Tacticular Cancer: We'll have your balls

  1. Having trouble staying logged in? Note: We are rpgcodex.NET not .COM. Trying to login via .com will cause issues. Make sure you are on rpgcodex.net to login and all will be fine.

    And if the Password Recovery doesn't work (there was an error transitioning accounts during the upgrade), use the "contact us" link right down the bottom right of the forums and harass us about it. Include your account name and its e-mail address (or whatever parts of it you remember).

    "This message is awaiting moderator approval": All new users must pass through our moderation queue before they will be able to post normally. Until your account has "passed" your posts will only be visible to yourself (and moderators) until they are approved. Give us a week to get around to approving / deleting / ignoring your mundane opinion on crap before hassling us about it. Once you have passed the moderation period (think of it as a test), you will be able to post normally, just like all the other retards.

    <A href="http://nuvie.sourceforge.net/">NUVIE</a>, that <i>Ultima VI</i> replacement engine for a variety of operating systems, has updated with a nice <A href="http://nuvie.sourceforge.net/snapshots/nuvie/ChangeLog">list of changes</a>. Here's some of them:
    <br>
    <br>
    <ul><li>FM-Towns audio unpacker. We've added a new tool to extract the audio dialog from the FM-Towns Ultima 6 version. The tool takes an actors dialog file and outputs a set of WAV files.</li><li>Darkness. Nuvie now has alpha-blended darkness. You can see some screenshots attached to a post in our forum. (<a href="http://nuvie.sourceforge.net/phorum/read.php?f=1&i=70&t=70">Here</a>) We plan to support the original dithered tile darkness too but this might not be added for a while.

    <br>
    <li>Temporary objects. Temp objects are removed from the map when the player walks far enough away.</li><li>Party formation has been improved. Party members should follow the avatar more closly.</li><li>Egg support. Temporary actors are now spawned as the player walks around. Only a few worktypes have been iplemented thus far so many monsters will sit motionless on the map. We'll fix this when we implement combat.</li><li>New build enviroments. You can now build the project with Apple's XCode or Microsoft's Visual C++ version 7.</li><li>Numerous bug fixes. Too many small fixes and enhancments to list here. See the <A href="http://nuvie.sourceforge.net/snapshots/nuvie/ChangeLog">ChangeLog</a> file for a complete list of changes. :)</li><li>Added more monster types. Dragon and hydra actor types have been added. It is also now possible to dismount from horses.</li></ul>

    My, that is some pretty darkness going on there.
