Perhaps he should visit your site?

Jamski · January 4, 2004, 10:36

Ok, my "holiday" will end tommorrow, and I'll be back to work on the game.

Spiffor's suggestion has moved my heart. I have to include it

MattH, are you stuck

Need a hint?

I already did. There's just something about poser porn I can't help but watch

Nah, I have the thermostat turned up to 76 degrees.

DarkCloud · January 4, 2004, 18:13

I'm looking forward to the list of new features

So... just double checking- we need the Hordes of Underdark Expansion to play this mod, correct? or can it run wiht regular NWN without any patches?

Good question. I still have NWN somewhere, but I sure don't have the expansion.

Jamski · January 4, 2004, 18:42

You DON'T need HOTU. But you DO need Shadows of Undernzit, the first expansion pack. It comes boxed together with the main game anyway these days. Without SOU, some scripts and textures are missing from the library, and it may not work. It may work though and surprise me.

It just doesn't sound like you to say that

Jamski · January 5, 2004, 11:17

Well, I need the OTHER HOTU

Spaced Cowboy · January 5, 2004, 11:24

You know, I'm really surprized that I'm not in this somewhere, considering how much Jamski loves me.

Jamski · January 5, 2004, 11:30

Don't worry - you are working for the Mafia - of course

-Jam

DarkCloud · January 5, 2004, 17:53

Thanks for the information Jamski

MattH · January 5, 2004, 18:50

Sorry for the lack of replys. I don't need a hint, it's just that I'm trying to go through with a level 1 character, and it's harder than I expected. That, and school started.

What about me? I don't mind being in the game.

Pick up all the junk on level 1, sell it to Asmodean, and buy some decent armour and weapons. If its still too hard, then its my fault

Jamski · January 6, 2004, 21:14

MattH, I've added you on the second level near the start. You give 2000 EXP to the PC if they need it and then run away. People can always say no if they don't think its too hard, but the extra level will cancel itself out by level 8 or so because of the Challenge Rating System.

Progress report?

Jamski · January 8, 2004, 05:14

95% finished. Beta v1.3 will come out on Friday, and assumming MattH doesn't find any huge bugs at the weekend, Apolyton Dungeon v1.0 will be released early next week.

New features :

Good and evil options, leading through to final scene (neutral still to be added, but that's the dull option)
Mafia and Moderator quests added.
Total re-vamp of early levels (to make them a bit less dull)
More sub-quests.
More HIDDEN sub-quests.
More Lollypops (everyone cheers)
Communist Zombie AI tweaked to the point of stupidity.
Some decent Rogue gear added (still need some mage gear I suppose)
Lots of 'poly posters added, including everyone who requested it in this thread.
More bloody stupid in-jokes added.

There will probably be a v1.1 (and maybe a v1.2) as more people play it and more problems are found.

Straybow · January 8, 2004, 09:24

Snubbing all us Civ2 fanatics, hmmm?

Definitely not a troll, nor a commie.

I could be a low level spam badger.
I could be a settler. With a bow.

You need ixnay in there, too. Maybe working in one of the shops making side deals?

Jamski · January 8, 2004, 10:01

Ixnay is in, don't worry. He's pretty important as well - he wants you to kill PANAG!

(and other things) - this is the GOOD option too

Straybow, you can be a settler with a bow. Done.

BTW, ROTFLMAO every time I meet Boris and MrFun

You have to hear it *snigger*

-Jam

DrSpike · January 8, 2004, 10:01

I propose he is the town's absent-minded artist, who when he isn't working walks around muttering 'bloody spam badgers' under his breath.

Edit: I see Jamski has already included him.

Nice character idea

- Just need the right name to go to it. Ixnay is mixed up in too many dialogs to root out now

Progress Report :

If I can get 11 NPCs and their dialogs/items/stuff/scripts added today, and one area, and all the scripts work and all the triggers fire... then Beta v1.3 will go to the testers tonight about 8pm GMT. If they go fast, we could get a Monday release of Apolyton Dungeon v1.0

Better stop posting and start scripting, eh?

Any more suggestions get them to me fast or they may have to wait for the first "patch"

Asher · January 9, 2004, 13:48

So am I in the game yet?

centrifuge · January 9, 2004, 17:53

This mod is going to give me the push needed to buy NWN

Can I be an absent minded chemist selling potions somewhere

Monolith 94 is an obvious "Apolyton town absent minded artist"

Ok - now closed for additions for v1.0 - any further ideas may be in v1.1 I'm running internal tests this weekend, and external straight after. Release will be soon... start getting excited.
