Damn! You've been busy!! :shock:

[Genocide]

That is the list of spells that were edited prior to the module being released in its final version.

Nothing has been done to them since the last expansion.

[Felonious Monk]

So... does Elemental Shield still give elemental immunities? Do the spells that give elemental resistances still work (Protection from Elements, etc)? What about epic spells? Adjusted, left as is, or removed?

[Almuric]

The elemental shield and resistance spells still work. The epic spells still work as intended...except I *think* the summons dont work.....gotta check on that but I think we got them too.

Go Thurgin!

I wish i had any idea whatsoever as to how things like that are achieved.

[Wandera]

Well i had a look myself at the darkfire spell and its really simple.

You must have been looking at the other half to the spell Al.. cause that IS complicated to script into.

The one you're gonna need to look at is the damage type side of it which is located at:

x2_s3_Darkfire

as opposed the other one, x2_s0_Darkfire which takes care of how much caster level to allow in the spell and what effect (which needs fixing because its supposed to be on hit 10 + d6 not 13 like i see on my wep when i examine it) on cast it is going to have.

Im pretty sure genocide would have this covered if i can, and he would code it alot more efficient but i have a file thats simply


effect eDmg;
if (**EB plane DETERMINING variable** = **EB 'cold' plane variable**)
{
eDmg - EffectDamage( watever watever VFX_DAMAGE_COLD watever
}

Now if you wanted to change all the variables, which ive done in this file not the s0 file, i guess you just need some efficient code that can be implemented into each effect and damage type and on hit effect and then you're laughing.

Genocide, you got this covered or Al, ya want me to ?

Does Timestop still last 9 seconds like it used to? Because if so, and I'm not saying I think so, then it looks like we're being wasted by mages in the elapsed time of 9 seconds. I SERIOUSLY think it lasts longer than that since you've nerfed it. Can you look into this, Al? Thanks!

[Dweia]

I'll take a look at it when I get on my PC, I'm assuming it hasn't been changed since the version of the mod I have of course :?

[Dweia]

Taking a look at the version I have, it's 6-15 seconds, or (d4()+1)*3.0

Al: just change line 28
float fDur = IntToFloat(d4(1)+1)*3.0; // Least duration is 12 seconds, maximum duration is 30 seconds
so that fDur = however long you want it to last.

e.g. fDur = 9; // lasts a flat 9 seconds
