Via an inspiration on the new John Romero forums,I choose to purchase Strife...good move!..& via another post atesting to Vavaoom support,I downloaded Vavoom,this current version.<br>I have 2 questions:<br><br>1.though I have no difficulty loading Strife thru Vavoom,& playing in high rez & D3D,& hearing music,I cannot get any character to start talking when you walk up to them.<br>As Strife is so heavy into roleplaying elements,this bascially eliminates the whole functionality of the game,from the very start of the very first level...correct..?<br>Does Vavoom "support" Strife ONLY in that one can actually see it...but thus not play it..?<br><br>Or ( more likely <!-- s:-) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:-) -->)..I'm just making some stupid bonehead error.....?<br><br>2.LASTLY,THOUGH NOT A VAVOOM QUESTION PER SE,BUT REALLY A sTRIFE ONE,DOES anyONE HAVE A SAVED FILE,OR BETTER YET AN ACTUALLY extant WEBPAGE,WITH A Strife walkthru..?...I'm on level 4..."met" the govenor,& am stumped where to go next...<br>Thanx in advance,anyone listening out there...<br>ericjmz<br>ericjmz@comcast.net

1. Yes, currently a lots of things are not implemented, but that will change with time. Implementing such as support from scratch is really hard.<br><br>2. I have saved original walkthrughs here at [url:39nm6apv]http://www.vavoom-engine.com/strife/velocity_hints. When talked with governor, which choice you choosed?

John Romero forums? Where?<br><br>BTW you can just shoot the gov with a poison arrow and he'll drop the prison key.

I got the chalice BEFORE meeting the govnor,,,time to go back...<br>By the way,thanx for the link to the walkthru!<br><br>eric

About the talking in strife how would you go about getting it is it in one of the files or are you going to have to hind out what they say manualy.

John Romero forums? Where?

<br>[url:101dxl91]http://rome.ro/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi<br><br>Conversations are in lumps in the form SCRIPT##, and format is quite simple. Generic random answers I have extracted from exe. So there are no problems in displaying them. The problem is those commands, that checks and gives money, item etc. Something is alredy discovered, but generally it's still unknown.<br>
