Actually, you do not get an iPad license when you buy the Mac version, since Apple runs the iOS App Store as a completely closed ecosystem. You can use your key for the Windows version though.

Looks like Linux to me. This is definitely an odd bug, but for now, I would suggest running it from a lowercase directory since that seems to work for you.Originally Posted By: ApportableHi there,
Which platform is this for? -

I doubt it's iOS, since the Humble games have never been released for iOS.Originally Posted By: ActaeonWhat original platform does Humble Bundle require? (I'm assuming it's either Windows or iOS, since we're looking at Avadon and not AEftP... which really needs a better acronym.)

You should probably take that up with the Humble people.

It always was available for Windows tablets. (Tablets running Windows) I think some open source enthusiasts would be quite angry to hear Android referred to as Windows.Originally Posted By: RandomizerThis will reduce the complaints that Jeff's games aren't available for Window's tablets.

I don't know, but it can't be good.Originally Posted By: ActaeonWhat happens when you snipe the big guy?

The latest Humble Indie Bundle contains Avadon. This is surprising enough, but even more surprisingly, it also reveals that Avadon is available for Android tablets.

Duke Nukem Forever was in development for fifteen years. The final product was terrible, but that's beside the point.

I just fixed that. I'm not quite sure how I had the wrong version up there, but it should be correct now.

Yeah, that was the era when we had group AIM chats, both spontaneous and planned multiple times each week.Originally Posted By: HOUSE of SBut we really did have a vibrant community for a couple of months there.

The games run flawlessly in Wine. The easiest way to play them on a modern Mac is to install the Windows versions using an implementation of Wine like Wineskin or CrossOver.Originally Posted By: AloraelIt's not trivial getting the Baldur's Gate games to run on a modern Mac, though. I don't think they're Lion-compatible, and I haven't gotten them functional on Snow Leopard, either. You might have better luck with emulated OS 9 or even Windows.
There also the GemRB project that has re-implemented the engine in a way that can be run on Mac, Windows, and everything else. I can't vouch for its accuracy or stability, but it's there.
—Alorael, who has had enough trouble getting all the patches for optimal (read: to taste) Baldur's Gate working when not running it through a third-party engine. But that brings up the interesting problem that any remake incompatible with all the dozens and dozens of mods and enhancements would be good but possibly unable to match the earlier version, at least not without some heavy porting working. -
In late 1999 or early 2000, I found the Nethergate demo on a disc that came with PC Gamer magazine. I played it over and over again. In the fall of 2002, I came to Spiderweb's site, finally bought Nethergate, and discovered the recently released Avernum trilogy. Three years later, I was replaying Nethergate and stumbled upon these forums while searching for help with something. The rest is history.

Silent Motion is an admin not a mod.

That will only work for resolutions smaller than the resolution of your screen. In this case, the OP's screen is 128 pixels too short.Originally Posted By: BMAThat was probably only a *filler*; an excuse for spamming through a signature. The links had nothing to do with Spidweb's games
Yeah, but you get custom resolution setting software on the web, you might want to try those. -
Cloud of Blades works pretty well.

That is a rakshasa. Rakshasi are magic-weilding anthropomorphized tigers. They can be found in isolated corners of A1 and A2.

The Windows versions of the original trilogy do indeed have diagonal movement with the arrow keys. If you have a keyboard with a numpad, you can use that to moved in all eight directions. If not, you can buy a fairly inexpensive USB numpad or use the mouse to move.

Milk often has vitamin D added to it, but many people do not consume a lot of milk.Originally Posted By: DikiyobaDikiyoba thought adequate vitamin D was fairly easy to come by just because so many diary products (and other foods?) have vitamin D was added to them. Is that wrong? Or a holdover from when people spent more time outside?

You should know by now that, in this community, if there is an opportunity for pedantry, someone will take advantage of it.Originally Posted By: The MysticWell, I used "photosynthesis" because I lacked better terminology; biology isn't exactly my strong point.
And the "pass the salt" thing was meant as tongue-in-cheek humor. -
Hi, Nem. Long time no see.

On the same token, And I'm really not trying to get into a shouting match here, it enrages me that someone might have to pay for medical procedures out of pocket just because their employer belongs to a minority group that objects to those procedures.Originally Posted By: HarehunterI may not agree with the Catholic church on certain issues, but it enrages me when I see legislation that would coerce them into actions that are contrary to their beliefs.
Thanks for the Linux port of Avadon !
