Spears Clash! Of Uncombined Items? in Blades of Exile

Thanks, I just found out that Programmers Notepad can work with the files (though I now kinda wish I hadn't adjusted the C/C++ format to fit with Avernumscript). Speaking of Avernumscript, this doesn't actually look that bad. They have a lot of similarities...

And thanks for the tip about the weapon poison. Once the broadsword was taken out of the picture, the arrows became poisoned. It really makes archery worth the expense.

As for RAM, I'm in no hurry to sink more money into this computer. It's old, unstable, and I'm building another one that far outstrips this machine.

Oh, now it makes sense. Mrrol wields a broadsword as well as a bow. I'll try it without the sword.

AMEND: There goes the idea of trying the source code. I'm sure I could stretch my computer's 128 MB of RAM far enough, but there's no way in heck I'm going to be able to get a 299 MHz P2 processor to run a program who's minimum requirement is 600 MHz. I already have a game that requires 350 MHz, and that runs fairly crappy as it is. 600 MHz? Not a chance.

If I remember right, it worked with the demo version of BoE. But it says right in the description that poisoned arrows are powerful weapons...

Maybe I'll take a crack at the source code sometime, and see if I can re-implement that feature.

That's presumably because you're still running towards the demon. :P

My Tyranicus death-count guess was 6. Though since he presumably died twice this chapter and was reported to die 4 more times previously (but after Episode 3), that wasn't too bad.

P.S.: Afterwards, not Afterwords.

Yeah, I just noticed that Weapon Poison doesn't work on arrows anymore either. It's nice to know it isn't just me.

That said, does anyone know when the character editor will get ported? Because I found the rare books and, thinking they were just valuable books, sold them, as I also sold most of the rubies. Actually, I think I'll have to start over, because I've sold a lot of things that I'm now finding out I needed. Like Naga Blood and Vampire Fangs.

Thanks, Miramor and Redstart!

I'm playing Spears now, and I'm wondering: is it normal for pretty much every potion and scroll you pick up not to combine with other potions and scrolls of the same type?

Also, does anybody know where one can find a Dispel Barrier spell in this thing? I'm running out of Piercing Crystals and Scrolls, and the barriers keep popping back up.

If you're using Firefox 2, you can just right-click on the image (if you can stand getting your cursor near it :P ) and select 'block images from [insert site here]' from the drop-down menu that appears. That's what I did, anyway.

EDIT: It's amazing the typos you can create when you're holding a squirming cat.

AMMEND: So how 'bout it for popularity, Dikiyoba? You post one chapter, and the thread's already almost to page 2!

If some of the action is taking place at Shadow Vale, you may want to include Enalya.

For future reference, Not in your Shed, the board whose creation is attributed to Muffin, was not created by our resident pastry, but by a Roost member. It is in no way a satellite forum nor is it related to Spiderweb. Thus, you can definitely leave it off.

EDIT: Odd. Dikiyoba's post wasn't visible a minute ago...

Yes, the Shade will do a lot of things. Thankfully, Augustus isn't a crucial part of the main storyline, and thus, you can continue the game without him.

Make sure to talk to everyone and to ask about the Beast and the Captain. Once you've done that, you should get a message about feeling tired. Lie down on your sleeping pad and let the fireworks begin.

In the darkness, there is light. In the light, there is hope. And in hope, we shall remain comforted, knowing that good shall triumph over evil, and that all unjust shall reap their dues. And when no hope remains, we shall still be comforted, for in darkness, there is always light.
- Perian, Monk of the Brotherhood of Light.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Avin slowly sat up. He had no idea where he was, or how much time had passed. All he knew was that he was in some sort of dark room. He wondered if this was the afterlife. He had always been curious about it, but did not desire to end up here so soon. The walls were dark, with a small torch providing just enough light to see. He was sitting on the ground, which was made of earth. It was also completely lifeless; no grass or foliage of any kind adorned the ground. Just the occasional rock to break the monotony. A small bed was pressed against the opposing wall, and a table to his left held a few meager supplies. Avin attempted to stand, only to fall back to the ground in pain. The wounds he had received were still present, though they had healed considerably. He started doubting that he was in the afterlife. But that posed the question: where was he? It certainly wasn’t Kirwood… was it?

As he pondered his surroundings, a previously unnoticed door opened, and someone stepped through. His heart sank at the sight of the visitor; it was the white-haired woman, the same one whom he had fought with days earlier in Kirwood. She wordlessly brought in a pail of water and dropped it near him, then sat down on the bed and watched him carefully. He looked hesitantly at the water; he wanted to drink it, but didn’t trust the woman’s intentions. At that moment, the woman finally spoke with a cold, calculated demeanor. "It’s not poisoned. If I wanted to kill you, I wouldn’t have brought you here." Avin was still mistrustful, but it made more sense than pretty much anything else about his predicament. He took a few sips of the water, then returned his attention to her and asked, "Where is here?"

The woman seemed to debate whether or not to give him an answer. Eventually, she answered, "A city in Trantite. What’s left of it, anyway."

"It was destroyed?" Avin asked, somewhat aghast and yet too weary to really care. The woman nodded, but didn’t make a verbal reply. Avin decided to press for more answers. "Why are you trying to keep me alive now? I thought you wanted me dead."

The woman again seemed to debate with herself. This time, she erred on the side of caution. "Perhaps I’ll tell you. But not now. I have something else to do. In the meantime, I suggest you rest. You’re only just alive, and if you don’t want that to change for the worst, you’ll need to conserve your energy." With that, the woman left the hut. Avin slumped back onto the ground. He briefly wondered if his tribe was all right, but he could tell that expending himself much could cost him dearly. He stared up at the roof, thoroughly confused. It was like the whole world was slowly going insane.

That's not limited to XBox. Almost every game console has had at least one game where you could do that, usually several. And comparing one console to another from the same generation, in my opinion, is like comparing apples to more apples. They all do the same thing, and have extremely similar methods of getting there, excluding Wii.

Who here is in favor of creating a single thread in which ALL milestone post counts are celebrated, rather than multiple topics around the same premise.

Except that, according to Nethergate and Nethergate: Resurrection, the magical creatures fled to thousands of places and times, not just one centralized location. Though I do suppose that it explains Loch Ness.

Oops. My mistake. I thought you meant it in context to real life. And, to be honest, I'm not sure 'spammy nature' applies too much anymore.

Also, you forgot Smite.

Thralni: Wha...? What is "new != real" supposed to mean? Doesn't that confirm the very first name for the Senarti?
