weird BoA bug in Tech Support

At some point in the Valley of Dying Things, outdoor signs stopped working for me. When I look at them, the text window at the bottom says "sign," but no message box pops up to tell me what the sign says.

I have Blades of Avernum v.1.1.1 running on Mac OS X.

Any ideas?

Blades of Exile or Avernum? in General

I'm trying to decide which of these to buy. (Sure, this is the Spiderweb board, so somebody's going to say "Both!" But let's consider that not an option for now). ;)

Avernum: I like the updated graphics. This is the newest game and has the most potential for growth? But this game has been out for a while now, and I only see 1 scenario on Spiderweb's "Good Scenarios" list. What's the deal?

Exile: I think I like some of the more complex gameplay options. Dual weilding, ability to poison blades, things like that. And there are many scenarios on the list that look pretty good. But I suspect it will be hard to go back to the old style graphics and interface.

The third option is get Nethergate instead, which is sort of middle ground between the two in terms of graphics/interface. This was my favorite Spiderweb game back in the day, but when I went back to the demo, the old interface irked me (can't drag and drop items, no cool buttons for casting spells). That and the fact that every Celt player's inventory pic is that fuzzy-headed mustachioed dude. :(

Any chance for Nethergate revised (ala Avernum)? :D

PC / Mac question and EULA question in Tech Support

I'm considering buying an iBook and registering Avernum (I bought Exile I and II years ago, loved them, and realized that I still love them with Avernum). Right now I have the Avernum demo on my PC.

My questions are these:

1) Can I transfer my saved game file from PC to Mac? Can the Mac read the PC's .SAV file?

2) If I register before I buy the iBook, is there some way to migrate my full version from the PC to the Mac?

3) If I can do that, should I uninstall Avernum from the PC? Some software allows a license to be used on one desktop AND one notebook, I guess on the thinking that you'll only be using one at a time.

Thanks.
