    Well see there?

    Speaking of a vote of confidence---

    If I'm understanding correctly; the guy that did the new content (verbonc) and the fellow who started the keep/ borderlands -

    Thats quite good company; eh?

    Now that you folks have collectively made Troika's engine ... work :)

    I hope even more goodness comes out of it!

    I suppose a snowball has more chance in a certain Node; than there is of Atari recognizing Co8's efforts and actually publishing it?

    Of course, if you want to go back and do it all by hand, Al...

    Admittedly I did remake my goblins so they dance: but that was the whole point.

    Hey i know I am just the random passerby newb nobody but that caught my interest...

    Your Goblins.. Dance?...

    Are you talking about a spell or is this an inside joke?

    The only thing i remember about the goblins in KotB was that they use cover; and that if u annoy them too much they pay off an ogre to beat your butt.

    but i assume you didnt mean dance on their grave...

    I was refering to the goblins in Desperate Housewives that were originally spawned using a spawner as above, but I later remade as proper .mobs so they could dance, which was the whole point of them being there in ther first place - they were having a party and making too much noise.

    I also changed them to halflings, since they shouldn't really have been goblins. They were only goblins, because only goblin models can dance in ToEE (that I have noticed. not counting dancing spells).

    Re: Gnoll Caravan question sorry

    See?

    sorry my newbness got me.

    actually i'm glad it did because that bizarre tangent was actually interesting

    but i had mistakenly associated you as the KotB guy and so mistook that as a reference to the gobbies there.

    So thi sis stil interesting - why do the goblins dance? thats an animation from the original game?

    Sigh.. am i going to have to load it up again and look for dancing goblins?

    You had Dancing Goblins in Hommlett?

    someone did say your mod added humor. Were they perchance shouting for SPAM SPAM SPAM?

    Allyx -

    I understood. All I was saying is that the fix doesn't have to be that complicated.

    These Spawners that show up just need to be turned off or destroyed. That only takes a line or two of script. Five minutes of work at most.

    You are abolutely correct that it could also be done with ToEE World Builder, and you could get a LOT better stuff with the ToEE World Builder as you can add in all the bonus stuff that wasn't possible with a spwaner.

    The thing is that that takes a lot more effort.

    The simple solution is to just fix the spawners.

    Both ways would work of course.

    And as you correctly point out the long way allows for all kinds of goodness.
