Description
Aiar A0 - Youth is the beginning of an epic roguish campaign.
Located in the southern coast of the continent, Ar'Aialon is the sprawling capital of the Empire that governs most of the known world. It's a city with everything you can think of, and more. The most famous landmark in the city is called the Giant's Fork. River Ar'Dein flows between the two huge obelisks of unknown origin and through the rest of the city to the ocean.
You are a young man living in an orphanage near the poorest districts of the city. Life is often rough and seldom fair. At least you have a roof to sleep under and usually some food to eat. But the orphanage is poor and both of the women who take care of the kids, Elza and Vana, are old and grumpy. Pardak the groundskeeper is less grumpy but even he is a bit strange sometimes.
Currently you are asleep, soon to wake up for a morning that seems to be perfectly normal...
ugh i keep getting a game freeze at the beach...i run over and hide behind the big dark rock and it says you didn't hide well enough and shows some wizard and then game freezes and i can't exit..or even ctrl + alt + delete out to main screen...i keep having to reboot my pc.

Tried the workaround, didn't work. Although I understand you have discontinued work on the series, I would really love it if you were to update this so it was possible for me to complete it. I really liked this module as far as I got. The only thing I would complain about is that the guards spot and listen checks are too high, as I had to try 8 or 10 times to sneak past them quite often, and there's no way I could possibly fight them.

I had the same problem with the beach. It just said you haven't hid well enough and stopped. I never saw the person who zapped me, but his text bubble appeared right where I was. It didn't even kill me or anything. I have HoTU 1.62 installed. I'll try the workaround you suggested. Just thought you should know.

Mikael: I had the same thing happen to me. I noticed that when it happened it appeared that who ever was the person that was supposed to find me appeared in the same exact spot as I was. I hope this may help with a solution for you. Unfortunately I am just a player not a builder so I do not have any suggestions at all. Thank you and keep up the excellent work.

A truly excellent Mod, with some really good ideas that really added to the "feel" of the module. I really enjoyed and eagerly await the third installment.

A very nice intro mod, albeit rather on the short side. Implements a few very good story-telling ideas.

Lots of details for the best rogue prologue around. _________________________ The hottest new modules you can't miss - player suggested Contributor to Overlooked Module Reports An interview with me about NWN mods
