    Werivar Mod

    MageKing17 19 years ago
    I concur. The Werivar doesn't have an especially tough hide, being based on wolves, but it would have the ability to partially dodge/absorb melee attacks. So it would take less damage from melee, but take full damage from ranged. I believe this is opposite from Android.

    Perhaps you could write a script or something that lets Werivar dodge melee attacks 20% of the time and have him take full damage from both melee and ranged.

    Sounds really kool, greatly original.

    This would be cool and I'll certainly give it a try. But I can assure you it will be a heck more difficult than it sounds.
    I'll update the poll to include this option.

    Edit: Err... um... yes. ops: Can anyone tell me how to edit the poll? I can't get to it the way I did last time.

    Hmm.. not shure but I think that after a week? or something, normal forum members can't edit thier posts anymore. Mods still can so pm Zex, Quan or Ville

    I've met a grass-textured large brick in jungle area. Is this a bug ? It doesn't look like a creature, it doesn't look like a machine, it hits hard...

    I just played 1.02, it seems well-balanced. It's no longer easy to level up to a point of invulnerability. There are some areas, however, where you need that godlike status to beat an area. I suggest either making some heavily defended areas weaker as well, or making levelling easier.

    Haven't seen this one at all. I'll try playing with the alien a couple of times and screw around a bit. Can you tell me anything else that might have caused it?

    I haven't seen this one in particular but I know that I had some nasty graphics errors a while back. Terrains blurring mostly. I haven't had any of them lately. Can you send me a screenshot? That would help me a lot in fixing the possible bug. (If it is my mod.)

    Okay, but what areas are you referring to? I need to know specifically what you feel is too hard, otherwise I'm groping in the dark. You must understand that I don't find it very hard since I know how to build many of the more powerful items and use many of the new skills, were as you need to figure it out. It makes it really hard for me to adjust the difficulty to a level that others see fit. Just tell me which areas and I'll sort them out. (Note: I'm still bsy adding new things to help you, since I want some areas to be extremely bad until you have obtained a decent level. But I guess I overdid it. ops: )

    Note: I know I'm going darn fast with the version updates, for I already have version 1.03! I don't know if I want to post such a mass of versions the whole time but I desperately need you people to test the new additions to give me feedback.
    I'm going to wait before putting out v1.03 until v1.02 has been tested properly.
    Here are the things I have added to v1.03 so far. Not much really but it took a lot of work.
    -A Special skills level up system. Now each time you level up you have an extra choice - Special skill. Choosing this will give you a certain item. Once you have 5 of these you can use them to obtain the Special Skills menu! (It is a list of items. Similar to the current level up system.) Once you choose a special skill you have it permanently. The next time you get to choose special skills you can't take it again! (This took a lot of scripting, but was at least easy.) It is like crimsonland. (Removing the other items if you take a skill was also a lot of work, since effect 16 with a -1 parameter 2 screws up if the item is not available to remove.) Special skills only available to human and werivar.

    The special skills I have currently (mostly stolen from crimsonland) are:
    1- Food: Lowers you food drain.
    2- Refund: Gives you your five levels of level ups, it refunds you if you don't want any of the skills available.
    3- Speed. 20% increase in speed. Affected by enemy attacks.
    4- Item Vision: Human Only. Highlights items (and plot objects) in green.
    5-Monster Vision: Highlights all creatures in red.
    6- Evil Eye: Slows the enemy you are currently looking at for as long as you look at it. (You need to stare at it a moment before it really slows.)
    7- Lightning Aura: Damages all enemies that dare approach you. (Like Radioactive.)
    8- Lean Mean XP Machine: Gives you 1 XP per second regardless.

    I want to add more special skills but I don't know what. Any ideas?

    How about: *Killer(sometimes a enemy just dies when it hits you,would have to be toned to cope with fire rates of cource) and For the wevier you could go so eventully he has all the wiveir stuff and the phonic stuff and is a fully evolved alien but that would be over-powered(just how i like it.)

    Marevix 19 years ago
    The most troublesome area at the moment is taking out the planteray defence robots. In 1.0, that was very tough to do. In 1.02, it's essentially impossible. I will, however, comb through the item files to discover the super items you have placed into the mod.

