I spent a few hours on design work. It raised a question though. Is there any method to raise or lower large areas from within the 3d editor? I'm trying to work with height, and it seems difficult when done on a square by square basis.

Please? Seriously. Don't bother. You may think mazes are neat, but they are more fun to design than as a good environment for BoA scenarios. Don't do it. For additional opinions, look at the previous post.

Here's a wild idea for the portal scenario.

Have the "monster" be some entity that is unknowingly transported from that parallel dimension (or wherever), it is confused and angry and just wants to get back home. It would not be visible or tangible to the party, but the effect it has on its surroundings would be visible.

Then, as stareye said, the party needs to
1. identify the cause of the murders
2a. eliminate the intruder
2b. help the intruder get home
2c. give up the lost cause and run home to mommy
3. assuming mages are still alive, let them know what you discovered so that they don't decide to keep probing that dimension and possibly invite another creature.

Comcast is a well known American supplier of wire-based services (cable tv, internet and phone) and it may be that Jeff hooked up a sweet deal where he got lump-summed and gave them the rights to distribute those two games at those prices. They certainly have a wider audience than spidweb.com and the shareware cds.

You might go ahead anyways and drop Jeff a line to verify that this is the case. Otherwise they may have the prices wrong, but if you can buy direct from them, without Jeff's permission, it just screams out keygen. I wonder if you did buy from them, and then needed a reinstall, if Jeff would supply a new key??

How do I install Avernum 4? in Tech Support

I guess brevity doesn't mean clarity. By the same token, I understand that English is not your first language and you do quite well within your limits. I will attempt to be clearer.

It would be more pleasant if you did immediately begin criticizing upon reading a thread that makes your blood boil, especially since your comments are usually founded upon a incomplete understanding of the English language.

For instance, the originator of this thread quite clearly stated that he had used OS 9 regularly, but had bumped up to OS 10.x and then encountered this problem. His issue is installing A4 on his new computer. You seem to have a habit of taking 3rd party critiques as personal attacks, and this was a further example.
quote:
Its more like pushing me in the face
I felt the need to suggest you not click on that button because you neglected to add anything to the topic. As an experienced OS 9 user, you should have been happy to point him in the right direction, rather than
quote:
punching someone in the face and then telling them you don't want to start a fight?
It makes the world a nicer place when everyone just listens, and then tries to understand what they heard. And then, maybe, create a response which moves the conversation forward. That's all I ask. You might even point in the direction of a download site for StuffIt Expander, since I understand the absence of that program is his true dilemna. (Hopefully it is freeware, otherwise point him to any Macompatible un-zipping software.)

Well, yes. I'm sorry if I offended somebody, I just don't like that sort of statements about things one possibly doesn't know to well.

Let me put it this way: if its true that he didn't use Mac OS 9 for longer then a week or two, consider my critisisme as still there, while if he used for longer then that and knows the system good enough to say something about it, I have said nothing.

I have a crappy scenario that has been mostly finished, a second version of the same scenario that requires much work, and no free time right now. But it's all there (points) in that drawer, waiting for me. Someday.

I occasionally play BoA. Just completed testing one of Smoo's scenarios and then got distracted by a Mac on DSL (A4) until that party ended. Now it is back to home, and work, and whatever else that entails.

I think you need to discover that location as it applies to an artifact quest. Not sure which one, but your hint booklet has that info.

Christmas means traveling to visit people you deliberately don't live near. Christmas is encouraging families to live outside their means for one week, instead of spreading out the joy over the entire year. Christmas is a financial dream for retailers and credit card companies.

So yeah, I'll enjoy Christmas. It'll mean snow.

Unless, of course, you mean a supercomputer and not just a superior personal computer.

Or if he meant to actually BUY the concept. One mass-producted hunk of time wasting plastic won't set you back very much, but to become the owner of those things, whatever they are, would cost the billion.

Why buy an example, when you can get the whole thing?

I'd buy administrative rights to this board and make slight changes to the CoC. Also more strict membership requirements. I'd probably give the balance to leftist guerilla groups to aid their fights for freedom. And since this is imaginary money, and it seems multiple people are wishing TM well with his time machine endeavor, I would help by using the "ends justify the means" clause in my moral code. That would make happiness.
