GrayFace MM6 Patch v2.3.1 [June 10, 2019]

[GrayFace]

When you install the patch, there is a box for map fixes that says "leave unchecked if installing over a large mod" I had to check this because I am playing Mandate and the door in Castle Kriegspire leading to where the egg is won't open without it. If I now want to install a large mod, is there a simple way to change this or will I have to reinstall?

You'll have to delete files starting with "00 patch" from Data folder.

i love your patch....except for one thing. you messed with the stat wells. you implemented your own opinion as to how they should work.

No, I've fixed bugs in timers code. The experience well in Kriegspire now works exactly as it was implemented by NWC, not as the bug made it work. As always, you can disable the fix by adding FixTimers=0 to INI.

@GrayFace -- ErrorLog after pressing F4

Try setting WindowHeight=960 in mm6.ini. In the next version the problem would be fixed completely.

wow, thank you o: i handicap myself till just about the end of the game (the oracle quests) and then farm experience and gold from paradise valley, hermits isle and dragonsand just so i can dump all the gold i get into experience. x3c i do something similar in mm7.

Possible bug? In the Temple of Tsanta, after you unlock the doors that lead to the main chamber with the altar -- If you go down the stairs past the altar and to your right, you'll come across a bed. Clicking on the pillow of the bed (I even tried Telekinesis on it) is supposedly interactable but I'm unable to figure out what clicking it is supposed to do? Was it supposed to give you an item of some sort?

[GrayFace]

Nice find! It's supposed to give a +6 spear, but the variable got used for the doors into the main area. Since there's no way to get there without opening the doors, there's no way to get it.

[Anubis]

Tomb of VARN: I came across a "Picture" that's interactable with but nothing happens. It's located...in a long hallway. Was this supposed to give an item?

What picture? Type
XYZ(Party)
in the console for coordinates.

[Anubis]

I know Ctrl+F1 is the console command as I've used it for MM7 but it isn't working for MM6. Do I have to download MMExtension in order to bring up the console?

Also, the "Picture" texture I found? I thought it was the only one until I came across more "Picture" textures near the entrance of the Flame Door. I could interact with them but nothing seemed to happen so I'm starting to think that was supposed to be the case.

Version 2.3
<< MM6 - MM8 >>
[+] PaperDollInChests option shows paper doll in chest dialog: value 1 (default) will make it visible when you open inventory of a player, value 2 will make it visible right when you open the chest, value 0 will disable it.
[+] Keyboard control: some dialogs can now be controlled by pressing Up/Down and Enter. E.g. NPC conversations. Only those dialogs that already had everything in place to support it are effected.
[+] Save/load dialogs now react to Enter key.
[+] Newer MP3DEC.ASI version. In theory this might fix some problems with MP3 playback.
[-] My bug: If somehow game window managed to become smaller than 640x480, that wasn't handled gracefully in software 32-bit color mode.
<< MM6, MM7 >>
[-] My bug: Quick load key pressed during the death movie was causing a crash afterwards.
<< MM6 >>
[-] Text files fixes for Russian (Buka) version by tolich.

================================================================================



Your latest patch is crashing when I try to enchant something from time to time. When you 'enchant item' the paperdoll area seems messed up as well (Armor and stuff is showing)

[GrayFace]

Version 2.3.1
<< MM6, MM8 >>
[+] Right click menu works in item selection dialog of Enchant Item and similar spells. In MM7 it already works by default.
<< MM6 >>
[-] My bug: Enchant Item and Golden Touch spells were bugged, effected by PaperDollInChests option.

[Anubis]

Way to go! The PaperDollInChests feature looks great!

[EstelRandir]

New in version 2.2:
<< MM6 - MM8 >>
[+] StretchWidth and StretchHeight parameters specify the factors by which the game area gets stretched to reduce black bars on the sides. StretchWidthFull and StretchHeightFull parameters are used only if it makes the game occupy the whole screen.

I installed the game. Then installed Greyface patch 2.3.1. The default options for these parameters = 1. When I run the game, there are wide black bars on each side of the game window. When these parameters are set=1, is this the stretch ratio of 1.0 or does this simply mean the option is being used? If these are the ratio's, then how do I set them to stretch properly for my resolution (1920x1080)?

[Novi]

If these are the ratio's, then how do I set them to stretch properly for my resolution (1920x1080)?

Set StretchWidth to about 1.33. Of course, the resulting image, as the name implies, will be stretched (distorted), but if that's what you prefer.
