Texture & Skin Modding / Re: 2-handed weapons posibilities
« on: 17 March 2024, 21:13:00 »
Yes, I understand that this is a serious problem, but I still can’t come up with an “acceptable” option for implementing the save of illusions (and it’s not a fact that I will come up with one). The option that I am currently thinking about can greatly affect the performance of the game, so I am not seriously considering it.
A random idea - is it possible that illusions doesn't apply permanently because they give no bonus?

Edit - After testing with weapons, the illusion doesn't disappear after swapping. I think the mechanic works pretty well even at the moment. You can reuse any illusion unlimited times, so it's still great.

I checked it in multiplayer, as expected, it is visible only on my own, regardless of server or client. Did some tests with armor_clothing - no success so far.
Even if both players have the same mod?
I don't think its a big issue even if it doesnt work.
Maybe the only bigger problem is that the illusions doesn't apply permanently. Havent tested with weapons yet, but i assume the new look will disappear on swap.

I used AI to generate some voice lines for the Illusionist NPC (Only female ATM):

https://mega.nz/file/C4YxVCQK#RyMdBprz7vp8CKSTrFGHZwg2ckC24oFRJUAoXyxbN3A

May use the same lines with different voices, just for variety.

Here is the current dialog text:

Quote
"My Illusions can make you look like a god, hero! For a gold coin or two."
"Your quests deserve a grand entrance! Let's make a dramatic Illusion!"
"Victory looks good on you, hero! But so can a fresh Illusion!"
"Let me weave an Illusion that inspires fear in your foes!"
"Feeling indecisive? Don't worry, you can always change your Illusion later!"
"Feeling blessed by the gods? Let's make your Illusion reflect their favor!"
"Let me weave an Illusion that makes you look powerful and wise."
"Want to strike fear like a mythical beast? An Illusion can help!"
"Need a disguise? An Illusion can make you look like anyone you desire."
"Found some mismatched armor? Don't worry, I can make it look like a set!"
"Want to be mistaken for a god? A truly magnificent Illusion can achieve that!"
"Found some rusty armor? Don't worry, I can make it shine like new!"

Edit - the NPC is mostly set (doesn't sell anything yet):

@HekTo , here is some progress from yesterday (video):

https://mega.nz/file/qtI0GKjY#MMkqpekRluY_TYODvuWYPWevo9Ri-681MBbWIZRo79k

What is done for the moment:
1. Made the illusions bitmaps smaller so they don't take much space
2. Added a special sound when applied to item
3. Made a dedicated template for illusions, removing some stuff that wasn't needed
4. Prepared the text tags

Everything is WIP. Vendors are on the way.
Thank you for letting me help with this. You are making a revolution in TQ :D

I wrote to you in a PM, but I forgot to write that I didn’t check this on other versions except the current Steam version.
GoG version seems to work fine too, already tested on it.
I don’t know yet, I’ll see when I have time. But I don’t think that the item is simply made invisible, but simply not “loaded” (any item does not appear on the character, not only with template armor_clothing.tpl). It's not a fact that I can do anything in this case.
Hmm, in this case is it possible if Armor_Clothing.tpl is left to equip on torso, but make it enchantable with relics/charms (currently they aren't accepted)? Also there is another problem with this template - the character's textures are reset to default after you unequip an Armor_Clothing torso. You have to restart the game to see your actual dye texture again.
I'll make a small mod tonight to show you what Armor_Clothing is capable of and to explain the reason of this request - for example the latest horse mounts would be impossible to add if Armor_Clothing.tpl didn't exist.

I'm not sure I can post this. Because in order for this to work you need to change the game code. I use 2 dlls - one is my autoinjector that loads the second dll, and the second one modifies the code so that it works. I just checked them (dlls) with virustotal and the autoinjector shows 7/72 detections and the second dll shows 4/72 detections, although I personally wrote the code for these dlls and there are no viruses in them ;D
By the way, yesterday I already made it so that there was no need to create separate relics for the male and female versions of .msh
Another idea - is it possible (if you can't add new things) to modify one of the ring slots to equip the above mentioned template?
Here's a test of armor_clothing.tpl for all equipment slots (I didn't find a ready-made .dbr with this template (I don't have Xpack4 unpacked yet), so I made it from scratch and I'm not sure I did it right).
Spoiler for Video:

Upd. Added the ability to replace the weapon trail as well (what is used in .dbr files here: [dbr_file]->[Weapon Parameters]->weaponTrail).
That's a great progress on Armor_Clothing.tpl. If only it was possible to make jewelry or Artifacts visible when equipped... i think the Artifact slot would be best for Armor_Clothing. Do you know where is this defined and what makes them invisible?
Also, i attach this small utility that was sent to me some time ago, maybe it can help simplify things when editing the DLL, i dont know (see attachments).

I hope you will be kind enough to share your modifications someday. This is like fresh air in this game, to a big degree neglected by it's developers...

This mod keeps getting better and better. :)
I'm trying :)

Reworked the other skill today - Caltrops (replacing the previous Tribolos skill in Rogue Mastery):


Thanks to @Amaryllis for her help with the text descriptions.

What i've been doing the last 2 days - with the agreement of Bumbleguppy i'm adding 2 skills from EG mod to the LoC masteries. Here is a preview of the first one, planned for tier 7 skill in Storm Mastery:



Based on my old Thunderbird skill, but the pet visuals are improved, as well as the AI controller.
The only problem i have is that the ambient effects around the bird refuse to appear. I'm clueless what i'm doing wrong...

Here is how the effect should look when it's finished (except the eagle mesh, which is old):



New video - the skill is almost finished:



Moved the bird up and added the missing levels of the skill

I'll focus on that today.

Gems are done. Video:

Texture & Skin Modding / Re: (Tutorial) Making Animated Textures
« on: 08 March 2024, 10:41:31 »
This tutorial is outdated. The function of building animated textures is now built-in ArtManager when building a TEX asset, so you dont need a command line anymore.
