Question: WTF is Icon Adjustment? in Blades of Avernum
Daravon Warrior Member # 720	written Monday, April 26 2004 16:54 Profile #3 .. everything he said was completely relevent.. what are you talking about? -------------------- -Daravon Posts: 104 \| Registered: Friday, March 8 2002 08:00
Article - Building Blocks in Blades of Avernum Editor
Daravon Warrior Member # 720	written Monday, April 26 2004 16:47 Profile #4 One thing that I have noticed is that "dungeons" may have little to no fights at all and may be intended to drive the story. For instance, a room in the dungeon may contain several tomes which explain in unabridged detail what the heck is going on, something that would be wholly unrealistic coming from dialogue. Secondly, the dungeon may be critical to the story and not just "the bad guy's fortress".

Your regular msg. from your resident annoying newb in Blades of Avernum
Daravon Warrior Member # 720	written Monday, April 26 2004 03:24 Profile #3 A little outdated, isn't it? They might not make an Avernum II and III! Oh the horrors! -------------------- -Daravon Posts: 104 \| Registered: Friday, March 8 2002 08:00
Experience!1 in Blades of Avernum
Daravon Warrior Member # 720	written Monday, April 26 2004 03:22 Profile #6 It sort of makes sense. I mean, once you know how to do something, you can only get so much out of it before it stops being an educational experience. How many times can you slaughter that skeleton or that goblin before you've mastered each's weakpoints, eh? -------------------- -Daravon Posts: 104 \| Registered: Friday, March 8 2002 08:00

Daravon Warrior Member # 720	written Monday, April 26 2004 03:19 Profile #4 Besides, the scenarios that come with BoA aren't meant to be as expansive as the original Avernum games. They are only meant to exhibition that which it is capable of doing (DWtD, especially). -------------------- -Daravon Posts: 104 \| Registered: Friday, March 8 2002 08:00

Daravon Warrior Member # 720	written Sunday, April 25 2004 18:12 Profile #64 quote: Originally written by spyderbytes: As long as we're dreaming here... :) I'd like to have a call that re-inits all floors/terrains to their default state (as set in the editor). I just made a town with a dam, and it's MUCH different depending on whether the floodgates are opened or closed (about 3 dozen squares change--coulda been much worse, I guess, if I hadn't planned so carefully ;) ). Going through all those squares and saying what they change to when the puzzle is solved was a pain, but understandably necessary. Going BACK through and saying, essentially, "now put it all back like it was when the party entered", in case they decide to undo what they did, seemed like more work than was really required. :) You could trying making some custom terrains/floors which you can just flip en masse when you need to. i dunno, would that work? -------------------- -Daravon Posts: 104 \| Registered: Friday, March 8 2002 08:00

Daravon Warrior Member # 720	written Tuesday, April 20 2004 08:01 Profile #0 Has anyone noticed that on about half of the road terrains, when the party steps on them, they produce the crunch sound instead of the normal alternating stepping sound?

You dont have to read this Because It's just me being an Idiot in Blades of Avernum
Daravon Warrior Member # 720	written Sunday, April 18 2004 19:49 Profile #47 Ah yes, but in the rare instances inwhich one would want to pluralize individual letters, you would put quotes around the letter to signify that it is indeed an object being discussed (as opposed to, say, just an ordinary letter). For instance: "a"s or "i"s. Yes, it looks strange, but then, we don't need to do it very often now do we? Similarly, one could use 'single quotes' for this situation, but they would probably only confuse everyone more than they are already regarding those apostrophes... And, let us assume shall we, that we would never need to express these letters as being possesive, nevermind gasp possesive-plural. :D [ Sunday, April 18, 2004 19:50: Message edited by: Daravon ] -------------------- -Daravon Posts: 104 \| Registered: Friday, March 8 2002 08:00

Daravon Warrior Member # 720	written Sunday, April 18 2004 09:26 Profile #42 "'s" conveys two things: first, it can convey ownership. ("That is Bob's copy of the game.") It is also for use in contractions of one word (a noun or pronoun) and the word "is". ("It's his turn.") Acronyms are considered to be a noun, so.. if you're mearly pluralizing it, there is no need for an apostrophe. ("There are many RPGs.") If you are conveying that something is owned by the acronym, than you would use an apostrophe before the "s". ("This RPG's story is hard to comprehend.") However, if your noun is both plural (that is to say, if it already ends in 's') AND it is owning something, than you would use "s'". ("These RPGs' battles are difficult to overcome.") The one exception to this last rule is with the word "it". "It's" always means "It is". It NEVER conveys ownership. To convey ownership, use "Its" (no apostrophe anywhere). Wrap up: "It's Bob's turn." -------------------- -Daravon Posts: 104 \| Registered: Friday, March 8 2002 08:00
