Disclaimer: just because this is "of the week" doesn't mean that it's weekly - simply that the minimum time between them will be one week. Now..

To start things off, here's a spin on our favourite unicorn boss. He's still designed as a level 1 boss, but he's bulkier than the NES version, and can't be subdued with any weapon other than the sword.

http://www.greyfire.org/~l/Miniboss.zip

All script files and resources are included in the Zip file.

Next week: Maybe a new Manhandla? (Well, not really - I require the ability to stack an FFC with both "Singular" and "Strike" flags to make a genuine Manhandla. So maybe a Giant Buzz Blob or something...)

UPDATE: Converted to ZScript.

Like with your script tutorial quest, i can't open or unzip the folder after its downloaded. :(

I'm curious, what do you use to write your txt files? When I open them in notepad, the line breaks show up as a jumble of unrecognized characters, so all the scripts are just one really long line. I have to re-add them myself.

_L_ is on a mac, I think. Use Wordpad to view it. Seems to work just fine in there.

Well, ah, I've now remade the Zip file using my brother's Windows computer. If it still doesn't work...

I still can't get it to work. Perhaps you can copy & paste the script into a post itself & then i can copy & paste the script into a file of my own & insert it into zquest myself & apply it to an aquamentus. Does it use the same tiles as a reqular aquamentus?

Er, no.
