Exult Forum

Hi there, Russia here.

Several years ago, when I played U7:BG (the original, of course), I remember getting into a snow storm once. The screen went white (not pure white, but, like, transparent) and really cool snow flakes began falling down. This lasted for, I don't know, several minutes (real time), like a standard rain... I know, this could be just a problem with a pallette, but first of all, minutes later everything went back to normal and, secondly, everything beside that snow looked properly coloured...

So I'm asking: you people now began digging in the BG code - is winter in BG really possible? I mean, I've never experienced it any time later.

Sorry for bad English,
Thank you,
Dmitry

hmm... i know a kind of snow, too in BG.
but iam really sure that it didnt changed anything, it doesnt stay on the ground or something similiar. like rain it passed by and everything is just as before

i noticed snow several times at Lord Britishs Castle and in the West-Britannia area...

i think Emperor means a kind of change in the palette. like seeing
everything through a milky glass.
but i've never seen this, neither in bg, nor in si.

Yeah, I know this could be a change in the palette, like in Exult. But, in Exult this can happen if you pause the game during the storm, so the game freezes in the middle of a lightning flash. But the original BG's weather was not affected by the gumps, and I remember actually being able to play the game while it was "snowing". And yes, it was like looking through the milky glass.
