Cool--I think it's more a case of knowing how WEIGHT works, and how you like to be organised as a modder. I'll see what I can do about explaining it in a tutorial.

But, back on topic, I think.

[HighTimeRodeo]

Rodeo, I wanted to ask with all the coding talk, if you already have the romance, the lovetalks planned out? Or are you still in the brainstorming faze

Little bit of both. We need to find a place to start the first flirt sub-menu. From then on it's another flirt menu, maybe, depending on what Epitomy has written, then a steamy scene to start with. We're working on it.

[Icendoan]

You should really plan it out, with a flow chart type thing, really. (If this is a bad suggestion, let me know, but most concepts I have come across are linear, at least temporally).

If you have something like:

Wait 3 days game time -> First talk -> [1 day GT (game time)] Second talk -> [2 days] Romance End OR LT1, and so on, and so forth, branching out as much as can be efficient.

Icen

[Kaeloree]

My suggestion would be to plan the romance itself out first. Don't do the flirts until at least half of the lovetalks are done, because then you'll have a much firmer grasp of Sarevok's voice, and it'll come easier.

[HighTimeRodeo]

All righty then.

[Thanatos.]

ohemegud. Has this thread died or some'n? I was expecting to come back to at least 9 mor pages of discussion.

But meh. How is it going?

[HighTimeRodeo]

It has kind of. My enthusiasm has shifted and I just have to kick myself in the butt to get working on it again. How are you doin'?

[EpitomyofShyness]

I'm still gonna do it, period. I just don't know how long it will take because a) coding is not my thing and I don't have time to learn it on top of college, b) I know there are people out there who would be better at writing Sarevok than I am.

I know I am not the best writer available. I know I am good, but not the best, which is just a little frustrating. I won't abandon it but let me point out that the other main Sarevok mod that was abandoned kicked along for years before it was ditched. This is definitely not a few month deal, and I would really rather have someone else do it, I am just willing to work on it because I want it to happen and nobody else seems like they're gonna do it.

So to answer, will not abandon it, but it won't happen fast. My homework takes priority.

Sara is one of the few characters I actually can can't write >_>

Cause well Sarevok is the easiest to write for(to me at least)

I would offer to take it up, but...I can't do much beyond simple coding >.>

I know exactly what you mean. At least you didn't have a penultimate mod plan that included 40+ new-from-3D-terrain-model area backgrounds...

I'll definitely keep that in mind, and thank you so much for the offer. It isn't hard for me to write him exactly, it's just hard when I know there are people who can do it better. Plus my ToB install died recently. It won't load up anymore so I can't even play it anymore.

I'll reinstall it when I have time but right now I need to go write a short skit about Sleeping Beauty in German.

See ya! Oh, and darlarosa, feel free to drop me an email as well if you want. I love to meet... Er... talk? type? to new people.

[HighTimeRodeo]

It's nice to see that enthusiasm for this hasn't died, even if mine it taking a nap.


I'll whip up a Valygar/Sarevok banter and post it when it's done. Here's to hoping I can multi-task!

[EpitomyofShyness]

*coughTHATSWHATTESTERSAREFORSILLYcough*

lol

I know but I'll need to reinstall a lot of stuff cause I play with a lot of mods plus I research which mods will and will not work and stuff like that and I want a clean install somewhere so I'm going to have to pull off the multiple installs on one computer gig I found somewhere and when it totals out it is likely going to be an entire day effort, hence my reluctance to tackle it since there are a lot of other things to do to.

But thanks for the advice anyhow.

it's not abandoned, is it? please, prettyplease, i'd really want to see it finished.
i'm not a native speaker, so it's hard to help you for me. i'm still taking english lessons. one day, one day i will be able to play bg without looking up every single word...
i've been searching for this mod for very long time, and the one on rpg dungeon was very good indeed, playing truth or dare with sarry was one of the best ideas i've ever seen. you may consider adding it to your mod too. by the way, could there be a line with calling him sarry or something like that? i can imagine him getting upset with my poor wild mage because of that
i wish you luck with your project. i hope it will be a huge success.
sorry for my bad english anyway. at least i'm trying to learn it

Your english is wonderful.

I'm trying to get back into the swing of it, but life is getting in the way.

Don't worry, we'll get it going again, I'm a circular type person. XD

Like I said in an earlier post, I absolutely refuse to abandon this, it's just going to take lots and lots of time since real life demands my attention (coughcollegeworkcough) right now.

[Erdbeere]

Hey there!

I've been wanting to see a Sarevok romance out for the longest time, and I wanted to offer my help, if you need it, maybe to help move things along a little (seeing how this thread seems to be incredibly slow-moving lately). I can't offer much except some writing and editing experience, though I'm also pretty good with flowcharts if you're still thinking of making one . Oh, and I'm a decent beta reader, I think. And I have some time on my hands.

So... I'd be really excited to be involved if you want me to be, but I won't be insulted if it's a no.
