And when will we be able to get our hands on the NEW and Improved Map, Shot?

Yeah I would be interested in that too, because I already tried for the CM-Patch but could not find anything. So I would guess it is hardcoded somewhere. If anyone finds a HEX for this please share.

Could you describe your problem a little more? Is it connected to one specific CA or all around regardless what is set into the combo?

Well you still have to hunt down all the different tooltips don't you?

You can find these Backgrounds in your Sacred 2\system\loading\ Folder.

Thanks, I meant more along lines of Admin here making it obvious that it is released, by putting an announcement at top of the forums. That is not up to us, but a task for Shot or the Mods here. I would gladly send them a PN once we upped the next release, so they can announce it if they choose to do so.

Until we figured out the global.res there is no way to edit the dialogs into the int. versions. The dialogs we have for the german global.res seem to be missing in yours. (This was a unfinished quest we unlocked and made doable.) The plot is as follows: The first questgiver is afraid they may have accidentally summoned a terrible demon (its called "Succubus" in case that one did not make it into translation either), insert the standard wipe-out-the-world-ploy here. You try to defeat it, but you were not able to, since in the last second of fighting him it teleports away. You are then sent out on quests to collect eremites and the ingredients they need to "tame" the demon in a dark ritual. The finale, after you collected the "Basket of demonic Sweets" is the ritual marcus scripted from scratch. As reward for helping, you recieve the legendary and are made honorary member of the "Order of Sakkara". (You character figures Sakkara must be a very high level Demon unknowing that he might have helped creating/harnessing him in this very quest...)

Well I found this: Ragezone Luna Server Discussions Maybe I will try to set up my own luna server, with Blackjack and Hookers...as Bender would phrase it. *g*

Anyone got it working through a proxy? I searched the off. Luna Forum but found nothing of value...

I hope I fixed the sudden death in the crystal plains. (Huge CC reflection issue with one type of boars.) It will be included in the next release.

So there were no dialogs for the entire Quest? This would mean the german global.res has a different version state (missing some pieces of translation) than the english one. Damn... The Harpies and Elementals are there for the Dark Rituals quest, yes. Sometimes they slip over to octo, we may have to tweak the sector spawns a little bit...

Hi Sanekur, you can search for your bosses taskcreature id in the quest.txt and set him to "persistent = 1,". (Simply look up his id in the creatures.txt and search for creature = [Number you found], in the quest.txt) That should do it.

Yes he is the big bad chief boss of the Dark Rituals Quest we recently unlocked. I pimped him a bit to make it a challenge. Now we found out he is used in every wave of this quest as killtarget, which was of course never intended. We found and fixed it already. With the next release everything is back peachy. Try to find the nice Dark Rituals Quest, which is located somewhere in the orc Region...questreward is a wonderful new item, nowhere else to be found ingame.

Can you describe how the demons look that are spawned? I think this might be related to the new quest we implemented...marcus, please crosscheck the cids of the killtargets...ohh nevermind...I'll just type an report about this. EDIT: Problem is found and will be fixed in the next release. Thank you for reporting this.

Happy Birthday, Shot! Have a Blast, then try to survive the next morning.

You don't need to do so. Just press the spoiler buttons until you reach the download link called "Download Sacred2 Launcher". CU Marcus Updated Post #1. Link works now. Sorry for the delay.

Thank you. I will have a look at those. Small note on this: You will get a 30% chance on critical hits with the meteors on ca level 200. If I increase it just to +0.2%/level, you will recieve a 50% chance on said ca level. I think this would be too much. I am afraid there is no smaller increment (<1) to that modifier. I find the report on the dm_transforms very interesting. I think I have enough knowlegde on the creature system, to make a few adjustments and tests. Will take a while though...

Thats quite a lot. Well lets see: Do you have any suggestions for the replacement of the non-working boni on the aspect sets? (Btw. Why does the Str-Bous on the DR greaves not work?) On the CAs, Spells, buffs etc: That is not fixable. I guess it is somewhat related to the Throw-star classifier. Please elaborate. Transformation of what? Which spell? (I dont know that much about the DM, sorry.) Not sure if anything can be done about the number of targets hit. I will have a look however. The rest of the spell-related stuff seems doable. No problem there. On the Legendaries: Sorry, we won't increase the overall chance for finding them. This would lead to a huge wave of legendaries on the market and could be considered "cheating" by our own standards. There are a lot of people doing boss runs, and they would rack 'n' stack the stuff in no time. So no. I will have a look at the droprate issues for the mentioned setitems, to find out if there are irregularities. Esp. the Niokastes Wall problem.

Nice... Will be interesting to see how this one turns out.

Not sure on 1, but I will have a look at 2.

Yeah, I got reports on those. I tried to fix a bug with them not giving nearly enough experience, and inadvertedly made them stronger in the process. It will be fixed in the next relase. That's a promise.

I put it into the bugtracker. Marcus will have a look at it.

I thought marcus already overdid that one. Are you playing with the CM?

You just need to have Ice & Blood version 2.65.1 or 2.65.2 installed. No other preparations necessary. I edited post one in this Thread. You can find everything you want to know there.

Yes I started to annotate some of it on the second tab. I will create an english version of my spreadsheet, when I have the time to translate it. Most of it is guesswork anyway atm., because I dont know half of the boni myfself.
