I guess it's possible that someone is falsifying their email address to look like yours, but as far as I know the more common problem is a Trojan Horse or worm of some kind infecting the user's computer. Also try changing your email address's password. I'm sure you know this, but just in case. -------------------- My Myspace, with some of my art The L y ceum - The Headquarters of the Blades designing community The Louvre - The Blades of Avernum graphics database BoE Webring - Self explanatory They Might Be Giants - Four official websites for one of the greatest bands in existence Posts: 2957 \| Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00

They had problems with someone hijacking their mailing list for nefarious purposes once, so they abandoned the automated system in favor of a more secure human-based system, IIRC. So it takes longer, but it's safer, and it's more personal if any problems arise.

BRAND SPANKIN' NEW BLADES OF EXILE SCENARIO RELEASED! HOORAY! GO ADOS! GO ADOS! WOOO! in Blades of Exile
The Almighty Doer of Stuff Shaper Member # 73	written Sunday, February 17 2008 07:21 Profile #2 1.1.0 released. My betatester had pointed out these aesthetic issues, but in my excitement over finishing all the nodework I forgot to fix them. EDIT: By the way, if someone could make a MEG file for this scenario, that'd be great. EDIT2: Nevermind, TM made the MEG and sent it to me. New ZIP has been uploaded with the SIT-compressed MEG file and a readme. I'll upload this, "The Scenario", and a bunch of graphics to the Blades Forge when Aran fixes it.

The Almighty Doer of Stuff Shaper Member # 73	written Sunday, February 10 2008 08:57 Profile #7 While we're requesting music identification, I salvaged a WMA file from my old eMachines T2542 computer before the power supply crapped out and fried the motherboard. It's a piece electronic ambient music that played during the setup of a fresh installation of Windows XP from the discs that came with the computer, and I really like it. I doubt eMachines, a maker of budget computers, would commission a new work of such high quality for something so silly, so I figure they must have licensed an existing work from someone. It's 5:24 long, with a calming mood. It begins with four eight-beat chords with no other instruments which are then repeated with additional instruments that sound something like tape snaps and a sharp inhalation of breath, and then other instruments come in as well. It has about five seconds of a low-pitch choir starting at about 3:49. Does anyone know the name of the artist and/or the name of the track? -------------------- My Myspace, with some of my art The L y ceum - The Headquarters of the Blades designing community The Louvre - The Blades of Avernum graphics database BoE Webring - Self explanatory They Might Be Giants - Four official websites for one of the greatest bands in existence Posts: 2957 \| Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00

The Almighty Doer of Stuff Shaper Member # 73	written Saturday, February 9 2008 18:35 Profile #4 I like the second movement, personally. "My name is Jane! I am seven years old! Black hair and red eyes! I have no nose, or ears. I am dead! If you do not send this to fifteen people in the next - five minutes I will apPEEEEEAR! tonight by your bed with a knife, and kill you!" The singer sings it in such a cheery manner, which makes it particularly funny. "This is no joke! Something good will happen to you tonight at 9:22!" "This is not a joke! Someone will either call you, or talk to you online and say they love you! Do not break! No send-back!" I've never actually listened to the third and fourth movements too closely, but I should. -------------------- My Myspace, with some of my art The L y ceum - The Headquarters of the Blades designing community The Louvre - The Blades of Avernum graphics database BoE Webring - Self explanatory They Might Be Giants - Four official websites for one of the greatest bands in existence Posts: 2957 \| Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00

Technical Issue in Blades of Exile

Node chain won't work in Blades of Exile
The Almighty Doer of Stuff Shaper Member # 73	written Friday, January 25 2008 13:42 Profile #6 Finally got around to this. I added a message to the lock rectangle node, another to the transform rectangle node that changes the terrain to conveyor belts, and another to the transform rectangle node that changes the terrain back, and tested it. I found that they were changed and changed back in the same round, which is odd since I put in the General Timer telling it to go off one round after it was called. I set it to 2 instead of 1, and now it works. Thanks to everyone who helped.

Can't install custom scenarios in Blades of Exile
The Almighty Doer of Stuff Shaper Member # 73	written Thursday, January 24 2008 06:21 Profile #7 I just found an older version of Ormus's BoE (sans editors) on my flash drive that worked better with regard to custom scenarios being recognized. I don't know what the functional differences between that version and the newer one are, aside from custom scenarios working in this one. I'll look through the thread about his port and post here again. EDIT: Okay, it seems the only real difference between this older version and the current one is that Ormus rearranged the file structure. This was done to make development easier, if I understood correctly, but it also broke custom scenarios. I just have the program, and not the source, unfortunately. At any rate, it should run well enough on XP and Vista. I don't know what to do with it though, now that I have it. Should I upload it somewhere (it's a 2.67MB ZIP), or are there licensing issues due to this version being released under the Common Public License rather than GNU GPL v2?
