We've managed to make a big update. LOMM development has reached a Pre-Alpha Planning Stage. As for LORE 2's first chapter, its up!

As you all know its that time again to GO BACK TO SCHOOL. Well, for the LORE Team its College. :\ Many have sent in questions about Ghallant being on the team. We have allowed him but were not exactly considering him a big member. Also, a new section is up called The Dynasty of Dereth. As you all know Dereth is the world of Asherons Call. Well, when you click on TDOD you will know about the greatest guild of the PK server, Darktide.

Ok many have been sending emails concerning Chapter 5 of LORE 1. The HAK file needed is the desert tileset found here.

LORE 2's Prelude is up! Expect Chapter 1 in a few weeks. Click on Downloads, LORE 2, and click The Prelude to download it. A final note, Chapter 1 of LORE 2 will require a very important hak file found here. Have a nice week!

We know there was suppose to be a LORE Online Beta up today but we'vedelayed it. Theres a few more internal things to do before it goes live. And, a breakthrough has occurred! The LORE Scripters now have full knowledge of how Local Variables work. I mean, some members were very lazy and did not want to take time to learn, but, today it has become possible! Anyways folks, LORE 2- The Prelude will be released by Wedensday depending on if Arkhan sends in the video. =D And one final note- we will only allow 8 LORE Online beta testers to test the module. The application will be up soon and if you are accepted then you will be recieving the Server Password.

I'd like to address some issues revolving around rumors and a recent event. Today, a meeting was held in Code-X's Appartment and in the LORE HeadQuarters house. Well, it has been decided, to re-instate our former team member, Ghallant. Now, this was suppose to remain classified but in an interview in EverQuest from someone named "Hopesanddreams" it slipped out about our former members and new members questionare. Well, rest assured, Ghallant will not have username access to the NWN Forums, and he will not have site access or any administrative access. Now, before we allow him to rejoin, we want YOUR votes and opinions! Send all votes to LoreTeam@hotmail.com! If your votes say no, then we wont allow him to come back. If your votes say yes, then we will! All votes will be taken until August 3rd, Midnight. We'd also like to say, as a final note, we'll be unveiling another project that only 1 person is working on, and thats Code-X. It will be announced later today. UPDATE: The Cable Modem Server Boxes will be here between 8am EST and 10 am EST and will be hooked up by 3 pm EST. With the news of a new Cable Modem the LORE Online Alpha server will be up and allowing local character to play. Good luck to all of you and have a nice evening!

New layout is up. Within a week a demo version of LORE 2- Prelude will be up! In the meantime, I'm going to bed. I'm tired! Trip from Pensylvania was harsh!

The Pre-Member, Steven Burnside (Arkhan) has just sent me an email with a link to his site. http://archaicdesigns.netfirms.com The site contains a link to the LORE Modulation Site. The 7 new Dell computers arrived v.i.a UPS today along with a Dell UNIX Server and Server Networking Ports. So, within 3 weeks, if all goes well, a LORE Online Beta should begin. Another good thing is each new Dell and the servers are all 2.0 ghz, 64 MB Vid cards, and 256 SDRAM! Anyways, thanks for all of your supporting emails about the 7th miner who was trapped. (Code-X's Uncle) Heh, Codey should be back next week from Pensylvania. He wont believe the supporting emails! Again, thanks for visiting LORE Modulation Center!

We are proud to announce that we are finished with the LORE 2 section and more information is available! We may have a new team member soon as well! He is making Videos for LORE 2. Were very proud to have him as a pre-member. Also, theres a reason we have not updated and the LORE 1 walkthrough isnt available yet. Our webmaster, Codey (Code-X) has a relative who is in the Pensylvania mines, and is one of the 9 miners who is trapped in the mine. Pray for his half-uncle. Pray! Also, on a side note, there is a requirement to join LORE Modulation. Members must play up to ATLEAST Chapter 3 of LORE 1 in order to be a team member. This was voted upon all members. And a final note, either this weekend or Monday the LORE Team will have 7 new computers at their headquarters in Akron, Ohio. Thus, development on play-testing will be fully developed. Oh forgot to mention, new screenshots in screenshots section.

LORE Modulation would like to announce that the site is no longer Tripod FREE. It is now Tripod PLUS! Thus, we have 5 times as much bandwidth, 5 times as much memory, and tons of other good stuff. Tommorrow we will be releasing 2 screenshots! 1 from LORE Online, and 1 from LORE 2. And, by request of 25+ emails, we are going to be posting a walkthrough for LORE-Prelude and part of LORE- Chapter 1! Again, thank you for your support to LORE Modulation. Have a good evening! (No more bandwidth issues! W00t! :P)

LORE 1 is officially completed! Go to the downloads section, and click on LORE for the downloads page, again, thanks goes out to all 200+ people who sent us emails telling us about bugs, errors, and all that stuff. ;) Now, the debate is on about our next project. Will it be LORE Online? Or will we begin work on LORE II? Well, the votes will be in by all of our devs this Thursday and that final vote will determine what project gets closer to release. =)

