Well I'm almost done with this one! I mainly picked it up because I haven't been reading anything in a while, and I happen to have these… heirlooms… on hand! Although I am getting quite a bit of sexual content and whimsical child-ness! That, and Mr. Anthony seems to like exclamation points! A lot!
-
I started A Spell for Chameleon, the first book in Piers Anthony's Xanth series, a couple of days ago. Now I just need to find time to read it.
-
I have a couple of basic (and I mean basic) edits of the original child graphic so that they have long hair and different colored clothing. They served their purpose when I used them, though if you're looking for a dress, well…
Anyway. I just uploaded them here and here .
If you want a different color for the clothing, changing that is easy enough with Photoshop or a similar program.
You might consider adding a dialog pic, too. I think there are a few little girl portraits in the sheet of Band Art Portraits I uploaded at the Blades Forge a while ago.
I hope you find these useful.

It's also next to no information.
(But it does sound possibly interesting.) -

However, if you are new to scripting you should probably do dialog manually for a little bit. -
Alternatively, I've taken to using runes instead of portals. Comes in handy for something slightly less extravagant (although for that kind of script, I suspect you're looking for an attention-grabber anyway). An easy-ish way to make your own, if you wanted to, would be to use an existing door graphic as a base, then edit in a paint program from there.
Also, welcome to Spiderweb. You'll never escape with your sanity. (Bwahaha…)

It is basically about a girl who's nightmares somehow come alive.
Also, have I really actually changed?
And just looking at various responses to questions, as well as this thread itself, you've definitely gotten a lot better. Leaps and bounds. -
Iffy, if I may ask, any idea what the next scenario's gonna be about?
-
You know what, Iffy? Good.
To improve: take a look at some of the higher rated scenarios, maybe at the attached files as well, and find out just what makes them rate so high.
I support it.

I am halfway into Terry Brooks', "Elfstones of Shannara" and I will then move onto it's predecessor, "Wishsong of Shannara". Overall, it's an interesting book. I became a Brooks fan with his recent work, so it is nice to take a step back into time and read his earlier series. -
Thank you. I have now wasted several seconds of my life that I will never get back.

I disagree. In my opinion, not only should what happened to you continue to happen, but the Blades Forge should draw a number from 0 to 4 every time you try to post something, and if it's less than 2, it presents you with a screen that says "Ha ha! Idiot!" and makes you do it again. -

To actually create a .cmg file you need a resourcing program like ResEdit or ResFool (I don't think the former works on OSX). -
Hey, I've heard that you can also get scenarios at TrueSite… and they're FREE!
-
Alright, I have a question now, regarding the variable's data type. You both mentioned short, but I've seen short and int used interchangeably (I think). Is there a difference between the uses of the two?
-
I don't recall anything like that happening in MA (though it has been a while since I played it). I think I would benefit a lot from doing a lot of hardcore experimentation with BoA's capabilities, now that I have some understanding of the code.
-
I've thought of situations where you can, say, start off the scenario with the call to separate one member, play the scenario, then give them the party back at the end. I don't remember what the call is or where it can be used at present, though. Could you drop it in the scenario script, or would it have to be "stepped on"?
-
Just make sure the cutoff is in a place that makes sense. Maybe put the cutoff between "…center of the building." and "A small building is near the construct." That should take care of the oversized string, and the passage will still make technical sense.

You could say it was living on borrowed time for all these years. I have yet to learn of a single community hosted by ezboard that did not meet with disaster or sufficient inconvenience to eventually pack up and go somewhere competent - although the Lyceum kept on for astonishingly long. -
I may be in and out. I work this Saturday evening (wouldn't it figure… I hate closing on Saturdays).
So let's see… 7:00 PM EST would be 4:00 PM for me, I think. I ought to be able to make it in for a while. Provided there are no undesired complications from my end, of course.

Oh, sure. I'm not currently enrolled in school, and work's not being too busy.

Whether or not you'll actually provide any useful feedback: Remains to be seen, I suppose. I'll give you feedback, but its usefulness may be relative, and how you use it is up to you.
That said, if I don't, feel free to cut me from the credits.

If you're still looking for testers, well… I do seem to have a lot of spare time.
