Game | Tales of Maj'Eyal: Age of Ascendancy 1.5.8 |
Addons | Quick Drown NPCs 1.2.5New characters in Maj'Eyal start out with the Rod of Asphyxiation, an item made to quickly drown npcs. Escorts Enhanced 1.3.1Various enhancements to escort quest NPCs: Items Vault 1.5.0Donators/Buyers bonus! Allow Respec Anywhere 1.2.3Merchant on the Map 1.1.0Places the Lost Merchant event on the map as a zone entrance rather than an undetectable encounter. A companion piece to Melinda on the Map; they can be used together or separately. Succor and easement 1.0.1INFO: This mod is *defunct*. Dead and buried. Been for years now. To be honest, I've been hoping something similar would make it into the main game but it never did. Which I will forever be miffed by :). There are alternatives (for both, the alchemist part and the escort part), check the comments, search the addons. I keep it here for those few who might want to play an older version of the game or for coding reference. --- Old description: A few things to make rng less random with regards to character build (because I really, really dislike it when a build is subject to randomness). This includes and is limited to: It does make the game easier. Not in a significant way but use at risk to your own pride. Formerly "known" as Succor and easement. Marson's Bow/Sling Sounds 1.2.3v1.0.0 Bow: https://www.freesound.org/people/Robinhood76/sounds/126464/ Sling: https://www.freesound.org/people/qubodup/sounds/60009/ Ignore Race/Class Locks 1.1.0Modifies the character creation dialog to bypass the lock check for races and classes, allowing characters to be created using locked races and classes. Doesn't actually unlock anything. Frequently Asked Questions: Melinda on the Map 1.1.0Places the Sect of Kryl-Feijan event on the map as a zone entrance rather than an undetectable encounter. Somebody shut that dog up 1.0.5Removes certain ambient sound effects: Yeeks start in Trollmire 1.2.5Yeeks begin their journeys in the Trollmire. Was created by request and isn't at all elegant, simply moves their starting zone. Might eventually polish it some, who knows. Insane/Madness Last Hope Spawn 1.4.6Spawns the player directly in Last Hope if it detects the game is set to Insane or Madness difficulty. The starting quest is forced to the default Allied Kingdoms quest, "Of trolls and damp caves". ZOmnibus Addon Pack 1.4.0Combines several smaller utility addons, both for convenience and potentially reduced resource usage on smaller machines. Includes the following addons:
A superset of ZOmnibus Lite. Frequently Asked Questions: Marson's Character Recycler 1.2.3v1.0.0 You can choose to regenerate the current character at the beginning, or to go back to the character generation screen and create a new one. |
