    Ha ha, Shiningted...Please don't die on us, or the official release would never happen. :)

    When I said I read Krunch's post, I was referring to the lizardman paintings post. Sorry if I miss-led you, I know your hands are full tracking all the status reports. I will keep my posts on topic. ;)

    <Ted puts gun in mouth and cocks trigger>

    I know you were refering to the Lizardman painting, and yet still I am recommending you go back to the cave and look!

    Its almost like I'm telling you to go and look at the painting, isn't it :chairshot

    The painting is an area above the chest.

    Ok, ok...I get it. :)

    When y'all said back door, I looked for a door, :errf: heh heh

    Finally, I realize how the picture almost resembles a map.

    This horse is dead...I shall beat it no longer.

    Hallelujah! :poke:

    The sad part is, once i fix the Lizardman dialogue tree and since I've added something similar to Lord Axer, this will all become practically irrelevant. It will still help parties who don't take the quest and get to the Lizardman / Thorp area from the Spider Queen, I guess.

    Welp, played a new game and I still cant get the "in their footsteps" quest to finish.

    If i walk down the stairs in the cave, one of two things occur.
    1) they attack on sight.
    2) One of the head lizard men (NOT the king) opens a dialogue with me, but since i cant speak draconic, they attack.

    Now i found that IF i sneak a thief down next to the king, than inniate dialogue with the king on my own,I can get the story to continue and get the info about how they sent the adventurers off to kill the dragon.
    This is the ONLY way i can seem to get the king to speak with me.

    I follow the story, choose to believe him about the adventurers and the dragon, and go off to kill the dragon.

    The dragon attacks my party on sight.I kill it, pick up all the little gear scattered in the water i can find, and fail to open the chest after i unlock it.(oddly, the chest doesnt seem to realize its been unlocked, as i can unlock it mutliple times,but can never open it .I know, known bug about the chest.)

    But there it is.I never get confrimation of any kind that the scatered loot is the adventurers. or that they were eaten/killed by the dragon.
    No one (including the guys in the pub at night) seems to acknowledge in anyway that ive found out what happened to them.

    And i cant finish the quest.

    Damn, those walking-soon-to-be-boots cheated me, cos after getting them the dragon head, they run off (they give me the egg) and they take everything, no reward tho...hum, i'll check the swamp then.

    @Tkobo:

    Again, look in the lizardman cave...click on everything strange. As for the chest, look in the demo bug, i've posted how to solve the chest problem in the *212 post.

    If you don't speak draconic, think on someone who can...an arcane student? A traveler? ;)

    The Dragon's previous meal was NOT the missing adventurers.

    I found another way around the problem which I also had. Go through the giant mass of trees which comlpeatly cover the screen, the ones left of the problem area. Worked for me.

    Yeah: I am definitely making that tree a lot smaller in the next patch to reduce these problems. btw...
    You can always get someone who knows Draconic? Someone who racially knows Draconic? Or, since bonus languages are a factor of Intelligence, get someone with a very high Int score? Though I know high Int and speaking Draconic usually go hand in hand...

    Hi Ted
    For some reason I can't get to the Deep Swamp. I found the secret of the Lizardman's cave, but there is nothing on my worldmap that I can click on to travel to the Deep Swamp. I just emailed you the details.
