  1. Awesome; thanks. I thought it would, but you never know haha
  2. I own the Geneforge Saga, and am planning on eventually getting the Avernum games. I'm currently running 64 bit Vista, but my computer came with an upgrade to 64 bit windows 7. I'm planning on upgrading around christmas time, so I have plenty of time to get things sorted out between semesters. One of the things I was wondering about, though, was compatibility with spiderweb games. I know one of windows 7's goals was compatibility with everything Vista could run, but has anyone tested out the games on 7?
  3. True; Lamarckian evolution could perfectly easily apply to Exile, especially in something like, say, slimes which were created by magic. It'd be kinda cool, actually. And I probably should have expanded the quote a bit to include that; not quite sure why I cropped it out, but it was the source of most of the issue (with that nagging in the side about the Lamarckian-seeming idea of evolution, instead of it being that darker pigmentation is more fit to survive in some regions and is passed on more readily when it pops up by chance). I don't believe he meant it to be racist either, by the context, but its still not a great word to toss around. I kinda phrased my previous comment badly; by racism, I meant the connotations more than any conscious effort on the part of the OP.
  4. Just a question. I read the original post, and part of it (the section talking about backstory for the orcs) struck me as pretty offensive: (mostly the racism, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't cringe at the grasp of genetics) "theyre black because they live in specific area, where sun makes their skin tanned, and change their dna to be black..." I would advise (honest advice; I don't mean to sound anal about this, but I felt someone should say something, even if as a complete newb to these forums I dont have a lot of room to talk about how to do things) you to avoid comments like that, both in forums and in the scenario you're making, because you risk turning a lot of people off from the game. Thats my two cents at least.
