[LAN Servers Not Showing Up]

IMO, the firewall is still the #1 suspect. In the name of being more user-friendly, firewalls frequently do things you do not expect. Unplug your internet connection, turn off all firewalls (and anti-virus while you are at it) and then try again. If that works, then you know the firewall is to blame, if it does not, you have eliminated the firewall as the problem.

 

Tried, done and with many, many variations.

 

I am very confident that it's the very same problem that we had when we first played multi.

It was something along the lines that if some IP address has 255(or something that range, can't remember exactly) on it, it will not work, the symptoms are identical to that time too.

 

I believe I was helped to solve that problem on here DarkMatters, though the very posts I needed apparently have been deleted, so the fix is gone.

 

I'll try digging around a little more though, I just can't pass this good chance for a superb multiplayer experience.

[LAN Servers Not Showing Up]

Since my brother got a new laptop capable of playing Sacred 2, we decided to play multi over LAN.

 

The server(no matter which one of us made it) does not show up, and if it does, once in the server it instantly kicks the joining player out.

 

All ports have been forwarded, programs have been allowed to do as they please, yet the multi refuses to work.

 

Interestingly enough, the first time we played it when he got his new laptop, it worked perfectly, hasn't worked since.

 

Any help will be greatly appreciated and to solve these problems in the future, I will construct a troubleshooting guide to clear any and all problems related to Sacred 2 Fallen Angel and Sacred 2 Ice & Blood multiplayer, it's a fine time for someone to do so.

[Legendaries, new discovery?]

Let's see if I can mess around with Balance.txt and produce unique/set/legendary runes/potions/books+other stuff.

 

Perhaps I will discover something else that's fun too.

[Legendaries, new discovery?]

Just received legendary lava chunk as a drop.

 

This changes everything, it appears to be that random item bonuses are not limited to normal/magical/rare items and randomized items also can be legendary and unique, only one left is set items.

 

[Will add any further discoveries to this post.]

[Combat Art Modifications Restrictions]

How to disable it so I can have like both bronze/silver/gold modifications expect for Inquisitor's doppelganger and Shadow Warriors shadow veil modifications?

 

Also how does maximum character level in Balance.txt work? (Same rate of skill points/combat art rune threshold level etc.)

[Legendaries, new discovery?]

I also believe that unique items may display same three "grades".

 

I'll have to test this too after I figure out what values present what values.

 

[This appears to be true, just scored plain unique ring.]

The Balance.txt I have eliminates all other drops expect potions, uniques, sets and legendaries.

 

49 legendary items from single boss with only 1/3 of the original drop amount value IS impressive.

[Legendaries, new discovery?]

I believe I have made a new discovery concerning legendary items as I am able to produce plain and prefixed/suffixed legendaries.

Discuss.

[Modifying Combat Arts and understanding Flags - spells.txt]

Most of the lines are somewhat confusing.

If anyone could make little explanation out of them, it would be really appreciated.

 

Back to Starcraft 2

[Breaking Down Balance.txt for a few Legendaries per monster]

Has anyone figured out how to stop potion drops?

[Modifying Combat Arts and understanding Flags - spells.txt]

What is the txt file where you can edit combat art properties?

 

I though about making Magic Barrier 10000m long instead of 5.7m.

[Breaking Down Balance.txt for a few Legendaries per monster]

Getting closer to perfection, 28 Legendaries from one Gar'Colossus.

 

Now I have to access the Final boss for max leveled items.

[Is there any way to make so that all monsters that spawn are Champions or Bosses?]

The boss problem still insists, anyone know how to turn all monsters into random/certain bosses or possible Mini-Bosses?

[Breaking Down Balance.txt for a few Legendaries per monster]

(Yes, this is out of curiosity, I suppose I do it with every RPG there is. Same goes for modding, see I have a habit of insatiable modding hunger, no matter how good the mod is, I always hunger for more.)

 

Looks like it's working, nine Legendaries from one Gar"Colossus.

 

Though next none of them were maxed level items so I am bit tad dissapointed.

 

Does Crystal Regions boss drop maxed level items always?

 

>;P

[Is there any way to make so that all monsters that spawn are Champions or Bosses?]

So far what I have discovered about groupmax that with value of 100, max of groups seems to be around 20-30.

Monsters are also less spread, moving in 1-20-30 groups.

 

Going to test other values too.

[Is there any way to make so that all monsters that spawn are Champions or Bosses?]

2 actually makes all monsters bosses.

 

1 then should make all champions.

 

0 Normal

[Breaking Down Balance.txt for a few Legendaries per monster]

ZRareExpectation15 = 32768,
 ZRareExpectation14 = 16384,

 ZRareExpectation00 = 1,

 

I tried making it with power of two but I still don't get any Legendaries.

 

Anyone have a better list?

[Is there any way to make so that all monsters that spawn are Champions or Bosses?]

groupmaxcount = 0,

probabilityforelite = 0.000000,

rank = 0,

 

Those three interest me quite much.

 

Is elite=champion?

 

How does groupmaxcount operate? Anyone know it's max threshold?

 

Rank is also very interesting.

[Is there any way to make so that all monsters that spawn are Champions or Bosses?]

Is there any way to make so that all monsters that spawn are champions?

 

Also is it possible to make so that all monster are some bosses?

 

BONUS

What is the limit of Monster_density?

I tried 50000, went well but it was barely different from 2000.

Also tried 2147483648 but then no monsters spawned.

[Breaking Down Balance.txt for a few Legendaries per monster]

So I tried messing around Balance.txt but I couldn't get it so that you get at least few Legendaries per monster.

 

Also seems that I am getting way too many potions.

 

Anyone have remedy or the Balance.txt for so that I will be getting more Legendaries and less/no potions?

I already tried looking around forums but couldn't find anything.

 

Thanks in advance.
