Something's still wrong with the ZAP² coefficient. More research required.

Lar :
ZAP=ZOEP.ZIP²
Aha, it's the ZIP that's corrupt !!!

Marian :
Actually he quite normal...compared to the other days.

Who cares anyway, he pays the disk quota.
Goemoe :
Well,

Arhu :
I want my money back! Nothing happened. Nothing at all. I got myself a copy of that all so praised button, and installed it to the deepest den of my harddisk to be undisturbed when I decide to let it dive the universe into the void. Nothing!
I hammered the button like a crazy sewing machine and as hard as my small paws were capable of, but I couldn't make this stupid little button suck the world!
And now my mouse is broken, and I don't have something to play with anymore. (Certainly that was too much for it. *sigh*)
I guess you have to work much more on your ZAP button. I haven't even heard the ZOEP, after my continuous tries... All that got zapped was my mouse. Silly button, ho ould ant to use it if it can't zap anything at all?? he.. Hey look! No I broke my too! ahhh!! Damn ap button. ll it is good for is driving cts cry. See? nd hve lso gone! I hte tht P button!!
(Mybe my copy was dmged someho? I hope you ill releseneversionsoon,Lr!)Meo...rhu

Er, well Zap World was licensed to big M, and they actually asked for this kind of non-functionality. It was a lot of hard work, but I managed it. I actually made something that raises anticipation, and does nothing, but then nothing at all. Now I just have to make sure it crashes regularly. And it's got multimedia bits in it too. Just like the specs of the beloved operating system. It's cool, no ?
Lar
Alrik Fassbauer :
Maybe he did ZIP too many files on his PC ... ?!

I think he prefers to ZAP them...

I once owned a candy box that was literally filled with little tidbits. Actually these tidbits were filled with more multimedia bits than today's word processors: You could play with them, you never knew what was in them (ah, a glimmering red package, what can it be), hence they surpised you, then you could put them into a glass of milk, and you could even eat them!!
Long live the candy dandy!!

FOR THE RECORD
Lar :
For the record, I set things straight with major fatal considering his starcraft claims. I believe the word I'm looking for is pulverized. Actually, we used me playing against fatal to show the artists the explosions in Starcraft
Lar
major fatal :
Guys its horrible, its uttermost terror, damn man there seems to be a dopphleganger of me who is going to my work and impling h'es me, even my brother dont see the difference, its horrible!!! what can i do??? help my someone!!! All the good i have done shall be in vain!!! (among other things he managed to think looking like me that he could whin of swen, offcourse he loosed, missing the high qualitys i possess thats normal!!) So now again i have to put right what the dopphleganger sqrewed!
but the light will bring unjustice to the surface!
Lar :
Try it dude, but this time when you lose, it'll be cleaning the office instead of a red bull
Lar
Goemoe :
Hmm...
I somehow get the feeling you guys are playing starcraft only to implement all ideas and memories you encounter in our peaceful lovely Divinity ... (yes our; it is for us, didn't you know that?)
I really don't want to find any Zerg or Protoss while I do some services to my master wizard...
Did you understand what I mean ?
Goemoe
Dante :
And now they are talking elsewhere about eggs, hatching into critters... not long before a mighty wizard having a spell against these critter eggs starts greeting you with "en taro adun"...
Lar :
Why didn't I think of it ? Why didn't I think of it ? Why didn't I think of it ? Aarrgh, why didn't I think of it. Consider it done
Lar
Is this the beginning of the idea of the egg-bombs featured in <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" /> ? I don't know ...

SO WHAT ARE WE BUSY WITH ANYWAY ?
Lar :
Hi all,
Doing a full recompile so I got some time on my hands. This is a small update on what the current state is of Divinity:
While the gameworld is one big land, there are three distinct parts that can be isolated, geographically. We are working on the three parts simultanously, but graphicwise we are about ready with the first part, with a large piece of part 2 in progress. Currently we are working very hard on finishing the implementation of part 1, meaning that we would like to be able to say quite soon that part1 is ready. We suffered some delay, approximately three weeks on part1, and that's why we're being so silent, as we're trying to catch up. All screenshots so far have been from part1, and there's a lot you haven't seen yet, for the simple reason that the editing only started last week or so (Hence our delay). This is the first time we thoroughly edit a piece of the world, and during that phase several uglly little problems showed their head, and that's what caused our delay.
Still, we're well on our way finishing part1, and then we will truely be able to tell just exactly how good this game will be, as for now even for us that is an unknown. There's a lot of cool stuff, but most of these things are isolated, and within the next weeks we will for the first time be able to say how all of that holds up when it is integrated with one another. Obviously we hope it will be as cool as we expect it to be
When we're ready with part1, I hope we will be able to stuff this site with info at a very fast rate, but for now, please understand that the information flow might be a tad slow.
Ok, build's ready. Let's see how those shadows behave
Lar
Arhu :
Hey Lar, thanx for the update.
>>Let's see how those shadows behave<<
Aye, let's see! *giggle* yeah!
Meow...
Arhu
EvilRussianScientist :
SUCCESS
Goemoe :
Shadows, hmmm?
Don't tell me they are boneless skeletons with an once again improved AI...
Thanks for the info though
Goemoe
Lynn :
Wow Eve, I'm amazed ! You've found your way back to here
Anastasia :
Hmmm... a 3-week-delay. Anyone volunteering for taking bets on a Q4 instead of Q3 release yet ?
Decado :
I wouldn't be surprised if this game was delayed to 2001.
C'mon, who can think of a decent sized CRPG in recent memory that wasn't at least a half a year late?
Besides Fallout 2.
Lar :
We're trying

SOMETIMES THEY'RE FUNNY ...
Lar :
The npcs I mean. There's this little cat, kitty be her name, who can take up an affection for the player. Somehow kitty's alignment got completely mixed up, and to make things worse, kitty for some reason had relatively high stats. The results ? Kitty hates other animals. She becomes all fluffy and purry when she meets humans, lizards, elves or dwarves. However, when she meets cows, pigs, rabbits, boars etc... she becomes a mean lean killing ball of death. I just walked through Aleroth with kitty in my trail , and this was the animal liberation front's worst nightmare. Not a single animal survived kitty's onslaught
What happened ? Well, kitty has a distaste for rats, so the idea was that when kitty sees a rat, she goes after it. For some reason though, rats were categorized as being of the same group as all the other animals, meaning that after the initial killing of all the rats, kitty suddenly thought all other animals were rats too. And then you wonder why RPG's take so much time to develop
Lar
Tutamun :
I wounder who has tought her to do such nasty stuff....
Arhu :
Yeah, I'm wondering too.

I always thought that rabbits were the ferocious animals of nature (Search of the Holy Grail).
TheSchnibble :
Hey, Dante, that cat sounds a lot like your kid...
Dante :
Uhuh, and who's kid did a see at the same age using the chainsaw on the head of his little sister? Well, Schnibble? What about that?
PS: for the less informed people: it was a plastic chainsaw version without moving parts and it were the high days of DOOM II, but nevertheless...
