One memory I liked was when we gang-raped Frahhamn and Sullust.

Jameson really did help- scroll through the archives, you might even be able to pinpoint where I started getting into him a little.

Other than that, I've rarely been influenced by books- it's usually books and people (and people usually affect me by antithesis).

EDIT: And ben, I'm glad to see that you've finally decided to accept the bible! Does this mean that you've finally listened to the words of Jesus and let go of your militaristic politics of hate, violence and disenfranchisement?

Resetting the automap? in Blades of Avernum Editor

It was not impossible- see, for example, Echoes' town 8.

It was effectively impractical and useless, though...

As for the dungeon idea: It would have to be something along the lines of the Ancient Cave of Lufia II. There are a set of rooms in each level, and some of them have a treasure chests, in which is an item (random). There are given monsters, randomly determined. The rooms are joined to one another randomly (sometimes omitting whole rooms).

Practically, this could be done by clearing all monsters via erase_char and then reviving random ones. Chests can be set to have randomized existences, and when they do exist, they can become blank terrains and have items inside. If the town is to be used multiple times, you can customize the objects in each room (set them up beforehand and use set_terrain(x,y,0) to ranzomize), and erase items on all spaces when the town is enterred.

Okay, that's really bizarre and time-consuming... But it IS possible.

EDIT: Also, you can use set_level and alter_stat calls to revert the party back to level 1 like Lufia II does... You'd just have to make sure to revert it afterwards.

Yeah, see. That's the thing, it's not really accurate.
How about this:

Welcome to General. Leave your testicles dangling off of the end of my bloody shears, since god knows if you're posting here, you won't be using them ever again.

This may be a bit drastic, but before you send it out for release, you can make all of the terrains and floors have no editor icon or an editor icon of just blackness.
Well, okay. That's more like disabling automap. But there you go.

Seriously, folks. The "Leave your sanity at the door" wasn't all that funny back in the day. Can we just pretend that it didn't get plastered on misc 2-3 years ago? I mean, it's like the generic way for greenthumbs to act hi-larious these days.

What's the difference?

(Mind you, I don't think that IE Mac is a bad browser- which is outright perverse, considering how horrible IE versions for Windows were at the time. It wasn't perfect, but its only huge problem was with proxies.)
