Necromancy+ v2.2 (Although now mostly Spiritmancer)

[Praxis]

Cool, I'm continuing to play with yours cause I really like the synergies there are. Wanted to take advantage of the cheese that i500 gives to minions, which scales pretty weirdly, and gives +5 minion level at 7.5. But then again, I wouldn't wanna face a rare with some level 15 or 20 of that skill on nightmare, which would prolly spawn absurdly high level minions.

Tried looking up if there's an error-log dump somewhere but didn't really find anything in the game folder besides te4_log which is too large to make anything out of.

[Crim, The Red Thunder]

If it's hanging at the start, it shouldn't be absurdly large, and that's exactly what he needs. Close tome completely out (this resets the log, which generates a new one EACH time you BOOT tome.) and open it again. Turn on Necro+ and I500, turn everything else off (to simplify the problem.) Click new game. Wait for it to reach 100% and hang, maybe wait a minute or so after that to make sure log fully updated, then close tome. Post log online (here as attachment, or on sendspace if it's too big.) BEFORE opening tome again.

I see, good stuff.

Can clearly see the error at the end

Also, just noticed a bug... not sure if that pertains to this mod specifically. Minions lose 10% of life outside of aura level regardless of talent level. At level 5, tooltop says 3% per level, while it is clearly 10% in game. Maybe that's why I'm getting so much frustration auto-exploring with minions.

[HousePet]

That is very odd.
I haven't touched the misc object talents at all.

As for accelerated minion decay, I'll look into it.
Superloading seems to be rather bad at editing necromancy stuff safely.

[Crim, The Red Thunder]

That's a familiar error. I last had it with I500 before it's most recent update, when trying to use it with the Beholder addon. Even when turned off, I get that specific error. Was fixed when updated.

Housepet, any chance it's related to this? http://forums.te4.org/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=38551

Seems to be the same error in the (second) log file. If it is the same, Hachem provided an explanation of the specifics, which might help you pin down a fix.

[HousePet]

In which case you need to update to the latest ID500.
And no, there will be no cheese.


Overwriting the newTalent engine function?!
And DarkGod says I do naughty things...

[Praxis]

Indeed, it starts okay now. Although overlapping talents still get overwritten by i500, so it's a mixed bag... on one hand you end up with +5 level minions(at 7.5), higher% minion mastery without the mummy, and ability to go deep in the infinite dungeon after the campaign, but lose out on all the upgrades of other overlapping talents.

Also, just checked, 10% decay is regardless of having the mod installed or not.

[Praxis]

Hmm Greater Mummy comes out as "mummylord" and uses placeholder graphics...

Yep

What, do you want a tile or something?

[Praxis]

O I see. Ya I thought it would have a mummy tile lol (not familiar with LUA programming perhaps it is too much work)

[Crim, The Red Thunder]

Yep

What, do you want a tile or something?

You could always ask Rexorcorum if you didn't want to use a stock one. He is, by his own words, easily distracted by side projects.

[rexorcorum]

Oops

I'm afraid I serve a darker authority now and every distraction will lead to a substantial whipping....

Getting this error whenever I explode a whisp

For those wanting also to upgrade their minions, I suggest trying out my Tough Dumb AI addon. It makes all enemy npcs play better, but also, every minion. Unlike their counterparts, some of which use tactical ai (e.g. master archers), all minions use dumb ai.

I've given it a whirl without this addon, and they are much better at killing things!

And bone giants won't use reassemble until they are below 60% of their health !!!!
