half of the landscape. The two halves appear to just be straight lines across the overall landscape. There is generally one town or such place as might be called a town in a TRAVERSAI.",0);
add_dialog_str(5,"Only in the rare cases that the person who cast the TRAVERSAI having a split personality makes the TRAVERSAI contain two towns. TRAVERSAI towns are the most dangerous part of the TRAVERSAI, mostly, as they contain the ideas of the person who...",0);
add_dialog_str(6,"Created the TRAVERSAI. Normally, after passing the TRAVERSAI towns, which are called RAHVERSAI, you will reach the end of the TRAVERSAI._ You sigh, and decide to press onwards, into the Traversai.",0);

I hope that explains a few things to you lot. :D

Oh, yes, you CAN talk about this in the Topic set aside for it in the Boa Forum, you know... I think...

And "GRAPHIC 2000" may be a custom graphic that's in your BoE scenario, and you haven't put in your BoA folder (or something). And PORTING is so much harder than REMAKING

Or you just simply could get rid of ALL of the standard monsters, and create totally new ones, though that would intail massive amount of scripting, even though to start with all you have to do is copy corescendata2 into SLITHSCENARIOdata. Then you would have to painstakingly edit EVERY single monster. It would be hard, but it would also be worph it, especially because even experienced players wouldn't know how to defeat the separate monsters, so they'd have a challenge also. *thinks* That's actually a good idea. Maybe for my next scenario, I could make it withing the Nephil cities, in a war...

Undead Valley Testing Version 4 is finally complete. Once that's done, it should be available for download soon (hopefully). Also, if you don't want to wait for it to be available for download before seeing glimpses of it, go to the UNDEAD VALLEY SCREENSHOTS page, and see what YOU think about it. Please do not post there, since I'll be forced to move them to the correct topic.

Thanks!
