Bikerdude 3740 Posted December 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2015 QUESTION: I had the objective (on hardest difficulty) to follow that female thug in the inn. But I did not spot anyone and had to find my way on my own. Did I miss her? Should I have approached her in the Taverne launge, maybe?BUG: Within the Inventors Guild house, accessible via the starecase in the blue hall, there is a room with two guards playing cards and a third one sleeping in his bed.On a bed in that room is a CURSED letter. If you frob itThats not the invetors guild, check the in-game map, works the same as T1/T2 in-game maps -Yellow indicates the location your inBlue indicates the location you were last in.Fixed by nbhor in the latest version.FEEDBACK:It is easy to get lost, the mission almost feels too long (if that is even possible), the same desk with the switch to open the hidden place behind the books is used like 5 times (really?), It feels like this whole project is way too ambitious and bound to never be finishedBUGS:Some really nasty bugs, minor ones like the chair on the highest floor of the inn falling through the ground and big ones like the one mentioned by gnartsch located in the guards room of the big mansion, where a letter on one of the beds will deactivate all of your weapons and inventory as well as the ability to open the door again after trying to read itThat was brought up in testing and I varied/removed this issue in every location that had the desk.Chair is a minor, but fixed. And the readables see above.I will state for the record a lot of the bugs (bar the readable above) that players have been finding are ignoreable bugs. Fyi I have seen worse in plenty of other missions, this mission went through 2 months of alpha testing and then several weeks of beta testing but there is only so much work my testers and I could do on such a large mission in the time we had. I will uploading an updating version today that will address all the valid and reproducable bugs upto this point. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

llanita 15 Posted December 22, 2015 Report Share Posted December 22, 2015 Finished!! Awesome!!it took me 10 hours lol. I scoured every little access/exit point, sometimes I even doubled back to cover a different route because I didn't want to miss anything. What an amazing job you all did. Wow. Congrats Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bikerdude 3740 Posted December 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2015 Here is the fixed version:Evening mister Tried to dmap this version after I applied some minor fixed listed in this thread and TDM is crashing. So could you list/export what you fixed and I will then import it into the release version. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nbohr1more 2096 Posted December 22, 2015 Report Share Posted December 22, 2015 Will do when I get home. Of the top of my head: 1) Changed all "min_lod_bias" "1" to "min_lod_bias" "1.0"2) Removed the "min_lod_bias" "1.0" arg from a moveable crate3) Located the "guard_letter_1" def in the old bcd.xd version and replaced the contents of guard_letter_1.xd with that def (was a duplicate wharehouse_2 def for some reason)4) Replaced the inv_name arg on the alchemy readable with the actual name rather than #str_08xxxx. So I didn't really change any geometry in my edits, I just removed entity args and added a missing xd definition.

Lord Stenvaagi 1 Posted December 23, 2015 Report Share Posted December 23, 2015 (edited) I really like the town section balance performance wise: "I'm 'here' and not rendering 'over there'". The readable were very good and can get any taffer excited about upcoming missions.Minor bugs sure but the place is huge some unfurnished rooftops are accessible, above the inn-bar and to the NE to get one archer also I've made it to the end on expert but that stairway leading to a portcullis....mission doesn't end. did I miss something? Best part yet I'll play it again.oops almost forgot, Two AI had issues navigating, one was that lady...sorry don't remember her name yet, very alert but walked in a small circle. then she sat down got up sat down got up that would have continued if not for a black jack. and that doesn't feel right lol. two was a guard near a cell style door same thing couldn't make up his taffin mind where to go. that was near the exit Edited December 23, 2015 by Lord Stenvaagi Quote Link to post Share on other sites

hanmin 11 Posted December 23, 2015 Report Share Posted December 23, 2015 This is an awsome mission, thnx & congrats. Now I know where the (dysfunct) exit is and why I could not find it. I was also going to ask what the narrative point of that very place is. Another "bug" I encoutered were 2 patrols in the TOMT staircase who collided and got stuck trying to pass each other.

demagogue 1252 Posted December 23, 2015 Report Share Posted December 23, 2015 Question: I'm in Lazanova's room but did not find anything important as the VO promised. The diary didn't lead me to anything, and I can't find her safe yet. So I suppose I need help now. Quote What do you see when you turn out the light? I can't tell you but I know that it's mine.

I did run across two minor bugs. Twice I black jacked someone sleeping on the bed and they fell through the bed.The other was a candle stick I put it out and dropped it back on the end table and it disappeared into the void.

Oldjim 154 Posted December 24, 2015 Report Share Posted December 24, 2015 It isn't seen as an update so I now have two versions Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bikerdude 3740 Posted December 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2015 I have updated the FM page to version 2, and the file name from bcd.pk4 to bcd_1_1.pk4. So it should appear as a new version, unless I havent done something right. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
