    From JAHMAS@1:109/500 to ALL on Tuesday, January 16, 2007 14:47:36

    Well I had an interesting experience which I think was caused by an IGM "Turgeon's House"? I used the IGM and afterwards noticed that my gender was changed from male to female in the game. This has continued to hold true. I actually think it was funny but I don't think it was intentional. Has anyone else had this problem?

    Its not a glitch. That's the result of asking the Fairies in the bedroom closet for a Sex Change. Option #5. You must have not paid attention to which
    wish you asked them to grant.

    Alternately, you must have tried to Catch one of the Fairies. They punish those who try in two ways. You lose all HitPoints but 1, and you are swapped to the opposite sex. In Turgeon's House, you NEVER get to catch a fairy. That's the way Mike Ciesiensky designed the routine to work, and I've seen no reason to change that.

    There's plenty of igms, some are mine, that let you buy a Fairy with Gems, or wish for one. I've added some new code to the Closet event that warns that the
    Fairies can't be captured, and that informs the player to tries to do so that they are swapped to the opposite sex.

    There are various ways to change your Gender back in LORD. But they all involve usage of LADY Scripts in the LORD Forest -- Gordon Lewicky wrote Sex Change; using a LORD Player Database Editor (which you can't do in a BBS Lord game unless you're the sysop); or using various IGMs.

    1) Turgeon's House as noted, has a Sex Change wish in the Closet event. However, since the igm is random, no one is GUARANTEED that their wish will be granted, OR that they will see the Fairies.

    2) The Village Hut. You can ask the Village Idiot for a Sex Change.

    Those are some examples of how you can get your character's Gender changed back. And next time you have a problem with Turgeon's House, remember to write
    to me directly please. Donald.

    I had a cow the other day when I was looking for my LORD registration, I seem to have lost it. Is there any way to retrieve it from the current games I have running or is it recorded somewhere?

    depends on what version you're running.

    i guess you could ask the current developer for help, or get a new registration from metro gameport
