Hey everyone,

I started playing Realms of Arkania 1: Blade of Destiny, and decided to try out the UGE (Universal Game Editor) module for it to tweak some stats of my chars.

I add the module to the UGE list, choose one of my savegames, and go in to edit it, but the variables listed are so whack. They just don't make sense! Most stats in the list are blank, or have values that are not true, or are not possible.

The numbers are just not on the correct scale. Clearly the module is not working right.

For Ex: It says Max hit points for CHAR 1 is "0". Obviously none of my chars have 0 max HP, but I change it to something like "45" anyway, to see if it alters anthing in-game. But when I go back in to the game, Char 1's hitpoints are still 35, as they always have been, and nothing was actually changed.

So it looks like the UGE module is not linking to the correct information. Anyone else have this problem, or know of a better save game editor for RoA1?

Thanks!

I actually never used any editor with the trilogy, just simple hex-editing. If you know hex-editing well, it's easy to find the values for every party member, be it his life, spell numbers (negative are all "overmaxed" values like D8 or FF), skill numbers or even an item in a certain inventory position if you're especially good (difficult one).
Search for a name of a party member in the savegame, from there it's trial and error (backup the savegame before).

Thanks for making this game available - got the trilogy now! Did the CD have any digital speech like the other 2?

Also, the first few bars of music for Destiny is a total rip off of Elite II - note for note! (Or was it the other way around?

Y'know: Da da da da da da - da da da da da da!!

No, there was no digital speech in Blade of Destiny altogether.

Has anyone this game (+it's successors) in the original german version ready for download?
I searched everywhere but found nothing.

I once owned all of them (!), but lost them long ago. It would be nice to play them once more.

you mean Das schwarze Auge - Schicksalsklinge? i have it in original (thanks you so much "Besteller Games" for alle those Games you bought me ^^) so i dont know where you can get it. why not try to find it with Emule and such?

What is the password needed to open the chest in the Ship of the Dead? It asks me who has trapped their souls in the ship.

You can get the password in one of the taverns in Thorwal, if you stay for some time in it, drinking beer or eating to let time pass. There will be a story told about this ship which will contain the hint.

I'm having trouble with the mirror/lever setup. Every time I walk backwards through the mirror, it says I'm standing in front of the lever, but then that is immediately replaced with a description of the corridor, and the pull lever icon is repleced by the camp icon. It is driving me crazy - how do I get it to work?

It might help if you give a more detailed description including where your party is.
If it's where I think you are you either have to split up your party or just use a spell to get the target area onto your automap and cast transversalis to teleport there.
