I don't know how you can get Move Mountains lvl 3, but there's walktroughs to all dungeons on http://rachea3.tripod.com/. That should be able to help you get MM lvl3, 'cause it says where you can get all the spells in the Towns/Dungeons. I hope that helps, Swooper.

the error is demonin error: Overlong or unending string in line 145. Thats the error.

Umm.............I still have problems with the text . Help?? Please? Somebody?

Thanks, it has worked out now, that little piece,but now I have the rest of the text. Code: beginstate 15; message_dialog("Wiley's Poems, Volume 6.

Quote: Well, I think that message_dialog has two parameters, you should leave the second one as "" if you are not going to add a second string. In addition you are forgetting the quotes (") at the end of the last two states. Hope that helps. I do not understand. Where does the message_dialog have two parameters, and where do I forget the quotes? Please tell me the locations of these things you have mentioned.

Something does not work. I have made booktext, but when I start the scenario, the error is something like this: Unknown command in line 120. What does thet mean? Code: beginstate 10; message_dialog("Grevi's history I - We, the Grevi, has excisted as many years as the oldest demonlords. In our lands we have been waiting and waiting for the demonlords to let us leave the lands of our home, to trouble the humans.");beginstate 11; message_dialog("History on Grevi I - We Grevi are an ancient demonkind, that has excisted as long as the oldest of our Great Leaders.");beginstate 12; message_dialog("History on Grevi II - We are growing weak, because nobody knows that we excists. We are the strongest of demonkind, but we are not thought of.");beginstate 13; message_dialog("Grevi's History II - All the time we have asked our leaders, all the time they say no. Yet, they have said our time will come. We hope that time will come soon."Now you know why no one ever knew anything about them.);beginstate 14; message_dialog("History on Grevi III - The Haakais always look down on us, as if we are weaker than them, and the Imps, Demons and Mung Demons, always laugh at us. But we will show them! One day, we Grevi will rule in our lands! And then we will laugh at them!"So, the demons are very much like humans. At least in humor, and temperament.);

When I made the beginning of the scenario with this 3D editor, and then tested it, the door graphics ddn't work! It was just a strange thing being there. It was still doors, but they didn't look like doors. Has that happened to anyone else?

If we're taking up such foolish things as Goblin and Dragon PCs, then why don't we just create Golem Pcs? I do not want that, what I want as PCs is...umm... nothing actually. Who would want undead PCs, slime PCs, animal PCs, demon PCs, troglodyte PCs, nephar PCs, lizard (fire, normal, ice, mutant, snakes) PCs, gazers, eyebeasts, black shade, or guardian PCs, giant PCs, or even Gremlin PCs? I will perhaps find something I would like as a PC, but not now. For now I like the PCs you are. Thats enough, you don't have to be a nonhuman. If you want, you can be anything of what I said. Sure, it might be fun to be a new race, Ithink so too. But I don't think that anybody will be able to play as any other race then Human, Nephilim, and Slitherikai.

Yeah, I've noticed that it has moved to the right. But I don't know what WTF is, so what does THAT mean?

Either I'd live in the Keep of Tinraya with the Alien Beasts and sometimes go out with a few of them, and buy food and bring some more persons to the quarantine lands (I don't remember the name of the place) and populate it with both Alien Beasts and humans, or on the Isle of Bigail, with the GIFTS, and I would make all the humans on the island go away, so the GIFTS could live in the towns and be happy, instead of living in dark caves and be sad.

I checked out this "Town Details" in the Editor, and I saw that it was a misspelling. I had written an D instead of an t, and I think I have to shorten the text also. Now its working, so I say thanks! Many thanks to you all! Most thanks to GIFTSare2d2!

Please give me your email adress, or else I cannot send the scripts to you. And I do not know if it is an error or not, because I just began with scripting.

When I started on my test scenario, I duplicated the Warrior's Grove dialogue file, but I changed the text a bit here and there. But when I started it, it didn't load up, it just said: Error: You tried to start dialogue when no dialogue script is loaded. How do I make it work? Somebody who can explain to me?
