gogoblender 3,072 Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Apparently there's a HUGE number of books in Sacred 2 ^^ And I just got one, yee haw! Have you guys gotten any yet? If you have, could you take a screenshot of the page from your book out of your log book like this here (As close to 1600x1200 resolution as possible please!): And add it to this thread. We could then begin compile a reading list for Ancaria! I've already typed out what my book gave me, and over time, slowly this entire list could be made into text which we'll keep alphabetized gogo Books of Ancaria Books of Magic Book 1 - General Conspectus of Magic Book 2 - Fire Magic Book 3 - Ice Magic Book 5 - T-Energy Books of Religion Book 1 - Kybele Book 2 - Testa, God of Science Book 3 - Forens Book 5 - Kuan - God of War Lore of Weaponry Book 2 - Swords Book 4 - Dual Wield Book 5 - Archery Book 6 - T-Energy The Lore of Monsters Volume 2 - How to Deal with Undead? A Guideline Volume 4 - Trolls (Picture submitted but needs to be typed) Volume 5 - Bengaresh Interesting Facts about Ancaria How to Beguile Aristocrats: Princesses (Picture submitted but needs to be typed) The Art of Cooking Book 2 - Dryad Cooking Book 3 - Nor Plat Book 4 - Table Manners and Etiquette Book 5 - Guide for a Successful Feast Book 6 - Ancient and Foreign Recipes Book 7 - Hunting Link to comment

gogoblender 3,072 Posted October 14, 2008 Author Share Posted October 14, 2008 aww, Pitunia, but thanks for the offer though. I'm really loving the books part of this game, I know they were a lot of fun in Sacred, and this time around looks to be just as good. Dang, lol...I had one just a few minutes ago, for Dragons...but I forgot about it when I had to reset the Sacred Demo.... lost ! gogo Link to comment

stubbie 21 Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Do you get any sort of bonus from reading books ? (apart from a much improved knowledge of Sacred and Ancaria ) stubbs Link to comment
gogoblender 3,072 Posted October 14, 2008 Author Share Posted October 14, 2008 Okay, I did a couple of 'em...whew..they're long I actually enjoyed typing them out... and wondering how Ascaron did this. It's an amazing idea. Have you guys read in entirety (lol, I ask because I now have to ) the books? They're wide in scope, the writing is pleasant, and boy, are they ever long! gogo p.s. First post in this thread now has titles that are actually links to SacredWiki Books where I'm typing everything into. p.s.s. I am now the bonnified expert on Ancarian Swordmaking and Hunting!

gogoblender 3,072 Posted October 15, 2008 Author Share Posted October 15, 2008 Schot, that's awesome, thank you. And I like the way you organized it all with titles per pic. It really helps when trying to put stuff into the wiki. TY gogo p.s. you guys should read some of the books, it's like a huge amount of Lore and History all in the game. This definitely gives heft to Sacred 2. Link to comment
gogoblender 3,072 Posted October 16, 2008 Author Share Posted October 16, 2008 Did these two tonight: Book 6 - Ancient and Foreign Recipes http://www.sacredwiki.org/index.php5/Sacre...%3F_A_Guideline gogo Link to comment
Schot 407 Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 Nice! You know. As much as I hate typing it's actually quite fun to have the opportunity to read them in the process. Very enjoyable to read. P.s. lol, I just started reading How to Deal with Undead? A Guideline and found it a very funny start. Very well done. Nice job Ascaron. Below is the first paragraph of the book: "He moved towards me - swaying, his body oddly twisted and dislocated. His staring squinting look appeared to go right through me. Some strange and indiscernible green liquid oozed from his mouth while he permanently attempted to speak. I drew my sword but then I realized it was not a zombie, it was the captain who was completely drunk on his way to his cabin." (from the travelogues of Nayjol the Adventurer) P.p.s Just finished typing several of the books. Whew! Link to comment
gogoblender 3,072 Posted October 16, 2008 Author Share Posted October 16, 2008 Nice work Schot! Just finished Bengaresh gogo Link to comment
Antitrust 32 Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 (edited) I put in Book 2 - Testa, God of Science (will do Kuan, God of War later). Sorry for messing up the Books of Religion history, I know now how the thing works And I think the formatting should show the title as it appears in the link, but feel free to edit that back. I also think we should keep at least some of the images in a single location, so I used link that looks into gogoblender's album. Just re-upload these pics there, they will appear in the wiki (or upload them somewhere and edit the wiki ). Resize them if need be, I can send tiffs or better jpegs if you prefer higher quality. Is there a specific resolution they should be in? On my monitor settings the pictures in the books crop to 281x375. edit: ok thanks for fixing that It looks much better now. I was unable to figure out how do you make the line under the section titles invisible, so I just posted the Kuan page as a copy of Testa, but with lines... I also added fake indents, not sure if that looks ok. Edited October 17, 2008 by Antitrust Link to comment
gogoblender 3,072 Posted October 17, 2008 Author Share Posted October 17, 2008 Nice additions, Antitrust The formatting of pic looks great. I've updated the Index of books here on the first post here as well. gogo Link to comment
