Will do right now. I'm hoping I don't have to reinstall to figure it out.

[duke o' york]

Wootly. I don't know when I'll get round to actually starting, because I'll need to get the HotU disk I lent to my friend back, download the CEP, and there's a heavy weekend of football this weekend.

[DrSpike]

Try the details in the mail I sent asap, so we can check them.

[duke o' york]

Sorry, but I've got to 5% in downloading the CEP (obviously more by the time I've finished typing this out ), and don't have any of the NWN discs here, so I think that might be a problem. I don't know - your mate gets a new PC, so you lend him some of your favourite games but then need at least one of the discs to play.

Why isn't Jamski posting helpful hints?

Honestly, Australia may have a cricket team full of lumpen hoofers, but they're not entirely backward! I mean, some of the most enlightened specimens even post here.

[DrSpike]

I thought Jam was back already.

[Unspeakable Horror]

Was and left again

He is moving somewhere IIRC.

[DrSpike]

How dare he let moving stand in the way of gaming!

Fingers crossed that I should step out into Folderol this evening.
I finally sorted out my broadband problems yesterday - and the help desk were useless (), and then got as far as creating a character, but it told me that I couldn't connect because I don't have one of the CEP .haks that I clearly have got.
I'll try again this evening, having a new copy of the .hak installed, and see how I go.
Hilariously, it seems that while we were at Spike's house, Jamski left his log-on details on my laptop, so it asks me if I want to join as Jamski. A guy could do great things with mod powers.

I've been playing Folderol a bit. I've got my cleric up to level 20 but am having a hard time finding decent things to kill to level her up faster. I gave up on the third codex quest. How do you get into those catacombs?

If you have Jam's details you don't need your account back.

[duke o' york]

That wouldn't fit with roleplaying my character.
Besides, you should be spending your time helping DaShi.

[edit] Damn! The name and password you gave me don't work Spike. I don't suppose I can use Jam's log-on and then switch.
Although I am tempted to create a nothing character on Jam's account. In fact, that's what I'll do! I've always wanted an ogre mage.
He can delete it when he gets back on line.
I'm really sorry Jam, but the pull of Folderol is so strong....

[duke o' york]

Well I played for a bit, and it is fun. Curiously, I somehow managed to get to level 2 before even getting off the boat.
Now Jamski has 2 new characters on his account. The one I used the other day, when I was told I didn't have the CEP hak (I had it, just in the Hotu hak folder, not the other one. ), which will be my proper character: Jacqueline Ducqorc, an elven spellsword in the making, and Professor Moriarty, an ogre mage who has a DEX of 7. I misread what you got the ogre bonuses in, so he's got quite a high CON, with the +4, and that atrocious DEX.
The most exciting news is that I was nearly killed by fire beetles in the forest, and only survived by legging it out of the area, and that my fishing pole broke. Bugger.

I've mailed another possibility.

[duke o' york]

I started using the proper character just after making the last post above, and started killing some nettles. The nettle burglars are pretty tough for a level 2 fighter, although I think I may have done too well in the first fight with them, because they seem to have loads more HP now.

Thanks for the mail Spike, I'll try that at home this evening then.
