So, readme and download link are ready, I moved everything to the first post, feel free to report if something went wrong with your install.

Okay, enlightened, sanctuary, possibilities noted, thanks.

 

Unused icons from the first trilogy.. Well, you might be right, Slartibus, in this case, I'll probably leave these icons in place until someone stumble over them ingame and send feedback. Alright, I'm moving to A6, install and modify, after that I'll be able to upoad the new graphic assets for A4, A5 and A6. (Edit: damn, many modifications I did were already done for A6 interface, I should have checked this one before initiating the import )

 

Oh and before I upload these files here, I hope that these assets aren't problematic regarding copyright status. I'm assuming that spiderweb legally owns the full assets for all its games and is not bond with any graphician that could share ownership of some of the graphic files, in any case if a moderator/admin/developer does not want me to upload these modifications, I'd be ok with it.

Question mark is dumbfounded

 

Thanks, as far as I know this dumbfounded effect does not exist in A-EFTP, am I right ?

 

Dripping teeth is poison

 

Actually, I already identified poison (and acid) in the magical effects list, that's why this dripping teeth is bothering me

with the new "data" folder you unzipped, say yes when prompted for overwrite.

If you have the steam version, the default location of your game should be

4. IMPROVEMENTS ?

 

*****************************************************************

Since I'm quite new to the Avernum world, I have troubles "translating" some of the

magical effects icons used by avernum second trilogy, the manual does have a chart

to list magical effects but it is incomplete. So I need intel from experienced players

knowing second trilogy enough to help me identify the missing pieces and,

later, confirm that I set the right matches.

 

In this image below, the first colum shows the icons I'm unsure about

how they translate from A-4, A-5 to A6, the second column shows icons

I know nothing about, what they mean or when they are triggered ingame:
