  • Tales of Maj'Eyal is on Desura!   12 years 48 weeks ago

    It's probably better to donate money directly to Darkgod through this website, rather then buy it from Desura. This way 100% money goes to developer... Nevertheless it's great that you've donated. TOME4 is awesome.

  • Ignore Race/Class Locks   12 years 49 weeks ago

    I finally bothered to read the mod itself. It does superload, and that is expected, but it does not actually do what I thought it did. It is not replacing the birther data, but literally bypassing the locks. My apologies. I presumed to understand how it works when I really did not. Well done with the mod. It is simple and does what it should.

    ?

    Conflicts?  This addon only touches the character creation dialog, and only two isolated methods therein that do lock checking.  I'd be very interested in seeing the addon that could manage to conflict with that.

      Unlocking stuff by editing the profile gets reflected in the Unlocks section of the user's online profile page on the website, where there's no way to distinguish between things you've genuinely unlocked and things you added to a file.  That's what I meant by "claiming to have unlocked things you haven't unlocked".  By contrast, the online character sheet of any character using this addon will say "Ignore Race/Class Locks" right at the top, so there's no ambiguity.  I rather like Frumple's phrasing of the principle:  "…so those of us not quite so pleased by locked core content can express our distaste in a more easily trackable method."

    • Tales of Maj'Eyal is on Desura!   12 years 49 weeks ago

      Been playing for the past week and I've been loving it so far so I went ahead and purchased it on Desura to support ya'll and help out! :D

    • Ignore Race/Class Locks   12 years 49 weeks ago

      I've actually long since unlocked everything either normally or (usually long before that) via editing the allow_build file, but I've turned this on anyway and plan to never turn it off.

      I have an absolute frothing hatred of core content locks and gained nothing but frustration and annoyance from having core gameplay locked behind arbitrary walls. While the addon comes a little too late to save me from the irritation, here's hoping it saves many other people from it, without the fiddly method of screwing around with the allow_build.

      Cheers, Zizzo, and thanks.

      It's very nice! PayPal does not work with my bank cards, but Desura took it.

      It is only one problem now: I can't launch game throught Desura. When I try, it mumbles: "Failed to launch item Tales of Maj'Eyal, File is not valid exe [%STEAMEXE%]. [61.0]". I don't understand: how Steam (which I don't use) is connected to Desura?

      Also, when I launch my usual version of game I don't know, where to paste CD-key, given by Desura.

      UPD: DarkGod said "Sure, simply go to Te4.org and redeem the key on your existing account http://te4.org/key-redeem" And it is really working!

      Nice! I hope you get lots of new players and donators through that.

    • A newbie take on TOME   12 years 49 weeks ago

      It's good to see new players enjoying the game. Hope you enjoy ToME for a long time, it has great replay value!

    • No locked Categories   12 years 49 weeks ago

      Doesn't seem to be working for me either, using the 1.0.0 version on t-engine 1.0.0 - the Con-boosting-stamina addon worked fine, though...

    • Comic: Escorting   12 years 49 weeks ago

      Well, this is pretty excellent. I like how stressed the archer looks as she tries to protect the sage from himself. Awesome job, man.

    • Comic: Escorting   12 years 49 weeks ago

      Pretty much the truth. Got my best rogue blasted by temporal explorer in a long corridor. Dropped down that bugger to Zigur though. Also, why they still tend to run off to their doom? Is it so popular in Maj'Eyal to commit suicide? =_='

    • Ignore Race/Class Locks   12 years 49 weeks ago

      The only reason I suggest my little method of manually unlocking the classes and races is that there are boatloads of potential conflicts with other addons by using an addon to bypass the locked ones. And you are really splitting hairs there by saying this is any more legitimate, are you not?

      Use this if you prefer, but you can always do it the way I outlined above if you think you are having a conflict.

    • Ignore Race/Class Locks   12 years 49 weeks ago

      In all fairness, and I really do like that there's an easy addon for this, calling it 'artificially imposed' is pretty much just making up words, and un-fun is definitely a personal opinion.

    • Ignore Race/Class Locks   12 years 50 weeks ago

      Editing your profile would be claiming to have unlocked things you haven't unlocked, which would be cheating (and which is why the addon doesn't do that).  This is just bypassing an artificially imposed and un-fun constraint on character creation.

      what stats affect my golem in what ways? will adding more points to my con, raise the golem's con or hit points?

      No need for an addon to do this. But this is what I call a cheat of sorts. Your choice either way.

    • Forge of the Gods   12 years 50 weeks ago

      this is for version 0.9.42 not 1.0.0, shows the correct version on the in-game addon list.

    • Tales of Maj'Eyal on Steam: Your help is needed!   12 years 51 weeks ago
      ...

      The quality of the Tales of Maj'Eyal community has declined since the Steam Greenlight. If this game does get put on Steam then I will probably play it exclusively offline as to not deal with the jerks that have come through into this community thanks to Steam.

    • Eden the Rogue, Chapter Thirteen: Aeryn Is A Jerk In This Story For Some Reason   12 years 51 weeks ago

      Imagine my surprise when I ACTUALLY FOUND Eden's Guile in this game! Too bad it isn't very good, with +1 Armor, +2 Defence, +3 Cunning and Talent Survival +0.2 Cunning/Survival. At least not to a Cursed Halfling. Glad to know even after he dies, his boots still lives on!

    • Werebeast Class   12 years 51 weeks ago

      It activates the same as all other addons.
      Maybe you had another addon overriding it?

    • Ruined Dungeon   12 years 51 weeks ago

      The bug has already been reported. I suppose it's not really a bug, but simply a problem with some invisible undead guardian like a Dread or a Banshee wandering off in the walls with no target. You'd probably have to dig every wall on the level and then be lucky to bump it.

    • Ruined Dungeon   12 years 51 weeks ago

      The very same thing happened to me, with the water orb being inactive even though the dungeon is cleared of mobs.
      This happened to me on my Cursed btw, so needless to say this wasn't a case of my golem killing one of the guardians. I started digging out a lot of the tiles but couldn't find a hidden room for any guardian to hide in...

      First time I played the ruined dungeon with the new layout and without traps, both of which contributed to making the dungeon a lot more enjoyable than it used to be.
      Too bad it bugged out though :/

      If anyone with an account on the forums reads this, please make a bug report in the appropriate section (the account-creation function on the forums for some reason decided to not co-operate with me >.<)

      Ghouls make really nice cursed. Especially with the new speed bonus on rampage, their speed penalty is just overshadowed by the healing and stats they get. And gloom works surprisingly well on them

    • races-ghoul   12 years 52 weeks ago

      A Ghoul makes a nice Berserker (same primary stats, easy to get 100% stun immunity, retch is good for meleeing) or Necromancer (movement speed penalty means you don't leave all of your minions to die when you auto-explore, retch is good for healing the now longer-lasting minions)
