  1. Some of the pixels probably aren't perfectly white. The game treats white, and only white, as a transparent colour for creature and item graphics.
  2. Did you make sure to save it as an 8-bit (256-colour) bitmap? I don't think the Exile games are designed to deal with different colour depths.
  3. If you kill both Alwan and Miranda in Northforge Warrens, you actually get to skip the final battle in Northforge entirely, although if you're capable of doing that the final battle wouldn't have been a problem for you anyway.
  4. I didn't get that impression. What makes you think so? Generally, if people think that anyone in G4 is the G3 protagonist, they think it's Shaper Monarch.
  5. The next most difficult optional fight in the game is probably Matala, although you can reach that a bit before the endgame. Another challenge you could try to take on if you're on the Rebel path is clearing out Alwan's assault group when you first encounter them in Northforge Warrens, instead of scouting the area and retreating as the game tells you to do.
  6. It might do the check after you leave the crafting dialogue. That seems plausible.
  7. The option is in the "Add a Game" button in the bottom left corner of the Steam application.
  8. I want to say it's +4 levels of damage, but I might be pulling that out of nowhere.
  9. It could be a DNS issue. If you know how to do so, try changing your settings to use Google Public DNS (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) and see if that helps.
  10. Have you emailed Spiderweb about it? They can help you better than we can.
  11. Yup. A common standard for mobile interfaces is that you tap for a left-click and hold for a right-click.
  12. There are various implications throughout the series that demons come from another dimension reachable through summoning magic or portals (although actually going through a portal to their realm would be a pretty bad idea). It'd be reasonable to speculate that many if not most of the demons in Avernum were probably summoned by the sliths under Sss-Thsss and his predecessors.
  13. I believe there was an unofficial third-party script edit designed to make items on the ground more visible by changing their appearance. Might that be what you're thinking of?
  14. For what it's worth, the strategy-guide-writing side of the forums has always had a high opinion of it, although the advice is usually to put it on a spellcaster since fighters don't have to go out of their way to meet the skill requirements for disciplines even without the blade.
  15. Is there a transcript or written summary somewhere?
  16. In that case, the best thing you can do is send a bug report to support@spiderwebsoftware.com and see if SW can help you.
  17. I think if you join the Anama it's specified that their rings are deliberately made non-removable so that members have to make a commitment to living as Anama. I guess the fake rings need to have some of the same enchantments in order to fool magical means of detection.
  18. Yeah, the standard way for recent Spiderweb games to handle targets that are absolutely not supposed to die is that their health gets locked at 1 and won't go any lower than that, no matter how much damage you do.
  19. Email your bug report to support@spiderwebsoftware.com if you want to make sure that the developer sees it. You might be asked for further information to narrow down the source of the bug, since I don't think this is an issue that's been reported before.
  20. You don't have to kill him in G3, depending on what route you're playing on. It's true that the events leading up to a game don't line up perfectly with any one particular route from the previous game, though. It's not going to happen; Jeff's said he leaves that kind of thing up to the player on purpose.
  21. They're just there to blow you up. But you have to admit, they're pretty good at doing that.
  22. If Humble gave you a Steam key, the Steam version should auto-update. If you got a direct download link, you'll have to redownload it the same way you originally did.
  23. i dunno, let's say ziggurats i guess
  24. Roller skates The Hubble Space Telescope Elephants Robert Falcon Scott (as in "of the Antarctic") Pyramids
  25. i have no recollection of making that post so i cannot explain my reasoning at the time revised opinion 13 years later: i don't really care if it's cheating or not, and also random item shops with almost no limits on what items they can sell were not exactly the best-thought-out concept in the first place
