Where is it? I have areas around Silvar explored and all areas in Silvar both above ground and underground except for area where bad spirit is and no pylon. I had no problem finding Cotra Pylon. Is my game corupted? Also every now and then I get black horizontal-diagonal streaks. These don't do any harm but this is only place this happems. Finally if I post I get into an endless loop returning me to my post (Windows XP) I can I get out of this without leaving Spiderweb board? Tia. Posts: 17 | Registered: Wednesday, June 8 2005 07:00 |

I have a slith fighter, slith priest nephil archer and nephil mage. A male and female in each pair. I find they are happier travelling together. Mage has the skill that enhances picking locks as well as mage enhancer. Priest has in addition to priest enhancer ,divinely touched. She advances much slower--in Early Eastern Shores she is an 8 vs 9 and 10's for others. But she fights rreasonably well with spear and shoots well. Divine touch is very powerful and worth the exp penalty. Please excuse any misnaming of game elements. I may be the oldest woman playing this game and may be descending into senility.

Thanks for the quick replies. And they helped me find them. The older saves are in the My Documents folder. Have no idea why Druid saves went to the desktop. I can move them to My Documents and search for the druid or gremlin which changed the save as path. :) ;) Posts: 17 | Registered: Wednesday, June 8 2005 07:00 |

I finished the four vendor scenarios with a party in the low 30's. I dl'd some senarios and tried A large Revolution which was too buggy. Next tried Druids. This scenario starts ok. I saved several times. Unfortunately Druids eliminated my BoA save files including some scenario ends and places its saves on my desktop. BoA now points to those saves and there are no saves in the BoA directory. Can I get Druids to save in the BoA folder and can I get my other save folder back? I am running Windows XP with Norton Utilities and Go Back. The files should be in the recycle bin but since there is no valid directory I can't access them. Any help? FYI I am older and completely non-techie on personal computers. Posts: 17 | Registered: Wednesday, June 8 2005 07:00 |

No, I am not there. I am no good with pictures. But when you boat up to the gates, there is a strip to the left-west, just wide enough to walk on until I reach the first of two large stalactamites. in the water rocks block the boat. Beyond the two stalactites (or mites) the wall ends and the ground goes north. Is there a secret door? I tried to find one with no success. As for the editor suggestion-- I haven't the foggiest idea how to use it. I was a computer tefchie on a main frame in my working days but retired some years ago and am minus all pc technical skills.

No-- they are the large kind. That's why I can't walk. This is windows version. Guess I can't go on. Isn there a user scenario for a team that is level 18-19? My crew is too weak for the last in the series. My only other option is get spells, etc., from this and replay 2 to get stronger. Posts: 17 | Registered: Wednesday, June 8 2005 07:00 |

I have just started playing BoA with a registered copy and hint book. I have two puzzlements: 1. Search Sage House in scenario 1. I found it and the magic barrier which my crew can pass throgh. But search of either bookcase reveals nothing. Bug? (I use windows) or am I doing something wrong? 2. Do you have to finish the first scenario to start another one? And what goes with you to next one? Experience but what else? I am still in the Magery school, near the end of level 1. My crew is now level 7 as I explored the whole outdoors but I wanted to peek at the next scenario. Posts: 17 | Registered: Wednesday, June 8 2005 07:00 |

Thanks guys for the advice. How do I know if an item needs to be identified? So far my group knows what things are -- for example the gold ring and its value. :) The interface is difficult at first though I have played GF 3. I restarted with a custom group and will have to see how they fare. In peace, Alma Posts: 17 | Registered: Wednesday, June 8 2005 07:00 |

Lankan will take the canister if you have it. You have no option to refuse. If you want to keep it, you must talk to him before taking the canister. Since Shirin is loyalist, I had to go back to a save prior to taking the canister. Posts: 17 | Registered: Wednesday, June 8 2005 07:00 |

I am playing windows demo. Agent got spell power at pools. Restarted with Shaper and get no essence at pools in either lower or upper school, or from the refresher item given by npc. Hence at level 3 has to essence only. What am I doing wrong? Or do I have a corrupted object program? This my first playing of any geneforge game and will probably register after a bit -- that is if I can get Shaper essence updated. At moment I have one useful shaper with me.
