I have gone through Alexandria and the rest of the web searching for those scenarios that are missing. There are many and I need your help. In order for Alexandria to be searchable, each scenario needs lots of information submitted with it. Please help me gather all the information needed for each of these scenarios and submit them to Alex. When you have submitted all the information for one post it and I will remove that scenario from the list. Together by doing one at a time, we can help bridge the gap to making Alexandria truly comprehensive. Even if you can just do one in a day it will help. If anyone has one of the scenarios that does not have a download site, please e-mail it to me I will forward it to Brett. Thank you all. Scenarios that Alex is missing and their download sites. I have reworked the list and put it in alphabetical order. I have included all the misc info I can find to make it easier for someone to submit one to Alex. I included any Descriptions I could find written by the author some paraphrased, and I know some of the e-mail addresses are different for the same person but I just included the e-mail I found with that scenario. I have no idea if any of these e-mails work.

It seems that all the download sites are not going to post correctly, but I have already forwarded the list to Brett, so go ahead and send all the information without the download site to him. -------------------- Forever Always on Past the End TrueSite for Blades - Blades Walkthroughs Pixle Profusion - BoE Graphics Archive Posts: 563 | Registered: Tuesday, July 27 2004 07:00 |

I'm not sure we should post utility scenarios or code examples on Alex. Right now, it contains playable scenarios.

Why not include them? If someone wants them where else are they going to look? Plus A Shopping Scenario, and Party Maker are already up at Alex. If we don't put them at Alex we should at least have them available all together somewhere else. -------------------- Forever Always on Past the End TrueSite for Blades - Blades Walkthroughs Pixle Profusion - BoE Graphics Archive Posts: 563 | Registered: Tuesday, July 27 2004 07:00 |

Or just have another field on the Alex search page that allows the user to choose whether to search for utility scenarios or not. Since they're out there, they mays well be on Alex. -------------------- -ben4808 Posts: 3360 | Registered: Friday, June 25 2004 07:00 |

A have a copy of Caer Selwyn, but it doesn't include graphics file, which are needed. Does anyone have it? If not, I'll go through the game and do some pics for it. Just wait a little before I send it. Posts: 253 | Registered: Tuesday, October 9 2001 07:00 |

I've the graphicless version of Caer Selwyn, too. It'd be nice to see how the scenario really should play out, though.. So yay for Luz. ^^ -------------------- The Great Mister kommari@gmail.com[/url] Posts: 103 | Registered: Sunday, August 15 2004 07:00 |

Actually, most scenarios listed on Alex are on SW servers. I just link to them. Now that I have more storage space, maybe I'll transfer them over to my space... -------------------- All that we see, or seem, is but a dream within a dream.

/me taps foot Well, now I know you all are looking at the list cause you're making conversation about it but I have yet to see anyone post that they've submitted any info to Alex. Come on people, don't make me and Brett do all the work. Get on you're duffs and play one of the scenarios on the list. Keep track of how long it takes you, how many towns/dungeons there are, and how many outdoor sections. The rest of the information needed can be found a bit faster, if not easier and I'd be willing to look up the rest if you'll just post those three things. Will it suck? Maybe. Is it an inconvience? Yes. Will it be worth it? Absolutely. Now just do it... Please. -------------------- Forever Always on Past the End TrueSite for Blades - Blades Walkthroughs Pixle Profusion - BoE Graphics Archive Posts: 563 | Registered: Tuesday, July 27 2004 07:00 |

Regarding Caer Selwyn, I emailed the author about that ages ago and he was kind enough to send me the graphics file. I can send it out when I get a chance, anyone besides Mab interested? -------------------- http://members.aol.com/risberg/blades/ Eternity approaches.

Drizzt, did R. Martin send you a finished EXS file too? I've crawled across the entire scenario, searching for pic descriptions and bugs, just to find the last (final?) dungeon is to be completed, and so the main quest. Which is a pity, because what's actually finished looks pretty good for a first effort. Posts: 253 | Registered: Tuesday, October 9 2001 07:00 |

I am working on putting all these scenarios into Alex. Any help you can give on scenario info is much appreciated. No way I can play all these to count towns, etc. Also, I may just copy the entire all the scenarios from SW and place them on my own site. THey currently come to about 50 MB. I recently acquired 500 MB of storage. That way, no more broken links as people move things, SW renames ZIP files, etc. -------------------- All that we see, or seem, is but a dream within a dream.

A fully independent site that stored the scenarios instead of just linking to them sounds like a really good idea. But what's going on with that idea about making these things designer-editable? I thought we were going to have a new database soon that would allow us to go in and update things directly instead of e-mailing and waiting. Er, and what do you want about NK0P? How long it takes, the number of towns, and the number of outdoor sections? As best I recall, it's something like an hour, 15, and 1. -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens.

Thank you, NK0P is taken care of. It might be a good idea for the person playing it to give a brief description too. I just copied what was up at Spiderweb for this one, but it'd be nice for those not there. PS. Hey Brett, I think I spelled his name wrong on the submission form. :( If you can take care of that before you post it, I'd be much obliged. -------------------- Forever Always on Past the End TrueSite for Blades - Blades Walkthroughs Pixle Profusion - BoE Graphics Archive Posts: 563 | Registered: Tuesday, July 27 2004 07:00 |

Regarding CS, no I don't believe he ever finished it. He told me that he sent the scenario to Spirderweb to unlock it - he'd forgotten the password, and they posted it (without the graphics file of course) instead. I encouraged him to finish it - as you said, it wasn't half-bad, and he said he would try. I didn't hear anything back from him, so it seems this is yet another unfinished work due to, in part at least, the actions of Spiderweb. Bummer. The version I have is last modified 1/17/2000 - I don't think he ever sent me an updated scenario, just the graphics. I haven't sent it yet - not forgotten, just have to get to it. -------------------- http://members.aol.com/risberg/blades/ Eternity approaches. Posts: 85 | Registered: Friday, October 5 2001 07:00 |
