Passive Cooldowns 1.7.0

Cleaner Item Descriptions 1.7.0

This is a fork of Better Item Descriptions that simply makes the tooltip larger and uses long phrases instead of abbreviations.
It also works with zOmnibus's Inscription Compare feature.
- sorts all stats by category
- item's passive power always the same blue color
- item's usable power - always yellow
- all rarity categories are displayed
- encumbrance value moved to the right under item name
- "on hit" powers always green
- "Stats" have an orange highlight and placed before others

If you hold ALT before mousing over an item, you can see its vanilla description.

If you ask what part of a description means, everyone gets to laugh at you.

However, feel free to suggest better phrasing.

Easy Map v2 1.6.0

Description
LeoMaven: I just turn off Version checker.

Original Easy Map mod by Codefly
---
UPD: I just fixed checker and remove pop-up window about newest game version and change Legend color to black :)

This addon replaces ToME's map display with one that's more in-line with other games. You can drag the mouse to scroll, use the mouse wheel to zoom in and out, and left-click to set the currently viewed area (instead of accidentally traveling there, which can still be done via right-click menu). It also shows the viewport rectangle on the map, and if your computer is powerful enough, you can even show the actual terrain instead of the confusing color blocks, or make the walls red to easily find paths you have yet to explore. The player and zone exits are also displayed as icons on the map. Additionally, if you travel via the map and stop unexpectedly (i.e., you ran into your golem), a friendly dialog will pop up asking if you'd like to continue to your destination.

Обновление: Я просто пофиксил чекер версии мода и убрал всплывающее окошко о новой версии игры и изменил цвет легенды на черный

Мод заменяет карту игры на нечто более схожее с другими играми. Вы можете перемещать карту мышкой, приближать или отдалять карту колесиком и устанавливать текущий обзор левым кликом мыши (вместо того, что бы случайно переместиться туда, как было ранее). Карат способна отображать реальную местность ландшафта и окрашивать непроходимые места в красный цвет, что бы проще найти дорогу.
Выходы из зоны так же отображаются на карте в виде значков, кроме того реализован всплывающий диалог при перемещении с помощью карты.

Easy Map v2 1.6.0

Ashes of Urh'Rok 1.7.4

Official Expansion!

Many in Maj'Eyal have heard of "demons", sadistic creatures who appear seemingly from nowhere, leaving a trail of suffering and destruction whereever they go. Their Fearscape floats far above the skies, watching and waiting, but not idly; their agents scout the land, their legions build up their forces, and their scholars develop new spells and strategies. As the barrier between our worlds begins to crack under their scrutiny, helpless Eyalites have begun to disappear, whisked up to serve as their slaves and playthings. They imbue these victims with magical powers to better survive the ensuing stresses - can you use your new-found abilities to escape the legions of Mal'Rok?

Features:

  • Start with a new class, the Doombringer! These avatars of demonic destruction charge into battle with massive two-handed weapons, cutting swaths of firey devastation through hordes of opponents. Armed with flame magic and demonic strength, they delight in fighting against overwhelming odds, softening up the crowd with waves of fire, then feeding on the flames and suffering of their surroundings to stay alive while quickly reducing any group to a pile of ash and gore.
  • Unlock a new class, the Demonologist, with an all-new item enhancement mechanic! Bearing a shield and the magic of the Spellblaze itself, these melee-fighting casters can grow demonic seeds from their fallen enemies. Imbue these seeds onto your items to gain a wide array of new talents and passive benefits, and summon the demons within them to fight on your side! Ever looked at a gigantic demon-cursed minotaur and wished it was on your side for once? Well, now you CAN summon one to pound your foes into paste while you cast devastating spells from afar, or call forth a squad of Fire Imps to pelt your enemies to death while they exhaust themselves on your impenetrable defenses! Demons have persistent health, making them a little more precious than disposable necromancer skeletons or summoner beasts, but can be revived from death nonetheless.
  • Two new zones, with all-new art, foes, and bosses! You've seen the plains of the Fearscape before, now see the lairs and headquarters of the demons themselves!
  • Over 10,000 words of written lore to find! The demons were once an enlightened, peaceful race, hailing from a distant planet known as Mal'Rok; learn what drove them to plot Eyal's eternal torture! Discover monuments to each of the demonic species and noteworthy individuals, showing the place of honor each has among them! Get a glimpse into the culture and daily lives of these sadistic invaders and their brainwashed thralls!
  • Unlock a new race, Doomelves: Shalore who've taken to the demonic alterations especially well, corrupting their typical abilities into a darker form. Blink away to safety, transform into a shadowy dúathedlen to hide in the shadows or prey on your foes with blasts of darkness, use your new resilience to soak up status effects and critical hits, and assault your enemies' minds to leave them unsteady in combat!
  • Between the aforementioned classes and Doomelves, a whopping 75 new talents!
  • Unlock two new cosmetic options! You know you've always wanted demon-horns.
  • Two new events, appearing anywhere in Eyal!
  • 20 new artifacts, with unique and interesting effects. Collect the Obsidian Treasures to amass more and more power! Slip your hands into the Will of Ul'Gruth and watch your sweeping blows smash down walls! Wear a giant hideous hell-mouth as a fashionable belt!
  • 7 new achievements! Conquer the worst Urh'Rok's forces can throw at you, and hang their metaphorical skulls from your profile page!

