Your mod does currently work with CoS, correct? What needs changing?

 

And are you seriously thinking of implementing some form, however minor, of crafting? Because that's really needed in the game, and I suspect Brad won't issue it until FE II. Since it would be a major new feature, rather than more of an existing one.

@Primal from Primal

Could it be that linking the Nexus files directly in the OP prevents the downloads from registering as unique when links are used? Or how about Google spiders, are they doing this? That could explain why the optional files have more downloads than the main file (You need a registered account to download the main files as it is > 2MB)

 

 

I'm doubtful of that, because I faced the same thing, without your outside link. If you check out a lot of mods on Nexus you'll discover this is pretty common.

[*] Added: Go Home teleport spell (All champions - excluding Sov - can cast it once) 

Sweet.

Heros not going to get stuck out in the middle of enemy territory anymore.

Thanks Primal!

Nah. The administrators did some corrective updates a while back (that's why FE mods don't have such a big difference between their unique and total download numbers in comparison with the more recent LH mods) and they explained that in some instances, a single download was sometimes erroneously counted multiple times and artificially increased the number of total downloads. The problem probably persists to this day.

So CoS is not compatible with the leaders DLC, but your mod is, how should we proceed if we want to use both?   Just don't use the DLC sovereigns, or some other method?

Reply #213 from Elemental Forums Top

Gotcha, thanks for the mod.   Looks great.

- The spell will not / should not work for human players;

Just had a look at your code for this, curious to see what you did.  What would stop a human player from casting Spell_X_ArcaneMonolith ?    I don't think it would matter if they did but just can't see anything that would prevent it.  Mind you I haven't tried it (yet) so I might be missing something.

Edit -> Might you haven't Mind you I haven't

Using that combination should make it possible to unlock most tile spells for AI with the obvious limitation that the tile spell has to target a unit.

Interesting, will have a play with that later thanks.

If by "a while back" you mean "over the last four years," then I would agree. I posted my mod four years ago, and it still shows a considerable disparity between unique and total downloads.

 

Mind, I've got no explanation for it. Unless the eastern watchtower flame guttered out when I was invoking the demon Bethsoft in a triangle...

Primal,

 

Is the file structure still:

  \A_LHLIB\
  \Gfx\
          \A_LHLIB\
          \XtraCanon\
          \XtraDeconstruct\
          \XtraLOM\
  \XtraDeconstruct\
  \XtraLOM\

 

 

I ask because in the current 1.6c zip, "XtraCanon" is under the root and not under "\Gfx\"

Thanks.

 

Reply #221 from Elemental Forums Top

Primal,

It looks like only "XtraCanon" is in question,

Currently I unzip that in the root, but it should go under "Gfx"

I'm getting what I *think* may be a mod bug. In my current game, I've built two altars: order, and air. The order one shows up top as providing +1 mana, but under it, is String Not Found. The air altar seems to be producing no mana. Actually, it is: under the city that has possession of that altar, it shows as producing 1 of the mana that contributes to its production total of 4. So it's a reporting error.

 

I'm using your mod. CoS, CB, and BMB--with your mod adaptations for these.

Also: did you create the event, "Eric's Adventurers"? Because the unit you acquire, those Adventurers of Eric, have platemail proficiency, but only padded vests. I don't think they can be given platemail, can they? Of course, if they're scripted to acquire platemail when you finish their quest, that would be something.
