Hey.. some guy said 'no 2da's no tlk'.... suppossedly coz its hardcoded... well the 2da's and the tlk are the only not-hard coded things, lol

Lol, of course it's hard coded :P.  It's the same technology used in Baldurs Gate I.  It was good then because computers simply weren't powerful enough to handle all the soft-coding.  For those who have modded the Baldurs Gate series - if you wanted to add dialog, you had to do so by editing an external file.  I think that's a sign of hard-coding.  Why do you think Bioware implemented epic spells as feats instead of epic spell slots?

In any case, this SAME technology was used in Baldur's gate I - pretty obsolete don't you think?

Well at this stage it seems as if it has nothing original that would attract developers into using it.  I think I'll stick to phpBB.  Granted IceBB is new...so we'll see what they'll have in store for us.

Usually with routers, you do something called port forwarding.  It depends on the model of your router.  Have a look at its documentation, and figure out a way to port forward 5121.

Alternatively, you can make your router a DMZ.

Hi, I'd like to ressurect this forum, as it was deleted on Jan 26th.  (Don't think of deleting this...this is in the right category).

I would like to know of some great shifter builds, but mainly for PvM.  The one I'm currently using is a 22 Druid/17 Shifter/1 Monk (no ab buffs, but a nice breath attack and a few nice defensive buffs, + extended creeping doom).

Anyone else would like to contribute?

Lol, well I posted this before the godspire IP came up :P


This can be closed down.

Although as a side note, the rooq skin has this rather annoying 'Your Title' picture up...perhaps change that to 'Lucidmagic'?  :huh:

Feedback & Community / How do you like the new LucidMagic?
« on: January 28, 2005, 09:22:39 AM »
I think it's pretty decent.  A nice, gothic change.

A few comments:
1) The reddish background near the top that shows you where you are 'Lucidmagic > Lucidmagic > etc.' looks amateurish.  Perhaps some smoothing can help it look nicer.  But this is minor.

2) As people said previously, the option to change it back to the original format.

3) Fast Reply does not seem to work.

Is it just me or did Lucidmagic suddenly lose new topics from yesterday?

(I made a Shifter - Build Ideas topic yesterday in GS...and it's gone.)

GodSpire 2.0 / Godspire2?
« on: January 26, 2005, 11:27:28 AM »
That asian game, Blood Angel  would be called Jade Empire ^_^

Hmm...I really don't know whether I should get DA or NWN2.  NWN2 is just another D&D game, and frankly, I'm getting a bit bored of it :P.  DA Is a whole new concept though...but porting GS from NWN to DA seems like a harder job than porting it from NWN to NWN2.

In anycase, I'd love to see a Godspire(DA) or Godspire2 somewhere sometime.

I dunno, Mo...thats according to the description.  But I can never tell whether it actually works or not.

In anycase, I'm using Toughness, and 40 HP is not something to trifle with.

You press Print Screen, then go to paint and do Ctrl+V (paste) :P.  It doesn't actually print out a screen for you :P

Ah, well WoF isn't a problem for me.  I'm a SR Monk...so I guess I don't need Blindfight then..

Well, it seems useful according to description, but to me I haven't actually noticed any benefits...so yea..

Would Blindfight be worth sacrificing Toughness?  According to Hubba, no.  I'd like to get a second opinion.

Thanks again.

Is Blind-fight worth taking?

I don't quite understand what it does.  Does it help against hiders or against invisible opponents?

Thanks

A man walks into a bar.  He goes up to the bartender and asks for a glass of water.  Instead of giving the water, the bartender takes out a gun and points it right at the man's face.

"Thank you," the man said.  He leaves the bar.  The bartender puts his gun away, and resumes his work.

What's going on?

Hint:  The answer is very logical.  No stupid things like "it's a water gun".

PM me if you think you know the answer!  (Try not to cheat...there's nothing to be proud of if you cheat :P)

Name: some name that contains 'swift'

This guy is such a noob.  He randoms defenseless characters (those w/ no equip) and runs away when ppl try to take revenge.  He also does not listen to people's requests to stop.

No banning required, as this isn't a serious case, but somebody's gotta knock some sense into him.

CoD / roleplaying in nwn
« on: January 23, 2005, 10:12:58 AM »
Agreed, Celestial.

It's just that when roleplaying, there usually is a stereotype to follow.  So unless there is a good RPing reason for being different from the norm, people playing drows are usually evil, because D&D says so.

Legion of Sages / What you hate about mages
« on: January 19, 2005, 07:37:49 AM »
Actually, my mage can hold his own against almost anybody.  He's won every type of character before (except pure SR monks since you can't dispel the SR w/ mords or whatever).

The point is some ppl in mage vs. mage duels exploit the lack of the "Improved Combat Casting" feat, and run close to you and cast a spell.  But I'd understand if it's by accident.  It happens sometimes.

I don't know the difference between pure mage duelers vs battle mages.  My mage build is supposedly a 'pure' mage (as I have no PM or RDD levels), but he has 77 AC (and no auto-still).  Tis pretty good.  Vs. archers, I'd use improved invisibilty + warding, and hope they don't get crits.  Vs. weapon masters, they have slightly worse AB, and my fortitude save is 49 so I'm almost impossible to be dev critted.

Only problem now is that instead of Auto-Still, I'm Auto-quickened.  Should I change it to Auto-still?  Or how about Auto-Silent?

« on: January 19, 2005, 06:27:01 AM »
It sounds fair, but the problem with that is duels will end too fast.

For PvM, I made a sorc w/ total focus on necromancy, and all the monsters died w/ one wail of the banshee because it's DC 40 or something, but I digress.

I understand what you want accomplished, but as far as I am concerned, there are many other damage spells that work just as well.  Besides, those with high Relfex almost always have Evasion, and you can't BAN that as that's within a class ability.

ADD: As for Monks, they have low AB, so their abilities are hard to use.  You gotta be really lucky, or hope your opponent is a bad dueler.

Silence can also be gotten rid of w/ lesser dispel, as that has no verbal component in the first place.  So really, clerics are at a disadvantage anytime because if they want to buff first, you'd have mantle, they dispel, you mantle (or globe), etc.

Mages will always be one step ahead when dealing w/ silence users.

Back to the topic:
I am a mage myself (I think I'm pure...I've no auto-still feats and just 1 point in Epic Cold Resist..38/1/1 build), but it bugs me whenever other mages would run close to you and start casting causing you to make an 'attack of opportunity'.

Yea, read my title.  I've been looking through some threads and I noticed people talking about a fake Godspire server.  Does anyone know the direct connection to the REAL Godspire?

(I for one am not sure whether I'm in the correct one now   :P )
