ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

This addon moves (almost) all egos from ammo (arrows and shot) to shooters (bows and slings), as well as adding a few new ones and tweaking others.

To Do:
- Fix dual-bow mindslayers from getting on-hit damage from both bows on each shot.
- Actually remove ammo, instead of just removing their egos
- Add more egos, so shooters have the same amount of variety as melee weapons
- possibly differentiate between bows and slings more
- balance power, level, rarity (ongoing)

Compatibility: Overloads the ego files for ammo, slings, and bows. Should be compatible with all other addons.

Very cool.

I really hope that this addon or at least some elements of it will make it into the main game. Currently bows don't really have a lot of interesting egos (doesn't everyone end up using mighty bows of great speed?), and ammo feels very un-tome-like (they're a consumable that you can stockpile).

Version 2.0 is out! Download link.

Changes
- keeps your game validated (in theory), uploaded to the site (link in first post)
- modified Piercing/Inertial, reduced cooldowns by 2 instead of 1.
- 6 distinct new greater prefixes, adding damage on hit and other effects, as follows:

- Warping: + Temporal damage, + shot velocity, + luck
- Blazing: + Fire damage, lights tiles on hit, activates for Flare
- Frigid: + Ice damage, Ice damage when hit, + Constitution
- Dissolving: + Acid damage, 5% chance to blind, + APR
- Zapping: + Lightning damage, +10% attack speed, + Dexterity
- Fishy: + Slime damage, water breathing, + infravision

Known/suspected bugs introduced
- Warping bows of the Wind may have odd projectile velocity (EDIT: not really, it just adds the bonuses)
- Dissolving bows' blind chance uses spellpower
- Checksum doesn't work... not sure why not.
- EDIT: Randart Bows from the merchant can get >10 range. Likely that others can get that as well.
- EDIT: Slings of speed still have +20% movement speed.

Just as a note, this addon appears to be incompatible with the old rpg tileset addon. If I put them both into addons, when starting a new game the game locks up at 17% progress for two minutes then crashes to desktop.

Are you sure it isn't this bug?

It probably is, and I believe that DG is looking into it today so we may have a solution soon.
