Hatchling Cockatrice Mea Tulpa Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 I'm coming in to the closing stretch of my work on the A2CS remix, thanks in part to some waking up from Aeolus (thanks, Aeolus!). It's significantly more ambitious than the first one and I'm pretty excited about it. It'll be a few days before I finish, but as we're rapidly running out of summer, I'd like to line up a few testers for when it's ready, with the goal of a 1.0 release late next week. This will not be super heavy demand testing -- I'm not expecting long playthroughs or anything -- but I've made so many small changes that I know extra eyes will be helpful. If you're interested and have some time free early next week, please PM me your email address. If I don't already know who you are, please also say something to give me some confidence that you would be a competent and helpful tester. Testers will receive some pretty nifty credit within the remix itself (as will Edgwyn and Dikiyoba, who gave me some great testing on another project that didn't come to fruition). Also note that while this will run on Macs and PCs, including on Steam, it will not work on iOS copies of the game (or copies purchased through the Mac App Store). Sorry. (Blame Apple.)

Easygoing Eyebeast Triumph Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 I would do this...except that I don't want to divide my attention and get sidetracked from trying to play Avadon 2. But I am glad to hear this is happening! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Mea Tulpa Posted August 24, 2015 Author Share Posted August 24, 2015 Bump -- anyone interested? I don't have much time for testing at the moment, so if it's just me, there's going to be some more delay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenderfoot Thahd Gharbad the handsome Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 I've just relocated for a new job so I can't right now. The last one looked really good though. The weakest part of Jeffs games is usually the balancing so it's great to see that improved upon. Did making a remix for Avernum 2 make you reconsider anything you did the for Avernum 1 remix?

Garrulous Glaahk dave s Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Was the remix ever released? Or were there no testers, so it couldn't get off the ground? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Mea Tulpa Posted September 6, 2015 Author Share Posted September 6, 2015 It's mostly done but I had to put off finishing it for a bit, as it wasn't plausible before the new year hit given the circumstances. Testers are still wanted, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgeoning Battle Gamma kuo Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Hey! I gave up on my own remix (I'm lazy and trying to enjoy my summer as much as possible), but I would be more than willing to help out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fledgling Fyora JustJeff88 Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Do you mind if I ask how it's going, Slartibus? I don't post here very often but I really liked what you did with the Remix for Escape from the Pit, so I would enjoy it if you would keep us up-to-date. I would offer to help you test, but I just started a new job and, if I'm being honest, I haven't played through vanilla Crystal Souls yet, so I wouldn't be comfortable or probably capable of contrasting and comparing the base version and yours.

Hatchling Cockatrice Mea Tulpa Posted September 9, 2015 Author Share Posted September 9, 2015 Thanks, Jeff -- and see above. It's a busy time of year for me, so I don't want to make any specific promises, but I hope you'll enjoy it when it's done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curious Artila Caisy Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 I'll do it, sent a pm... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatchling Cockatrice Mea Tulpa Posted December 27, 2015 Author Share Posted December 27, 2015 Thanks for the moral support, everyone. In typical Slarty fashion, I have started too many projects instead of just picking one and finishing it. I'm actually trying to remedy that right now, but this project isn't the lucky one. So, not quite yet... GiantFriendlyTalkingSpiderman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenderfoot Thahd ArcticPrism Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Is this still in development? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Is this still in development? If you define development as some day it might happen. Hopefully before the September release of Avadon 3: The Warborn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Mea Tulpa Posted March 25, 2016 Author Share Posted March 25, 2016 It's still 80% done but progress has basically halted. I would like to get back to it. Depending on what my summer looks like, it may happen then, but next year may be more likely given other projects I have going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotghroth Rhapsody Jawaj Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 I know this probably isn't going to happen, but if you ever did want to finish this I would be happy to help with testing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Mea Tulpa Posted February 24 Author Share Posted February 24 Thanks. I've just discovered that I do still in fact have the files for this. I'm not sure I have the time to deal with the last 10% of stuff necessary to get it finished, but in the crazy event that happens, I'll PM you.

Fledgling Fyora Rochndil Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 I would love to give this a spin, even incomplete. I very much enjoyed your work for A:EftP. Rochndil, who has (probably) settled on a party roster now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
