    Only true resting allows you to relearn spells, passing time does not.

    Well, if there were any changes to the basic mechanics, importing might be dodgy... Why not just re-create the same characters?

    Q1; How do I uninstall previous versions of the Co8 Modpack? I just finished installing and activating the 7.0 NC mod, and I have the 6.0 NC mod from previously and I'd like to get rid of it now since it's unneeded.

    Q2; I understand that this is very far ahead, but in the ways of end game content, will there be a final boss battle more suited for "Evil" parties, instead of fighting Zuggtmoy? I remember a post before suggesting that there be the Circle of Eight wizards at level 20 to fight or something. But will there be something like this?

    Re: Circle of Eight Modpack v7 / v7 NC Bug Report Thread

    Game Crashing........... OFTEN

    I am experiencing a lot of crashes.
    I have made a couple stops in Hommlet, then go to Moathouse. Killed the Frogs, but then game crashes everytime (5-6 times) i go past the Frogs (dead Frogs) and near the moathouse.

    Help?!?

    Yeah? How about the special lawful evil ending?

    where you neither banish nor kill her

    I'm having a graphical issue with the 7.0 NC mod that I did not experience in the 6.0 version. Some NPC images are not showing up in the thumbnail/image box when you speak to them. Instead, the box is black with an arrow in the top left corner. I've taken a screen shot from the Church in Homlett as an example, but it has happened in other spots as well.

    Here's the pic: [​IMG]

    Well, the evil parties' fight against Zuggy makes sense actually - you subdue her to yourself so you can wreak havoc using her power. Not sure if a new justification (or fight) is necessary.

    I do think it'd be nice to have "final battles" for the NC now that it's transcended the Zuggy fight as the culmination.

    You can delete the 6.1 files from the ToEE directory. Be careful not to delete any main files, just 6.1.tfs and 6.1.tfm.

    What happened to Terjon?
    Where'd he go?

    He's not in his usual room on the 2nd floor of the church.
    Does he roam around now or something?

    Lantern,

    I think you're suffering from a bad install or something. I'm not seeing the arrow icons, and Terjon is where he's supposed to be in my 7.0 game.

    Yeah, I think you're right.

    -EDIT-

    I got it all sorted now.

    The pregenerated characters are a bit odd. Some of them have new portraits not from the original ToEE, and I feel like there are entirely new pregens from the default ToEE. What's this about?

    In the Verbobonc portion the adult and young white dragons were all enlarged gargoyle models, yet the portraits were as they should be. The game crashed upon entering the adult dragon map but reloading the game yielded the same result.

    I have never used a GOG d/l game, but I wonder if possibly TOEE or TFE-X may be saving to the "default" directory location. Did you use TFE-X to back up and/or restore your saves? If you haven't already, you might want to make sure there is nothing in C:\Program Files\Atari\TOEE.

    Other than that, I don't really know what to say... maybe Gaear will have some better ideas.
