ASR: Where's the sewer key? in Blades of Avernum
Infiltrator
Member # 4637
Profile Homepage #0
In "A small rebelion", in the sewers, i'm having trouble to open a door, so I'm stuck. I went north, got a key to open the door in the west/south. Killed all those fungus, proceeded untill I found a place that requires a tool skill of 18! I haven't that skill, my unlock doors spell doesn't work. I've already explored everywhere for a key or something, but I can't find it.

Anyone can help?

Lol, I'm curious if the game will play the same style as a powerpoint presentation. :D

I would try it in my notebook (P4 2800MHz, 512MB DDR RAM, ATI RADEON Mobility 9000 64MB), but it seems Doom 3's graphics engine uses the cards in a different way, that makes them overheat. I won't risk damaging my notebook. Again.

edit: it only overheats notebook cards. Desktop ones with a better cooling system won't.

It works fine in my old machine (with minimum detail) :)

No, they're hosted in the web. And can reach the site. Could you specify what's the problem? Maybe I can help.

Where BoA falls short in Blades of Avernum Editor

I should get some more sleep. Where's "where2, it should be read "we're". :D

About the size... That sample pic is 11KB big. We can always play with image size and compression quality...

Or just use this in key moments.

I have broadband internet, so size isn't really an issue to me, but I guess it can be for dial up modem users, for participating in the spidwebs contest (3MB maximum) or even hosting the file in the net...

But let's see: to have 3MB of images like the above one, you would have to make around 273 pics! :D And I guess you don't really need to use pics with all dialogues...

Another good point: you can use the font, the colours, etc you want.

Does anyone else notice the lack of scenarios? in Blades of Avernum

Member # 4637

Designing scenarios isn't an easy task. You need 3 things:

- Make a story/plot
- Design the towns/outdoors
- Scripting

For me, the worse part is the second one, no doubt.

Why don't just just place the text in the picture, like in the tutorial?

You could do something like this:
