Skyward Collapse / Re: Looking for volunteers for alpha next week.

I sent my email to tigersfan a while ago but I'm posting here because that seems the thing to do.

Another question: when, and how, will I know if I've been accepted for the alpha?

Will Skyward Collapse be available for Macintosh?  If it's Windows only then I can't help in the alpha.

Also, could you clarify what the 3rd phase is testing?  By "further refined in terms of how we're introducing it to you" you mean the solo experience, right?

Price: my PC says 25 merc coins, the help menu says 75, and when I bought a merc I ended up spending all of my ~50 coins.

What's worse is that my merc left me when I got nicked several times, to little effect, by a blade trap at an entrance.  I apparently nudged the controls a little too much for my invincibility to continue.

As for how effective mercs are in general, I can't tell since I killed monsters before he could fire a shot.

A Valley Without Wind 1 & 2 / Re: Are excess perk tokens lost forever?

I confirmed that perk tokens carry over to the next level.  Sorry for not replying sooner.

Suppose I go into a pyramid and pick up three perk tokens, but I only have two perk slots left.  Will that extra token fill up a slot when I reach the next level or is it gone forever?

Unless you're on OSX, sometimes the verification of the cache doesn't work terribly well there.
I'm on OSX.

I've uninstalled/reinstalled AVWW, then manually updated the game.  Unfortunately not only are the consciousness shard just ugly pink boxes but the game no longer records my mission success.

On a related note, is there a way I can download a stand-alone version of this game even if I've downloaded it via Steam?

You will have to copy/paste the links to get the files.

Seriously?  Copy/paste each of those dozens of links individually?  :o

Can you try and download the updates manually?

All I'm getting is "This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below." followed by a list of links (that aren't hyperlinked) to zip files.

Problems updating for Mac Steam users seems to be a problem for Arcen, each game subforum should have a stickied thread on how to solve the problem.

I have access to a continental shelf but not a continental shallow.  I've sailed around my continent and have found no shallow.  How do I access the shallows?  Do I calm the wind?  Deploy buoys?

What do the shallows look like?  Are they the rocky squares in the middle of shelf squares?  If 'yes' then I think I can figure out how to access them.

AI War / Re: How can I configure scouting paths?
« on: December 21, 2010, 04:21:48 PM »
You can hold shift and right click each planet you want them to pass through in-order to control the exact path.
It worked, thanks. :)

I'm not sure if that qualifies as micromanagement :)
Nope, I only have to direct them once rather than after every jump.

AI War / How can I configure scouting paths?
« on: December 21, 2010, 08:57:45 AM »
When I send scouts somewhere I can only control the end on the path and not which path they take.  Is there a way of controlling their paths without micromanagement?

AI War Technical Support / Re: Trail Time Remaining

Do you have any expansions enabled, as that might be the problem if you only own the base game.
Ah, I turned off the Light of the Spire Expansion and restart.  It's working now. :)

Sorry for the confusion, and please let us know if that doesn't do it!
Restarting is just quitting and reloading the program, right?  Because that hasn't worked for me.

Would you like my technical specifications?
