The World of Avlis

I'm a Dell guy for laptops. They've just always had rock solid gamer laptops, although pricey as hell. XPS Gen 1 and 2 rock.

I have an 8800 768m. I wonder if I could hit recommended on Crysis (although I have no idea what that game is).

Wow I know both of the characters involved in this month's RPotM. I'm either old, or been around too long, or something of the sort.

Congrats! Couldn't have gone to two more dedicated RPers.

Mitigation is almost always better than avoidance. It's much harder to heal spike damage than sustained damage.

Well the portrait download links are dead, so not sure what to say. Do you have your old portrait packs? I've done everything I can to get the portraits as of a couple of days ago, and I can't find a working link anywhere, so hopefully you have your old ones.

Does anyone know where I can get the portrait packs? The catara link on the wiki is dead.

Please and thanks.

So, he didn't like the cameras, the graphics, the NPC dialouge, the controls or the battle system but it got a 9 out of 10. wtf? Sorry. It looks sad. QFT So I guess he thinks it's just about perfect? I don't really get it. Sounds like they figure all the fanbois will buy it just because its NWN2. T...

Grats Now get out there and start pwning n00bs!

I used to be big into MMORPG's like UO and SWG, but I don't really play them anymore because they have no magic for me now that I've made a NWN PW. All I see is code and design. "Man, that's gonna screw up the economy." or "Man, I wonder how many players whined about that change." or "Man, that que...

Grats you guys. And the comments rock!

Well it sure seems like the code is there now. Well an example of how it's done.

Horses in Avlis would be sweet.

My epic can't deal out damage for squat, but survives just fine due to excellent defenses. It's possible you don't see that strategy much on Avlis because of the ease of coming back to life. People aren't very afraid of dying so they design characters to be completely offensive and not defensive at...

I think you would definitely want to go dev crit if you are melee based. Then you don't have to worry about multipliers. And I also agree dex melee types are pretty screwed. Although knowing that, dex users are probably doing sneak attack and bow use. I know I already do this most of the time, and I...

Grats you three!

You can adjust where the 'front' of the object is without having it move on the z axis by right clicking it and adjusting its location that way. Use the small clock looking area of the location adjust interface. This way you can turn objects that are 'imbedded' in another object without them popping...

I like what the guy from Something Awful did, he had a string of incoherent email dialog where I think he eventually was asking the nigerian guy for money so he could set it all up.

Ahh I found out why I couldn't find any autoclose, etc scripts. You have to import the erf into the toolset. 'File' -> 'Import' This piece I found on the net. lol I'll put that in the FAQ.

Turning the no ambient version flame animation on and off worked, if you want to always keep ambient off. My cave is torch lit only, so I need the ambience. The problem really lies in the unaligned flame and ambience on the campfire (and the campfire with cauldron). I don't think there's a way to fi...

Ahh I have that. I need to look closer.

Awesome jay. =) I had figured it would be a GetObject, but didn't know what the function was. (I'm getting back to building a mod I started a while back, and I'm sure this is going to come in really handy) For my 'house' I went with a campfire, no illumination, set it to usable and deactivated, then...

Just tested that script, and the illumination does not fade. The flames go out, but the illumination is still there. In order to turn both the flame AND illumination off, you would have to add: void SetPlaceableIllumination(object oFire=OBJECT_SELF,int bIllum=FALSE); RecomputeStaticLighting(GetArea(...

And no peeking from the Adventurer's Guild Hall, Fifty!! *shakes fist*

To be fair, it's really a 2x2 since two of the tiles are water. =D

=D Awesome! Also, I'm pretty sure this will not work as a light source with ambient turned off. The flame emits no light, iirc when I was turning ambient off last night. I'll jump back in it tonight, and see how it works. Thanks CPU and Sindol! This little cave/house has a sweet feel to it (torch li...

Thanks, Marleh.

Someone on the Bioware boards also suggested making a makeshift campsite out of other placables.

Turning it is a good idea.

I wonder if the in-game creatable campfire has the same illumination issue? I never stopped long enough to check.
