Settings knows this, but if I had Jayose welcome visitors to the library with "codices" it would be inconsistent with the sign in front of the library. So yes, it's an error, but it's consistent. :)

Hm, the sign I see reads "Codex - Librams", so it's already doubly inconsistent.  :P

I'll happily donate this, in the .dds format and proper orientation, if it'll help. :)

Maybe they'll sneak it into .20 at the least minute, granted that including it would be a simple copy-paste. :)

Well, I heard that if it's been posted on the forums it can't be used in the game. So not that specific picture...

(Incidentally, I think it should be someone's job to post tons of really bad graphics for PS on the forums, which would, if they followed that rule, give PS better graphics.)

It took like five minutes to do, once I found the zipfile it was in. I can easily redo it, and the new version won't be posted on the forums.  :)

1) You may be technically able to change it. But you may not create the same "look and feel" because you have your own style.

2) Publicly visible contributions may find their way into the game if requested. This misunderstanding of the Atomic Blue License still throws its shadows from the past... Still, a non-public submission is preferred, it should be addressed to the art department. To get taken into the game, it just needs to be approved by the art department and game development leaders, together with an explicit statement from the author to pass the rights on it to the team. Read the 3D/texture contribution request thread.

ok, are we doing inconsistencies for the new release now too? i found one in the tutorial already. the rat Ihbaar has you kill is referred to as a 'jade clacker' in the description, but for the eval of strength it says rat, and for the race section above the description it says rat

i found a inconsistency:

when i say a second time hello to Thorian Gronk, he tells me "I need fat more beers to speak with you".
So i bought him a beer, but he didnt want to accept it... :-(

Sharven teaches crystal way, the logical way of magic for a Laanx priest given the use of the crystal in creating Lemurs. However dark way is awarded in character creation and to further confuse red way and azure way mages are the typical Laanx followers according to character creations latest additions. So, which is it?
I suggest the statue of Laanx gets turned into a statue of Parallo <3. An NPC could never replace the huge hole he left in my heart when he died  :'(

Even the Red Way and the Azure Way use the Crystal, so don't be thinking that the Crystal Way is the only logical one for Laanx worshippers.

It is true that Red Way and Azure Way mages are typically Laanx followers and Crystal Way mages typically aren't, but it's also noted that people from Hydlaa are also typically Laanx followers, and Sharven is a Hydlaan. He's also a xacha, which is a typical Laanx follower. The word is "typical" but it's a guideline, not a hard-and-fast rule. So yes, there will be exceptions. The examples of followers are there to help you decide at character creation which might be a good fit for you based on what you plan to roleplay. Clearly, every aspect of your character won't necessarily fall into one slot.

If you can tell me what specifically awards Dark Way, I'll look into it.

Edit: As for Thorian, keep talking to him and PM me the responses. While you're there you might as well help me fill out his base of understanding while I fix the beer thing.

I agree totally but I was just wondering if there was any one particular way that a priest of Laanx would be expected to be proficient in.

Last I checked, choices related to Laanx in character creation often favor Dark Way and Red Way over other kinds of magic.

In the Tutorial, the Klyros is holding a spiked shield and an axe. Now, from my understanding, Klyros are not very fond of fighting, but that aside... an axe?  Why not use a sword fit for them - like that special short sword - Galkard?
To see the world in a grain of sand
And Heaven in a wild flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour.

I don't think that any particular weapon fits any particular race. Its like expecting Africans to use spears and shields while Europeans use guns. Think of it like stereotypes in RL. People say that Americans are dumb but they are also the biggest scientific superpower. People say Xacha are smart but there are dumb ones inevitably.
