    Yep, it's all there. Enjoy. G3 was also available on the FTP site before being advertised on the webpages. Maybe it's Jeff's way to reward the extreme keeners. Or maybe he downs a few beers to celebrate posting the thing to FTP, and doesn't get around to the rest for a while.
    This just occurred to me, but I bet he wants to wait until G4 is put up on the site that does registration for him; then he uploads the the formal announcements.

    Okay, thanks a lot. I appreciate that. smile Kinda sucks about the insanity, though. It makes me angry that Trajkov is a stronger man than my character. mad

    ...
    No wonder I was confused about the batons. I'd forgotten how much changed between G1 and G2.

    Where did that come from?

    Anyway, I get how the leveling system works, but thanks for that anyway. I've now played far enough that my Fyora is worth something.

    Oh, and I knew I had another question: When I played the demos years ago I could have sworn I found a way to reload batons outside combat. Now the only way I can do it is in combat by using a turn. Help?

    I'll stick a tentacle out and mention what the big change was for me.

    I was able to summon a Fyora, a cryoa, a vlish, a battle alpha, and a plated clawbug.
    w00t! That's really bugged me in playing through the first 3.
  5. I just bought the trilogy, and have some random questions:

    1) Is it possible to get an ending for G1 in which you rejoin the shapers (after destroying the Geneforge) where they don't distrust you? (ie, you don't get the "always wonder what might have been" thing). Similarly, is there a way to use the Geneforge without going insane?

    2) I played G1 as a Shaper and just started G2 as a Guardian. The fyora I created at the beginning really sucks (he misses his shots as often as not, and I don't think that ever happened in G1). Is this because I'm a Guardian or because in G2 fyoras suck?

    3) In G1 you can pause the game by hitting escape and then switch into some other applications. I haven't found a way to switch out of G2 yet; is there one?

     

    Think that's it for now; thanks in advance for any answers. smile

    Isn't that barrier only applied to one of them at a time, though? So as soon as one gets it you just start hacking at the other one.

    EDIT: Whoops, forgot I was going back into old threads. Sorry.

  8. I have the Avernum trilogy on CD and want to update Avernum and A2 to be OS X compatible. Unfortunately, the updates seem to unregister the game. Is there any way to update without losing the registered status?

    (While I could just get keys again, the games were actually ordered by my father several years ago and I'd like to not go through the hassle of figuring out addresses and stuff.)

    Just the fact that this is the third game in a row to have "tests" is a bad thing.

    Dikiyoba finally writes Dikiyoba's first short post of the day.
    What were the tests in A3? I don't remember them.
    Oh, and test of this nature are convenient. Due to implementation they aren't entirely believable this time, but simply making use of them is not necessarily a bad thing.
  10. I've become confused with Dorikas too. I had no trouble with this fight, but I never saw him again. Was I supposed to?

    I ask because in my endgame text I swear it said that I killed him. (Though I was admittedly falling asleep after finally finishing the game, so maybe I'm just wrong.)
