Kyshakk Koan Mod. Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Dikiyoba Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Dikiyoba had that problem too. Did you get promoted to Heart? What difficulty are you playing on? Did you use any cheats? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 If you use some cheat codes you don't get medals. Medals are stored in preference file as far as I can tell for determining if you have been award them. Edit - Hand, Eye, and Heart are based on lowest difficulty that you had during the game.

Kyshakk Koan Mod. Posted May 28, 2011 Author Share Posted May 28, 2011 No, I didn't use cheats. I asked to stay a hand, do you have to be promoted to heart? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Heart medal is for doing the entire game on torment difficulty. Being promoted to Heart involves certain dialog choices at the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyshakk Koan Mod. Posted May 28, 2011 Author Share Posted May 28, 2011 I'm not looking for heart medal, I'm wondering what are the exact requirements for employee of the month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Dikiyoba Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Okay, no cheats and remained a hand. What about the difficulty level? Dikiyoba. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unflappable Drayk Ceiling Durkheim Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 I've stayed a hand and received Employee Of The Month, so it's not that. This was on hard difficulty (and thus I got the Hand and Eye medals), if that matters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyshakk Koan Mod. Posted May 29, 2011 Author Share Posted May 29, 2011 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.

Hatchling Cockatrice Aoslare Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 This may be one of the medals where EVER having the difficulty below Normal disqualifies you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On my (Windows Vista) computer, medals appear to be stored in AvadonSettings.dat, which is located in the {USERNAME}/Documents/Spiderweb Software/Avadon Saved Games folder. Annoyingly, the location of Avadon Saved Games probably varies from OS to OS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyshakk Koan Mod. Posted May 30, 2011 Author Share Posted May 30, 2011 Medals are supposed to be unobtainable after using cheat codes, are they not? Usage of the experience giving code will still allow you to get the level awards, and I was able to get the award for killing Zephyrine after using cheats to do so. Not sure what else works. Is it only the story-based awards that are affected or what? Edit: Apologies for the double post if it isn't allowed; I didn't remember I had the last post before clicking the new reply button at the top of the page. It isn't in violation of the code of conduct, but is generally frowned though I don't think this one was harmful in any way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Aoslare Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 No. Using a cheat code will stop you from getting a medal until you leave the zone you are currently in. If the medal is triggered while you're there, you miss it forever. If it's triggered later, you'll still get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatchling Cockatrice Aoslare Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Really? Huh. Well, what I said is what Jeff said, but maybe the code is slightly different depending on what the exact trigger is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