    Special skills- It's like as if all you do all day is sit in a small room scripting Notrium. I don't know how it's possible that you have the time to code all this, but I'm not complaining.

    However, it seems very tough at the current leveling rate to get a special skill. 5 levels takes a while to accumulate, and most of those skills (except Food and Lean mean Exp Machine) are either completely useless or just generally uneccesary. Either make more powerful skills (i.e. an ally summoning ability) or reduce the number of levels required to get a special skill. Both would probably be needed to make them truly useful.

    You should see some Morrowind mods, those people have NO LIVES.

    The specials sound really interesting, but I could figure out how you did all of them as soon as I read them. Perhaps adding some ingenious skill that nobody else has come up with that nobody can figure out how you did it? Although, I suppose that's supposed to be in my mod, huh?

    In items.dat I found an item called XP Credit Card that gives you 50,000 experience. Been cheating on your own mod, eh Uberwaffe?

    First Off - Fixed the alien can't kill the computers bug.
    Secondly - The XP credit card I add only when testing new skills, xp related scripts. I don't have the time to level my Werivar to level 8 each time I add a new skill or item. Doing so would mean that my mod wouldn't progress at all! (The cheats in most games are there for this exact purpose. Do you really believe developers have days to spend getting to the point where they can test the new stuff added?)

    I wanted to do that, for I too like being totally unstoppable, but that would unbalance the mod too badly.

    That actually only took me just over an hour. I only edit my mod for about 3-4 hours in total each day.

    I had realised that and will scale down the requirements. (2 levels only?) I'll also up te power of the special skills. (The entire system was in fact only a test run too see if I could do it. Mostly I'm adding new stuff to push my current skills in modding)

    That would be beside the point, since I aim for things from my mod to be used in other mods that need them. Sure, I'll try some tricky stuff but I still want others to be able to use it.

    "MageKing17" said:

    Why? Do you think I'm not capable?

    Please: I still need more ideas for special skills, new items, normal skills, etc.

    Umm, I tried playing with the alien and she can't douse the computer fires, works with all other races.
    Other than that this is an AWESOME mod! Loved it!
    And I wonder how can I trigger the planetoid ending with the psioinic, it still says it is unusable (although I'm messing with the map editor ops: )

    True it would be over-powered, so perhappes you should make a race that is just unstoppable for those how want to zoom through it all, Below is the file i use when making the alien race unstoppable.

    This is of course just an idea but it would be helpful to those who want it and it would not make those who don't want it angry cause it would be a new race that they just woudn't pick



    P.S love how your mods coming along its WAYYYY more balanced than before.

    New special skill- Vampiric Aura

    I have no clue how this would work, or even if it's possible, but when using claws with this special skill activated you drain a relatively small portion of the damage you deal and add it to your own health. Wouldn't make sense if you could do this with a laser pistol though, so it'd be best for claws only. Besides, then I'd use my claws more.

    Perhaps while the player is holding the item the special skill selection gives to you, it replaces your current claws with a duplicate of them with a vampire effect. I think that if you got a new claws level, however, you'd keep your vampiric claws of that level and gain new ones that don't have the vampire effect, so implementing it would be very tricky. It would be supremely awesome, however.

    Sure, set it that the fire effects of all weapons in a script give so and so health if they hit something,pure amount of damage.

    Why would a laser pistol give you health?

    It would be difficult to implement in a script because I don't remember seeing a vampire effect in the game, but Ville mentioned a while back that it was in earlier versions but got removed from some bug. The hardest part would be to set it to give you a percent of inflicted damage, I have no clue how that would be done.

    Along with getting vampirisim you would also apply a little reverse palarete device to your weapons which would also do the same.

    Perhaps the human or android could build an upgrade for weapons that adds health-leeching or something.

    Welcome to the Forums, J.O. Nice to know a new member is trying out my mod. Yes, I am aware of this bug and have already fixed it. I just haven't released the new version in which I had done this yet. To fix it yourself open player_races.dat and search for [alien;] (without the []). Then change its side to 0; This should fix your problem but also cause the other survivors to be your friends (exactly what I wanted to avoid when I changed it.)

