Secnario idea. in Blades of Exile

There was an early BoE scenario called "The Wreck of the Slug". It was pretty much as you describe; large, many quests, no overarching plot. While this scenario was well-received at the time it was originally released, it's not very popular among modern players.

Actually, he is saying he prefers Mac over Windows. He's just not saying he thinks it's necessarily better for everyone. :P

No, it's quite some distance beyond the end of the demo.

EDIT: Well, damn. Um, I'm trying to think of something further to say so that my post isn't made useless by the one above it, but I'm drawing a blank. Sorry.

I'll be spending most of tomorrow slaving over a hot microtome, so if I make it to the chat at all I'll probably be late. Please accept my apologies.

Hmm. Try transferring the file to a DOS-formatted floppy instead of a Mac-formatted one?

Yeah, it has to have just .cmg as the extension. The Finder will probably complain if you try to remove the .rsrc extension, but ignore it and do so anyway.

You mentioned G500.bmp

Is this the problem?

I took her post to imply that she'd tried using several different sheet numbers.

I also have to wonder how you expect longer prison sentences for drug offences to actually help anyone with a drug problem, since a jail is about the easiest place in the world to get your hands on illegal drugs.

BoA Save Files in Tech Support

And BoA certainly didn't "eliminate" your old save files -- it just doesn't do that. If you remember what the files were called, search for them by name on your hard disk. Unless you've deleted them yourself (or someone else using your computer has done so), they'll still be where you originally saved them. (Possibly in My Documents or somewhere.)

Now that you mention it, there might be a maximum file size on images. Try to reduce it as best you can, I suppose.

Liposuction can't safely take off more than a few kilograms at a time. Even then, it's a risky procedure.

One way to reduce file size is to reduce the colour depth to 8-bit. This will give you a very significant improvement in file size, but may make the colours look a little funny. Try it and see how it works.

Don't worry too much if the image ends up big, though. It'll compress down fairly well, so it certainly won't add 530 kB to the actual download size of the scenario.

Auto-hills does save a lot of time for making ordinary hills. It's just really bad if you have any cliffs at all nearby.

Outdoors, you can use potions to haste yourself before combat. This may be a bug, but I don't care.

And if you're attacked by surprise, well, that's what reloading is for.

Or just have a reasonably talented mage cast Haste on everyone twice, and they'll be faster than anything they're likely to run into anyway. :P
