Working Defiler for AE?
« on: 03 February 2022, 04:19:54 »
I just got a new PC, and finally are able to play TQ again.
But with windows 11, either my old versiob of the Defiler or TQvault are working.
It seems though that an updated vault has been posted in here, which i'm about to try.

The problem is, that the Defiler dosen't regonize my game path with AE, as it only work on classic and IT.
Are there an updated Defiler somewhere?

Not totally correct as it will work with the AE version, you can change the directories under Defiler Settings in the programme.  I have mine set up for the AE version.

However, TQDefiler is long out of date with the game and will fall over at some point if you have the new expansions.

Depending on what you want to do with the programme you could try GDDefiler which works for both TQ and Grim Dawn, TQ's spiritual successor.

That said, again GDDefiler is not up to date either as Soulseekkor hasn't done anything with it for some years now.

Yeah, i remember i made it work with the AE version before my old PC broke down. But can't remember how.
As for now, the defiler keeps giving me these. And the game/savedata paths should be right, checked 3 times.

I use the TQ_Defiler_1.3.9.

I tried the GDdefiler, but that didn't work for me either.

MedeaFleecestealer: What's your settings in the defiler to get it to work with the AE?
I still can't get it to work. :(

Well, it made it better. Not i can at least get into the "mods by", though it dosen't change anything in the game.
I don't get it, i made it work last time i played, and the defiler worked fine with the AE.

But then again, i had IT installed and simply upgraded to AE, and i even think i used my IT char in the AE, but i'm not sure.

I think most of it was included in the AE version of the game, so not needed.

No, the mods won't work with the AE version of the game, they never have.

Ok, i tried all sort of things with no luck at all.
And even though i still have the IT on my steam that i bought back in 2009, i can't play it now.
When trying to launch the gane, it ask for a CD key that i have, but there is nowhere to put it in the game, the IT is simply blocked to be played.
So i gave up and did something i normally wouldn't do.
I downloaded IT as a ISO from a torrent, and everything works perfect now, both the defiler, the game and the mods from in here.

I paid for the game once, and i think i'm allowed to play it either way that works.
I even paid for the AE twice, as i bought it for my old steam account in 2020 right before my PC crashed. Then i gave my steam account to my son, as i've been unable to play for a year and a half.
But now when i finally got a new high end gaming pc, i made a new steam account and bought the AE again (i thought the defiler, GD or mods would work)

So i really spend some money on this stuff, and heck i wanna play like a maniac.

Have you tried clicking on Games in the top left corner of your Steam library and then Activate a Game on Steam?

Yeah, then steam just said that the game is already in my library.
It's the game itself that want the CD key, not steam. :/

Weird.  I'd get on to Steam support then to see if they can help.
