Circle of Eight Modpack 5.9.x/5.9.xNC General Commentary & Discussion Thread

@chano this should solve the problem for you (it definitely worked for me) :
http://www.co8.org/forum/showthread.php?t=1856 ... #9 is what yr looking for (make sure u wait until yr unit gets killed and revived)

 

Thanks, i just tried that,,,,, well, he killed my fighter, was that supposed to happen ?
Tried to raise him and the game froze during the dialog,, not good


Tried it twice now, same result, he kills the character, and then the dialog freeze and i need to kill the game.

 

Kelno is not able to take party to the greater temple, dialog is broken, just says 1. 2. 3.

This happen in 5.9 aswell, but i forgot to mention it.

 

General Ghoul, that is extremely impressive! I'd never be able to do that. But then, I prefer concentrating on melee combat - that's just the way that I prefer to play D&D. I couldn't do that with the assassin (that comes after you when you sell one of Lareth's items to Rannos Davl or Gremag) though. When my party of 7 level 4 PCs fought the assassin, my cleric won initiative, cast Hold Person, and the assassin just failed his save by 1 or 2, allowing my fighters to Coup de Grace him to death in the first round of combat. I withdraw my complaint about the assassin being too difficult. If anything, he could do with some allies to make the combat sporting. In hindsight, my party could have fought him when they were only level 3.

General Ghoul, what is THL an acronym for?

On the moathouse dungeon level, in the hallway outside Lareth's room, there is an anomaly. If you hold down the Tab key, then a light blue dot appears approximately in the middle of the hallway (see screenshot below). What is that blue dot?

 

That blue dot is also in tower behind the Temple and in other places. It's vanilla.

 

I had the three criminals from the VB quests under the influence of DOMINATE PERSON spells, therefore in the party, -AND- unconscious from FF non-lethal damage... and they STILL run away if you try to bring them in alive to the jail.... crafty rogues indeed. I tried talking to them and others near them, so far I have not found a way to avoid killing them and still complete the quest.

 

Hi Gazra
Hopefully I can answer some of your questions.

I do not think think there is a successful way to complete that quest without killing them. You either let them escape and botch the missions or kill them off. The most challenging fight is to have all three together before they turn on you. I think it is scripted that they will never be brought into the jail alive.

Though I wonder if use Friendly Fire to kill them, but do not delete them from the group, if they will still turn into phantoms and get away. I will have to give that a try on my next play through.

 

I want my cake and to eat it too. And I want to see what the guy gives me. It might be better than what is on the guys.

Note, I had to kill the guys. They attacked me.

 

Shot in the back of the head while handcuffed and kneeling while trying to escape or resisting arrest.

 

Is it not a given that Paladins and other Vigilantes are hypocrites and must do all that they can to prove it.

 

The Drow Matriarch summons a sword that attacks its fellows.
(If you want enemy AI to summon things, you have to rig the spell script to create a proto entry that has the same faction as the summoner)

Fight is quite tough now, BTW. Well done.

 

This is different, some other guy wants me to be a murdering bastard. When I kill people, I want it to be because -I- feel like it (I admit there was a time when I killed the Jeweler for the magic longsword... but you went and made him INNOCENT, or at least, now the good people of Hommlet seem to take exception at his killing, when they didn't in days gone by). In any case, when I play a good party.. especially when I have a Paladin, I try to not murder people... even evil bastards.
