Hi.
This is my first post to the board, and I'm glad to be here.
I've recently beaten PoG (Guardian WAS too easy, guess I need to download that plug-in).
Here's my question:
I've got the registered version of PoG, I've got Trinity, and when I load the game the plug-in box appears and I click the box next to Trinity, however, when I begin a new game at no point do I find myself confronted with characters choices. What could be causing this?
(I have PoG 1.0.2, a mid-line business level LCD-iMac with 640mb RAM, and am running OS 9.2.2, in case system knowledge would be helpful in solving this.)
Thank you and adieú.

By "click the box" do you mean click /on/? And by character choices do you mean race? If so, then it's natural. Please clarify for more accurate help.

Also, welcome to the boards.

Yes, click on the box.
however, because I am using Trinity I wish to have choices of ranger, swordsman, or conjuror and I'm not getting them, nor certain of when I should be getting said options.
Thank you and adieú.

When you start a new guy, after the preambles, there should be a screen that has the choices, along with the description

Welcome to the PoG web board! I hope you hang around a bit (and check out the Blue Mushroom Pub!).
As for you question: make sure that the folder "(x) Trinity Plugin" is in the plugins folder, not the whole folder with readme, etc. Also, make sure that when the game starts and the plugin selection window pops up that there is a check by this name. If you are going to be playing Trinity, I suggest downloading Spells Expander, as well as my plugin, World of Ch0as (a little self-advertising there ). Neither are cheat plugins, and both have some fun quests/puzzels to work out. And now I'll stop before I go on rambling forever. Again, on the behalf of other PoG-boarders, welcome!

oh yea, not a cheat, only gives conjurors the ability to
1--Enter the swordsman guild
2--Make it past the river (forgot what that big ones name is) and into high garendall with a certain spell
3--Gives the conjuror a weapon that kills all

Face it, although you do have to work for some, in other ways, your just making the cheating a bit less...well...cheating

Edit--:b isnt anything

Ahem, you aren't GIVEN anything. Even though some items are a bit cheap (coughSoLcough), nothing is free, especially that...

Alright, I see. The plug-in instructions were a tad sketchy on that, however it's still a no-go.
The issue is this: the plug-in comes up, I do check the box, the game does load. Then I hit "Start", the preamble runs, I get the name-your-self-no-one-else-is gonna box (you know, what's your name), then I hit ok. The game begins and I collapse at the south gate of Fantrima.
No choices, no descriptions, nada.
Gimme an idea here, lads.
If it's any help at all, this is the copy of Trinity from the Ambrosia CD, not the webpage... would that make a difference?

Thank you and adieú.

P.S. plugging your own plug-ins is fine, i used to do it a lot with my EVO plugs... live and let... 's kill voinians!

All the difference in the world. Do a "Get Info" on the trinity folder. I have a feeling it is around 0k. Look inside it; is there anything within it? I have a feeling it is completely empty of data.

The CD, unfortunately, shipped out with an empty Trinity folder. You will need to download the full version of Trinity from the (url="http://"http://www.ambrosiasw.com/games/pog/addons.html")addons(/url) section. You can grab Trinity (url="http://"http://www.ambrosiasw.com/cgi-bin/vftp/dl-redirect.pl/trinity_plugin.sit?path=pog/essentials&file;=trinity_plugin.sit")here(/url). It is a 15.44MB download, so if you're on a slow link it will take a while.

Once you have it, unstuff it and then grab the folder "(x) Trinity plugin" from within the "trinity plugin" folder and place it within your PoG->plugins folder. When you start up the game and check the box next to "(x) Trinity Plugin" then start menu ought to have the trinity symbol in the lower right hand corner(looks like 3 skulls in a triangluar formation).

Good luck. Let us know if you continue to have problems!

Well done, and thank you.
