D'oh. There are very noticable terrain differences between towns 0 and 4, though, if you check in BoE. No matter. I think I can demolish a building, so I don't have to choke you over it.

Meh. Generally, if I'm yelling at someone for fongchongery, I sometimes just decide to take the time out to rate them an evil priest while I'm at it. Posts: 3234 | Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00 |

I've never had ratings enabled. I've given 20 1-star ratings, 1 2-star rating, 1 4-star rating, and 13 5-star ratings, over my entire career. My other accounts have given 0 ratings. It wouldn't be fair. Posts: 3234 | Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00 |

dampeoples - Because it was previously for sale - if a company chooses to no longer support or sell a product, it's typically considered "abandonware" and the company typically looks the other way at it being distributed for free. Posts: 3234 | Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00 |

I'd assume so. It is part of the editor, after all. Posts: 3234 | Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00 |

Bragging rights...? Like "Look at me, I was stupid enough to waste a decent-sized portion of my life on rewriting Avernum 3 for Blades of Avernum and watching as 90% of people just played A3 instead!"? Posts: 3234 | Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00 |

Everyone knows that the porter from BoE to BoA is pretty bad, because of all the work you'll have to do afterwards. However, I found two errors which are not system quirks, but rather bonafide errors in the porter. 1) SDF checks that include "if less than (a non-negative-one number), go to -1" are not ported correctly. This is a very valid node in BoE, and it corresponds to "if less than (number), break" in BoA -- and it should be ported that way, rather than completely ignoring that part of the check. 2) Two towns with the same name (and same size?) cause the porter to flip out and create two copies of the first town instead, overwriting the second. THIS is a rather glaring error, and one which is causing a darn good bit of extra work. Posts: 3234 | Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00 |
