    Thank you. I was wondering if that file might be it, even though it is so small and I was wanting to try it when I got the time, because it was the only other file that the medals might be contained in. It works.
  2. Difficulty may be it, I had started on casual as I usually start games off on easy, without realizing actually how easy it would really be.

     

     

    "Medals are stored in preference file as far as I can tell for determining if you have been award them."

    By preference file I think you mean the AvScenData file? I already tried that.

  3. Firstly, I completed the game remaining loyal to Redbeard and did not receive the employee of the month award. I remained loyal throughout the entire game, and told Redbeard everything being honest the whole time.

     

    Second, where are medals stored? I copied the AvScenData file but the medals on this PC are still the same.

  4. It is killing anyone and everyone. SWS games are getting too linear now, and now all characters are too important for you to be able to kill whoever you want; I can't even get people to hate me by taking all their stuff. Jeff's games were founded on players making decisions, but Avadon so far has me just following a story, with not much decision making so far, or they don't have an effect on the game yet. I miss being able to attack whoever I want, and maybe being the last significant intelligent life form if I'm having a bad day.

     

    Also, I like being able to go solo. Avadon isn't a game where there is even a tiny advantage to playing a solo character, and trying it would be extremely difficult.

  5. In the Bereza Pits, East of the area of the "lumberjacks", northeast corner of minimap, there is some bones and junk on the ground and a secret switch on the wall. An area will open up just east of there with a pit leading to the ogres.

  7. I looked quickly and didn't see anything to indicate whether a creation is unstable or not. One possibility is that the creature numbers themselves are coded to be unstable, but I can't think why it would be done that way. Try setting one of them as only an import of a stable creation and see if it is still unstable.

  8. I believe that the "canon" ending is that the PC did not use the Geneforge, killed trajkov and probably Goettsch too, and fled the island to alert the shaper council. G2 doesn't really go into details, just that the PC told the council, and then they sent shapers, Zackary and Barzhal included, to clean up the island. What events actually transpired there, or how the shapers handled the remaining Sholai, is unknown.

     

    As far as other endings, I can't tell you any, and as far as I know, there is no list. I think the text is not included in the graphics for the endgame.

  9. If they are hostile from doing something like stealing, you can use this cheat to make them forgive you

    pleaselikeme

     

    If you want to make sure you are not in a sect, you can use the cheat

    clearallsects

     

    This is of course if you want to use cheat codes and didn't deactivate them.

    The reason I ask is because it says there is an option to play with direct X for the graphics, and I don't see that option when I go to the windows menu entry for the game, and it says it should be there in the game instructions.


    Quote:

    If Avadon's graphics do not display correctly or the game still runs slowly even in Fast Graphics Mode, try running the DirectX version. It is in the Start Menu, in Spiderweb Software > Avadon.


    I just checked it, and there is only one version of the game to run. I don't know why it would indicate a separate version if there is only one. Possibly this is a Mac version relic?

    But like Excalibur said, the demo already contains the full game, which can be unlocked via registration code. No extra downloading is needed, no saves will be lost. Even if you had to reinstall the game, the saves are stored in MyDocuments and wouldn't be lost.

    I finally got around to buy the game today myself, and it is great. The demo seems to be the shortest demo of all SWS games though, this is saddening. The game is great though, very glad I bought it. Then again, I've never regretted buying any other SWS game either.
  11. You must progress past the secret tunnel, which will allow you the option of joining the loyalist faction. If you ask Zakary to join, and you have enough pro-shaper opinion or high enough leadership, you will be able to learn more creations from the shaper trainer there, including the battle alpha. If you have the full version, you can learn some more powerful creatures early too, such as the illegal drayk, with the loyalist faction.

     

    It is interesting how you can join the loyalists and the awakened with just leadership. Doesn't learned Darian offer the ability to change opinion of you once in G2 also? I think I remember that there is a way to join all the factions too.

  12. Is that the bandit group related to Astoria's Quest? You question them during the quest about the assassination attempt, and they allow you to enter their camp peacefully, excluding a small portion with a valuable piece of information if I remember correctly, which you can aquire via sneakage. It may require leadership to have that piece of dialogue, but I am not sure; I always have a fairly high leadership skill level.
