The World of Avlis

Actually it IS a cross post. This belongs on the CoPaP or Hala boards, unless the Hala boards are down. Either way it does not belong on the Avlis boards.

There is nothing in the FR campaign setting book or the character guide on shadow dancers? This is realy what I was asking...well beyond if somewhere it is explained where these abilities are coming from. I own the FRCS and it doesn't really discuss shadow dancers at all. It talks about the shadow ...

Mikona is rediculously easy to get xp on as a newbie, even solo.

If it has been longer than 48 hours there are multiple posts in multiple forums telling you what you should do.

Hey what do you all use for veiwing .tga files and converting then to .jpg's? I am looking for something small and free as I only will be using it for NWN stuff. When you take a picture in NWN using print screen it not only makes a .tga file but it also leaves a copy on the clipboard. So if you ahe...

Actually, if you try to put an item from your inventory into a bag and the bag is full it stays in your inventory.

Selling my Strangg1 account! This includes my warrior Harthgrepa as well as my cleric Strangg. $2,000,000, USD only. Cashiers checks prefered, cash and checks accepted, 7-10 days to let a check clear the bank. 50% of the proceeds go to pimping out the Avlis servers and buying diapers for Orls twins....

Yeah, i used to play AC too, and i would see some accounts go for thousands of dollars on ebay. Rediculous. Speaking of AC, their going to do an expansion pack for it, which will double the polygon count (making the graphics ALOT better), and add new areas, items, quests, etc. Might be pretty cool,...

You can't change armor, however you CAN change rings, belts necklaces, boots, gloves/bracers, weapons, shields, cloaks and helms. I see nor problem with implimenting some sort fo system that gives some srt fo penalty for switching out wearables. It does get abused a bit, and is in line with standard...

Youc an also use a download manager such as GetRight.

The problem with hide in plain sigh is that it is coded improperly. It requires no shadows to use, in PnP it is a requirement.

If that has already been stated, move along and ignore. I'm too busy to read all 6 pages...

this forum looks a lot like Dasaria forum? just wondering if it's the same builders or dm:s working here as well? Seen one persons quote here that rings a big freaking bell ("It's mercy compasion and forgivenes i lack, not rationality") dont know if it's the same person, but it just kinda stuck whe...

As always Do NOT update NWN until we say so




~S

Yes, it changed. I always thought it was silly anyway, taking an entire minute and all i did was swing once? Right. ~S Not that it really matters, but it wasn't just one swing, it was a series of "moves" that resulted in one chance to have an effective attack (or more at higher levels). Best regard...

Dirk Cutlass wrote:To add to the confusion I noticed that some of the newer spell descriptions (i.e. from HotU) appear to be given in minutes / level or similar rather than rounds! Ye gads whatever next?

They were probably just keeping in line with 3e, some spells in 3e are minutes/lvl.

In PnP, there are 10 rounds in a minute and 10 minutes in a turn. There are 6 turns in an hour. Just because this is the next logical question and someone will ask it, so I'm answering preemptively. Back in 1st and 2nd ed. Pnp, a round was comprised of 10 segments and was a minute long. There were ...

Elephants never forget. Yeah the same group . Was just asking if anyone had experience of them because they do appear to be a bunch of sour gits... but that's just my viewpoint.. I know quite a few of the HDM's, AMD's, and some of the former Admin who have moved on to start their own projects (TORI...

It is rather hard to compare us to ALFA. We are two different worlds, we use compltely different rulesets, and our general attitude is slightly different. For example: They use permadeath, we don't. We allow just about everyone who applies play on avlis, regardless of roleplay experience. We feel ev...

There are games that have been around for ages, have no official support and have a solid fanbase. Personally i liken NWN's future to that of MuD's, they will be around for a very very long time.

Is it just for pc's? Give me an addy or a directconnect and i'll go check it out.

Contact Silk via PM and he can work things out with you.

CR is a lie quite often, so trusting it will get you killed. The real problem is being able to see what spells/buffs a person or NPC has on them through examine, this is more telling than the broad challenge rating words given. If they are using the same way to remove CR since before SoU its more of...

I was just lettign people know that more than likely we will never update to 1.62, it had nothing to do with anything you may or may not have implied.

Look out for an official statement by a team member

And we won't ever update to a BETA patch, unelss somehtign really wierd happens.