Ashes of Urh'Rok 1.7.4

Melinda on the Map 1.7.0

Places the Sect of Kryl-Feijan event on the map as a zone entrance rather than an undetectable encounter.

Melinda on the Map 1.7.0

Embers of Rage 1.7.4

Official Expansion!

One year has passed since the one the Orcs call the "Scourge from the West" came and single-handedly crushed the Orc Prides of Grushnak, Vor, Gorbat, and Rak'Shor.  The Allied Kingdoms, now linked by farportal to their distant, long-lost Sunwall allies, have helped them conquer most of Var'Eyal.  The few remnants of the ravaged Prides are caged...  but one Pride remains.  Kruk Pride, isolated on an island, is the last orcish settlement that stands; they, too, face their impending doom.  The Sunwall has blockaded the only exit point from the island, and now, the technologically advanced civilization of Steam Giants have come down from the mountains to take their homeland with machines and weaponry unlike anything else on Eyal.  Kruk Pride has reverse-engineered their technology before; their only hope is to do it again and rise up against the Pride's foes.
 

Features:

  • Explore a whole new campaign from level 1 to 50, one year after the events of the original Tales of Maj'Eyal campaign. Liberate the Orcs (or die trying) by rising up against the Sunwall, the Steam Giants of Atmos, and other dangers that may lie in wait...
  • Play as one of three new races: the battle-hardened Orcs, the brutal Yetis, and the unstoppable Whitehooves. Discover their stories, their pains, their hopes... and their awesome racial powers!
  • Risk your life in over 20 unique zones! Explore the ruins of a lost city, lay siege to the Sunwall forces at the Gates of Morning, and raid the Steam Giants' mining quarry - each has its own unique foes and hazards, leading each to feel and play different from the others.
  • Play as one of the four new tinker classes: Gunslingers, Sawbutchers, Psyshots and Annihilators! Plus a class evolution: Technomancers! Crush and rend your foes with heavy metal, electrocute and immolate them with your gadgets, charge across the battlefield or nimbly strafe in style - each plays differently, and none provide any shortage of ways to slay your foes.
  • Master steam technology to build powerful tinkers to augment your equipment. Need to close in a bit quicker? Turn your boots into rocket boots! Having a hard time deciding whether to shoot someone or stab them? Build a Hand Cannon into your gloves, or deploy a Weapon Automaton to do the stabbing for you! If you have a problem, steamtech has a solution, usually involving explosions; with over 80 different powerful contraptions to craft, enjoy unparalleled versatility and trying something different with every playthrough.
  • Master the tactical uses of over 140 talents! Fire bouncing trick-shots and psychic-infused shots, use your steamsaws as shields or wheels, terrify your foes with long mechanical arms - there are no "boring" talents here, everything has its own special applications and properties!
  • Use advanced technology in the world of Eyal! Burrow through sand, plant bombs to destroy tunnels, and discover that you aren't alone in using it...
  • Infusions and runes are for puny humans; implant new medical injectors to pump an array of experimental chemicals into your body! Injectors can use any (infinitely reusable) salve in your inventory as long as they're off their cooldown, giving you versatility you've wished you could get with a couple of inscriptions.
  • Loot over 70 new and powerful artifacts. Pump lead into foes with big guns, quick guns, and explosive guns! Shred them with saws that maim, saws that thirst for blood, and saws that aren't really saws! Violate common sense by strapping a rocket to your back and calling it a jetpack!
  • Enjoy dying in horrible and exotic ways at the hands (or claws, jaws, guns...) of over 140 new creatures! Not mere piles of stats and chain-stuns, these foes will provide unique challenges - suffer the Sunwall's newest cosmic spells, the new breeds of ritches that infest and multiply, the Steam Giants' elaborate defense systems, and find new strategies to adapt to each!
  • Earn a trunkload of achievements! Have your accomplishments recognized for liberating the Orcish people, displaying exceptional mercy or cruelty, or showing your prowess with impressive feats! Give a boss a fate worse than death, show Sunwall forces how frustrating it is to fight a Radiant Horror as a paladin, come out on top against impossible odds, display a suicidal lack of situational awareness, and wear a badge of pride or shame for each!
  • Read roughly 27,000 words of new lore to immerse yourself in the world! Learn how things have changed since the Scourge's campaign, feel hatred and/or pity for your foes, uncover grand schemes and sinister plots, and notice the elaborate connections between Var'Eyal's numerous factions. Every zone has a story behind it, and every story ties into a bigger picture; enjoy a tale of horror and humor, of intrigue and glory, of despair and hope.
  • Earn the right to use the classic (and Ashes of Urh'Rok) classes in Embers of Rage, and the new tinker classes in Maj'Eyal! Play a Brawler in the East to fulfill your life-long dream of suplexing an entire nation of giants, or play a Sawbutcher in Maj'Eyal to shred through Dreadfell in a whirlwind of sawblades and steam!

