    I just tried Chris Bedoes mod, and got to shrouded hills. I must say i'm not too impressed, the spelling errors are insane and really make the game feel dirty. Secondly, the new backgrounds are farely stupid (spelling errors excluded) and really take me out of the roleplaying fantasy known as Arcanum. These are just the two major glaring mistakes. I'm sure i'd encounter more as the game progresses, but fortunately for me, i'm not going any further with this mod.

    And the inside of the building you start at instead of the crash site is so dark. I've got my screen brightness set to a level that reveals sufficient detail in most games without being hard on my severely-nearsighted eyes, and the interior was so murky that it took me five minutes to locate that Althea chick the mod kept insisting I hadda talk to before I could leave.

    try changing your monitor setings and not the ingame menu slider.
    you guy's are being far too harsh in my opinion, it adds so much more to the game( hell, it got me playing again after almost a year), give it a chance, yes the spelling mistakes are kinda bad, but, i ended up looking for them so i could have a good chuckle at them, there's not that many any way that i can remember. and the ending's a lot more fun with two bad guy's you can kill, if your good enough that is, the second one took me three attempt's. and i think you even get to hear chris beddoe's voice.
    but can anyone answer my questions please, surely i can't be the only one here that's played this?, christ i hope not.

    not to mention all the extra weapons....... there might be a certain someone who'd be interested in the SECOND bengellian scourge, bows are better, much better. a few new guns my favs, the silver terminator.

    I think on chris bedoe's site he has coordinates for the new locations, i'm not sure tho cuz they are 4 and 5 digits. heres what's on his page anyway:


    These new places are on the world map



    {82}{79076, 104224, 0, 0 /Haunted Village/A village with population zero./Radius:25}

    {83}{79584, 67752, 0, 0 /Trading post/A small trading post./Radius:25}

    {84}{59105,65251, 0, 0 /Vaselan/A small abandoned village near Tarant.}

    {85}{77928,46912, 0, -5 /House/It seems that nobody owns this house./Radius:35}

    {86}{36123,52704, 0, 0 /Dangerous village/A very dangerous looking village./Radius:60}

    {87}{38602,61953, 0, -5 /Half-orc village/Non half-orc are not welcome ./Radius:50}

    {88}{89577,84443, 0, 0 //Safehouse of the bank robbers/Radius:-1}

    {89}{76800,76841, 0, 0 /The unnamed staff/Avoid this place unless you intend to die/Radius:5}

    {90}{41083,77014, -17, 20 /The secret ?? level/You sense very powerful magick here and a smell of flesh ?/Radius:20}

    {91}{64030,65230, -120, 0 /Undead city/Meet the dead /Radius:4}

    {92}{77909,70297, 0, 0 /Lucky Altar/Its seems that here you can gamble for items /Radius:50}

    {93}{90036,84152, 0, 0 //The secret exit from Shrouded Hills /Radius:1}

    {94}{44305,66033, 0, 0 //The Old Prison/Radius:-1}

    {95}{42672,54374, 0, 0 /The Arena/Ready for a challenge ?/Radius:-1}

    {96}{36897,76962, 0, 0 /Sewers/Avoid this place if you are weak./Radius:-1}

    {97}{68884,46885, 0, 0 /Shady Grove/A small wood cutter's hamlet/Radius:50}

    {98}{100917,47712, 0, 0 /Sherwood Forest/This place is NOT for roleplayers.Added by ChrisB./Radius:50}

    {99}{47591,48550, 0, 0 /Portal/Opens only for the Master/Radius:50}

    However there several other places that are not on the world map and have been added as well.

    Like sewers in several cities that did not have sewers before

    I was talking about my monitor settings, and why would I wanna fiddle with the slider when I had no problems seeing stuff in the regular game? (In case you missed it, I've got my monitor settings exactly where I want them, 'cause anything brighter or dimmer hurts my eyes, and I'm damn well not changing them for any mod, no matter how good you think it is. Besides, the screen brightness (or lack of same) wasn't the only reason why I hated it.)
