Sketching interest? in General
Lifecrafter
Member # 4682

I sketch, mostly cats and dragons. At some point I want to try a platypus. As for what I'd suggest to sketch, sketch animals and mythical beasts :D Or you could get a family member/friend(I hope you're friends with at least one person in your family) to model for you. Or you could use sketching as an excuse to travel(but do you really need one?) and draw what you see. You could go through photographs and magazines and try to draw from them. Or you could close your eyes, picture yourself flying over an imaginary place and every once in a while go in closer and look at what you see. That last one sounds weird, but I've gotten good results from it. I've seen a dragon, a house with a purple roof and a cool door, and really big tree. Okay, that's it.

Berger cookies. Half inch of chocolate piled on a shortbread cookie. My sisters started(and all of the rest of us followed) calling them crack cookies because they're really addictive.

I know I'll probably get flamed/laughed at for asking, but I'm experimenting with making items and I don't understand what it_icon_adjust does or what I'm supposed to put. Any help would be appreciated.

There are other problems with switching between the Lost Mine and Lost City. The game slows waaaaay down, graphics become choppy, and then everything speeds back up and becomes fine. The problem is only on entering/exiting.
I found that while beta-testing and reported it several times(for different versions). In the end, since it wasn't fixed, I figured it had to do with the editor/game itself and couldn't be fixed.

I played three times. First I sided with the Empire. Then I sided with the Hill Runners. The last time I played, I killed off both sides. The last time was my favorite :P

Funny, though the site seems to have trouble finishing sentences.

EDIT: My favorite one about Bush: 'George Bush is a monkey'.

whatsyourscenario? in Blades of Avernum Editor

Member # 4682

Eventully, when I learn how to do what I want on the editor, I'm going to make 'Twisted Happenings'. It's sad, but there's no better description then that to describe my idea. It has a lot of parodies, is anti-Bush, and is made with apologies to the cockroaches.

Currently, I'm working with my sister on 'Tempest' so we can both get better at scripting. I'm not going to say anything about it because if I do, you're going to develop an opinion of it before you play.

I'm also working on an untitled scenario, because with 'Tempest', it's mostly my sister's scenario, so I only get to toss out ideas and try and figure out the insrtuctions for scripting. The untitled scenario is about your party going on vacation to The Valley of Madness only to find that everybody has suddenly turned sane.

All of these scenarios will probably end up being short.

I signed it. I only tried out the demo once(though I've been debating getting it after I get Avernum 1&2), but if their customer service person isn't even going to be polite , let alone helpful, the petition needs every signature it can get.

My dad and I have been looking for this for ages so I could read it. It's called THE GASHLYCRUMB TINIES by Edward Gorey. It's a poem/short story about how 26 little children(one for each letter of the alphabet) died :P

I only go on AIM when I'm lonely to talk to my dad or aunt. I'm not allowed to talk with strangers on it.

Most of the time, yes, but I take walks and pet all the cats and dogs in my neighborhood too.

The idiodic(sp?) fair/party/random idiocy that the neighborhood arranges every summer. They goes as far to display cars, not special ones, mind you, ordinary, everyday cars. The day it runs I hide in the house and read/play computer games.

EDIT: Oh, yeah, we also have the Baltimore Book Festival and Artscape. I like both of them.

We do have the nodes set for the person(only one NPC so far). We're still working on the town script, maybe that's the problem.
