I find this one extremely harder then Exile Editor, mainly because when I downloaded this editor, I had just recently learned how to make the whole shabang scenario's on Exile, anyone else feel this way? -------------------- Bandit: Hey Bob, why aren't we running after them? Archer Bob: Cuz if dose n00bz run dey got no gud ****. Bandit:oh Bob: And that isn't a cave, its a dragon... Posts: 59 | Registered: Saturday, October 15 2005 07:00 |

The editor isn't as versatile as MSPaint, but I've heard good things about the 3d version. Posts: 24 | Registered: Saturday, October 15 2005 07:00 |

Also, there is currently a project to make a vastly improved editor for BoA. It will still be harder than BoE, but far less so than it is now. -------------------- 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 |

http://sourceforge.net/projects/boaedremake/ Here's the 3D Editor if you want it. The versions available for download are officially beta versions, but they work just fine. -------------------- The Empire Always Loses: This Time For Sure! Posts: 9973 | Registered: Saturday, March 30 2002 08:00 |

Also useful are my links to various BoA resources. -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens.

I agree - the BoE scenario editor is much simpler and easier to use. That said, the BoA editor is much more powerful. -------------------- "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 know that there is more stuff you can do and much more detailed things but seriously guys, I'm not even thinking about doing a simple training scenario. I can't possibly figure out how to do dialouge and some of the stuff is just WAYYYYYYYYYY too complicated... -------------------- Bandit: Hey Bob, why aren't we running after them?

Read the manual (it really helps) and then just dive in and experiment. Also look at the scripts from the included scenarios. -------------------- "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!

In the folder with the appendix is a file called Blades of Avernum Editor Documentation. -------------------- "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!

In the newest version, it downloads as "BoA Editor Docs v1.2". It's in the editor folder. -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens. Smoo: Get ready to face the walls!

I started out with the BoA editor, and therefor don't know the BoE editor, so I can shut up or say that you people shouldn't start crying because you can't manage to learn it. EVEN I managed to understand it (after a month or so). -------------------- Play and rate my scenarios: Where the rivers meet View my upcoming scenario: The Nephil Search: Escape. Give us your drek!

ehh... it took me a few months to learn BoE... I'm not good at learning new things... EDIT: Well I finally know how to make a dungeon... not much new... but more complicated... Editor sometimes puts things where I don't want them to, but nothing that can't be easily fixed... Still don't know how to make dialog. From what I think its like coding a game... lemme rephrase that, its like coding a flash game, without using flash editor...
