It is. Also, the creature shrinks when he enters it. One of the most interesting things I've done was to drop fences in front of the gate to block him in. He kept kicking it down, no matter how many times I told him not to. So I put so many fences down that he couldn't kick it down(fences never break, oddly). He just kept kicking it. Would that make him better at doing flying jump-kicks in battle?

Are you guys planning another game? If you are I would like to join in the multiplayer mayhem. I got B&W after its hay day so I never actually got to play online.

[PTTG??]

Yeah, it worked, too. Only problem was that I didn't have a creature. Make sure you complete land one, and maybe mess with Kong or something. Ook ok. Make sure you've backed up your account first, Kong can backfire.

Let's see, how about we try annother game tonight? I'll be able to set up the server again, especially since I know what we're doing now.

[Apple Master]

What time?

[PTTG??]

Let's do 6:00 pacific again. 9 hours from now.
Synchronize your chronomonomonomoneters.

Anyone who can host at a reasonable time GMT? I can't see myself staying up past 2 in the morning.

[Mono124]

I can host in... two hours? I am mowing the lawn and then I have to wash some clothing. Wait... I don't know if I can host. My ports aren't forwarded... hmm.

EDIT: Well I can host now if someone wants to tell me how.

What patches do I need for this?

[Moogie]

Step aside for the B&W guru.

Creature Unlockers: The Creature Unlockers work regardless of version, but you must be on a specific land in order to find the special NPC villager who offers the swap. These lands are 1, and 4. There used to be custom-built sandbox maps that offered this feature, but I can't currently find them. This page offers more detailed instructions: http://noctalis.com/dis/bw/download3.shtml

Ah, okay then.

Back to trying to make him bigger and stronger then, the gist of what I got was "carry rocks around for a while and then sleep in pen"

I assume the pen is the little fenced area infront of the temple gate.

Growing Your Creature: Four easy steps to fast growth:

1. Download this sandbox map: http://www.kayssplace.com/files/index.php?display=150 (or any eternal-night map)
2. Enter this sandbox, find some blue mushrooms, feed him. Get his hunger down to nil, and fatness around 50%. You can feed him other things to fatten him up, but the mushrooms are special for fast growth.
3. Make him sleep in his pen, ideally at night. Night growth is 50% faster, IIRC. You can edit the sandbox level files (they are .txt) to be eternally night, but it's been so many years, I don't recall offhand exactly where those values are. Should be self-evident.
4. Speed up time and leave him there for a few RL hours. If your map is not eternally nighttime, he will keep waking up, so you will have to actively force him to sleep every time, which is annoying.


KONG Is Bad: Be wary of using Kong. It was the first-ever program created to 'hack' Creature Mindfiles, and has been known to cause problems. Instead, you might want to try Cache's excellent tweaks and utilities. Here is his CreatureStats app: http://www.kayssplace.com/files/index.php?display=189


Casting Food On Self: It is possible to teach a creature to cast Food on himself. Whether he actually eats it is another matter, as he's likely to target something else nearby before the grain pile has 'settled' into a usable state.

(New post so as not to confuse)

+1 to the GMT request. I may be up for a game tomorrow sometime, if I can get everything installed properly. Oh man... I wonder if I still have that floppy disk with my beloved wolf? <3


Edit: My floppy drive is dead.

[Mono124]

Hey, better your floppy drive be dead than what happened to me. Stuck my flash drive with my creature that I spent months on... files are corrupt.

[PTTG??]

I can't start any earlier than 6:00 here, so maybe we could start at 9:00 PM here, 5:00 AM for you?

[Moogie]

That's pretty early, but I'll try to be there.

[alfie275]

Well, its 21:28 where I live now.

[Itnetlolor]

Oh man, one time I owned a pet cheetah, or tiger, or whatever was available as a starting creature.

Anyway, in maybe the 3rd or 4th level, my creature was still rather young and rather small, but I found a growth potion and he grew to colossal heights, of course, he also had to take a crap. For the sake of punmanship, "Holy Crap!!!".

Well, after taking his dump on a house and destroying it, a moment later he shrunk back to his original size, and his crap was nearly as large as he was. Just for the hell of it (or because my hand was getting a bit red), I gave him his own lump as a size comparison, ended up petting him (actually, I think it was by accident), and he ate it. >_< Surprisingly, his stomach handled it well.

Oh. My. Me.