7-20-02:
The team now has seperate emails. LoreTeam@hotmail.com is your common needs for LORE, Support, and Questions, concerns, etc. And any question about joining LORE Modulation or a dispute with a Team Member should be sent to LoreDevs@hotmail.com

We have recieved some bug reports that consist of players not identifying themselves to the NPC "King Farlon Hyatt" in Chapter 2. We've put up a new version and in order to proceed you have to download Chapter 2 and start it over. Expect the next few chapters near the middle of this week. (Chapter 3, 4, 5, and the Finale)
-LORE Admin Nick-

7-19-02:
As many of you know, Ghallant was booted off the team, and he was the admin for the next project, Baldurs Gate: Relived. Well, those logos for BG: Relived have officially been scrapped off the site and the project will not be worked on by any LORE Devs. So, Ghallant, enjoy working by yourself! Since BG: Relived will probably never see the light of day, we here at LORE have announced our next project after LORE and LORE Online. Yup, thats correct! LORE II has officially been announced, and we'll be sure to put special NPC's in Chapter 3 that tell of some ancient tales from where LORE II takes place next! Again, if you want BG: Relived, good luck looking for it, I doubt it will rise from the grave. If you want LORE II, go to the projects and project status page!

7-18-02:
Because LORE Dev Code-X found already planned blueprints of Chapter 2, the LORE Team has built, and play tested LORE- Chapter 2 and its available for download! The next, and longest chapter of LORE will be available soon! Again, great job and honorable mentioning goes to Code-X!
-Nick Freedman- (LORE Admin)

7-18-02:
LORE Chapter 1 is now available in the downloads section! Players now have the oppurtunity to visit the country of Hyatt and remember that plague from the horrible NWN SP Campaign? Its back! Oh and because I hate that old tavern tune, so there is no more music. Dont worry, its only temporary until we find a new tune! All bugs should be reported to LoreTeam@hotmail.com

We owe you all an appoligy, the modules went through a great test today. The prelude is done and the first chapter is really close to being done! Also, we have recieved about 20+ emails from old Arcanum fans. Well Arcanuts, its over! We dont work on Arcanum, why? Theres 0% chance of us going back to a mod-community that slanders the members reputations to benefit from their own. Anyways, were strictly 100% NWN Modding now. A final note, the Prelude is available in Downloads, read the warning as well please, our first chapter should be available tommorow! So, you wont be trapped on the island of Fern forever!
-Codey- (Code-X) 

7-16-02:
The Module of The Month and LORE Singleplayer World Map is now up for Download. LORE Prelude and Chapter 1 is coming soon, so players will have the great oppurtunity to see what life is like beyond the island of Fern. :) Enjoy your day! Tommorow LORE Prelude and LORE Chapter 1 could be up. (OR Thursday)

7-12-02:
Ok this is an update! This is extremely important: Players seem to be able to use their edited/hacked/main characters and load them on the LORE Chapters. When LORE-Prelude is available for Download, along with LORE-Chapter 1 (originally C1hapter 2) then players will have to restart on the Prelude and it will not be possible to use local characters, the only option will be to create one. This kind of thing saddens many LORE Devs, we work hard on the first part of our mod and players arrive in the world like GODS. This is not fair, and if during a Beta or Alpha Test Server this is performed players will be booted from the server and told to make a new character. This "really" worsens our feelings towards the toolset, but, it really worsens our attitude with BioWare. Why is this possible? To import some high-level character to the beginning of an epic module and become GOD right away? Anyways these issues will be resolved as soon as we make some quest NPC's Plot. Thank you to Tolan Darkwood for finding these bugs. Thats about all to update on, in the meantime, stayed tuned! New site layout coming this weekend! (maybe)
LORE Admin, Nick Freedman

Greetings fans of LORE Modulation, I checked the site and reported it, but, it seems there have been 250+ downloads since the first Chapter was released. An update to the chapter will be released later this afternoon or tommorow morning. The chapter was also voted to be renamed a Prelude, and soon Chapter 1 will be out and players can begin to discover the darkest of evil magic being brewed in the country of Hyatt! Again, take care LORE Friends! Also, a new page will be up later today describing LORE *Online*. And for a final note- The Projects page was updated on the LORE Series and the percent has been brought back up to date. ;) Take care!

Hello friends! Some of the LORE Team members have a few real-life AP classes to train for and will be gone most of the week. The members include BlackBlade, Nicholas, Alex, and Ghallant. Good luck on those Advanced Placement Tests guys! Also- new layout will up tommorow and many new sections along with a new section dedicated to temporary alpha test servers for LORE Chapter 2! Again, thank you for visiting LORE Modulation, have a nice day.
-Codey- (Code-X)
