Okay from a healthy computer to a not so good computer... again. The trouble is stated in this topic. Still I can work but not to the fullest of my capabilities.

[Deathsangel]

Okay, as a friend of the forum says my PC is giving me the middle finger. As soon as I go on SHS there is now (I logged it) 80% chance my computer crashes. This is me again on the laptop.

Naturally I do this while researching for MftW and voila Kirinhale dialogue file corrupted... gone all the work. I am going to buy a new computer even if I don't really have money to spend. I am so frustrated right now...

And no Tassadar haven't changed the paste yet, this as I my bike got stolen, but the weather is cool. This is not overheating problem.... only me overheating.

At least sorry fans, I will try and re-write the romance, but I knew it was nice with words... and now I hope I can live up to the quality... this is so not good for morale or love for coding/writing.



P.s. Forgot to tell, there is actually a version 2.2 of Ariena.... even the USB sticks however, or better to say the transfer unit, is against me - dissallowing me to upload via the laptop. It will come

Well, I graduated the 24th of June which was very nice. Unfortunately the job that was in mind has had found no possiblity of funding, thus I am job hunting at the moment.

This besides the lasting computer problems, for which I ordered some stuff, but to which I have not yet had a message it has arrived.

RL... the ups wouldn't be fun without the downs

[Deathsangel]

Well, the ordered stuff arrived and I applied the new paste as was suggested by one of my good friends here, but it fails. Which means a new computer is in order, though money is tight seeing I have no income.
So I will use the laptop, but since that can't play BG2 with the need of discs... it will go slower.
Apparently my down isn't going up yet

Oh well, hopefully the next report is just about the new rewritten Kirinhale romance.

[Deathsangel]

And just like that my laptop fried... all white screen. I know you normally shouldn't have laptop's on for long days, but it was all I got. Unfortunately it seems broken.
I wish I could show the photos so you know my streak of bad luck is true, because it is becoming incredible, but well yeah... I can't upload photo's via the computer on the University.
I am in search of a new computer. Expect me back in... august?

Sorry


Okay, as it still the same day.... Desperate I tried once more my old card... and I don't get it, but I don't care - this time my computer accepts the transfer. Changed all the drivers and I threw my old new card away & now I have a (don't get a shock) 32 MB video card... Yeah, but at least my PC works again.
Good huh, my perceverance

Job finding costs time, but the community is coming alive again and so those that work on the project
If for the love I had just backed-up that romance somewhere... I can't remember some of the nice text and my perfectionisme stands in the way Oh well, I'll deal with it

[Deathsangel]

Two weeks holiday now...
Modded little on BG 2... modded quite a bit on Arcanum However, that is more or less over. Yeah, I always do many things... a bit bad, but I will finish this don't worry.

Back from holiday and Kirinhale dialogue is being coded up, which I hope to finish for I get to start a job.

[Deathsangel]

I have my old friend to thank for progress on the areas
Myself being my usual perfectionist for the Kirinhale dialogue.
Nothing major... although the areas actually are , but still as promised a report.

[Deathsangel]

Just the two week report noting this time no progress, again... I ought to slap myself
Reason by the way is me desciding which job to take for the next 4 years... PhD function and all that, thus quite important. I may enlist myself on a list for a new home or else I have to do 3 hours of travel a day... (other is closer, but less in direction I want to take).

[Deathsangel]

Well, from now three hours travel time and probably going to take my notebook with me and write stuff once again... now to find time to code it

[Deathsangel]

Today was my first workday.
It was fun but my lady-boss is going to grind me good. Today I had got up at 6:30, arrived at 8:30 and came home at 20:00, after leaving at 18:15.
This is going to eat quite a bit of my time... and she made it pretty clear the laptop is so I can work in the weekends.
It is a good spot and I reckon I will enjoy it, but darn.. where am I going to find time.
I have decided to move and I have made a promise to Chronis en to you, so I will finish Kirinhale no matter what, but I rather finish the whole ordeal, but I hope I can pull it off along my other hobbies.

[Deathsangel]

Who, I am over time...
Well, all I can say is that I am coding Kirinhale dialogue and that Chronis and I are determined to still release her, as I wish to do so with MftW... I am afraid it just has become a 10 year plan. The plans are there, but my coding is simply slow and time limited, certainly with so many hobbies... In one way I would want to say sorry, but I do believe all can understand what I mean. Don't worry this project will not die, it is just going slow.

[Deathsangel]

Yeah, I know I missed a report... I changed computer, and as Noctalys can confirm, that didn't went smooth. One of my old harddisks (with MftW and BG2 (and all other games + hobbies) has given in (= dead dead (= not even allowed to format)).
Luckily I managed to safe the info for most part.
Before I go and reinstall it all, I want to buy a new harddisk put it all on there.
(Perhaps seeing if it will run with being a D - for the more skilled people, can't change my current drive as than the comp won't find windows which is on F (and C is part of D (one disk - two partitons, so I am not confident puting stuff on there))

Thus, once again... it is down to pen and paper.
That aside from the course of injection into mice... really rats, rabbits, guinea pigs are fine... but mice are too small for my hands. I am just glad it survived, another girl in the course killed hers by doing a wrong injection. *end rant on rl*

Hope to be a more regular customer here again soon (as some may have noticed I had long times of absence (due to the computer stuff))

<supports DA's efforts, thumbs up! My eeevil wwwild maaage is waiting at first level of Irenicus Dungeon...>

Thanks.
Why the long note of absence... actually I am again on the job market. I have been down a bit seeing I had to resign the last one out of mutual agreeance my supervisor and I could not work together.
That is why I have been absent for a while, but my spirit is up as well that I am planning my days again. So expect me back on a regular basis

[Deathsangel]

Well, both an Italian and a French translation are coming up for Kido.
However, it seems I will also move towards a new home at the 1st of august- moving closer to a new job.
It seems all is finally settling - Here is me hoping that means after all the paper work I can get around to all my hobbies again.

Edited by Deathsangel, 07 July 2009 - 01:28 PM.

[Deathsangel]

Okay, way way too long. Finally (almost) settled in my new appartment. The living room is still a mess though, but I trail off.
Anyways, this means I can return back to my hobbies, and as a friend said the fire for modding is burning again with in me.
I am working on a project for one of the games of the BG series. However, it is not my privilige to reveal its exact nature.
Suffice to say it has a close connection with MftW, to which I will return thereafter... 2 weeks at most.

[Deathsangel]

So, I was wondering the other day... should I perhaps post spoilers to show that the banters for Montaron, Kirinhale and Ian are indeed written and not just some fiction of my imagination?
I don't want to give away too much though.
Questions, questions. Well, at least this progress report is more in time - getting back to a normal schedule, yay!

should I perhaps post spoilers to show that the banters for Montaron, Kirinhale and Ian are indeed written and not just some fiction of my imagination?

i'd like to look at some trailers
