Nephil Thief Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 At the Gallows - last I checked, the version I have archived has a rather amusing bug where an important item is right on the floor in front of the wizard you're supposed to give it to. Falling Stars - the archived version doesn't have the completed hall of contributors (in the starting town) or the Denmark quest. The Shadow of the Stranger - archived version doesn't let you turn off tree climbing, final version did. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Almighty Doer of Stuff Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 All scenarios I want to play when I'm done with E3. I'm sure someone has them, and I'd like them too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Celtic Minstrel Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 I assume the versions on OpenBoE.com aren't more up-to-date than what you have? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nephil Thief Posted March 1 Author Share Posted March 1 @Celtic MinstrelNope, my Google Drive scenario repo is basically just mirrored from there; the versions are the same. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Almighty Doer of Stuff Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 My archive is the same as CM's, although I've been working now and then on neatening the filenames of the scenario ZIPs. Otherwise it's the same. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ess-Eschas Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Just to help with searching, Nephil Thief, could you please post the specific version numbers of your copies of these three scenarios? This makes it easier to compare versions, since people can tell at a glance whether they have a different version to you. The quickest way to find the version number is through a scenario’s documentation. Alternatively, you can find it through BoE itself. Just make sure the scenario is visible in your scenario folder (put a space or two at the front of its name if necessary), load up a party outside of a scenario, and flick through the ‘Custom Scenario’ list until you find the one you’re looking for. The version number is right at the top. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Celtic Minstrel Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Yeah, I thought as much. Sorry I couldn't help, then. Presumably the official Spiderweb archive is even less up-to-date, right? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Almighty Doer of Stuff Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Stareye's own website has version 1.0.1 of At The Gallows, the same version which is in our archives. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nephil Thief Posted March 2 Author Share Posted March 2 (edited) @The Almighty Doer of Stuff- oh, then maybe there never was a fix for the item placement thing. I might have misremembered v1.0.2 existing. @Ess-Eschasand anyone else - Falling Stars for me is v1.0.1, and Shadow of the Stranger is v1.2.0. Thanks y'all!@Celtic Minstrel- yeah, the versions on Spidweb's own downloads page are the same as those I have. Edited March 2 by Nephil Thief Ess-Eschas 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Celtic Minstrel Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 The only other place I can think of is Truesite4Blades, but I'm pretty sure the OpenBoE archive is directly derived from that, so there's probably no point checking. (It is currently archived at OpenBoE.com though, if you want to take a look. I think it's untouched from the archive Jewels sent me save for updating broken internal links, though I might've missed some.) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nephil Thief Posted March 2 Author Share Posted March 2 (edited) @Celtic MinstrelI know the archived Lyceum had the final version of Falling Stars, but AFAIK it disappeared when Truesite went down, and the Wayback Machine didn't catch most of the HTML let alone the zip files. The version in the scenario archive was always earlier than the one from the archived Lyceum. If there's still an archive of the Lyceum floating around though, it might still have the final version. (And if anyone sends that my way, I'll update the one in my own archive mirror.) Edit: yes, the Lyceum is still archived!http://truesite.openboe.com/SWArchive/Geocities/blyceum/index.html The links did not get modified so it takes some manual changing of URLs to navigate, but it looks like everything should still be there. Thank you profoundly!Edit 2: grabbed all the final version Alcritas scenarios, thanks. This command worked: wget -r -np -l 1 -A zip http://truesite.openboe.com/SWArchive/Geocities/alcritas/ Going to put those in my Google Drive archive momentarily. Edit 3: or not. That grabbed a bunch of Javascript files? Weird. Anyway grabbing them manually worked ok. Edited March 2 by Nephil Thief Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Almighty Doer of Stuff Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Could I have a link, please? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ess-Eschas Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Good work, Nephil Thief. That’s a pretty neat way to solve the problem! 1 hour ago, The Almighty Doer of Stuff said: Could I have a link, please? The links are essentially all there on TrueSite already. You just need to manually type in the name of the zip file at the end of web address, rather than following the link. This is just because the link doesn’t connect to the correct root address at the moment! Still, to save you some work: Spoiler http://truesite.openboe.com/SWArchive/Geocities/alcritas/apologia.ziphttp://truesite.openboe.com/SWArchive/Geocities/alcritas/falling.ziphttp://truesite.openboe.com/SWArchive/Geocities/alcritas/theseus.ziphttp://truesite.openboe.com/SWArchive/Geocities/alcritas/pippen.ziphttp://truesite.openboe.com/SWArchive/Geocities/alcritas/lament.ziphttp://truesite.openboe.com/SWArchive/Geocities/alcritas/goodevil.ziphttp://truesite.openboe.com/SWArchive/Geocities/alcritas/algiers.ziphttp://truesite.openboe.com/SWArchive/Geocities/alcritas/redem.ziphttp://truesite.openboe.com/SWArchive/Geocities/alcritas/portents.ziphttp://truesite.openboe.com/SWArchive/Geocities/alcritas/kayolith.ziphttp://truesite.openboe.com/SWArchive/Geocities/alcritas/tomorrow.zip Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Almighty Doer of Stuff Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Thanks. I didn't understand what was being said. So now we just need the final version of "Shadow of the Stranger". My very cursory googling turned up nothing. I don't know where I'd look. Drizzt had a website once upon a time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nephil Thief Posted March 2 Author Share Posted March 2 @The Almighty Doer of StuffI think Drizzt's page might also be in the Truesite archive? And I've added the files to my archive FYI. Directory structure now looks like game/ BoE-1.2.0a-win32.exe scenarios/ alcritas-final-versions/ [Alcritas scenarios] truesite-archive/ [Scenarios from the Truesite archive] Link is in my signature. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Almighty Doer of Stuff Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Drizzt's site is archived, but the scenario ZIPs are frustratingly absent - unless they're mislabeled. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Celtic Minstrel Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 I fixed a bunch of Lyceum/Alcritas-related links, but the archive of Drizzt's website is quite broken. It looks like it was downloaded through a browser using the "save whole web page" feature, because there are a bunch of "this_web_page_files" folders which oftentimes contain duplicate content. There are also a whole bunch of missing images, and the zip files seem to be absent too. Nephil Thief 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
