Don't forget about this forum Cuv. Its been a while since you've let us know how the mods coming along? Still revamping the entire dungeon?

[Cuv]

Yep:) I've got the last new area working... working the creatures for it and some specialty scripts and doors:D

The last area I may yet have to make is the outdoor area in the Hills... I intend to add a Paladin encampment there... but may not get to that.

Things are going fairly well.. although some new bugs have popped up in the latest build:( Sorting through them today.

A lot of "lasts" in that post, which is a good sign. ;-)

How much time do you usually spend on this per day Cuv? Don't work too hard.

Still waiting with anticipation

[Cuv]

I spend 10 hours per day at my real job, then come home and work on the mod approximately 4-5 hours before going to bed each night:D I dont do much else. I will be relieved when this project is finally finished, but we want it to be the best it can be... so we arent just throwing things together to rush it.

[Raistlin]

That's a lot of work Cuv, but I highly doubt you aren't enjoying making the mod I know I would.

I'm glad you aren't rushing it, but it is taking a helluva long time. Don't worry too much about perfection. The odd bug can easily be excused and fixed later. Look on the bright side, had you released it 6 months ago it would still be less buggy than TeamBG's mods. Ahh well, maybe its just my impatience speaking for me

Question about the mod. In my current game, I just killed pretty much every living thing in the Windspear Hills area, including Garren. I retreived the deed for Firkraag killing Garren in the process, only to return and disprove of the dragon's reward and kill him too. How's that going to effect RtW? I know there's an 'evil' letter you receive from Garren, whcih I'll most likely end up getting, but how do you justify him being dead?

Heh, just being annoying, sorry.

*sigh*

Epic Endeavours was virtually bugless on its release, and never required patching.
Need I say more?

Perhaps *you* should distinguish the difference between a mod made by TeamBG and a mod hosted by TeamBG. DSotSC and TDD are made by TeamBG and both were buggy as hell, not worth installing in the first place, in my opinion.

Regardless, yes, I'm looking forward to this mod as well.

Can we keep the bashing other people's mod OUT OF HERE!

*Sigh* If you don't like it, ignore it. I'm as entitled to my opinion as anyone.

The topic of this thread (or the other) isn't about other people's mods and I'm not interested in getting into another idiotic argument, so drop it. A compliment to Cuv and a post I made over a week ago are getting thrown in my face. Stow it.

[Cuv]

Peeps are certainly entitled to their opinions.

As for killing all the principles in the original encounter at Windspear... yes, you will get the evil note from Garren. Garren was a friend to the Order, so no reason why they wouldnt come back to check on him and raise him. While some forms of death prohibit resurrections in AD&D... we have to assume that you didnt kill him in any of those ways:D He is important to the plot, so he is back. But the good news is that you can kill him again... or watch him die if you like.

[Raistlin]

Hehe, forgive me for forgetting that people don't get into the habit of staying dead when you kill them in Faerun

I'll most likely end up playing it with a Paladin anyway, the first time just to get a feel for it. Then I'll have some fun with an evil character ;-)

I know you won't give much away, but can you recommend any weapon proficiencies for a Paladin returning to Windspear? I'll assume it'll be the typical two handed sword proficiency if you don't.

No matter how he dies, he's always to be raised by the (limited) wish spell, so it's not a problem. Everything can be put down divine intervention if nothing else is to be thought up.

[Cuv]

Two handed sword:D

[Raistlin]

Heh, figured. I had some crazy idea in my head (before BG2) that Paladins typically went for the sword and shield style.

Do NPC's play much of a role in the quest? Will it make a difference if I use a mainly player created party, or will I be missing out?

[Quitch]

Certain NPC's have quite a role to play, or can do, it all depends on your approach.

[Raistlin]

As mysterious as ever. Alright, I'm sure I'll be playing it more than once so it doesn't really matter the first time through. I'll be sure to pick up Imoen though because that's no secret.

Thanks Quitch.

[Quitch]

The pleasure, as ever, was yours.

[Raistlin]

Of course.

[Meleager]

Am I correct in surmising that there is no specific timeframe set for the release of this mod?
