Very Good!

This is one of the few threads I do read. Continue as you have with all the pretty pictures.

It looks great. And Intel Native is even better!

I would like to request that Cheeseball or at least Cheeseball ll make an appearance. The cat was more interesting than dusty old Solberg any how.

Very good. I like!

I would reccomend playing all the games in the span of a month. But G4 like all the rest are standalone games if you need them to be.

i LIKE!

Awh, you missed all the fun of running through the lab and every step being followed by the Roth. I really enjoyed running through all the areas watching the mines go off and such. Then the final pylons what a relief that was to see them.

Thank You.

I haven't played dthrough the original. So I guess I',m a bit blurry about the ending.

I think people have been there for a century at least, and there's definitely no way everything from Delis to Blackcrag could have been settled in the few years between the Empire War and A3. I agree that there must have been many portals into Avernum, but they probably all dumped into the same terminus. Finding more than one exit would take more work, not less, and the Empire isn't keen on the comfort of its rejects. —Alorael, who now can't remember what, if anything, came of the various mentions of the nephilim having a separate portal into Avernum in A1. This is just his day for not remembering. Ah, yes the cute little kitties. I do remember something about them having a portal.

I hadn't noticed them running any slower. Weird.

Happy holidays Jeff, come back in one piece. It workes on 10.4.8. It works for me any way. It's a PPC game but intel iMacs have Rosetta so it shouldn't be a problem.

After that, we will begin work on a new, more modern version of an old classic. Yes, we are making Nethergate 2.0! This makes me happy, though I haven't finished the original. Maybe I should do that when I've got some free time, since I did get the game. Anyone else excited? (what a silly question to ask....)

North-West Corner MOS DEF. It does seem to fit the clues.

This almost makes me want to replay the game. Man you're really into this stuff. Good job!

Quote: Originally written by Spidweb: "Now all that's missing is secret passages. Wall bumping plz!" Nope. The new area is up a certain remote river (visited in early games but not Avernum 4). The obstructions in it were cleared by workers sent by the king to reach new areas for Avernum's growing population. There are predictable problems arising from this, but they aren't the main focus of the plot. One of the nice things about setting a game is the underworld is, dude, there are always more caves. :-) - Jeff Vogel Hmm now where could that be?

I played a Servile warrior right through, with no battle magic and no mental magic use. I basically depended on Blessing magic. But even there my top spell was Essence armor. I had regeneration for my top healing spell. Otherwise i just blessed and hacked away. Wingbolts were particularly difficult as they kept running away and I had no way to stop them, save cornering.

Exactly. Why would I want major heal, when I don't even have enough points in healing craft? It just seems like there's an abundance of "spell" canisters.

I felt severely underpowered as a servile melee warrior. Even now when I've been tromping around some of the harder areas like Matala (sp?), I still fell like I can't hit. My damage is nearly 200 + after two swings. But that isn't enough to take a wing-bolt down. A third swing however would be perfect for many situations. I just didn't feel as powerful as in pervious G1-G3 games. And, what's with all the canisters that boost spells? I would rather have +1 to strength or healing craft or spell-craft or dexterity. I could have gotten through the game using no canisters. They simply aren't beneficial to a warrior. Oh well, I probably just put my skill points into the wrong areas like melee weapons and such. Excellent game though.

The lanterns where fun. I only used them once or twice in the begining. But my character seemed to be glowing any way, so light wasn't a huge issue.

And it's nice that the lanterns actually work. Realism!
