Fledgling Fyora Aizome Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 I've been typing up some notes for a custom scemario set in the Geneforge world. Has there been any hints as to whether a scenario editor will even come out for Geneforge? I don't want to put too much time into it if it's never going to see the light of day. Thanks.

Garrulous Glaahk Tarson Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 No it, as i understand it, will never come out. Many discutions have been had over BoG but they all come up as no. I wouldnt mind seeing it, but I dont think it will happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Acky Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Blades of Avernum almost put the company out of buisness, unfortunatly. So I'm sorry, but there will most probably never be a Blades of Geneforge But the good news is that the Blades of Avernum community is alive and well. The Geneforge world can be easily set in the BoA engine, aside from obvious differences, such as not being able to create creations. Someone is already trying to create a Geneforge based scenario, as a matter of fact, (And from the looks at the screenshots, succeeding.) Edit: Sniped by Tarson.

Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Jeff made so little on Blades of Avernum that he will probably never make another Blades type game. Too much time is needed to fix all the things that he can ignore when he uses it for his own games. Right now he is working on Avernum 6 and planning his next game engine for a new game and hopefully successful series. Edit - Beaten by Master Ackrovan Keladon once theorized how to run creations in BoA. There should be a topic about it from 2 years ago. I doubt the search function will find it.

Tenderfoot Thahd Agent Dove Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Just wouldn't be Geneforge without shaping . Dove Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall The Ratt Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Has it ever been suggested that BoG be open source, designed by people here? Or are there too many liscensing things involved? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Everything is controlled by Jeff so his permission is needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast *i Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Getting an open source Blades of Avernum would probably be a lot more likely in the middle term since the code for that is older and less useful to competitors. I would not count on it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
