If ya know something I don't, let me know, need the exact location of various places near the northern steppes, near rune shrine.. the one with the guardian talking demon face, the one with the talking trees - grove of something, they hate fleshlings? need help with battlefield of the dead


I also know some points where treasure chests are deep under water..

there is also a place where a dungeon is half sunken - referenced to in some line of speach..

.. if they didn't say 'however' so much, and they all didn't sound like the same guy, it'd be easier to remember it all ..
heh.. I really remember the king of rothn's final statement - was freaky - 'I place the fate of Fargrove in your hands'..
sometimes the text is different than the speach, but most of the time I skip the speach.

if ya have any questions about how to get past anything, try to describe where you are, and I'll quote your post and help you out..

Naga Gas Maze

I don't seem to be able to find my way out of the maze. There appears to be two levers which I have in the down direction. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks for all your work!!!

in the naga gas maze.. not the swinging axes?
are you in a hallway or in a room?
I don't directly remember a gas maze and two levers being associated..
any doors?

can you give me the relative locations, like.. for example
the first switch is on the north wall, the second switch is on the west wall, the gas sprayers are to the south... ?

coordinates..

I'm trying to draw a map of arindale, but I have no expirience here...
I'm not any good at judging distance, so right now it looks like crap.
Does anyone know how to get the player's coordinates out of the game?
I've looked in autoexec.kbd and cheats.kbd and saw a reference to 'debug', and I'm going to expiriment with that.

(update)
The game rewrites the kbd files per launch. Modified the keys in the exe - now even though I *know* it's executing debug and fly, there is still no effect. the debug.log isn't any more helpful, and is there even if not 'in debug mode'..
Found a series of 3 32bit floating point values relating to coordinates, X (+North, -South), Y (+East, -West), Z (+Up, -Down) @ 02F15740
Camera coordinates are at 02E31FC8, format Z X Y (?), but not relative to player, absolute position, perhaps I can do a little transform with the knowledge of these two sets to locate the offset values that indicate yaw and pitch.. which would be useful for making a flight hack, getting the direction you want to travel.. erm hum..

..starting coordinates appear to be relative to loaded map, but not size per unit (1 square unit arindale is always 1 square unit in fargrove), starting in north forest is always exactly X 1,000,000 Y 1,500,000..

maybe I should branch off of this thread and make a new one?
