You could just send him a copy of the portion of the script where your dialogue goes. Micael - I haven't sent you anything in the past couple days due to lack of time, and because I'm waiting on your update. I don't want to fill in my bit of the dialogue script until I've played through with a couple of the bugs worked out. If you want it sooner I'll be more than happy to send it to you, so let me know.

I don't feel like doing this anymore, but here's a few minor errors I found in what I did play. Opening text 1. Misspelled Nephilim "Nephelim" 2. Misspelled whether "wether" Startin The Maze text 1. should say "Now THAT you have entered the maze," Taking Key text 1. should say "Now THAT you have the Key," Maze Contest Book text 1. Misspelled Nephilim again "Nephelim", 1st and 3rd paragraphs 2. Misspelled completing "completeing" 3. "waltz" WTF A waltz is a three step dance and looks really really dumb in this context. 4. two periods at end of first sentence of 3rd paragraph 5. "To pass through them, you normally have to" Have to what?

Just stick them into your portion of the script. ADoS, please just do your dialog as well, and then quit if you want to. I'll fix thpse bugs as soon as I havce time. I'm very pressed for it at the moment. - Archamgi Micael -------------------- "You dare Trifle with Avernum?" ~ Erika the Archmage -------------------- My Scenarios: Undead Valley : A small Undead problem, what could possibly go wrong? -------------------- Richard Black - PROOF of his existance (the Infernal one's website). -------------------- MY FORUM!

In the final town he has a character that is you (among other beta testers), and he wants each of us to fill in our opinions of the scenario as if the PC were talking to us. For the record I don't like doing that, but I sent it in anyway. Posts: 2032 | Registered: Wednesday, January 26 2005 08:00 |

Here's the Download place: http://hometown.aol.co.uk/Micael%20456/TheMazerelease/The+Maze+TESTING+THIS+IS+NOT+A+RELEASE+VERSION.zip If the link doesn' show just copy and paste it. Dolphin: Sorry if you didn't like the text stuff, but i wanted to see what was beter: Interactive Heroes, or Statues (UV). That way I can tell for KoV(shortened on purpose). ADoS, yeah there's only one line I think. - Archmagi Micael P.S. Thanks! I knew I could count on you lot.

I don't need to be credited for just those few spelling and grammatical errors. But there is something I could do. Although I don't want to search through all the script for displayed messages, if you want to send me a text dump, I'll proofread it for you. -------------------- My Myspace, with some of my audial and visual art The Lyceum - The Headquarters of the Blades designing community The Louvre - The Blades of Avernum graphics database Alexandria - The Blades of Exile Scenario database BoE Webring - Self explanatory Polaris - Free porn here Odd Todd - Fun for the unemployed (and everyone else too) They Might Be Giants - Four websites for one of the greatest bands in existance -------------------- 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 Posts: 2957 | Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00 |

Micael - Found a couple of things, so I'll just post them here… In mazefour: "statuete" should be spelled "statuette". Also, I would not have guessed the second riddle, so either it's too esoteric or I just didn't get it. In finish: The door to get back into the maze is unlocked, so the PC doesn't need to get the key.

I'm going to be going away for a few days so I'm going to test the latest version today. I probably won't be able to beta-test again until Thursday. -------------------- Do not underestimate the power of the mechanical pencil. Join the Dark side. We have cookies.

Micael - Sorry about the lack of reports. I haven't been testing very much, but I haven't had any problems either. Are others still testing for you? Posts: 2032 | Registered: Wednesday, January 26 2005 08:00 |

The last version posted just added a dialog so all the bugs I mentionned still needs correction when possible. I haven't found new ones yet except the one I mentionned to you some time ago. -------------------- /Seawinds are calling Posts: 187 | Registered: Thursday, August 14 2003 07:00 |

I've been trying (when I can) to find and fix those bugs, but they seem to re-appear every time they get fixed. Most of them are so superficial anyway, they're not worth the bother. - Archmagi Micael -------------------- "You dare Trifle with Avernum?" ~ Erika the Archmage -------------------- My Scenarios: Undead Valley : A small Undead problem, what could possibly go wrong? -------------------- Richard Black - PROOF of his existance (the Infernal one's website). -------------------- MY FORUM!
