Circle of Eight Modpack v6 / v6 NC General Commentary & Discussion Thread

Re: Circle of Eight Modpack 6.0.0 / 6.0.0 NC General Commentary & Discussion Thread

Edit. The problem is clearly in my end. Just noticed that the notebook shows the same reps with page down or up.

Ok, I get that my save must also be corrupted so I ask the same question as Gavial with the addition that is there anyway (like never write over) to avoid or at least lessen the chance of corruption on save file?

Secondly:

Also I didn't get anything from rescuing Prince Thrommel and got only some money from rescuing the Elf lady, no armor nor ring. Is this because I am using TN alingment or is it a glitch or is my save broken?

 

Re: 6.02?

I doubt that it is possible for Pishella to destroy the Orb of Golden Death while she is in the player's party. If this is indeed the case, then would it be possible to rectifiy this?

Great mod guys! Back long ago I downloaded before all this the brothel expansion and some other small stuff to modify party size, etc...then I found all this! All I can say is WOW! Awesome work! Amazing and appreciated! I am already wanting to play an "Evil Off" of the party for another run later. We used to do that back in the day of playing D&D and would do these evil party adventures for awhile to blow off steam in high school/college. Looking forward to War of the Skull also!

Question:
I started 6NC with Front End (the latest), etc...but I noticed the "Quest tab" for Nulb (and later the Temple) is not showing up. I have tried to get a few quests to see if it will pop in, it lights up in the main screen that the quest has been added but the tab is not showing. Is there a bug fix for this?

Still new to this modpack so you may need to do "the newbie guide" how to put this fix in. Thanks in advance! Looking forward to fixing the Nub tab issue and getting back into the game!

For the quest to get to Nulb, you can read Lareth's diary, or talk to some of the other folks in town, such as Bl;ack Jay, Terjon, or Jaroo who will direct you to the village of apathetic evil. To get to the Temple, you can talk to Otis, read the note from the Assassin that Rannos may send at you, or read the note from the one lady from the Waterside (forget her name). Any other quests, keep talking to Brother Smyth and as for something new.

Heh, thanks! Dead on call. Never knew that would happen but I guess all the prior times I never shoved an NPC to the front.

Sorry for the slow response back, went to Lady Gaga last night and was worn out after a long night.

Again, great job everyone! I recall buying the Homlett book before they made them all into a single bound module for TOEE. Brings back some good ole days for me.

 

Re: Circle of Eight Modpack 6.0.0 / 6.0.0 NC General Commentary & Discussion Thread

Starting from a totally new installation, I put in the NC 6.0. Everything seems to work okay with regards to fixes, etc. but there's no new map areas. I reloaded it a couple of times, the modpack is active and I made sure the auto-save on mape changes is off. Anyone have any ideas? I'm stumped.

Thanks,

Shah

Edit: Oh, and I have talked to Cpt Renton

Did you start on the shop map?

 

Re: Circle of Eight Modpack 6.0.0 / 6.0.0 NC General Commentary & Discussion Thread

Yep. (Filler inserted to exceed 10 character minimum)

 

Re: Circle of Eight Modpack 6.0.0 / 6.0.0 NC General Commentary & Discussion Thread

Well you need to "find" them as the game progress. They also have level requirements on top of choosing the right dialog options.

 

Re: Circle of Eight Modpack 6.0.0 / 6.0.0 NC General Commentary & Discussion Thread

True, but Welkwood is level 1 and you have to talk to Captain Renton. I've done that, no welkwood on the map. Unless there's someone else that can open that map up?

Edit: I just got done with the moathouse and went to talk to "Kenter Nevets". He doesn't open up Hickory Branch either.

 

Re: Circle of Eight Modpack 6.0.0 / 6.0.0 NC General Commentary & Discussion Thread

You have to talk to Brother Smyth first, ask him for something different. He will then point yo to someone else who will give you the quest.

 

Re: Circle of Eight Modpack 6.0.0 / 6.0.0 NC General Commentary & Discussion Thread

It is as GG said. You talk to Brother Smyth first, he will tell you to talk to so and so and then you get the map/guest from that contact person. If you did not talk to Brother Smyth first, then that may be why you did not get the Welkwood Bog Map.
