It's "affect" there, since it's a verb. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy desperance.net - We're Everywhere ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

It wouldn't permanently destroy it unless they save over the file. But the way to do what you want is to include a save file of a party you've made with the correct stats. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

Actually, there is a way to check. There's no way to really stop someone from cheating once they enter the scenario, but you can strip the party of items, check the level of the party, check the number of people in the party, etc. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

I'll put your terrain and the punk graphic up now, but I'd rather not have extraneous links in case something happens. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

I don't have that on me, though. It's probably on TM's site. ADoS, the reason I'm not posting items is because I have a limited amount of space, item graphics are easy to make, and they aren't as essential to a scenario as monsters and terrain. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

I will host BoA monsters, PCs, and terrain, but not items. The graphics must be in GIF format and should be sent to drakey@sitemouse.com EDIT: If you simply can't convert them to a gif, let me know in the email and I'll do it.

There doesn't appear to be anything posted. Also, BoA won't come out for eight-twelve months at the least. Finally, custom terrain and custom monsters are much more valuable than custom items. If you finish your item work, I encourage you to work on that too. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

Jeff has said that he wants the player to bring in any party they want to. That means no customized races, no set amounts of skill points, etc. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

I would, but I only have 3MB, and one is already taken up.

Magery affects priests in the same way it affects mages. Also, unarmed combat can be improved with strength. Without cheating, I've done 250 damage in unarmed combat. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

quote:This was done in Geneforge, IIRC. It worked in most cases, but it saved my 2 HP Shaper many, many times. Just before my Shaper is about to die, a fyora breathes on the monster, and it chases the fyora instead of the Shaper. Also, if you remove Barter, you should allow the scenario designer to choose the cost % for NPCs buying items. Someone in a Pawn Shop might give back 60%, while someone that sells weapons too may only give 30% back. When I say giving back, I mean that if the party sells a 1000 gold item, the first NPC will pay 600 for it, and the second will pay 300. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

I agree that, if you're adding new skills, a marksmanship ability (high bows, assassination) would be a good idea, since missile weapons are very underpowered in Avernum 3. For spells, I'd like to see something like paralysis or web, like Bind Foe, rather than Forcecage. Also, I'd like another field spell, with either ice or magic damage. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

No, this is much faster than it has ever been. We have 28 scenarios in this contest, with more that couldn't be finished in time. Only at the very beginning of scenario design have more scenarios been produced in a year. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!
