Hello! I'm bit confused really ... AVERNUM:ESCAPE FROM THE PIT is a remake of AVERNUM 1 starting a third trilogy from what I have understood, But AVERNUM 4-6 are a REMAKE of AVERNUM 1-3 as well or they CONTINUE the story of the first trilogy? Thanks! Roberto

Thanks a lot! Roberto

Hello! I'm an RPG newbie so sometime I found difficult to understand what I have to do. At the start of the scenario FROSTBITE you and all the other people involved in the mission to hunt the beast are waiting near a campfire for the captain to return at the camp. I spoke to all of these people including the sergeant that told me to wait for the captain to return. So I returned to the camp and I pressed many times the WAIT button ... but after speaking again to all people, after pressing wait more times, nothing change and the captain doesn't arrive. What I have to do in order to continue in the adventure? Thanks in advance! Roberto

At first I downloaded the scenario A PERFECT FOREST (just to try with it) from both the sites you told me, but the result was always the same ... the game freezes. So, as for your advice, I tried the scenario but this time setting the BOA exe compatibility for WINDOWS XP and it worked! So I tried my original copy of the same scenario and it worked too. Thanks!

Hello! New to the site, the company and their games ... I have tried a couple of them and I was hooked so I bought all the games. One of them is BOA and for it I donwloaded many scenarios ... mostly from the Official Blades of Avernum Scenario Pages maintained by Spiderweb Software. Many of them work but some don't work on my PC ... I'm able to read the initial story screens but when the game try to load the main game screen it freezes; one of the scenario that doesn't work is A PERFECT FOREST for example. Windows VISTA 32 BITS, 4GB RAM, video card NVIDA GEFORCE GT240 with the latest drivers. Please note that ALL the other games (GENEFORGE, AVERNUM, AVADON, NETHERGATE) old or new work without flaws. It is only a BOA scenario problem ... BTW the 4 scenarios that come with the game run perfectly. Any advice? Thanks in advance! Roberto
