Meshugger Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 Reminds me of Visa Electron. Which isn't exactly a bad thing. :D <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes it is, think of all the times you've come home from the bar, fooling yourself that "much wasn't spen"t, until you a week later notice that you can't afford paying the rent.

Rhomal Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 We should stop calling it Aurora engine now that they've made a new one from scratch. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> To be specific: a. rendering (graphics) engine has been re-written from scratch b. toolset has been re-written from scratch c. pathfinding has been re-written from scratch d. the GUI has been (mostly?) re-written from scratch.

Musopticon? Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 Agreed. Electron it shall be then. By the by, "AFAIAC" looks really awkward. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears.

Ellester Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 I was posting there. Blessed Redeemer was banned by Stanley Woo. making yet another alt account there would be pointless. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> But it hasn't stopped you the previous five or so times you've been banned at Bioware. :D Life is like a clam.

Aurora is dead AFAIAC when it comes to nwn2. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Dont get me wrong now, but despite all that, many details in the screenshots still look Aurora. Perhaps this is just because of the way levels are constructed with tiles and whatnot? But then again, the KoTORs had maps built the old way and they also looked Aurora. Well, Im looking forward to creating the best CRPG adventures humanity has ever known DISCLAIMER: Do not take what I write seriously unless it is clearly and in no uncertain terms, declared by me to be meant in a serious and non-humoristic manner. If there is no clear indication, asume the post is written in jest. This notification is meant very seriously and its purpouse is to avoid misunderstandings and the consequences thereof. Furthermore; I can not be held accountable for anything I write on these forums since the idea of taking serious responsability for my unserious actions, is an oxymoron in itself. Important: as the following sentence contains many naughty words I warn you not to read it under any circumstances; botty, knickers, wee, erogenous zone, psychiatrist, clitoris, stockings, bosom, poetry reading, dentist, fellatio and the department of agriculture.

Judge Hades Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 (edited) I will only pop in or so when they start hyping up for some big announcement. Say my two scents worth and get rebanned. Its a game, you know, but those guys really know how to hold a grudge. Then again, they never did ban my Entropic Knight account. HAHAHAHAHA!

Volourn Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 Then why did you make a new one? Perhaps they love your Entropic Knight alter ego... DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhomal Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 Gangi, who was our orginial mirror for the scanned PC Gamer screens, PM'ed me with this little bit of info. "FYI - In the first 12 hours we've had over 23,000 downloads of those screenshots. We're also now linked by just about every major NWN related site out there lol." Because when you get right down to it, it's just people helping people. :D Thanks again Gangi!
