Two questions: character pics & casino?

Post by narc813 »

I just bought the full version of this game. I've been on a kick lately going back and playing all the old BT games; I was psyched to run across something similar with better graphics and more features!

Two questions:

(1) Are there any mods out there that will give you more character pics to choose from?

(2) What's the deal with the casino? I spent 5 minutes in there with a high-luck rogue, and turned $1000 into $10 million. No kidding. It kind of ruins the game, but I couldn't stop myself. :)

1-check the mods section...but don't think there are any mods yet that allow add'l char-pics..but Origen & Rickstavern are the experts on such..unless they're too modest to respond..

2-hope yer Rogue is strong enuf to carry $10 mil in gold! ..how lucky is s/he, anyway?

btw, were there already 812 'narcs' on this board!? :wink:

My rogue was a female Beggen w/ 17 luck. I think it may either have been a glitch, or they fixed it in the latest patch, because I installed the 2.01a beta patch and started a new party, and I couldn't get it to happen again. Maybe it wasn't a glitch at all, and I'm just supremely lucky.

PS - not a lot of Narcs, but I like the number 813.

Probability is such a random thing. Just ask Schro-dinger's cat.

Mebe the 13 in 813 provides a touch o' luck?

Speaking of luck: there's a way w/i the game to get unnaturally lucky (I won't spoil it, but it's legit); yet I couldn't see any dif in my char's luck-related activities even when boosting their luck sky-high :? ..so I'm guessing there's either a cut-off point re: luck attribute, or once it goes past a certain #, it starts back at zero & so on..?

Anyone have a clew?

btw, if anyone is in dire need of gold & can't get lucky in the casino, there's a easy (slightly cheaty/chee-z) way to 'work' the casino & quickly amass a Gates-sized fortune
