Okay you two, I'm testing it myself at the moment, and then I'll email a copy to the two of you.

P.S. I forgot to mention that it's for Windows. Does that matter with you two?

Blades of Avernum glitch? in Tech Support
Agent

A glitch? That's just plain weird. I managed to get into the place easily enough.

1) Have you talked to Lord Maynard thoroughly?

2) Have you seen the Vahkohs sign scribbled on the door. If you haven't, try looking at it again, and then talk to Maynard.

3) Pull your party out of the Scenario with your Party Editor and restart it. When you do this get a new copy of the Scenario. Here's one that works: http://hometown.aol.co.uk/Micael%20456/FORUMSPIDWEB/index.html

4) Use the Advanced option and look carefully through each different Special Item. (SAVE AS A DIFFERENT SAVE EACH TIME YOU DO THIS)

5) Use the Scenario Editor to Edit the Game.

I can't think of anything else - sorry.

Here it is. I know some people must have trouble getting to it (I had to try several different ways before I got into it. AOL doesn't appear to like it)

the First Annual Blades Of Avernum Graphic Design Competition


Sponsored by Olympia


The entry deadline for the Graphic Design Comp. is October 1st, 2004.

Are YOU a talented graphic artist, with a desire to soar to the lofty heights of fame within the BoE/BoA community? Well then by all means, Graphics may be entered into the following categories:

Original Creatures
Edited Creatures
(* Creatures includes both PC and Large Creature graphics!)
Original Floors
Edited Floors
Original Terrains
Edited Terrains
Items
Dialogue Pics
Original Splash Screens
(* Splash Screens include both Scenario Introductory screens and Dialog-Display pictures.)

All graphics are original if and only if they are hand-made (or the electronic variant thereof). Inspiration is feasible, but cutting and copying parts makes it an edited graphic. All graphics should be sent to: terrorsmartyr@wi.rr.com. Qualifications of all entries shall be the sole discretion of Olympia staff (read as: me).

The deadline is October 1st. So what are you waiting for?


Submit!!!

It came while I was testing my scenario. My party was walking in town.
It shut down BoA and I had to re-start my computer.
I deleted town number 4, where I got this unhandled exception. Then I made new town and it came again.

I had the same thing. I think it's to do with an invalid number you gave the computer. It happened to me with Graphics: I changed the Wall pic and typed in an invalid thing by accident. After that whenever I tried to look at the wall in the proper game I got that same bug. It was hell, I'm telling you. Anyway, all you have to do is check if any of your custom numbers are invalid.

- Magic and Technology are NOT a good combination

P.S. Tell me how it goes...

You should have the surface ruled by the Nephils, and the Underworld ruled by the Sliths, and Humans and Vahnatai, and any other races, are extinct. So everywhere a human goes the town attacks you, trying to get a live specimin. Only the rebels help you...

Archimage Micael

P.S. Does Archimage really sound better than Archmagi?

About the territory marking: The nephilim have a tribal culture, right? Wouldn't this sort of... defeat the purpose of any marks?

Hairballs and fur-licking: I can imagine a Nephil licking his fur clean... it's a weird picture, but what speaks against it? ;)

They will have marj=kings, but TRIBE markings, so that other Nephilim tribes know to stay away. I mean, come on. Nephil probably squabble as much as us petty humans, or the Sliths -(WHICH AREN'T ALWAYS EVIL!)

Thanks. If possible I'll try to use a suitable sound file - but I haven't quite figured out how to put in custom sounds (for towns). I'll just have to ask in the Editor Forum.

Beastmaster is a bit stupid - isn't it. I mean, you get much more powerful things with Divinely Touched.

If I re-make the Poll I'll remember to add a 'No Trait' Selection, and also fix some of the otehr problems.

With langyages like this, 0 = 1, 1 = 2, 2 = 3, etc.

So basically Choice 0 means Choice 1,

And Choice 1 means Choice 2.

Understand?

improvements for geneforge 3.... your thoughts in Geneforge Series
Agent
Member # 4506
Profile Homepage #210
Guys,

Here's my list of new things for either GF3 or BoG;

* Male/female graphics for your character

* Supreme Living tools - worth 5x Living Tools.

* Default attack for the creations with both a melee and missile/magic attack

* More colors of clothing for your character

* More slots in your pack

* More sound effects

* Weapon durability - it gets damaged. etc.

* Creations that can create creations -{Apprentices)

* Another type of Creation. Eg. Water Shaping / Air Shaping

* Make your own AI scripts

* Different pictures for special items - one or two different ones are SO boring!

* Boats to help you travel across water zones

* Mutate creations - attempt to make your own creations, like your creations are originally made. This could be good - or bad

* Flying creations

* Scenario editors - If not for GF 3 then BoG

* Music - (For when you do something major)

* Make your own apprentices as creations.

* Able to create more different creations than just four

* Online Arena play against or with other players.

* Character editor - Definitely!

* More opinions available - and more complex

* Luck should be used more - such as when you lie. eg. When you lie to someone if you have high enough luck - they beleive you - otherwise - off with your head!

* You should be able to restart the game with the same shaper and creations, so that you don't have to start again.

* The difficulty levels should determine how many monsters there are as well as how hard they are

* The Start-Up Picture should be made to look nicer. I personally preffered GF1's to GF2's.

Thanks,

Please tell me if I should have put any other important ones up. But I mean, some of them were just totally riduculous.
