Well, technically I didn't spent hours waiting, as I wasn't waiting doing nothing, I was occupied with other things. While reading the manual would be spending the time with something that won't be useful to me in the future. ;) wjp: thanks for the command. I guess that i have to substitute those fi...

> Yes, I used montage (that's why I mentioned it). No, I didn't use a batch file. It's just one command after all. It would be great if you could tell me what is that command. :) About the Command Line vs GUI issue: that's right, there are things it's more practical doing with command lines than wit...

I don't think so. It would be easier to add images I wanna join using a dialogue window, select all and execute, than writting 140+ ultima pcx names in the command line. For example. About the batch files, I wonder if those map authors used this software and, if yes, if they use batch files (that co...

Read a complicated manual just to use the program once? Nah. I hate command lines. Although I still remember using DOS, years ago...

ImageMagicks is command line based.

wjp: Gonna check it out.

Dominus: you mean this? http://www.math.leidenuniv.nl/~wpalenst ... /SImap.png

The problem is that it doesn't create a single map. It creates lots of PCX images. Is there a command to make it make a single map? If not, how can I join the files in a single one?

yeah, look good. Thanks artaxerxes!

You can find one here, although it's in low quality.

Impressive. Enought to write two or three romances.

Do you need a host for html pages? How much space do your docs occupy?

BTW, I'm assuming that the process for Serpent Isle is similar to the Black Gate, isn't it?

I know I'm abusing your kindness, but if you could show me how to setup/run that perl script, I would grateful.

Just out of curiosity, what's the mount of work in SI's translation? How much time did it take, how much text was translated? I imagine it was a very big task...

I got that file. And I'm downloading ActivePerl. Is that all I need to run le_camomille.pl?

Excelent map! Would it be possible to get a map with the NPCs?

And I must say I was expecting to run it flwlessly in my P4 2,8GHz 512MB DDR RAM, Radeon Mobility 9000 64MB notebook... That's not exactly the case, but...

Great. Already ripped and decompiled the files. Now they're readable. And if I understood, I will only have to compile it again, glue them and copy them to the patch directory.

What is the perl script for?

The problem was my CD/DVD-RW drive. I copied the CD to a CDR. Now I can install it.

I don't know how to setup mysql, php, apache and the translating program. Why do I think there could be a compiler program? Because I had to use a tool (ucxt.exe) to dump the file, so I thought maybe it would be necessary another program to revert the process with the updated dumped file... But I'm ...

Lol, just by looking at mysql's manual, I'm overwhelmed.

I guess I'll have to find an alternate way.

Can anyone answer m other question: if I save the dump file with the same name and extension of the dumped file, will it work? Or it must be compiled or whatever?

Thanks for the tip (gee... I'm a really newbie about that stuff ). I'll see if I can figure out how to setup all that stuff.

I know it. I was just wondering how practical would it be to play it with a controller.

I wonder how would you play it with a controller...