Improved Combat Text v2 Custom Edit 1.6.0

This is a custom edit of the "Improved Combat Text v2" mod. All credit for the original work goes to to the original mod by Codefly
and credit for maintaining it up to v2 goes to LeoMaven
This description is also shamelessly ripped from LeoMaven's page.

Description

This addon replaces ToME's floating combat text:
- Shows the damage type (lightning, etc.) as icons or text!
- Text moves in a consistent direction and should be much easier to read than ToME's default for a variety of reasons.
- Can group damage for an entire player turn, or by every action taken - choose how much information you want to see!
- Various font sizes to choose from
- Various font coloring options (color by major damage type, use the default red / green, etc.)
- Text duration can be changed to fit your play style.
Icon credit for this addon goes to Lorc.

Custom Edit

The original addon is great, but I was always frustrated with the excessive amount of floating talent text and other garbage that just wasn't relevant to combat.
All of the yellow lines drowned out the actual combat damage numbers and it made me not want to use it. This custom edit gives you an option in the settings area to disable this text, and it is off by default.

Note for LeoMaven or CodeFly

If either of you want to just steal my code and put it in your addons that is completely fine with me.
I don't really want to maintain this long term if I don't have to so feel free to just update your own stuff and let me know. I'll take my addon down if there is no reason for it to exist.

Turn Separators v2 1.6.0

Description
This is my improved version of Turn Separators mod. writed by David Forrester (aka codefly). It's still add separators -> "--------"
"Have you ever noticed that the newlines in ToME's battle log don't always correspond to where you took your turn? This addon places "--------" turn separator lines at the exact points you made a move so that you can easily tell what has taken place since your last move, and what text corresponds to the turn before that"

I just fixed OoDChecker. This was good idea with update mod in a time, but ...

Select your Escorts 1.7.0

Allows you to choose which escorts you will encounter at the start of the game.
You may change the future encounters in the game menu (Esc).

There is an option to choose a random escort in case you just wanted to guarantee some unlocks before continuing with the base game's behavior.

Note: You're only supposed to be able to choose the lost tinker once. (Must have the Embers of Rage DLC and unlocked by playing in the Orcs campaign)
Note: Unfortunately the only time that addons can get the possible escort types is after the random escort quest is assigned.
This means escorts added by other addons will not be available for selection, but will still be possible to find using the random selection.

To reach me faster, please leave a message on the Steam Workshop page. I don't get notifications on te4.org so I may take longer to reply.

