I somehow like the idea of watching the pixels merge. But then again, these kind of situations are handled with black screens. These kind of situations being talking to Petrus, which does not look like sex but gives you a quest. I've never gotten a chaotic victory, but I assume that you get a similar black screen of victory.

We could get Blob to make a good picture involving bananas, whips and mistresses, and a text next to it. "You have great sex blah blah blah" or something. Or we make an action key and have it happen as reading on the game screen, where time just passes... If ou are interrupted, we need some kind of berserker effect.

Yeah, the mutants are a result from a war that happened recently in the IVAN world. There was some kind of magical carpet bombing involved... I think Jenny is a tool of war designed at that time too. I like 4zb4's plan though, it has potential.

Wow, I definetely want emperor at attnam. Let's set it up with my gmail account. =) Too sweet to be true, this is. Capristo, you da man!

How about a wizard? Izzy's there already, we might want someone else. He could need the baby for some dark ritual, research, to feed his pet, whatever.

The problem about that plan is to have the player do those things. IVAN gives the player quite straightforward ways to proceed at this point, so this quest too should have something pointing to it's direction. Maybe Petrus would give one of the wives as a present for the valiant knight, or maybe it could be included in one of the chaotic victories? f.ex.

*while "cleaning" Attnam, 6th wife of Petrus comes running to you*
"Oh, I've always loved strong men! You killed my husband, who was strongest of all, please make me your wife instead (Y/n)"

When you exit the empty Attnam or claim the throne, a black screen follows, which tells about the happy life you lead for 10 months, a child is born, grows a bit, is stolen and then you go after him. Depending on how many years you'd spend idle, your stats and skills should go down a bit, gear rust (maybe you'd have new, royal gear instead?) and many other things happen in the game. GC should be working as a mine maybe, trade with New Attnam commenced and so forth.

I just got a weird message. Got transported to another room via a fountain (UT1->UT2), killed the Jackal there, collected the items and offered a cheap copy of Petrus' left nut to Mellis, whose altar was in the room. Boom, my DEX goes up. There's the attached picture as proof. Does making offerings really train DEX? All those complicated rituals...

Get the cream out of as many mods as you can and combine them into a single version of IVAN. Use the CVS version as the base, and ask the mod authors about it before ruthlessly copying their work into ours. I'm talking about the script only this far, mostly items and materials. If you can go deeper, then go you! Please also make a history file about what you took and where from. Pay attention to balance and if they're really needed.

Izzy and 4zb4, I was thinking that this could be a job for you two. Izzy because he's been playing IVAN for so long and 4zb4 for being more familiar with the script files (?).

EDIT:The attachment contains my document on ideas. If someone's got spare time you could try to script something from there. However, right now bugfixing is the top priority, so do that instead if you know how. Post your results on scripting in this thread with the code tag.

OK, sorry for not responding earlier. The following people should be able to view and post at IVAN development sub-forum. If not, then let me or Capristo know. I'm making the sub-forum visible to everyone at some point because of the demand. Ugh.

Wave 1: 4zb4, Arturion, Chaostrom, Alveradok, Z, and all mods/admins
Wave 2: sPlath, Iankill and Planplan

I'm asking, since this far it's mostly been me and Chao posting there. Nothing has been achieved as of yet, as far as I know anyway. Chaostrom's given a few things to do and I've even given a timeline, but as there has been no response of any kind this far I decided to ask if you guys can see what's going on in the sub forum. Planplan had problems earlier, I don't know if that's been fixed yet. Capristo, would it be easier to start a separate forum for this project?

What else were there in the archive? You said something about 12 versions of IVAN...
