Mortimer

All my other graphics are on the Louvre (sp?) ... the Blood Beast was the last before I 'retired' (mostly because I never actually got around to getting it BoA ...eheh ...).

Basicly it started with converting the item graphics of BoE with a 'ground' image for Avernum. Theres the ice demon (Which has the melting death animation) and a wild boar ... and the beggar/mage Wraith edit.

Maybe it's time I made some more?

P.S. As long as you put a credit somewhere in the readme I'll be happy Laz ... maybe I should check?

Up in Northland.

All I could tell is that it was a spare monster in BoE ... I liked and made a new graphic for it for the old graphic competition. So your guess is as good as mine ... but as you can see I tried to have the death animation sort of melt into a big pool of blood and explode into chunks ... it came out abit pony in the end.

Hmmm, seems alittle cheap of me to reappear just for this ... but I saw someone wanted to use one of my old graphics ... do you have access to my old Blood Beast? May I be him?

Uh, here he is.

Firstly ... thats just creepy Dikky.

I liked the atmosphere of Avernum ... and Blades of Avernum, though I don't own it yet, I just the idea of creating.

in A2 once you are down to 1 or 2 weak enemies they tended to run.

Rather than new ingame stuff I'd prefer something like less jerky interface (I found it jerky anyway, but maybe I'm not used to it).

A 'camera' follow option would be nice for example, rather than having to move to the edge of the screen or manually scrolling.

I wouldn't mind if the size of the graphics where reduced ... say, half way between A1/2/3's and A4's size (A4, though large and detailed, feels small and clostrophbic).

Other than that a good plot, some fun quests and dungeons to explore... and she'll be right I say.

I descovered if your fast enough you can reach the normally slime destroyed town before it becomes destroyed .... nobody is there though .... I don't think it would be possible to check if the Alien beast towns are the same (as you need permission to enter the province and all).

Unfortunately you dont have 'Grab the eggs and take them to Gnass to be bought up with good old fashioned Slith values' option.

It is entirely upto you ... just be ready to deal with some really PO'ed parents.

Nothing as fun as abit of trespassing. On a similiar note is the trick usable in any other notable locations ... like the Dragon lairs?

Well I did give A4 a spin today ... honestly it feels to clunky, interface wise and the movement of the screen to follow the characters ... and it hasn't grabbed me quite like the previous titles ... so it probley wont be a purchase I make in the near future.... but each to their own, as they say.

I inspected the dressers ... I received a message that one has a depression, but my characters don't know what to do with it....

Do I need a particuliar item? ... trigger an event? ... some more Vahnatai Lore?

I finished much to soon for the one time based event as well ... I had to do alot of courier quests while I waited.

Hey all.

I've just started going through A2 again. After receiving Dispel Barriers I returned to Gaddika's fortress to a few inaccessible areas (the Vahnatai Fortress to the Northeast of the Vahnatia lands).

Just off the stream at the back of the fortress is a passage, blocked off by a few barriers and with a closed gate, behind which is a basilisk ... I can get past the barriers, shoot the basilisk through the gate ... but have searched high and low (using Farsight mostly) to find a lever or something to open that gate, but with no luck.

Little Help?

Enter the Vahtrix.

I'm not sure you missed much (Boots of Speed I think).

Also Sulfras can't be killed, I've tried, it says she is invincible whenever I tried to hit her.

The passage to the surface, which is the only Major Quest that will infact end the game.

Edit: On another note, all the statue tells you is that one of the traps in Sulfras Treasure room is faulty, the one in the southeast corner I believe.

about 4 by 6 outdoor sections, if thats any indication to you. Not knowing your play speed or explorative nature, It's hard to say how much game play time you will get out of it.

The majority seem not to think so, personally I enjoy it, if I have some spare points I usually plonk them into a characters alchemy skill.

If you didn't find it useful in Exile though I doubt you will find it any more useful in Avernum.

Hasn't that seven year old been a seven year old for 2 or 3 years now?

Oh damn, does that mean we have to stop playing as soon as we all turn 9?

Any chance of getting a serious discussion out of me ended with this comment.

Maybe its very hot pink strawberry jam that holds the Eyebeasts together.
