Yes, I love floating islands.

The fact that they move around is cool!

I've been hanging out on xFire a lot lately (my username is buckmana), besides trying on and off to get a drakan multiplayer game going. I've also been playing an MMO game called Tabula Rasa. I've also been looking for a mmo game similar to Drakan (swords, spells and dragon riding), but have had no ...

Oooh, Age Of Conan.

That's dangerous territory to venture into.

From what I've been hearing, that game is a shocking waste of an mmo.

People get bored quickly and it's ill concieved.

I'm not sure of the technical reasons behind the crashes.

But I'll tell you what happens.

1. Whenever I try to "preview" the level in the 3d window, it's blank.

2. When I try to look at "animated" objects (say, Arokh for example), the editor <b>ALWAYS</b> crashes.

I haven't seen a new level in a while.

I eagerly anticipate this one.

I want to make some of my own too, but can't get the editor to work.

This is what I did

Slow time

As soon as Rynn reaches the middle of the steps, jump!

It's hard to do, but eventually she'll stick the landing.

Well, I always did level 8 Magic with level 4 Swords.

In difficult battles, level 3 spells (used with Magic 8) can tip the balance in your favor.

Since the magic attacks are ranged anyway, who needs to bother with a bow?

It's actually quite confusing to the newbie.

To start the spell, you have to press a direction to move Rynn's hand to the "start position).

And this extra arrow move is not mentioned in the instructions.

For example, for lightning:

Up
Left
Right
Down

The up is the extra move.

Oh, that sounds so cool!

Sorry I can't help you.

I can model a little, but can't get the software to go on my computer.

I also have skills in image creation, even though they're more about moving around existing images in layout rather then original creation.

Keep me posted on this project.

I use the gamespy software and watch the servers there.

Mind you, I have to avoid some levels because they crash the game.

PM me on gamespy if you ever want a game.

No, especially if the disc is broken. You may kick yourself someday if you want to go back to it and it's no longer there. Besides, it's not consuming much memory or resources, so it doesn't hurt your computer. If I can ever get the level editor to work, I plan to make some cool stuff to share. Whic...

I prefer the Arokh in the first version.

He has distinctive features and coloration.

In the next one, he's just another red dragon.
