Bugs And Feedback

Evilpanda,
Just started trying your mod.
Have a Lamian at lvl 11, and a Warlock at Lvl 4. Also tried a Vampire, but he caused a crash about every time I Saved the game.
Have music and Plug Y installed. So far moving at a snail pace as I need to find out what is going on. LOL, should have brought a flashlight for the darkness. Tried the Den? ie: Burial 3 times and died three times. Is it necessary to continue?
Plug y is invaluable with the myriad of different things that I have not found out what to do with yet. reminds me a little of Zy El when I started years ago.
The music seems to fit the mood well. Having fun.
Keep up the good work.
Elad
PS: Hope I find the cube soon.

Thankyou very much for the good feedback Smile

if you are trying for the den of evil, it is in the black marsh.

you can just skip through and avoid all the side caves if you like, and come back later, some areas are quite hard as I have swapped all monsters around, some are really from nightmare/hell act 5 but a lower lvl, it would seem i have to rebalance them all much better. once you get the cube (from Mr Smith) and better items it is much more manageable. i have been distracted lately playing a free MMO and not updated anything.. Rolling Eyes

the doomshadows_recipes file included with the mod says what can be done with all the drops.

(added a map for act 1, see first post..)

can you be more specific with the details of the crash, copy the relevant bits from the log file D2 creates. and detail when exactly it crashes, and what you were doing.

Have the Vamp going OK. Don't know what caused the crashes.
I don't play Necros normaly. It is almost impossible to get the Vamp started.
You start with a javelin that takes 10 strength, but you only have 8 so it is no use to start. The wand is too weak to kill any thing to be able to raise a skeleton. I fortunately had a sword with 10-15 lightening to get a lvl done to be able to use the javelin. and raise a skelton to help. The sword is not used now. The Vamp is at lvl5 now.
Thanks for the map, it helps alot.
Is it too much to ask where Mr Smith is? Embarassed

Is he in the Outer Forrest? Would be logical if that is where the Smith is.
Will go back to playing my Lamian, She is lvl 12. Have only found 2 chipped gems so far.
What is considered "junk"?
Minor note: Minor Health potions say 20, but only give 10.

crash you are getiing is probably the one i get randomly when trying to load up a game- no idea what is doing it Sad

Mr Smith is in the torture room -> which is the barracks, just with a different name.

'junk' is all the stuff with light green names which drops randomly, that have a property such as 'health', 'mana' or 'stamina' when examined.

...may consider upping the drop rate of gems again...perhaps

Thankyou again Wink

Have 4 characters at LVL 13. All have died numerous times and only gotten as far as the Breezy Space. I did get the Lamian to Rocky Mounds waypoint and tried the Dark Passageway, but monsters are too strong. A Possed Dark Archer regained life too fast to keep up.
Quit picking up "junk" as it is plentifull and of no use at this time.
My biggest problems are:
1. Too many pieces of equiptment with too many negative values and too weak for the increased of the monsters.
2. There are enough gold drops, but most are small amounts and zero. It took me forever to get a few thousand. My Rogue Merc died and it took 1080 to revive her. Most things I pickup only sell for 1 gold piece.
Don't worry about the gem drops. While my Lamian has found ony 4 so far, the Warlock has found 12.
Well enough gripeing and back to the battles.

1. equipment i think is about fine, as you can socket everything. the monsters being unbalanced is the problem.
-> there is no xp penalty for death on any setting
2. did nerf gold drops and sell item gold, because in testing, my stash was permanently stuffed with gold. Confused

will fix drops though.

Thankyou!