    New special skill- Vampiric Aura
    I'll definitely add that. But I'll make it so that you can only choose it once you have claws level 5. (Makes my life easier. :twisted It is definitely possible, check out effect 44 (Change player's bar). Add taht to the hit effects to add health and there you have a vampiric weapon.

    "slyvena" said:
    Sure, set it that the fire effects of all weapons in a script give so and so health if they hit something,pure amount of damage.
    I could do this too, but its would require a lot of work and a vampiric weapon should only be short ranged. I could make that along with giving you life essence the 'vampirism' psionic skill can give you health. That would give you a nice long ranged vampiric weapon.

    "Marevix" said:

    I'll see if I can design a new weapon for this.


    Also: I have been playing with the special skills a bit. You will now only require 2 levels to choose one. Food gives you a 90% drain reduction. (Too high, but I just HATE gathering food the whole time.) and XP machine now gives 2 XP per second. (Trust me, this is more than enough. Anything higher will make it far too easy.) I'll be releasing the new version with all of this soon. (1 to 3 days.)

    My suggestion - add "run script"(disable after first use doesn't run without calling) effect to claws hit effects. The script would check if evolution bar is above certain value, and if this is true, add some health to player.
    It would also require player creature to very close to organic creature type/class. This is to prevent draining health from androids, robots, barriers, crates, turrets and other things.

    Pros:
    + you don't have to even change claws and use other scripts such as replacing weapons and so on.
    + very unlikely to drain health from metal things. It would happen only if you fight android and alien at short range, and take out the android first. Doesn't happen every day.

    Cons:
    - conditions "player is near organic creature" and "evolution bar above value x" would be checked on each single hit. Might slow things down, not sure.

    I help you because I think Alien is hopelessly overpowered in Werivar mod anyway. Especially after playing human and giving your radio to hermit.

    Well, Thought i replied to this before, It seemed pretty fun when i played it, But i must mention that the eyes on the new race happened to stick out alot, Perhaps less contrast between the eyes and the fur .

    The problem with a script like that is you can't set it to drain a percent or fraction of damage dealt. Perhaps we could settle with with each level of claws draining a higher amount. For example, level 1 drains 1 health, 2 drains 2 and so on. We can't set it much above 1 point per level as the claws attack rate is very high. Then everyone would ignore levels and go straight for the Vampire skill.

    @Marevix: Actually I reduced the drain per hit to 0.2. Remeber, the fire rate is 100msec. That's 10 times a second. So 0.2 x 10 = 2 health a second. Which is already quitea a decent amount of healing. (Don't want the player to heal more than he can get hurt during the fight.)

    That is a good idea, but I only want vampirism for lvl 5 claws, and I have already implemented the needed scripts. The scripts only run once, so its a bit more effective than constantly calling a script.

    I'll see what I can do, but I'm not great at graphics. The best I've done so far, which is over 90% from scratch, is the mine.

    Not exactly constantly, because it runs once, only when called by hit effect. And if you add level5 requirement to the script, it works like you want it.
    Anyway - it's your mod. I myself have much more ideas than I'm capable to code in limited amount of time.

    If Vampirism only applied to level 5 claws, then it would be a bit useless by that point because you'd have more than enough energy and health to simply kill things with Psionic blast. It wouldn't be worth the special skill if you didn't get as much health drained in combat as you get damaged.

    Now who dared to edit my post and add "underpowered" word there ?

    Of course alien is very overpowered at certain point. Dozens of armor points, I can have several dire reapers swing at me at same time....
    ---------------------

    I didn't check yet, but in case you didn't add it, it is possible to implement Pyrokinetic and Evil Eyes perks from Crimsonland. Have a script that runs every 1000 ms, and shoots 3 or so invisible bullets in a spread, at mouse location . Bullets would either ignite monster or stop it for 1000ms.
    The downside would be I don't know how to prevent player from damaging himself if he hovers mouse over his creature. I guess power comes at a price, you have to be careful.

    That's why you make the calling actor the player.

    Trust me, once you have some decent armor, and you dodge a little you get nearly no damage whatsoever, so it is not bad at all. (But once I release the test version you can give me a better opinion.)

    Already added them both. They are simply weapons taht fire at the mouse location from the player. That way you can't kill yourself and it works quite well.
