I just wonder why it takes months to port the game for the PC.

Anyway, it looks like PC users won't have a christmas present, unlike Mac users...

I don't see how can I explain more directly. :(

Did you do this:

1. Extract Alint.exe to the folder where your scripts are located.

?

Alint.exe must be in the same directory where your script files are. Also, if the scripts have no error, nothing appears, so that's ok. Try introducing an error in your script and check again, just to see if alint detects it.

Hummm... I forgot to say... After each "type" instruction, you should press the "Enter" key...

Example:

3. Type "cmd", without the "", and press the Enter key.

Okay, so I've decided to try to work Alint. And I don't even know what a cmd.exe window is, not how to open one. Anyone feel like pointing me in the right direction?

1. Extract Alint.exe to the folder where your scripts are located.
2. Click "Run" in the "Start" menu.
3. Type "cmd", without the "".
4. Type "cd\", without the "".
5. Type: cd "c:\YourScriptFilesPath\", WITH the "".
6. Type "Alint -v yourscriptfile.txt", without the "". Example: alint -v t12draco.txt

You can omit the -v parameter, or use others. Just type "alint" alone, to see available comands.

Please Ash Lael, be considerate: I was just saying that the BTC could be used for that purpose (not only for beta testing). Also I was just offering to help in good will, no need to be harsh.

The BTC forum is all about private boards, so a scenario designer can request a private board for his game, in which he will be the administrator, allowing access to whoever he wishes (consultants, beta testers, ...).

So the discussions wouldn't fall to public domain. :)

I think that's a good idea. I even suggested that and made the beta testing center available for it. As I said, it doesn't have to be only for scenarios in final stages of development, it can be used in any other stages, where the colaboration of two or more people make that system an interesting medium for it.

I use the mouse the most. And you don't have to click that many times, you can click and hold, to advance continuously.

But since the mouse control hasn't that great precision (sometimes, a single click causes my party to advance two spaces instead of one), I see my self using the keyboard when I just want to move a little (like when opening doors, check all shelves in the a library, etc).

This is true for Avernum 1, which is the game I'm playing now. I think in BoA I didn't have that problem.

I remember playing Exile II, and that being the first game that really kept me playing. Before that, I had played Exile I, but it didn't convince me to register.

I guess I would recommend Avernum 2, the upgraded version. (Just out of nostalgia, installed Exile 2 and... Uninstalled it after 10 minutes. :P ).

Also, you should try the Nethergate demo. :)

I guess an holidays release could be more profitable, although tradition indicates around March 2006 for Mac release, and earlier summer for Windows release.

But I'm just speculating.

I'm 26 and I studied psychology and gerentology (don't know it's called like that in english)as part of my medicine course (here that course takes 6 years in university plus two of internship. Then add more years for specializations and respective internships).

Also I have some (internship) experience, dealing with people with 55+ years old with varied problems, including psychological.

I concede that psichology is not my favored or better area, but I guess your ratiocination isn't accurate. :)

I don't understimate people. I think he understood what I mean, without me entering in details. I don't think this is the place to discuss that matter.

Anyway, I didn't forbid him anything. Just gave an advice. Once more, your prejudice/preconceit about me makes you interpret my words in a wrong way.

Try to be a little bit more respectful. You intentionally disrespected me. Being a moderator adds more responsability to your behaviour.

It takes longer because of little time to play, probably.
And careful examination must be done (some obscure NPC in an out of the way place might use bad words, for example).

Anyway, the choice is made, why does it take so long to write the names in an html file and submit it to the site? :P
