Yay! Fantastic! That translates to... 6 am for me! ![[nlaugh]](/images/smilies/emot_laugh.gif "[nlaugh]") I might have to make use of the pre-show question thread on the C4 forums. My TCR Norns |

The current time translates into 2:00 PM for me. Since I have a class at that time, I won't be able to attend (as much as I want to). Since I can't post on the C4 forums at all (my attempt at registration buggered up and I have no way of fixing it), is there anyone here who would be willing to either post this question to the thread on the C4 forums or maybe ask it in the IRC when the time comes? It would be much appreciated. The initial decision to not add the grendels and ettins made sense since at the time the game was due for a release within a year. However, after all the delays, the decision's starting to make less and less sense since you've more time now. Is there another good reason for not including at least the grendels in the initial release if you're still deciding to go that route? Risen Angel's Creatures Blog |

Sure Grendel Man; I've just passed the question on for you! Sorry to hear that you and Malkin are unable to attend, I won't be able to either! I'll be visiting the in-laws in Devon. Still I look forward to submitting my own questions and reading through the transcript. I'll be there in spirit!  |

![[noddeye]](/images/smilies/emot_oddeye.gif "[noddeye]") Did the C4 site just go down for you guys as well?I've been getting 404 errors when I go there. Is there so much sudden traffic it went offline? Assuming you guys aren't having problems, would you mind asking more about the running requirements for the updated versions of the old games that come with the collectors edition, and if they can run the mods we use now? Good luck guys! |

The site has been down for a few hours, Sam999. I thought it was just me before, but I saw at least one other person asking about it. Definitely wish they had better technical support for the site! I only hope that this downtime isn't indicative of what to expect with the game's servers (if there are any like in DS). I'm curious why any updated versions of the old games would be unable to use the add-ons we use now? I haven't seen any mention of the old games being updated. If they're along the lines of the GOG.com versions, the only change should be their ability to run on newer machines. Could you maybe elaborate on your thoughts? Just want to get a clear idea so that the question gets answered during the chat, if the developers can answer it! |

Hasn't Andrea previously said that the box set is being handled by BigBen, so the C4 devs aren't the best people to ask about it? My TCR Norns |
|||
sam999 |
I hadn't heard that yet. If so, how do I make contact with BigBen to ask them? |
|||
Jessica |
That sounds familiar, Malkin. I've contacted BigBen numerous times regarding Creatures 4 and the older games... No response. You can try contacting them on their official site or Facebook page, but as I said, I've never received a response from anyone. I guess I still don't understand your question, though. Why would the updated versions not be able to run with the current third-party add-ons? They're such a huge part of the community that it seems wrong to even consider changing the games so that they would not be able to utilize everything. The site is still down for me, and it's been hours. Not exactly the best time for the site to die like this for an extended period of time! |

Hmm. That's Friday, March 1st at 4:00am for me. I don't think I'll be up for chatting at that time.  - Rascii |

Interessting to hear what people ask and what they answer! I wonder when some of my not answered questions on the 3 topics I made on C4 forum could be somehow answered,thought. If I where able to attend,I wouldn't feel like re-say everything I posted on those topics,nor do I know if posting a direct link of the topics would be better, you know me - Im a massive text maker ;3 I guess they realy don't like theyre own C4 forum very much,as theyre hardly there XD As for questions I been wondering about a bit, not counting my 3 topics I mentioned: I hope questions like the ever avoided (well,I feel like so) if there ever will be Norn tails added? and perhaps even horns on males,some Norn hair and perhaps classic C1 (and maybe C2?) Norn like breeds in the future,as some kind of honouring of the original games (ok,C1 only then - but I adore the C2 Norns too more then the C3 ones to be honest,alltought - theyre ok) And if there is a way to toggle of the thing to NOT have gravestones laying around when a Norn dies? Not a fan to see graves around,even if they can be moved around - I just like the old game because it was gravestone free *it had it home on the tool kit,and that was better* |

Aw, sorry to hear you won't be attending, Norngirl.  While the developers may not be on the Creatures 4 forums as often as us, the main purpose of hosting the Q&A in CC Chat is the live aspect; it'll be more convenient (and exciting!) to have everyone's questions answered in real time. Don't forget you can make use of the Ask Your Question to the C4 Dev Team topic too! |

I might chek it out soon ^^ Still hope one of those questions get asked *.* (as I recall many didn't like the tombstone idea either in one of the C4 thread, as well many wanted the tails back too,like me XD ) |

I'm afraid I can't make it, so would someone mind asking the following questions? 1. Will the Collectors Edition versions of the old games be able to run mods intended for the old games? 2. Will the Collectors Edition games have unlimited installations, or some spore-like infuriating copy protection intended to stop piracy by making it so nobody can ever play the game in the first place. I don't want to pirate or share the software, I just want my games to work. 3. Will the Collectors Edition games include Docking Station? EDIT: 4. When you say that the new versions of the old games will be mac compatible, do you mean fully mac compatible and equivalent to their PC counterparts, or with rainbow spew, catalogue files unzipping into the wrong locations and no wolfing mode? Thanks in advance. |

I think I speak on behalf of everyone in the CC Chat team when I say a BIG thank you to Fishing Cactus for taking the time out to chat with us, Rascii for producing the chat log, Jessica for moderating the session, everyone else who attended, and those of us who sadly couldn't join us but still posted their questions! Amazing job everyone, be pleased with yourselves; last night was definitely a success! |

Right, great work everyone! I still can't believe how many people showed up... there were 66 in chat at one point. And that's not even counting the other folks who showed up at different times! I think everyone did an awesome job and the Q&A went really well. Thank you so much to Fishing Cactus for paying us a visit, Jessica, Rascii, the other mods, and Laura for hosting it! |
|||
Tea Queen Laura |
*claps* And you're welcome! I'm still buzzing from the fact that the Live Q&A was hosted in my chat (well, our chat really!) of all places... Even when it felt like I had 66 people running around my living room at one point. |