Enhanced Object Compare 1.7.0

Improves the "Press <control> to compare" functionality for objects.  New features:

  • When pressing <control>, a note at the top of the text will tell you which object in your equipment is being compared against the current item.
  • While holding <control>, tapping <shift> will cycle through the objects in your equipment that the current item can be compared to.  Useful when wearing two rings, dual-wielding, or using the second weapon set.
  • (new in v3) Runes and inscriptions in your inventory or store inventories can be compared via <control> to corresponding inscriptions on your body.

Also available as part of the ZOmnibus Addon Pack and ZOmnibus Lite.

Verbose Enemies 1.3.1

Makes the monsters of Eyal somewhat more talkative...and prone to insulting you. Featuring taunts from Gaslamp Games' roguelike Dungeons of Dredmor! Also now featuring the EXTENSIVE taunt collection from the iconic Dredmor mod, Death By A Thousand Taunts. This mod was created by Deeborm, and is only included with their approval. Three cheers for Deeborm! Relive your dredmor adventures in the world of Eyal.

You can also add your own taunts! To do this create a file named verbose_user_defined_taunts.cfg and place it in your settings folder where it can be friends with all the other .cfg files. Inside this file put:
verbose_user_defined_taunts = {"I'm a taunt! ", "Your taunt here! ", "Taunts everywhere, taunts everywhere "}
except with your taunts. Just make sure they're all comma separated and in quotation marks. Additionally, due to something weird in how the the speech is displayed a small bit of the final character can sometimes be cut off. Add a space before the closing quotation mark to head this off. After that save it and enable custom taunts from the settings menu in-game!

All taunts (base Dredmor taunts, Deeborm's extended dredmor taunts, and custom taunts) can be toggled from the in-game settings, in the Misc tab.

    Better Item Description 1.7.4

    This addon makes items description easier to read and determine on a glance it's usefulness
    - sorts all stats by category - DPS/DEF/MISC
    - item's passive power always the same blue color (not a random blue-yellow-pink-green)
    - item's usable power - always yellow
    - all rarity categories are displayed
    - encumbrance value moved to the right under item name
    - "on hit" powers always green
    - "Stats" have an ornage highlight and placed before others because it's most important one
    - Removed many extra-explain details, which any veteran player would not want to read each time
    for example, stat "S.pwr/crit" shorten from "Spellpower on spell critical (stacks up to 3 times)"
    means you do remember that it can stack only 3 times, and is not so super important anyway
    - DLC supported - Orcs/Ashes
    - few bug-fixes along the way

    Most important thing to remember
    - Requirements only shown for those you don't meet. If you want to see all reqs - hold CTRL
    - "Phasing" stat means - "Damage Shield penetration", the name was taken from the source and looks good to me, and short enough
    - The "-" minus sign at the end of stat mean immunity or reduction of some sort, for example "Blind-" = "Blindness immunity",
    - "Max.summ" = Max wilder summons
    - "Summ.HP.reg" = Life regen bonus (wilder-summons)
    - "Def/telep" = Defense after a teleport
    - "Res/telep" = Resist all after a teleport
    - "Dur/telep" = New effects duration reduction after a teleport

    it's not recommended to use this mod if you'r new to the game

    Better Item Description 1.7.4

    Quick Transmo Chest Management 1.6.7

    Adds a new key bind to transmogrify things faster. Currently, hitting the key on an item in the transmog chest puts it into your normal inventory, while hitting the key on an item in your normal inventory immediately transmogs it with no confirmation. The key bind only works if you have a transmog chest and only if the selected item is transmog-able.
    The default key bind is Shift + Enter.
    The key bind can be found in the key bindings menu under the Inventory category.

    I got annoyed at how slow transmog is and made this. I'll probably make its behavior configurable in a future update.

    Forbidden Cults 1.7.4

    Official Expansion!

    Not all adventurers seek fortune, not all that defend the world have good deeds in mind.
    Lately the number of sightings of horrors have grown tremendously. People wander off the beaten paths only to be found years later, horribly mutated and partly insane, if they are found at all. It is becoming evident something is stirring deep below Maj'Eyal.
    That something is you.

    Forbidden Cults is a big expansion for Tales of Maj'Eyal to let you explore the horrors that lurk beneath the surface, to delve in long lost knowledge and lore and as usual to die a lot!


    Forbidden Cults makes two new classes available to play:

    • Writhing One: Give in to the corrupting forces and turn yourself gradually into an horror, summon horrors to do your bidding, shed your skin and melt your face to assault your foes. With your arm already turned into a tentacle, what creature can stop you?
    • Cultist of Entropy: Using its insanity and control of entropic forces to unravel the normal laws of physic this caster class can turn healing into attacks and call upon the forces of the void to reduce its foes to dust.

