I was going to say actually that the sound design in this map
especially is fantastic. I just wish I could give you more for all
your fantastic work than observations and thank you's.
I do have a question though:
The mage can memorise to get spells back and the cleric can meditate.
Is there a way to restore nature?
I've been playing around in the introductory maps to help get a better
understanding of the characters for when I have to use more than one
of them at a time.
It's kind of amusing to me how sometimes I end up winning easily and
other times losing spectacularly!
I feel so sorry for the wolves in the ranger hunt level... has anyone
managed to keep them alive?

Hi Ron,
That's Ok, I finally got a hold of it.
The user guide add on helped, thanks for writing that.
I am really honored your friend put their creative mind to work on the map
pack.
I had to laugh, they had to take Skorg's old room and the cheap Inn owner
hadn't even bothered to clean the blood off the floor. That was perfect,
grin.
I got the impression that the three characters come from a Japanese anime,
they had that feel to them. Was it inspired by something like that or am I
totally off the mark?
I saw an anime called all purpose cultural catgirl nuku nuku back in the
day.
Jinx kind of reminds me of that character.
So Ron is Jinx's father, but she has two fathers. Does that mean
genetically
or one is a step father? I wasn't sure. So Jinx's mother is a psycho, got
it,
grin.
If your friend continues, I am interested in finding out the mystery behind
the quest power. It seems like a different magic that is alien to the game
world. That seems like a real neat idea for a , well, a quest, grin.
The scifi thing threw me a little, wasn't expecting that. I wasn't really
sure why any of the characters are on the planet. Did a space ship
break
down? Are they following an emergency beacon? Did they detect a source of
quest energy which made them want to check it out? I was just curious .
There were a few things that I noticed while playing.
The extra heated damage effect had a few things I want to point out.
The additional_description script flag doesn't need underscores. That is,
unless they wanted it in there for some reason. Screen readers and voices
and
I suspect braille probably output differently, but when I play the
underscores are all announced.
On the other hand, the friendly_name= flag doesn't recognize spaces. I
don't
know about anyone else, but I tend to make each word capitalized on the
first
letter and run them together. They still sound good, at least, to me, but
again that could all be personal preference.
I think the heated blade might use the fire damage type due to the intense
heat of the blade, but that's just my opinion.
Also, Ron Hoke needed a divine point. The point being that this kept the
Smite Evil from being used a billion times a round. Although, it was nice
blowing ogres into tiny bits, grin.
I would also change the names of the two assassins. Kanjo is actually what
I
named the one assassin, so it could be recognized later. Unless your friend
is making them assassin clones, which sounds like an adventure in itself.
I wouldn't mind the descriptions getting a bit of editing .as if I was any
good at editing myself, but still it is what it is. I struggled with some
of
it while reading.
The huge number of attacks was also a real workout. I think each character
could act 8 or 9 times at least per round. The fight was actually super
easy.
I know it is an introduction map, so that isn't a big deal. I tend to make
things too hard.
I don't think the mod would work in the map pack as I have it. The balance
and feel are too different for me.
However, as it's own storyline, or even a paralell storyline would be neat.
I
would like to see your friend make more mods or build a storyline from
this intro map.
Also, I wanted to send some links for fantasy sounds. These are some new
ones
that have spell castings, a bit of weapons, not a lot, and other sounds
that
might be useful if he or she is willing to pursue the story they got
started
on. I am always getting sounds so I am more then happy to share with other
map pack makers.

If you are still having trouble
I will check the website where I have the link with that it gave me for it
I can test it to see if it actually works like I'll bring it in the address

If it still doesn't work I'll check with customer support to see what's
wrong

Hi I finally finished the ad on user guide
You will find it in the map pack folder itself
You might find it incomplete
There are miss spelled words some of them are misspelled on purpose
It is my first attempt at a user guide
I tried to make sure I have everything in there that was added in and maybe
more
There is pieces of information in there that I have copyright on
Thanks to my friend but I don't mind if you use it for this map pack if you
choose to
If you have questions please ask
I will do my best to answer any question or I will drag them out of my
friend
Here is the download link

Hi my friend tried your map pack here
He has decided to make add-ons to your map pack and wants me to send it to
you to take a look at it
He said he would like your opinion on what he put together even if you
don't
put it into your actual map pack
I thought I'd ask before I tried to send it to you . Ron

Hey all,
It is not finished, but here is the fantasy map pack.
Thanks to carlos I made some changes, which will make the maps more fun.
The map pack features a more dungeons and dragons feel. Mages hit M to
memorize their spells at the start of the encounter and clerics do the
same.
The cleric needs his holy symbol to cast, but the mage can memorize
spells
and switch out the spell book. The spell book oes provide her with very
valuable skills that allow her to push the limits.
Mages, once they cast a spel, that spell is gone for that encounter .
There
is a chance of failure in casting.
The cleric can reuse spells, even if he fails a casting. He has spell
slots
however, and so can only cast a certain amount out of each level of
spell.
There is a lot of spells. Try them all out.
The game features randomness, so be prepared for that.
The magic is the big concern. If it sucks, then I may have to shelf this
one
till I can work something else out.
So please tell me about it, I am kind of hanging till I find out if this
is
worth finishing.
One last thing. The jump skill is accessible to characters with leather
or
less armor. Those in heavier armor have to take the armor off to use
the
jump skill. The jump skill will pop up when chain or plate is taken off.
Link is below.
