Ineffable Wingbolt DesertPlah Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Been quite awhile since I've visited the old boards. I like the new look (AND the fact that someone has FINALLY taken the time to update stuff!). So what do I need to know if, say, I've been away for several years? Is Alorael still lurking? Do I need to duck and hide my skrib? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Alorael isn't lurking, but he has slowed down his postage rate. Too busy sniping at pedestrians. Jeff released BoE as open source, so it is getting updated by the community. Exile games recently became freeware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Harehunter Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 I'm getting a new DBA at work to take some of the load off me. Maybe I'll have some time freed up to finish my Exile Annotated Maps. Or get my BOE editor converted to C so that MAC and linux users can use it.

Understated Ur-Drakon The Almighty Doer of Stuff Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Welcome back! I strongly encourage you to stick around, and design and play some scenarios! We need the audience, and we need the content. The more of each we have, the bigger the potential draw for new and returning players.

Ineffable Wingbolt DesertPlah Posted June 25, 2013 Author Share Posted June 25, 2013 How's the audience looking? I've got the foundation for a good one laid over the last few years (think Skylark Vale, a long time ago). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Understated Ur-Drakon The Almighty Doer of Stuff Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Ooh! I love Skylark Vale. I'd play it. Nikki said he might play scenarios, the code developers (Sylae, Tridash, Harehunter, maybe others) most likely would, and if Trenton can figure out how to click his mouse without me holding his hand () then he might play as well. It's not nearly as huge an audience as during the BoE heyday unfortunately, but it's still enough players that a new scenario would hopefully be worth it.

Ineffable Wingbolt DesertPlah Posted June 25, 2013 Author Share Posted June 25, 2013 It pains me to inform you that I seem to have…uh…misplaced my work on the matter. Even searching using undeleter programs does no good. Commencing hopeful search of old hard drives and document archives. EDIT: 1 hard drive down, 2 HD's and 1 document archive to go. Got to wait til we move on those, though, as I've packed them away in anticipation of purchasing our first house. EDITx2: Fairly upsetting, really. I had a BUNCH of work done on it: Town and Outdoor maps looked nice, characters all accounted for (beds for each human, too!), ready to throw them all into a delicious story. I hope I find it. I'm gonna go unpack those things right now, it's worth knowing if its all on there… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
