Gorth

I think Purgatorio is an Aussie... and possibly an evil language fascist!! Like metadigital!! But ... I like Australian slang! You drongo! Mate, you should try spending some time down here... :D I thought you were a Belladonna fan? I think I'll add bot programmers and virus programmers to my pet peeves.

@Both Dark Raven & Pidesco: Thanks

Just to get a bit back on topic again... Got to a point in the game that gave me a good laugh and raise an eyebrow. G'Orthagnan the dual rapier wielding, fedora wearing Duelist is on his way to the rescue... I really like this game

I actually have a third save called "Gorth" That one is used as an extra backup for Quicksave when I retire my game in progress for the night. Thats about it.

The last major issue seems to have gone from the list. Wouldn't that sort of justify build 0.8b1 ?!?

Hmm... found a strange party AI bug. Annoying until I found out that it was reproducable and therefore could be worked around. Is there an official bug submission form anywhere? Screaming, yelling and ranting at forums doesn't count My partymembers would leave their brains back in the Inn when you change party members in the wilderness, during some of the scripted encounters/party members. If you remove a member and add a new one, they will insist on acting as if in puppet mode. No toggling of puppet mode will change that until you go back to the city Happened for me in both scripted out of town encounters that I've run across so far. Anybody else noticed that, or are my party members just homesick for cheap beer and bad tavern music? :p" Edit: The workaround is not to change your party composition.

Don't you guys have some mining operatios up on Svalbard?

Yes, the best Star Wars games aren't on the list Of course they are silly, K1 and K2. Once upon a time in a galaxy far away, Lucas Arts made not only games, but great games How can you possibly compare the Kotor games to the goodness that is the x-wing/tie-fighter games?!?

A genuine idealist I just went shopping for some crackers, gruyere, grapes and a bottle of Merlot. Preparing to play NWN2 all evening/night :cool:

Yay, finally got my prestige class. After working a bit in the city of Neverwinter, I got my duellist rank, after 7 ranks of ranger. I even managed to find a fedora along the way. So, with Fedora, the blue cloak of the city watch and dual wielding rapiers, even D'Artagnan will go green with envy :D

Come on guys, only 1 major and a mere 60 minor issues before 8b1

It's Ok to vent a bit every now and then, if that is what it is, and people cool down after the venting Just out of curiosity, how does it make the game unplayable? I didn't have a widescreen available when I played the game (and I played it alot :"> ) Does it distort the screen, or does it just look odd with big empty spaces on the sides? I'm asking because I use a (widescreen) laptop these days and intend to reinstall the game once the TSLRP is finished.

Thanks I do put some effort into not selecting all the "black boxes" in the forum :cool:

I think it is talking about Kotor2, not NWN2 >_

First impressions from a NWN2 n00b >_ Summed up: Having great fun >_ I'm playing on a laptop and crossed my fingers, that it would run. It did, without any major trouble. It didn't like the dynamic shadows, but that was about it. Not sure how to estimate framerates, but it runs as smoothly as a politicians election lies. I don't get it what all the whining about the graphics is about, my only complaint there is the walk/run animations which honestly suck. I noticed that in Kotor2 too (Kotor1 had nice walk/run animations). I decided to do a "test run" first, created a warlock and played until finishing the tutorial and the first "dungeon". I got my first two party members (and I already want to strangle one of them, kudos to a well written character, she really *is* annoying). The dwarf on the other hand is a pretty good conversationalist... if he would just stop talking... >_ I can't really say anything about music and sound as laptop speakers just doesn't do it any justice. When I finish building my new pc, I might be able to enjoy it in 5.1 As for rules/combat/difficulty/game mechanics etc. I'm not really entitled to an opinion. I never really played PnP versions "like it was intended to be used". That also means, I am unlikely to spot bugs, left outs, add ons, other things considered heresy by D&D radicals, 3.5 purists and other extremists. Now off to start a new game with a character I intend to finish the game with. Duellist prestige class looks like my thing... :D

Perhaps I should stop reading forums for a while... Now, I'm wondering about those emails too. I always thought it was the cab driver, being one of those who are more than what they seems, pulling the strings as a means to an end only he can fathom. Now I suddenly don't know who sent them :'(

Just started playing NWN2. Runs smoothly on my laptop. Only 1024x768 as more is wasted on the small screen, but otherwise most effects cranked up, except shadows. For some reason it doesn't like the fancy shadows. Doesn't slow it down too much, but it creates some ugly artifaces. Currently having a blast, finishing the tutorial and getting my first genuine partymember. A shame I couldn't keep whatshisname wizard from the tutorial. He was quite hilarious, reminding me of the holographic doctor from one of those Star Trek TV Series I once saw a few episodes of. I sense a conflict of interests looming in the future... work vs. nwn2

I think there might be some minor differences in the content of the limited edition around the world. I found one on the shelf of a store today and bought it. I had the game dvd, manual, art book, two rings and a cloth map (yes, cloth) Now I've just have to find the time to install (and patch) and play the thing :">

Well, they do, but sheesh it's crappy. It really shows, that there has been no competition for Telstra. It's their terms or no terms...

Apparantly, Australia is part of the US then Looked like Unreal Tournament meets Starsiege Tribes. Edit: Perhaps "Outside the US" means Canada and Mexico?

I don't really know which is more fun... people who writes bots that pretends to be human or people who treat bot created posts like they were written by humans

I'm sure the bots programmer will appreciate it... if he ever were to actually read the forums that is

Presumably, it's the strength of your personality that does the trick. Hm... Just trying to envision the above... doing skill checks vs. Bluff, Persuation and Intimidate for Turn Undead Cleric: "Ok, you ugly pile of worm eaten crap, are you going to lie down and be dead again now or do I have to take you apart at the joints and carve my initials on every single one of your bones with a spoon?" Skeleton (failing will check vs. bluff): "Ehh, Ok " Perhaps Charisma is better
