Graal 2002 Manual (unofficial)

aylad · #1 10-06-2002, 03:33 AM

I have written a manual explaining many of the controls and basic concepts of playing 2002. This is not a walkthrough.
It just explains some of the basic things that new players have trouble figuring out.

I hope it is as useful to someone as it would have been to me a few months ago.

Let me know if there's something I need to edit/add.

If one of the mods would care to make this sticky, and thus easily available to new players, I would be much indebted.

You can ALSO get to the kingdom islands via the underground dungeons.
So boats arent the only way

Only way for new players who haven't leveled up much.... Yeah, I forgot about that.

Probably won't change that in the file, it's nearly-accurate enough that it doesn't hurt anything. A few surprises are nice in a game anyway.

I hope there will be a databse of sorts soon. With locations and stats of all weapons, maybe lists of recipes etc. But I understand how nobody would be motovated to do it. Maybe people should pull in money to offer to anyone who makes a good quality database.

zell12 · #5 10-07-2002, 12:00 AM

I'll make a DB for the locations of diffrent shops, towns, caves, workshops... etc... Erm, just because im bored...

IlyaDraven · #6 10-07-2002, 08:22 AM

well how about all of us come thogher and make a site w/ 2k2 faqs and such. most sites i nkwo of have benn discontinued

Admins · #7 10-09-2002, 05:53 AM

Good manual, sticked it, may be it should be placed in the graal2002 information forum?

zell · #8 10-09-2002, 06:00 AM

Mabey when he explains more in it.

AlexH · #9 10-09-2002, 06:02 AM

Rather helpful that was.

Never knew I could set keys to specific items.
Makes life much more easier now.

I DID try asking nicely, I emailed, I forum PM'ed, I asked Stefan, I sent in a support center thingy. This is the first time you've even acknowledged that there is a PROBLEM.

Androk2k1 · #14 10-26-2002, 11:15 AM

:P :P :P

I almost kind of feel sorry for you, I guess.

The council failed because of lack of cooperation from the Players.

Zigidias · #21 11-11-2002, 09:54 AM

what is (or was) the council?

baywatch1 · #22 11-30-2002, 06:33 PM

Graal 3D is targeted towards high end PC users and uses a very advanced 3D engine. Graal 3D will be available in 1st Quarter 2003 as a Preview to VIP Members More details will be available to the public once as we prepare the game for beta-testing.

From the graal website.... Let's see when is the end of the 1st quarter....

Oh, i'ts nearly the end of the 1st quarter now!@$!@
Gimmie preview?

I see nothing wrong with holding www.graalonline.com to it's public statements. That may very well be what makes or breaks them.

Are you a VIP member? It said that it would be available to VIP .. o.O If you are, and you haven't gotten the preview, then .. hmm. That's a problem.

Don't ask me to define it, that's Graal's job. You should make a topic on this in the main forum.

So your saying there is a downloadable preview I missed out on?

No, there are just some old, old, versions that got leaked out a while ago (take a look at Stefan's sig), they where nothing like the current Graal 3D though.

Kaiser2 · #34 03-25-2003, 09:48 PM

I always thought he made that from some other game where you an make a ustomizable character and it was 3-D and then he turned it into a piture and put it in his sig :o

NovaNET · #35 03-31-2003, 03:33 AM

We need a new upto date manual with all weapons and items etc. maybe some quest guides.

Kaiser2 · #36 04-28-2003, 07:49 PM

My suggestion: figure it out for yourself, it feels much more satisfying than following a guide to do everything.

Amen to that.

You know what?

I'm taking my "help site" down .. I didn't do much there anyway.

I'd rather help people out in-game.. and a help site is like a cheat guide or summat. You're right, Kaiser.

Kaiser2 · #38 04-29-2003, 01:04 AM

I was thinking of making one of my own, but then I thought "eh, they would never go there anyone, much less understand, and their questions would never cease anyway."

TB3 · #39 06-11-2003, 04:16 AM

Im not taking credit for the manual I only revised it and added a bunch of stuff

. This might help you all out a little more if you have just started.

aylad · #40 06-15-2003, 08:01 PM

Excellent, TB3!

If you don't mind I'll use what you added in my new draft, giving you credit of course.