    Both those classes use a new resource called Insanity that gradually makes you both more chaotic and powerful as it fills up.


    Forbidden Cults makes two new races available to play:

    • Drem: A corrupt subrace of dwarves, that somehow managed to keep a shred of sanity to not fully devolve into mindless horrors. They can enter a frenzy and even learn to summon horrors.
    • Krog: Ogres transformed by the very thing that should kill them. Their powerful attacks can stun their foes and they are so strong they can dual wield any one handed weapons.


    Forbidden Cults adds many new zones for you to explore and die in:

    • Kroshkkur: An ancient Sher'tul Fortress laying half in ruins that serves as a focal point, and home, for all kinds of creatures seeking lost knowledge.
    • The Maggot: A huge living corrupted worm about to destroy Kroshkkur! Teleport inside and save your sanctuary of horrors!
    • The Godfeaster: Deep undergroud the ground shakes as ... -- redacted by corrupt forces --
    • The Scourge Pits: On the south of the Iron Throne lays a fool pit of ... -- redacted by corrupt forces --
    • Forbidden Tomes: Find special artifact books of ancient lore. But, read at your own peril, for the story they tell may very well suck you in... quite literally.
      Maybe you will even find The One That Writes...
    • Occult Egress: A strange, extremely old, contraption of unknown origin. It seems to require some kind of code sequence to activate. Maybe you will find some during your adventures?
    • The Entropic Void: So you think you are strong? Powerful? Invulnerable? In the end, entropy always wins, as you will learn...


    What would an expansion about horrors be without a bunch of new horrors to torment you with? Please give a warm welcome to:

    • Searing Horrors: You liked luminous horrors? You loved radiant horrors? You will absolutely adore their searing big brothers!
    • Nethergates: It sleeps. Maybe it should stay that way.
    • Netherworms: Vampiric worm masses that are bound to tickle your fancy! And tickle hard.
    • Fearful Symmetry: Geometry has never been so lively!
    • Entropic Shards: Take an entropic crystal, shatter it with tentacles. And die.
    • : And more ...


    "DarkGod, is that all?" Obviously not! You will also find your usual addition of:

    • Lore: Delve into the dark forgotten secrets of the world, where sanity is a very tenuous idea.
    • Artifacts: Discover new objects of power and use them to further your own goals.
    • New wyrmic tree: Unlock the scourge drake for your wyrmics.
    • Glass Golem: Unlock the glass golem option for your alchemists.
    • Events: Discover new strange contraptions in familiar zones. What could go wrong?
    • Achievements: Because there can never be enough!

    Technique / Duelist1.00
    • Effective talent level: 1.0
      Use mode: Passive
      Description: Your offhand weapon damage penalty is reduced to 44%.
      Up to 2.2 times a turn, you have a 14% chance to parry up to 6 damage (based on your offhand weapon damage) from a melee or ranged attack. The number of parries increases with your Cunning. (A fractional parry has a reduced chance to succeed.)
      A successful parry reduces damage like armour (before any attack multipliers) and prevents critical strikes. It is difficult to parry attacks from unseen attackers and you cannot parry with a mindstar.

      Riposte -- If a melee or archery attack misses you or you parry it, you instantly restore 0.9 stamina and gain 0% of a turn.

      Description: Enters stealth mode (power 22, based on Cunning), making you harder to detect.

      Stealth reduces your light radius to 0, increases your infravision by 3, and will not work with heavy or massive armours.
      You cannot enter stealth if there are foes in sight within range 9.
      Any non-instant, non-movement action will break stealth if not otherwise specified.

      Enemies uncertain of your location will still make educated guesses at it.
      While stealthed, enemies cannot share information about your location with each other and will be delayed in telling their allies that you exist at all.

    This chest is an extension of old Sher'tul places of power. Any items dropped inside are transported to an other place, processed and destroyed to extract energy.
    The byproduct of this effect is the creation of gold, which is useless to process, so it is sent back to you.

    When you possess the chest all items you walk upon will automatically be put inside and transmogrified when you leave the level.
    Simply go to your inventory to move them out of the chest if you wish to keep them.
    Items in the chest will not encumber you.
