—Alorael, doesn't actually know how well Macs handle ISO. Most of his very limited burning is with Toast and most of that is with DMG.

With all due respect, there is a difference between being an arrogant jerk who throws insults, and demanding in a candid and straightword way that you have intellectually rigorous standards in a debate.

There was at least one debate participant who lost track of the difference and veered into insults, but the so-called "pile-on" on Synergy was really just a pile-on on poorly explained arguments.

Complaining about member behavior here is kind of ridiculous. This is the Internet! There is no personal accountability, so people are jerks. Spidweb really has a much friendlier and more welcoming community in almost every respect than I would ever expect to find most places on the net, let alone in a gaming forum.

Importing Blades Of Exile Scenarios
The way to increase the number of BoA scenarios is mass – production: importing Exile scenarios into Avernum.

If you really want to be an author but have zero literary talent, then porting is the way to go. Ditto if you are an author and want to import one of your great Exile hits into the Avernum world. It is magical; choose the Import option and a few seconds later an entire scenario appears all at once!

Admittedly there are still some bugs to be worked out, a 3D editor is needed that can be compiled on any common compiler. Before this can happen the porting process commands will need to be revised. Easily enough done by a three – way reference: BoE Editor Help, the Bl A Fileio.c source file and BoA Script Reference. (The Bl A Fileio.c file is the one that actually contains all the commands used in porting, it is found in the official editor’s source code. Its analog in the 3D editor is Bl A Fileio.cpp.)

At the end of the day, BoE and BoA are very much different games, so the process will require a lot of manual effort, it can never be automated.

Oh wait, it's Thralni.
