It's a lot easier to cross-check other peoples work than to do it yourself from scratch. You've done quite an amazing job converting these rather advanced quests; I think everybody would have made a couple of mistakes in the process.

I'm currently checking Baltar's Staff. Geez, That's one huge quest pack! I'll let you know if I find anything.

- and thank you for the updates; downloading immediately...

Thank you sir! I'm still working on Penter's Cove. I've been about 80% done for a while but I just haven't had a chance to finish it up. Hopefully soon though.

I can imagine the work is rather time consuming - do you have plans for the rest of Aginn's quest packs as well, or are you stopping after Penters Cove?
I would love to offer you my assistance, but I'm afraid my skills won't help you much :roll:

I would have to double check, but I thought Penter's Cove was the last one left to do. Unless I missed some.

Oh, you're probably right. I made a folder when I joined the forum and downloaded the old quest documents from here: http://aginsinn.yeoldeinn.com/
I never paid much attention to who had written which quest packs though... The ones I'm thinking of are not Aginn's original work it seems:
* Heir To Chaos
* Maze Of The Minotaur
* The Dead Sleep Lightly
* The Rise Of Ramiah

I just noticed that the tile for cave room size 4x4 is missing in the Renegade! quest pack.
- I figure you probably want to add that as well.

I still have plans to do these ones too, but I'm not sure when. I actually have a partial one that someone else did of Heir to Chaos that I thought I got from the Inn's quests pages, but it's not listed there. I must have gotten it from Phoenix's site before it went down. I didn't realize that the quest on the page you linked to was actually complete, so that one made it back on the list of quests to do.

Fixed and re-uploaded. Thank you sir.

Phoenix and I had the Ramiah quest pack 95% complete. We even got Biff to do some new tiles for it. You can actually see the Ramiah tile in the background of some of the pics in this post:
viewtopic.php?f=191&t=1860&start=260#p35427

But then life got in the way and computers crashed and new fancy computers didn't like old programs etc and all our projects have been on hold ever since. I'm glad members are taking it upon themselves to update these classics to a more modern format for the community to enjoy.

Would you by any chance still have the file for that tile? The one that is in the pack is nowhere near as nice as that one and I am not that artistic.

I've finally managed to read through Baltar's Staff, and the only error I've found is that the quest notes for "O" on board 5 are missing - these aren't in the original files either, but I guess it was meant to say something along the lines of "This is the exit to the Town (board #2)."
