Wolf Attack changes in Nature Mastery:
reduced Wolf hand damage to zero
in turn, increased damage of default attack skill by 50%
in turn, also doubled pierce damage on Maul skill

(Background: Wolves had received a default physical attack of equal value to replace their “hand” hit, as only the former shows up in tooltips.
However, the hand hit failed to be removed, resulting in doubled wolf damage for the past few years. Therefore the buff to the attack skill’s damage, making the nerf less jarring.)

I discover some changes that didnt appear during the changelog update, if anyone find more feel free to post it.

-Expanded shared transfer stash;

-Potion hp and mana stack limit as been increase  to 100;

-Ragdolls have been half fixed, in a way monster corpses dont freeze  during the middle of the animation ( in the air), but the big monsters like yetis and turtles still go under the floor;

-Music transition between areas, in a way when you leave a dungeon the ambiente music stops right away and starts playing the respective ambient area, as vice versa.

Probably its to early to discuss or getting any answer, but does anyone can acess the new content in Viewer and in The Editor ?

I tried using the decompiler wich i could had sucess extract all maps and respective zones , i place in the Art Manager and checked the editor and crashes right away, same as in Art Manager if i build asset the world.wrl it crashes.

I open a older mod i had , open the editor and checked for exemple the creatures in the new xpak4, they all appear grey or invisible.

For what i can see , the game or the editor isnt ready or cant read the new content via in the xpak4 folder.

I remenber similar situation when Atlantis at release. I guess we need to wait until the devs give acess to new files ? Or im missing any step ?

There will be a new DLC for Total War Troy that will allow you mix your army with creatures of  *greek* mythology, centaurs , harpys etc...

For me when i watched, i remenber right away Age of Mythology.





The Hydra reminds me the one from TQ 

Edited : The picture form the poster is similar with the Titan Quest, a lone warrior versus Hydra mhm

Hello,

From the last days 2 days, it seens my Viewer.exe dont open anymore, it was working well with no problems.

I already checked the integrity game files , (un) installed the game, updated drives, turn off the antivirus, but it seens nothing is affecting the viewer.

The paths in Artmanager are  set on right path. While the editor and pse editor are working fine.


Also theres no error or whatsoever , it  try to load but nothing shows up.


Does anyone know whats the cause and how to resolve it ?

Hello!

In this guide, i will try to explain how to make a mesh with a ghostly theme , i hope it can help you!

Attention - Maybe there is another way to do it, this is how i did to make it work on my side, if you know another way feel free to share it.

What is a ghostly mesh ? the best exemple are the wraith monsters models, ( wraith are those ghostly undead found near Megara ) , there is Lost Souls monsters as well ,from Hades act, but they dont look very good for this work, and the wraiths colours are better to play and easy to understand.


In this exemple , lets try to make a Ghostly ShadowStalker.

1) Using MeshView open Wraith.msh


2)Using MeshView open ShadowStalker.msh


Note: In Order to have meshes from those monsters use Arc.explorer - select steam/titanQuest/resouces/creatures

3)Now we want to the shadowstalker have same theme look as the wraith so, copy the shader parameter from wraith msh and place on shadowstalker ( with same numbers and fields), like this



4)Lets make some cool texture and the glow for the shadowstalker , in this case i used Photoshop, you can use any editor program as gimp/paint net so on.
 ( for exemple)


Note:To have creatures texture, use same way to get the msh , Arc.explorer-TQ-resources-creatures

5)After we are done with the texture for Shadowstalker , lets open the wraith texture

Now the factor that makes the semi-transperent aspect, is the ALPHA

Check the ALPHA of the ShadowStalker and the ALPHA from the Wraith. while one is blank the other have somekind of light grey colour



6)Copy the background colour of the wraith  ALPHA and place on shadowstalker ALPHA
(Note: only do that step for the TEXTURE and not for the GLOW)


7)After that process, save the texture and the glow, open on your modifed Shadowstalker msh, place both of textures in their right fields, and if everything was done well, you should have something like this



I know this can sounds litle hard  to understand, but its more easy than it looks. If you have any question/problem plesea let me know , i will try to help you out.

Cheers

Hello!

With Atlantis xpac, we can change the Main menu screen with the ones from previous Titles ( Titan quest - Vanilla, Immortal throne and Ragnarok);

Wich one you like the most ? And why :-)?


I like the Immortal throne one, i think its because all the time i played from CD version, the dark Theme, the souls... it feeled more dynamic you see,  plus the music was neat
