    Are you using an old save with this?

    Here's what it should look like - with the merchant resurrected:

    I'm not sure what's happening here.
    The scene got reworked for the 3.0 release but you're still getting the original set-up.

    It looks like you're getting a layering of the 2.2 and 4.4 scenes....

    Do you have any personally-modified Arcanum.patch files in the modules folder?

    Nope, nothing but your A:WIP. Is there a way I can check that I'm using the right version? It's possible I mixed them up.

    Yeah - the book at the Crash Site.
    Since you're playing the 4.0 version, this is what it should read:

    Forgotten Places v 4.0

    My mistake, I meant that I downloaded 4.4, but it seems that I accidently downloaded an older version, though I was sure I downloaded the one in your link in you OP.

    Ok - It is possible that you did get the 4.0 version from the OP.
    When I released the 4.4 version I just renamed this thread and changed the download link.

    If you downloaded prior to 7/16/08, then you would have an older version - but that still doesn't explain what happened with the merchant.

    Something is definitely wrong, I've just re-installed and downloaded from the OP again, and the book still says it's v2.2. Is this a mixed up link or am I doing something wrong?

    I did some checking and found the following:

    1) The download link is good.

    2) A fresh unpack and install of my copy of the packed exe showed the 4.4 listing for the book.

    What's happening to you makes no sense.

    I know, I"m going to try it again and see what happens.


    Edit: Ah, now I see the problem, the game waited for me to doubt my own sanity and memory of installing it correctly before it agreed to work properly! I should've guessed!

    I did a complete re-install, and re-download, again, but this time, the book says 4.4.

    Thanks rroyo!

    Does this effect schematics? I just noticed I'm getting 200 bullets each time I use the bullet schematic..that's probably not right.
    I thought it seemed a bit much, apparently I'm only supposed to be getting 20. Never found the schematic till my recent game with AWIP

    Wayne: Glad you got it figured out!

    Gato: Man - Have you got an exploitable glitch or what?!

    You're right though, it is supposed to be only 20 bullets.

    //Bullets
    {5440}{704} //Name
    {5441}{705} //Description
    {5442}{589} //Drawing
    {5443}{15138} //Saltpeter
    {5444}{15144} //Charcoal
    {5445}{7039} //Result
    {5446}{20} // Result Amount

    The Mines of Dwarrodelf (or something) - Is it possible to enter that place? I haven't been able to find any reasonable way as of yet, and I'd appreciate a little hint (like if it's possible or if it isn't).

    Not yet. Other than that little section you can get to from the cliff, nothing has been built.

    Bullets proto contains 10 bullets, so your schematic is making 200 bullets.

    So changing that 20 to 2 would fix the issue wouldn't it? If I wanted to fix it myself.

    Rroyo...a few quickies:

    - Any chance you'll be making an item to turn those boring lumps of coal into diamonds? Perhaps if you combine the minute steamworks with something else will make three "pressure bombs" or something which in turn can be combined with a lump of coal to create a nice shiniy item?

    - How about another item idea: Rag + Metal Shavings = Gem Polish Blanket...each of which can be combined with a rough cut gem to make a full gem?

    - Is there any chance you'll pump out a new dwarven clan/village for the next version?
