Changing the sound file is different from creating a file that can be included with scenarios that merely augments the existing sound file.

That generally means that you're trying to run a program that requires a PowerMac or a higher OS on an insufficient system.

Most people use custom characters for everything.

When I use a four-PC party (which isn't often), I'll have two fighters (both with a little priest skill) a mage with a little priest skill, and a priest with a little mage skill.

Yeah, I scribbled solutions to puzzles in RiB and promptly forgot how to read them. Eventually, though, I remembered.

Change basicnpc all you want - it's the default script for all monsters in the scenario you're writing - there's nothing sacred about it.

Not everything has to be so tightly knit, but it's just that people have a much harder time making a loosely-tied game that's actually fun to play.

All we have is a lot of general inconsistencies.

I disagree with point one, mainly because 855 is an arbitrary date. I'd be more inclined to go with 843, since BoE VoDT was 10 years after Exile III.

If both computers have Ethernet, you can buy a crossover cable for about $15.

I use a paper notebook for ideas and things like that. For SDFs, I don't keep track of them at all.

Grakh doesn't have to be a human - it's possible that he's an intelligent goblin or something of that sort.

If you discount Erika's text, then is there anything that you would keep? You have to go with what's in the games, even if the dates are wrong. Which is why we standardize them, just to make them make sense. If the text is copied from Exile, it means that Jeff obviously still agrees with it, and I don't really see the problem with it.

It seems to me like you're just being contrary for the sake of being contrary.

That was Rosy as Nye. And not doing a good job of it at all.

There used to be a lot more crossovers from Desp and Polaris - Morgan, Alorael, Omlette, and others were at both.

If anything, desperance was a satellite of the Arena rather than spidweb.

I asked for it during beta too :P

But turning them off is the best alternate solution.

I think that another factor that goes into my ratings is the 'replay' factor. Scenarios like An Apology, Requelle's Nightmare, Nephil's Gambit, etc. are scenarios that I wouldn't mind replaying or would want to, not just because they have alternate endings (most don't), but because they're fun and gripping.

It's mental/magical resistance. Intelligence, hardiness, and Strong Will all help.
