    Wow, you know Arcanum IS played with the keybourd mainly. If you don't know the shortcuts you are copleatly lost. Thre is a reason I was bragging aboout the space bar not functioning righ in the other topic I found.

    Yes one way to break objects is to hold alt and press attack on the object. If you just want you followers to smash an object just hover the mouse pointer over it and press F2 (attack command). Just don't tell you don't know the command keys. They're F1-F6, most notable F1 -Walk, F2-Attack and F5- Back Off. Altenativly you can only tell a specific party member to attack the given object.

    And I must say here that attacking objects severly damages your weapons. However if you get around to using more advanced tech weapons they don't damaged. The Pyrothechnik axe reduces a 100 HP door or chest in an average of 2.5 hits.



    And btw Chuck Norris-??

    First of all; "aboout", "righ", "copleatly", "Thre", "keybourd", etc, are not words. Yes they are very similar to some actual words, but they still aren't.

    Second of all; "And btw Chuck Norris-??" You cheap, little midget-whore. You don't know who Chuck Norris is? Find out. Now!

    I'm just going to think that he didn't read the GD threads, and so he doesn't understand what the connection is between the Alt key and Chuckie-Chuck.

    And just because I want, I'm going to assume he's a he.

    Or right click on the follower portraits. Now doesn't that sound simpler?

    Chuck Norris cannot be confined to a mere single key, the keyboard must be remade in his image. That or he has a fight with Charles Bronson, either way I'm happy.

    Ok, Charles Bronson I can agree with, but Gregory Peck? Clint Eastwodd owns his ass.

    What, there has to be a connection?

    Look at his earlier work, he beats up Nazi after Nazi, or in 'The Gunfighter' (1950) his best friend is his gun, Eastwood may be good but his gun isn't his best friend.

    Plus Maddox, who whether you like him or not is an authority on the subject of manliness put Peck at No. 1 on his Tribute to Real Men.

    Peck has unfortunately been typecast as Atticus Finch, while TKAM was a great movie it does not give you the excuse to ignore Peck's early contributions to anti-nazi war films.

    Its a subject I debated at length with several friends for many more months than it should have gone on for, we never actually resolved it, the semester ended.

    That video just oozes Alt key goodness.

    --EDIT--

    666, Now I don't want to post anymore, maybe if I just start editing all of my old posts...

    Christopher Walken. *shudders* He's corporeal might.

    But Dirty Harry kicks ass.

    Gotta say though, Charles Bronson lost some of his oomph when he got older.

    MMmmmm....redemption. I'm kindof surprized that the latter half of your post is relatively free of errors, while the first few sentences appear to be one big typo. Besides, multitasking is not an excuse; it's life.
