Nothing particularly wild happened, which is good, because I needed the break. That said, once I get my energy back, I'll be vanishing back into WOTR for a while.
Bjorn wandered in the swamp, Sigurd hung out in the desert, and Magni lazed about in the incubator room. Inga's age was showing, but didn't darken her spirit, and aside from occasionally getting stuck on the airlock door, mostly took care of herself.I focused on getting Sigurd into a better location, as the desert is not friendly to Norns, and he was quite hungry. I lured him over to the calendar tree, where he made friends with the Grendel.
I had a brief scare when the Observation Kit reported Magni and Bjorn as sick, but it turned out they'd just eaten some badplants. At some point, Bjorn went up the lift and across the glass walkway, so I activated the teleporter and sent him elsewhere. Ultimately, he ended up joining Sigurd by the calendar tree.At this point, everyone is well over six hours old, and I suppose Mernorns must age faster than their land dwelling counterparts, because nobody else is going gray yet. They've got quite a bit of time left in them, yet!
How do you run C2? Albian Years is super touchy on modern machines and I can't get the standalone version to work on my VM
ReplyDeleteYou know, I actually have a series of posts on here about my adventures in trying to get it to work on a modern machine and/or in a VM.

The TL;DR is... I gave up and just used old hardware that I had lying around. So now I've got an old NUC with Win7 that exists for the sole purpose of running Creatures 2.
Don't worry, at some point I got it to work lol. required using an entirely different virtualization software because apparently virtualbox is terrible at emulating directdraw
