    Does the Rod of the Viper and Rod of the Python do anything?
    The first one should be poisonous and the other is supposed to summon a spider.

    Could someone look into this?

    Maybe Allyx, he seems to be good at fixing things. :)

    Heh I can't use them either way. For some reason equipping them creates major lag for me *shrug*

    Maybe if someone does take a peek that will fix whatever is causing that for me.

    I'll take a look at it today.

    [EDIT] Ok the bad news, they don't work. They're both counted as +2 quarterstaves.

    The good news I can fix the python rod, need a new spell for it though, The Rod of the viper I can add the "Dagger of Venom" ability, but I don't know how to get a stronger (or any other) poison effect from the weapon, but I can make it useable more than once a day.

    Ok try this, guys.

    Put this on top of any patch config you like (including my shop map version 2).

    The rod of the Viper is now a +1 heavy mace type weapon that also functions as a dagger of venom (once per day).
    The rod of the python can now summon a giant constrictor snake.

    Put the extracted PythonViper.zip on to your instalation folder, then do the same with PythonViper2.zip

    1) What's wrong with the shop map?
    2) did you use the custom temple.dll?
    3) do you get to the caravan map?
    4) Is the map displayed correctly?
    5) do the merchants show up?
    6) do they speak?
    7) Do they teleport you to right map?

    It's probably a small problem a missing file or a file in the wrong place or something.

    [EDIT] I found a missing file in the shop map mod, and uploaded a (hopefully) complete version including these changes, please re-download it again.

    If your having a problem you obviously want fixed, he needs those questions answered. Don't be an asshat. If your too busy to answer his questions to fix YOUR problem, then you should be to busy to post too. :chainsaw:

    I only need to answer the first two of them,
    1)no map at all
    and
    2)I'm using Liv's temple.dll

    happy now?


    the bottom line(at what point should the shop map appear anyway?) should answer most of them tho....

    K/S's old habits are dying hard...He'd need a tonsilectomy to remove his hemorrhoids, I'm afraid.

    I included a custom temple.dll because THAT is what sends you to the shop map, If your using Liv's one no wonder it's not working, If you want to use the shop map V2 mod I STRONGLY suggest you patch up to Shiningted's mod, then put the shopmap V2 mod on top (including the temple.dll), that should fix your problem (and other slight incompatability problems with Livonya's mod). If it's installed correctly you should be at the caravan map (with 3 traders) BEFORE the starting vignette (the middle trader can tell what alignment you are, and knows which map to teleport you to - to take you to the Vignette map you should have gone to).

    I never had an asshat, had a beer hat once, and I can do the dance of the dope hats backwards. So I'm not too bothered.
