Your scenario data file is the place to reference new creatures, floors, items, and terrains. It would be named somethingdata.txt, where 'something' is the name of the scenario (which you named when creating it). Make sure to use unused numbers for the objects you put in the data file, or be sure of the consequences. Like Nioca said, reading the docs, especially those on Kelandon's Pink and Pretty Page, is a great way to start. After that, play around with an existing scenario to see how it is constructed. Good luck, and keep asking questions.

I made a really nasty bow through item editting. begindefineitem 477; import = 316; it_name = "Klehvarh's Bow"; it_value = 3000; it_ability = 52; it_level = 80; it_graphic_coloradj = 64; it_stats_to_affect 0 = 10; it_stats_addition 0 = 2; it_stats_to_affect 1 = 6; it_stats_addition 1 = 3; it_stats_to_affect 2 = 204; it_stats_addition 2 = 2; It's been a while, but it shot acid arrows of unusual potency. Like people said, make sure you back things up. Use the // symbol to comment the script so you can make and reverse changes easily.

Not having seen G4 I feel somewhat at a disadvantage, as things I may like to see in 5 may already exist in 4. In G1 I liked the in-town feeling of each section. This was largely gone by G3, and it would nice to have it back. I also miss outdoor adventuring, but that was never in Geneforge. As far as advances that I predict we'll see in G4 are the idea of antagonists using cover to their advantage. That would be nice to see, as the current, stupid, approach takes me a bit out of the game.

Windows only, although a wiki hunt will land you in Macompatible lands. As for the other question, my party is likely to die because I don't pay close attention to their health. Me? Senselessly and dramatically. Likely from falling or drowning, is isn't drowning just slow motion falling? Without screams?

Quote: Originally written by Zeviz: The next thing you know, we'll be forming an exploratory comittee to research the approaches towards selecting the most suitable venue for appointing the designated official, or at least authorized, topic starter with the limited priveliges of opening up the discussion of the topic in question in the venue agreed upon in prior deliberations. Could we at least arrange a time or a place of the exploratory committee (drawn up of representative duly elected members of both the community at large and district representatives, as well as community ex patria) meetings so that the damn notice can get approved by the memorandum committee for disbursement to our various printing outsourcers for proposals? On that note, has anyone seen the RFP guidelines? I know they were/are/will be in the RW library at some point. I'm just not sure when. Edit - It was a tense time.

Great news. Congrats on having a more relaxed holiday this year.
