That's what I thought to at first, but I doublechecked everything and it seemed to be fine, Unless the editor's coordinates don't match the coordinates of the game, which seems very strange and highly unlikely. Can be coused by the amount of move_to_new_towns I had in the script? i couldn't find another way to let cutscene stop, without the party ending up again on the place where they started the cutscene by stepping on a special. Kelandon, is this the same problem as you had? EDIT: yes, they also have enough space for as I can tell. There is this corridor, sort of tunnel, in which the party should appear. Also, if the party accidentely gets placed outside of that tunnel, on the wrong side of the walls, then you should still see thr party, right?

I actually didn't know you liked metal and rock and that sort of stuff, kelandon. That's something new for me. once I used to like it too, but since I play the trombone, that has faded completely.I mostly listen to Russian classical composers. What is it actually with classical music that people tend to think its boring? classical music can be very intense, and sometimes even have a beat. You just have to pick the right composer. Also, I know of a lot of bands (Maybe that's a bit exagurated) that use classical instruments, like the violin or cello. -------------------- Play and rate my scenarios: Where the rivers meet View my upcoming scenario: The Nephil Search: Escape.

Thanks Ephesos, here is a screenshot of the problem. this in town 30: Trash pits. As you can see, you are in the town, you can every function you want (pick up itms, eter combat mode) except just walking. You also don't appear on the map and the screen is black. -------------------- Play and rate my scenarios: Where the rivers meet View my upcoming scenario: The Nephil Search: Escape.

I restarted the scenario, but the fault was still there. I have no clue of what it can be whatsoever. Will it help if I post the scripts of the culprit town? And no, I still don't know how to take a screenshot on a Mac (Mac OS 9.2). -------------------- Play and rate my scenarios: Where the rivers meet View my upcoming scenario: The Nephil Search: Escape.

favorite composer, eh? there are many, many composers which I like: Wagner; Elgar; Tschaikovsky; Rachmaninow; Prokofiev; Mahler; Shostakovich; Bach; Beethoven; Bernstein; Del Borgo; Khachaturian; Britten; Holst. My favorite, the ultimate trombone player on earth: Christian Lindberg. he plays the flight of the bumble bee ona trombone. the ones who know how difficult the flight of the bumble bee is and how difficult playing on a trombone can be, can understand the quality of the playing of Lindberg. -------------------- Play and rate my scenarios: Where the rivers meet View my upcoming scenario: The Nephil Search: Escape.

Yes, I have heard people play the recorder well. I also listened a bit to the songs you gave a link to, and came to the same conclusion as I already had. I just don't like the sound of a recorder. Sometimes I do like flites, but not that often. i don't exactly know what it is I don't like about the recoder's sound. Its mainly, I think, the woody sound. Its hard to describe it proparly. I assume that there are also instruments you don't like, Alorael? -------------------- Play and rate my scenarios: Where the rivers meet View my upcoming scenario: The Nephil Search: Escape.

Its clear that nobody here saw the rage of burned pitta (if anybody knows what it is). I forgot once to turn down on the heating of the microwave before starting the machine. the room filled up with smoke. never thought a pitta could actually make so much smoke... EDIT: yes, Synergy is actually quite right (see next post). This is a useless comment, not to say redundant. That actually boils down to the same. Oh well. Why is it actually Alorael doesn't get a custom title?

Me, my family, my dead cat, the almighty chicken gods and the child I saw falling of his bike just now, wish you all happy christmas and a merry new year! Or something like that... This year will hopefully be nice, as in six months I'll get a new computer.

Yes, that's what I thought would help, kelandon. The rpoblem then, is that I'll have to go through my whole scenario again, and I just don't feel like it. I guess I'll have to anyway. *i, I'll post a screenshot later. EDIT: Um, how the hell do I make a screenshot on a Mac while playing BoA?

Now that all works, I have a problem with entering a town. When you step on the special rectangle in one town, you should end up in the other town, but it deosn't happen. Well, it happens, but not as it should be. the party doesn't appear on the map, and the playing screen turns black (so not the whole screen, only where you should see the party). why does this happens (And by the way, we are talking about town 30 here, is there a limit to towns? i hope not, as that will mean I have 12 towns to many). -------------------- Play and rate my scenarios: Where the rivers meet View my upcoming scenario: The Nephil Search: Escape.

I want to use Alint for once and see how it works, but I can't get it to check something. This is caused by the simple explanation, that I have absolutely no idea how to use commandlines in DOS (or Mac OS X). Can somebody explain to me exactly how it should be done? -------------------- Play and rate my scenarios: Where the rivers meet View my upcoming scenario: The Nephil Search: Escape.

*mumbles irritatedly* hmpf. I know what to do about it, but it still is irritating. Actually, i chose the username "Thralni" only after I started with this scenario. its not that I made the scenario and thought "Oh, I need a bad guy! I'll choose me SW boards username as his name!", no, it was like this: "Hmmm... A SW boards username? hmmm... what to take... I got it! I'll use my favorite scenario's badguy name! Thralni!" I only have the feeling now, that I actually told much to much about thwta this scenario is about. *Mublus irritatedly* -------------------- Play and rate my scenarios: Where the rivers meet View my upcoming scenario: The Nephil Search: Escape.

I made this cutscene, which works fine, except for the ending. You are supposed to go to town 29, but it doesn't happen! What could have gone wrong? I'm sorry for the screen stretching, but I'm to lazy to remove overlong sentences. EDIT: Code remove because it wasn't necessary anymore.
