Hello everybody!

I finally managed to come up with a second beta of the Redemption MOD.
It is available for download at

http://www.onlinefic...ion-beta-02.zip

If you are interested. I fixed a number of bugs and frankly I think it is now sound enough to be released for public testing. If you find anything you don't like - let me know immediately. The final version will have better documantation but I don't forsee any fundamental changes, unless I decide to add an 'Insane' mode, or make the fights a bit more difficult. The mod is purely role-playing, not power-gamer oriented so - be ware!

If you can please write me two three lines after you played through the mod with your opinion - I will be eternally grateful, as it will help me to make it even better!

Cheers!

Dorotea.

Thanks for testing it! I wrote all the dialogs and epilogue myself so it is very nice to hear you liked it.


So far I know of one minor bug - Sarevok's epilogue sometimes showing twice. I also want to implement this tougher battle scheme, and then the mod will be finished, hopefully through the Cristmas vacation time I will have time to do it.

The repeating epilogue thing is a problem that's shown up in WeiDU Ascension, and showed up in my flirt packs as well. I did find a way to "power" past the problem, though. Stupid, but effective.

How are you doing your epilogue implementation?

Well, the regular way I suppose:
---------------------------------------------------------------
COPY_EXISTING ~AR6200.bcs~ ~override/AR6200.bcs~
REPLACE_BCS_BLOCK ~redemption/bcs/AR6200asc.bcs~ ~redemption/bcs/AR6200jon.bcs~
REPLACE_BCS_BLOCK ~redemption/bcs/AR6200asc_bot.bcs~ ~redemption/bcs/AR6200jon_bot.bcs~
---------------------------------------------------------------
where AR6200jon_bot.bcs being :

IF
Global("StartEndBios","AR6200",1)
InParty("finiren")
Global("JonBio","GLOBAL",0)
THEN
RESPONSE #100
SetGlobal("JonBio","GLOBAL",1)
TextScreen("JONELND")
SmallWait(1)
Continue()
END

IF
Global("StartEndBios","AR6200",1)
THEN
RESPONSE #100
SetGlobal("StartEndBios","AR6200",2)
()
EndCredits()
END
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
and

COPY ~redemption/epilogues~ ~override~
REPLACE ~999999~ ~Irenicus had become ... yada...yada~
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
with JONELND.2da file added to /eipilogues folder

and JONELND.2da :

2DA V1.0
*JoneL
0 1
SWITCH DEFAULT DEFAULT
DEFAULT 71020 999999
.....
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
By replacing 2 bcs blocks - 1 in the middle and 1 at the very bottom, so that Irenicuses epilogue is always the last. But the repeated one is actually Sarevok's, one just before last.
