Re the red X's, go into your internet settings and enable viewing pictures. Also, see if your running through a proxy server when you shouldn't be. For both of these things, google is your friend.

(5:53:29 PM) Syntax: I like to lay on hands you.

@coa_deloril:

When your clearing tables at work and you see a peice of paper with odd scribbles on it, and you immediately think 'PLOT HOOK'

When you resurrect threads nearly a year old.

Feels like i was reading it just the other day :(

Save you guys a bit of time, if you choose to implement.

//Written by Deloril. Simply changes the description of the PC, either appending or replacing.
void main()
{
    object oPC = GetPCSpeaker();
    string sOldDescription = GetDescription(oPC, FALSE, FALSE);
    string sNewDescription = "Lol heres a test"; //add getter from wherever you want the text to come from. (dot command, etc)
    int iAppend = 0; //TRUE will append the description, FALSE will replace it.

    //put some form of test deciding whether to append or replace, setting iAppend appropriately

    if(iAppend)
    {
        string sToApply = sOldDescription + sNewDescription;
        SetDescription(oPC, sNewDescription, FALSE);
    }
    else
    {
        SetDescription(oPC, sNewDescription, FALSE);
    }
}

Damnit, got all excitred about reading this book, not seeing the age of the posts :(

There was also Lord_Raven88.

That said, with how messed up things are atm, I wouldn't be suprised if you don't hear from a lot of us for up to months. Is how long they think it could be before services (water, power, interwebs) can be restored city-wide.

Pretty much as the subject says, as its come up a few times since I started here, figured I'd throw this together.

Invis gank indeed, check out the phat lewt in the inventory on the right >.>

So a possible fix would be to re-implement the True Rez option, and if the 0XP loss was an issue, just make a script so that when TR is used, remove a custom amount of XP. Takes away some of the "holy crap dont want to delevel again, not doing quest" without giving a free pass back to the playerbase.
