Book or Movie? in General
Dintiradan Guardian Member # 6670	written Saturday, October 13 2007 17:15 Profile Homepage #26 By Thuryl: quote: The movie isn't always better than the book; sometimes, it's the reverse. Who even remembers that Jurassic Park was originally a book? (2001: A Space Odyssey is another example, but it was written specifically with the intent of making it into a movie, so it doesn't really count.) Speaking of which, was Michael Crichton involved in writing the screenplay for Lost World? I know he was for Jurassic Park as well as the third one if I remember correctly. Actually, Jurassic Park is my favourite example for book versus movie discussions. The book was too cerebral for long stretches for a movie, and it had too much violence and coarse language to be a 14A movie. The movie had too much mindless action and flat characters for a book. The author was involved with the movie transition, and he used the best things for each medium. Although I bemoan the absence of rocket launchers in the movie. -------------------- Tom Bombadil for the win! Posts: 1509 \| Registered: Tuesday, January 10 2006 08:00

Episode 4: Spiderweb Reloaded. Something like that anyway. in General
Dintiradan Guardian Member # 6670	written Wednesday, October 10 2007 19:44 Profile Homepage #210 quote: "No. We must work at night and act normal during the day." The Lurker yawned. "How can we act normally if we're going to be incredibly tired all the time?" "Bah! We won't be up all night long, just a few hours. And if anyone gets suspicious, we'll just say it's finals week and you're helping me study." Timely. I just spent Thanksgiving weekend rooming with someone who constantly complained about not getting ten hours of sleep a night. I called aforementioned roommate a wimp, seeing that I spent several nights last week up past three. Youpi for the sleeping commute! -------------------- (Oh, and we ran over the same skunk three times. But that's a different story.) Posts: 1509 \| Registered: Tuesday, January 10 2006 08:00

NPC Script Question in Blades of Avernum Editor
Dintiradan Guardian Member # 6670	written Tuesday, October 2 2007 10:34 Profile Homepage #6 One technique I thought up a while ago was to alter basicnpc.txt itself. Wrap the default behaviour in an else, and then add your own scripting in ifs that test for the desired condition. For instance, before the default else, test to see if the creature's number is X, where X is the creature number for Hank the Hireling. I have yet to get around to implementing it, though. -------------------- I wouldn't shake his hand if I were you. I hear he licks his thumb. Posts: 1509 \| Registered: Tuesday, January 10 2006 08:00

Man or God in General
Dintiradan Guardian Member # 6670	written Tuesday, September 25 2007 15:18 Profile Homepage #183 By Micawber: quote: And remind me again, what precisely does this thread have to do with Spiderweb Software and its games? To build on what Synergy said, the entire point of General is to keep the forumers around. The purpose of the board as a whole is helping people out with the games (and thus decrease the workload on Jeff Vogel), but that hardly keeps people coming back day after day. General does, and thus are we fiendishly bound to this board. And I'd like to add that just because not everyone posts in this thread doesn't mean it isn't read. I don't have the time, much less the skill, to jump into most online debates, but that doesn't mean I don't try to keep somewhat up to date on them. Meh. The post would have been better if I had the time to post it at noon. -------------------- Just open both doors. Hopefully the Tiger goes for the Lady.
