Circle of Eight Modpack v5.7 Bug Report Thread

The elven chainmails are hard to get and heavily guarded so they should be worth a lot of money. Fighting Smigmal Redhand for her blue chain isn't the easiest part of the game. The purple is in a 100+HP Behemoth frog. The game writers sure made them hard to get. Good thing they work good.

 

Hey all,

Running Co8 5.7.2

A couple of issues :

1. When picking Exotic Weapon Proficiency you don't get a weapon at char creation for :
Butterfly sword (Is this even in the game?)
Siangham
Monk Spade
Kama
Tonfa
Orc double axe you get a Battleaxe.

A related but weird bug is when I select hand crossbow the game crashes to desktop when going into the inventory, but looks like you get a normal crossbow as uses that model.

A nitpick when selecting the shuriken you only get 1, and there is only 1 for sale in the shopmap.

2. When multiclassing to a cleric and picking the trickery domain all points added to bluff/hide only get added as half points, this doesn't happen if you create your char as a cleric. The same happens for the travel domain and the survival skill.

3. When picking Martial Weapon Proficiency you don't get a weapon at char creation for :
Light Pick
Battleaxe
Longsword
Scimitar

The missing longsword also causes the additional bug for clerics who pick the war domain with Corellon Larethian or Heironeous also dont get the longsword at char creation.

Sorry if these have already been found! And thanks for the great mod!

 

in the temple I find "holy ranseur". However, interacting with it via the craft arms and armor interface shows it as having only the +1 attribute and no holy. This mean you can make it a holy holy ranseur with potentially bad results.
I'd check but I didn't know the good domain is required to craft holy weapons so I haven't selected it unfortunately.

EDIT: I see now that it is an issue with all attributes. If the character doing the crafting does not have the ability to craft a certain ability, then it's "blank" when they look at it. It doesn't seem to adversely affect crafting...

I did however notice that holy does piercing damage instead of holy damage.

 

Thanks for the responses!

Oh, I didn't know there were status effects that don't show up by your character portraits. I guess something the wizard cast on the cleric while fooling around caused it.

OK, that makes sense. I guess the lines seemed like they might not be supposed to be there because they aren't voiced, but that's kind of unavoidable if Co8 added them.

 

http://www.d20srd.org/srd/spells/dismissal.htm
the dismissal spell's description in TOEE is backwards, it specifies that the DC on the will save to resist it is:
DC = spell’s save DC + creature’s HD - your caster level

However, the correct value according to SRD (and sanity) is:
DC = spell’s save DC - creature’s HD + your caster level

According to TOEE the higher your level the WEAKER your dismissal gets, and the more powerful the creature you are trying to dismiss, the STRONGER your dismissal attempt gets.
This is obviously backwards.

Whether or not the actual spell follows this formula, or it is just a typo in the in game documentation I do not know.

 

the quest tubal collection agency where tubal asks you to get antonios mace (both are helpers of the fire priest) should fail if you kill them. (can't give tubal antonios mace if you killed tubal)

 

I was going around the Moathouse when I encountered a weird crash that now happens everytime I try to change floor.

I first went in the moathouse, cleared the entrance, went downstair and fought the undeads. Then I went back to the back entrance and fought the brigands, but now everytime I go either downstair (where I already went earlier) or upstair (through the secret stair near the back entrance), ToEE crash with an error in temple.dll. I can change regular maps just fine, I can also go back to Homlett etc.

 

a character (a rogue if it matters; might be related to backstabbing) with a bow and greater invisibility causes enemies to get attacks of opportunity against it when it attacks someone with a bow despite being invisible

 

black puddings are gods (they shouldn't be):

It should split into a pudding with half the health...
I encountered one with 160 HP, I hit it once it became 2 of 137 HP.
137 became 2x 124
124 became 2x 115
115 became 2x 113
113 became 2x 112
112 became 2x 109
109 became 2x 108
108 became 2x 106
106 became 2x 106 gen 2
106 gen2 became 2x 107
107 became 2x 109
109 became 2x 108...

Ok I think I have recorded enough splittings. Basically the split mechanism is completely broken.
Note, that the list is of "offspring" order... that is, I did not diverge and I avoided hitting anyone but splits which are the most furthest removed from the original

EDIT: Ochre jellies seem to be the same

 

The following is a crafting bug:


How to reproduce:
craft a weapon with:
+1
+2
+3
Flaming
Frost
Shock
Icy Burst
Shocking Burst

(so far, no problems)...

next, open craft arms and armor, select the previously crafted weapon, add flaming burst to it.
Price becomes:
-99500 GP
-7960 XP

This isn't just cosmetic, clicking craft actually increases your GP (actually it seems to be given out in copper pieces which breaks the interface somewhat). And your crafter actually gains 7960XP.

A few more crafting and everything breaks apart completely.

I recall a similar issue with vanilla but I thought it had been squashed.
Regardless, there it is.
EDIT: wait, I remember now... it was made obsolete due to Co8 implementing proper level requirements on weapon crafting. With vanilla you could get this bug before level 10, with co8 you cannot get it before level 12. But thanks to the level uncapper, you can reach level 12 and thus reach this bug.

I think it will again be made irrelevant if the burst enchantments are fixed, as per the thread: http://www.co8.org/forum/showthread.php?t=7978

PS. Also, please make burne's shop, the jewler shop, and the cleric in st cuthbert's church's shop have cycling inventories, their inventories fill up in the later stages of the game and it causes problems. (forcing you to sell magic wares / jewlery to brother smyth, who pay half as much as they would, which is already pretty low unless you max out appraise).

 

Sargen, the mad wizard in the earth node that thinks you are a demon, will not properly disband when his quest is complete. He says he leaves, and he disappears, but it still shows him on my party menu, if I select all party members it has a circle where he used to stand which can move around... shortly thereafter the game breaks.

I tried several time and its the same result

EDIT: Interesting result, it only fails if I bring him to homlet, if I go to nulb then he properly leaves the party.

 

enemies killed with holy word do not give XP.
Tried a couple of time with bodaks from fire node. they give 300 XP per bodak to each PC when killed. If killed with holy word they give no XP at all.
