Greetings, No, that behaviour was not intended and is a result of as sad lore/focus limitation. The issue should be gone with the latest version of the Addendum(you'll have to redownload the archive). Link to comment

Judging by the few test runs I've done with your character, drop patterns behave correctly. In the Addendum uniques are tier 13, sets are tier 14, legendaries are tier 15. Which means you'll find a certain amount of unique items with the moderate 'magic find bonus', but higher tier items require either extensive grinding, a much higher MF bonus, or a high-level Bargaining skill. You can also reliably obtain set items via quest completion, therefore I wouldn't recommend skipping the Bronze difficulty. Link to comment

Just a question on the types of things, and specifically on colors. Uniki 13 is second - class brown, 14 is first-class brown and green-set, but 15 is first-class green, but there are no orange ones anywhere, and they don't fall from normal mobs, only from bosses or for quests, did I get it right:) Link to comment

Tier 13 - Uniques - Brown - Monster drops(very rare), can be bought from shops at Bargaining Mastery Tier 14 - Sets - Green - Monster drops(extra rare), occasional quest completion drops, can be bought from shops at Bargaining Mastery Tier 15 - Legendaries - Orange - Boss monster drops, can be bought from shops at Bargaining Mastery Link to comment

Popular Post Flix 5,162 Posted October 6, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 6, 2020 I realized today that you did something remarkable that no one except another modder would ever appreciate or even notice. You went through every piece of player equipment that included part of the character's skin, and removed the skin. Now all equipment is placed directly on the player's body rather than replicating/overriding various body fragments. The base skin will always show. In other words all custom skins for characters just got massively more simplified. One would no longer have to edit hundreds of armor textures to ensure consistency. I'm impressed. 1 1 Link to comment

The Dark Elf Mode would work correctly! We could. I would have to gather up all affected models and textures, as well as make the required edits to surface.txt and itemtype.txt, then package it all together. I'm going to be frank, even that part would take a while so it will probably be some time before that happens. I am in the middle of adapting the next EE release now. 1 Link to comment
Hooyaah 2,961 Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Honestly Ben, I would rather you finish what you are already working on first, especially because there are players waiting for it. Only afterward and when you have the time and inclination would I appreciate your slow and methodical effort on the "skinless" armor. Focusing on one project at a time is always easier, at least it is in my own experience. So much of the skin which is currently rendered along with the armor doesn't match up seamlessly with the actual model. This is especially evident with the High Elf's body art/tattoos. Often, the skin shades are a bit off as well. I am cognizant and respectful of the fact that you actually have a busy and full life; so, if you can work on this eventually, that would be nice.

Flix 5,162 Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 @dimitrius154 Do you have the current list of spell tokens that are now boosted by aspect lores? I'm getting around to testing D2F. Right off the bat I suggest attribute bonuses should not be boosted. If they are, then it could still be rebalanced, but the spell base values and scaling should be drastically reduced to avoid gaining insane Intelligence and Willpower boosts. And would there happen to be a handy list somewhere of all the FX? Such as what might be assigned in the "fxTypeSpell" line spell entries. Link to comment

The lore skill effect is a progressive increase by a percentage. The attrbute bonus tokens are flat value, so it's logical for the lore skill to affect them. I suggest setting token values to reasonably low values so as to avoid extreme increases at high CA levels. 2 hours ago, Flix said: And would there happen to be a handy list somewhere of all the FX?

All usable visuals are more, or less represented in the Addendum's spells.txt. Mind you, that Balor, Afrit and Sakkara transformation visuals are mesh- and animation-based.

contra 8 Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 What unbearable skill changes have been made recently? Make my High Elf Skill Scarching Wave spread speed too slowly. In addition, the 4GB full installation package capacity is not a small number, whether the update can set a basic version, a small-scale update only contains patches, instead of let us download the complete version again and again. And give the update date log, so that I can choose freely, if an update is not suitable for me, I can choose to roll back to a certain historical version. Link to comment
contra 8 Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Raging Nimbus will not stop casting spells. The current game is completely unplayable. Before the correction, can I provide the previous Spell.txt separately? I overwritten and installed the patch, but did not keep the previous files Link to comment

I suggest setting token values to reasonably low values so as to avoid extreme increases at high CA levels. That's reasonable and can be balanced by lower token values. But, it is worth considering, with much lower token values, the difference between lacking / possessing an Aspect Lore skill will become much more pronounced. Characters lacking the skill may find themselves much weaker than anticipated. Perhaps this is desirable after all, just something to be aware of. Perusing the list, the only one I'm not so sure about are the duration tokens. I like to have base durations and boosts from modifications locked in at fixed values, especially in D2F. I also plan any scaling / cooldown reductions so that the duration will not exceed the cooldown. That is one that I'm not sure I could adequately balance through the scripts, if the Lore scaling remains. Link to comment
Insomnia 3 Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Good evening dear developer. Tell me if any major updates to the mod are planned next, or just minor edits? And such a question in the header of the topic indicates the date that the mod was last updated on September 14. Is this floating date relevant or does it not change to understand how I will see that the mod has been updated?! Link to comment

But I do see the effect of the spread speed increase mod doing the exact opposite of what it's supposed to do, interesting. 1 hour ago, contra said: Raging Nimbus will not stop casting spells. Supposedly, this sentence means, that the duration of the CA does not expire. It does and is true to what is shown in the CA tooltip. 58 minutes ago, Flix said: Perusing the list, the only one I'm not so sure about are the duration tokens. Neither am I, but it's worth a try. In case that can't be balanced, I'll remove the token from the list. Edited October 9, 2020 by dimitrius154 Link to comment
dimitrius154 614 Posted October 9, 2020 Author Share Posted October 9, 2020 (edited) Another update. The "et_duration_sec" has been removed from the list of the lore affected tokens due to adverse effects the multiplication has on some SpellClass functions. For example, prolonging the duration actually decreases the Scorching Wave spread speed once the "et_quicken_boost" is activated. 2 hours ago, contra said: In addition, the 4GB full installation package capacity is not a small number, whether the update can set a basic version, a small-scale update only contains patches, instead of let us download the complete version again and again. I was considering splitting up the archive, but since updates are rare, it's not worth the bother. Oh, and everyone is supposed to have a fast internet connection nowadays and those that don't are peasants plebes. Or least Microsoft thinks so. Edited October 9, 2020 by dimitrius154 Link to comment
contra 8 Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 I found a backup of an earlier version on another computer. Replace the file s2logic.dll (modified date September 14, 2020), the game now looks normal. In my country, many websites cannot be accessed without using a paid VPN, so 4GB is a big problem.
