Would be very cool. Would also be cool if you preface type in with <elven> that only others who know that language would understand it and others would just see something like "you hear an unknown language".

I may be mistaken but didn't the crafting system posed get passed? And I also assumed it was going to come on over to ALFA2? The needed Skills and Feats are those in PnP D&D. As far as components and so forth we just need to make a package of them to be included in the base mod. As far as formul...

Ah sorry misunderstood. As for timing I'd have to say I'd reserve judgement on that till I see the new toolset. But I agree having a plan B is always a good thing.

*runs off to see if there is a plan B*

I think nearly all of us are canon buffs so if a tavern, shop, pub, inn, dungeon, fort, etc. Exists in the area it will be filled appropriately. That fact alone will make many of the areas unique. Some areas are actually fully detailed out. Well of Dragons and Darkhold have full canon specs and Berd...

I've also always played long term time as 1:1 since that is the rate that we pass change the years. Most DMs I've played with have done long term time in the same manner. The real reason for this it seems is DMs can't get all the events they hope to get done in a year done in a real year. Even thoug...

I like the haggle scenario above but yes I have to say that appraise should also be used too. Maybe appraise could be used to determine if the asking price is a fair one. Anywhere from say 95% to 100% and then you could try to haggle if you figure out it is higher than 100%.

I have to agree with this, we should minimize usage anywhere it is possible. Since this system is usually invisible to the DMs and players there is no reason for it to be easily readable by anyone it just needs to work and be efficient. Just my two cents I'm ussually for readablity over opitmization...

Well there is also the problem that sometimes DMs have things planned for those areas but haven't found the time to build it. Filling it with temporary content wouldn't be a solution. Honestly I have no problem with entire areas being like this there are some places PCs just shouldn't be without DMs...

DMing While Playing

So when alfa first started long long ago DMs could not DM and play. But when we started running low on players we lifted this. I think alfa was a much nicer place when people were either DMs or Players and not both. Has there been any thought about reinstating this when NWN2 starts? I think we could...

I agree after seeing the plights local databases have had in NWN1 I would not want something so critical stored locally.

This maybe a crazy idea but why not implament the actual knoweldge skills and get rid of lore all together. Make new Bardic Lore skill which = the bard's level + Int? Make some global scripts that will Id magical items with the right skills and magics cast and make appraise ID non-magical items. It ...
