You misunderstand me. Of course it's hard to be impressed as a gamer when you can't experience it. However many people have inquired after a linux port of IVAN over the years, and to see one after so many have given up on it is impressive. Also, I believe herself and cizra are linux users, they may be able to use the improved modding system on IVAN development.

Impressive regardless. Lenox tried porting to linux back at greatboards and he gave up.

I'm trying to upload my pictures for IVANcon but whenever I try to edit them to add a description it tells me the picture doesn't exist.

It's probably referring to the fact that golems are usually created by someone wanting slaves/guards. These don't have one, but as they are made to serve they declare that they need a master. It also serves as good advance warning as golems tend to be quite powerful.

Once you have activated WM bones files will not be generated so there's no need to worry. If you wish to go around without being bothered, I suggest you familiarise yourself with political immunity or the ultimate golem. Makes testing random things so much easier

There is also the possibility that the code has been altered or corrupted. If after the WM testing as per Al's suggestion you still don't find any scrolls of change material, re-download IVAN and try again.

WTF, is he that severe?
This is IVAN. Severity should not come as a surprise. Though, I am surprised how badly your relation with others suffered. As I understand it, that result only reduces your relationship with Mellis by 100. Perhaps Al is right in saying that it depends on how mad he is with you. This warrants testing.

EDIT:
Tested. As far as I can see there's only a global reduction of favour by 100 each time.

Only "good prays" improve relations, "bad prays" decrease favour and even wisdom.

Sacrificing is a reliable way to improve relations. Though most items aren't worth much, by the time you've waited 3 hours to pray again you could have gotten that much and more through sacrifice.

There's no need to become Atavus' champion, the only thing he's good for are chests with random loot or the arcanite platemail which can be gotten anywhere above 500 favour, halfway to champion which is 1000.

To become a champion of Valpurus/Mortifer you need to sacrifice a lot. You better be damn sure you have 1000 favour with them before praying to them. A quick way (this spills over to the next question) is to regularly pray to their second-in-command (Legifer/Cruentus).

Depending on your wisdom, the gods 1, 2 or even 3 over will increase, while the others decrease. This means that praying to Cleptia will not improve relations with Cruentus (too far apart).

The best way to make sure is to find an altar of theirs and sacrifice something. If you're declared a champion, you may pray. Once you've gotten your gift however, it's advisable that you don't pray to them 3 hours later (they have a massive timer).

I doubt it. Personally I reckon Enner's screams messed up their arms so they couldn't attack.
