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!
As the year is almost ending, and i doubt there will be anyhting new for the game in next days , i was thinking in doing litle feedback about whatt happend with the game during this year.
Note: this is based on my opinion, you can agree and disagree at your will
Lets get started
In 9th May , Titan Quest had new brand expansion "Atlantis", wich brings a new side adventure with new monsters/areas/ itens and 2x new skills per mastery. All sounds good in paper...right? But it was a disaster in many aspects.
1-Most of newest areas had and still have low performance, which can cause crashes. *Tartarus arena*
2-Most of the itens (legendarys) didnt drop ingame and if they do they were blank. ( i think they still dont drop (?))
3-Lv 40 skills, its seens it were copy past from something else, like doppleganger on dream mastery, while some are kinda bad ( lighting dash), and the rest *Phalanax*
4-Mods, duo of "brand new modding tools" all the mods or 90% of then didnt work on current version of the game, i beleive, you can judge me, caused a serious damage , specially on modding community. The worse thing is they took nearly two month to "fix the issue" , sadly older mods do not work anymore, for exemple lith.
After the release, the game had six patches, wich it resolve ( well more or less) some major problems but sadly it brought more bugs ( like the freeze invisible effect).
Was 2019 good for Titan Quest ? Well...Yes and No.
It is good to see the game getting updates and having more content, but in the way it was show and implemented was not the ideial. I still like and love the game, as you know nothing is perfect , being honest i hope in 2020 be more focus in fixing the major problems and balacing the current content , than doing more expansions.
What do you think ? Was 2019 good for TQ ?

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

Im having problems with putting made glows in meshes, im wondering maybe im doing the process wrong ? It looks like half works and other half doest work and appear ingame as blur white texture.
This is how i do it.
Made a glow texture and save in targa. Save in Artmanger the targa file ( build )
Open MeshViewer tool Open mesh creature that i want to change ( for exemple orthrus) Check Shader option, go to glow option and change the path, using the .tex file ( on my game is glow/glow/newcolour.tex)
Save mesh, after i use encryptor tool to merge new meshes into the ones i have. Replace the glow.arc in my mod resources folder
Open creature dbr- Actor variables - insert new msh- select new texture-hit build
I open the arc explorer to see if my glow is working.

It was a nice suprise seeing this lovely game gets a another offcial expansion, this time the Hero journeys into the mystical city of Atlantis. This is just my personal opinion about new dlc, sometimes can be wrong Story: Its short and simple to understand, but i enjoyed. 8/10 Quests: There are about 10 minor quests, if im not wrong, their objectives is get the X Item or Kill X monster, nothing bad agaisnt it, BUT the main issue i have is how easly you can miss the quests, since the npcs dont have any exclamation mark sign, so its about hit or miss. The quests rewards is exp and gold , one of then rewards you with a complete relic. 50/50 Monsters: This time i can say TQ Nordic/pieces nailed with the new monster design, they have more polish than the ones from Ragnarok, we got mosquitos/lions/Aquatic monsters, every single one is different and well made. 7/10 There are 2x our 3x monsters that could needed bit more working , for exemple the octopus, found only in Atlantis , have same texture and abilities of Epiales, just have different name. Environments: Every single places you visit are well shapped , i loved the Journey into Atlas Mountain, its gorgeous. Easy 10/10 for me Itens : I didnt played much the new act, just one single gameplay, so i cant say much about it, but i can say there are few interesting MIS, for exemple The coralman Mi gives +1/2 to defense and dream mastery. but sadly their stats are poorly added. 6/10 Music: For me the music from Atlantis didnt had great impact like Ragnarok, I wish they added epic sad chorus ambient music around ATlantis city for exemple . 4/10 Bosses: there are few of then but every single one is interesting, have unique skills and animations, i like their fights. 8/10 The bad thing i can say about this new DLC is technical issues, from crashes and terrain conflicts,( im sure it will be fixed soon ). Aside from that. Its a solid adventure
