The World of Avlis

I am not an expert but I do have some real experience with computers going bad over the long haul. Computers are just like cars in that they are better off operating at the same temperature and moderate power instead of turn-on, shut-off. Some of the things I did to protect my systems: * room temper...

You hit the nail on the head.

With less than 22 days until release of NWN2, who is really even thinking about NWN1 here? It seems like the transition has already started. I gotta say, this is the second most depressing thing I've read today. I am. It will be some time before a NWN2 PW can offer anything close to what Avlis offe...

There are a bunch of good PWs out there. Alangara Annakolia Catara Layonara I am not suggesting that you leave Avlis to try any of them. There are alot of other worlds out there that are not persistent as much as they rotate around a campaign ... limited DMed session play... that do roleplaying: Lan...

At least there is a chance that it might be right when its released. I would not want to get a crappy toolset.

I like Seka's version of Queen's "We are the Champions" better. It really sets me back a few years just knowing its a Queen tune. heh.

Seems there was this type of confussion when the original NWN came out. Do they ever make things easy?

I really doubt you will have a lack of volunteers for this. Too many people want to see it grow and flourish.

Its a little late, but a belated congratz. I am sure you deserve it.

You can see my post here as well: Skill Points
if you have access to those forums.

*thinks for a minute or two* There is a great museum link here for Atari. Most of my personal experience was with the Atari 2600 Getting to the Atari ST , there are a lot of links for this here including emulators for non Atari machines. (pretty sure I can't see them now from my work computer becaus...

Keep in mind that spell craft would be a cross-class skill to a fighter... meaning your maximum skill points (without gear modifiers) would be (level+3)/2 ... that would take a long time to get something close to a decent percentage versus the the "25 + spell level" using UMD.

So you see? DM's have feelings too.

But then option two: all you have to do is use the Raves forum to praise a DM ooc.

...did you ever consider the aspect of Legend? By putting time into your characer and making them well-developed, you make them a figure in the history of Avlis. The more you document what the character did, the more immortal it will become. You know, as long as the history continues you can have a...

Do I just create a differentaccount other than the one I applied under to make this easy? If you do that I think you need to first be able to release your CDkeys that are tied to your gamespy name... if you can't do that don't bother creating an account... gamespy won't let you have two gamespy nam...

Oh boy, getting in at the ground up is going to be awesome. If WFM wasn't an interesting project before, signing up just to be part of the NWN2 -Avlis creation debate should be the clincher. Hey Paco, you got something brown on your nose there... :shock: Seriously, Has the team decided on what reso...

Since the original NWN can not be converted to NWN2, looks like its just a matter of time then eh? Alright, what about when you redo Avlis in NWN2 you get a system in there that is not dependant on alignment? This seems to be an old "want" from long ago. It would require items have no alignment rest...

just so you know, the PRC download pack has as part of it, the 'Jump' skill, which can allow you to do things like jump over chasms and obstacles. To incorporate some limited type of flying ability in the context of the PRC stuff, you could just give a large bonus to that skill, for that race. I ar...

Now, can you make it work to a waypoint location or some point way far away in a different area? For instance, maybe I have a tower area with a roof on it. The character can fly from the ground up to the roof. The roof is in a different area than from where the PC started. In order to do that, you'...

You know, I think a lot of trouble could be dealth with right then and there if someone came up with a way for a player to block tells from another player. Kinda like the old days when you could /ignore 'name' and get on with your life.

Final Shinryuu Thanks for all that work... I saw it in another thread. Now, can you make it work to a waypoint location or some point way far away in a different area? For instance, maybe I have a tower area with a roof on it. The character can fly from the ground up to the roof. The roof is in a di...

Look, I love you all... really I do, but you forgot my disclaimer up there: Disclaimer: I am not looking to agrue any points about flying in Avlis. I am trying to come up with something for a pet project I have, nothing more. First, this is not for Avlis. I don't DM for Avlis. For what its worth, th...

Alright, I have a start... never thought to search for "jump" heh.

Trouble is though, that script would be a position to move to within range. I still need something that would reference a waypoint in some other area in the module.

I know this was done on another server but I have no ideas on how to script it. Basically, I was looking for some way to move character from point A to point B (over several areas) similiar to how a caravan works. Now the different here is that I was thinking of using this 'caravan' idea for creatur...
