    [​IMG] First time posting here... so please be kind.

    Right now I'm romancing Aerie... we've just been wed and it's before I exit the Pocket Plane to go kill Mellissan... my question:

    Is there some command or some variable that I can use to accelerate her birth? Or perhaps (preferably) jump right to it? I heard on Mud-Masters that setting the AeriePregnantTimer to 1 would acclerate it, but how much does it acclerate it?

    If anyone can answer any of the questions above it would be GREATLY appreciated and thanks for all who reply in advance.

    IIRC you have to wait 60 real time hours from the moment she announces her pregnancy, or something like that. So pause the game and go fly fishing for a weekend, and you should be a proud papa once you get back.

    Welcome to the boards..

    I think it was 6 hours, not 60. Sixty hours would make it impossible to see the birth... you can probably finish the expansion in 60 hours.

    [​IMG] I played the expansion for quite a long time and when I finished it, she was just starting to talk about the baby. (Far away from having it yet.)

    So it's quite possible that 60 hours is true.

    I just looked in the other thread dealing with this topic...and I don't know how to do hyperlinks, which is why I haven't done one...and indeed it says 60 hours.

    Not independently verifiable, of course..

    Each romancing dialog is on an out-of-game timer you cannot edit. it measures from the end of the most recent dialog to the beggining of the next. Aeries' romance dialogs take 45 mins to 1 hour long, romances do not occur in dungeons or 10 foot near a blue NPC, Hostiles must be out of sight, or dead, and it is 18 hours, thats how long it took me, before she has a baby, after announcing

    I may be wrong, as another group of people think it is 60 hours, hardly surprising really, thinking how long it takes to have a baby...
