The Heroes Round Table

Ah, then you'd either need to replace "local BatchAdd = mem.BatchAdd" with definition from the older file or upgrade to new MMExt, which I'm hoping to release very soon. If you'd like, you can put the new MMExt somewhere and drop me a line in private, I'll happilly toss it in and report i...

If you have something to take the place of the installer, I would like to make it available to everyone concerned. :tsup: Yes, when all's done I'll also make available for standard TCC. I have a new email address. click on Daveher under the icon (avatar) to send email. Got the save file, so I have ...

No, because of the way Part 2 is installed with an installer created by Big Daddy Jim and for that reason I can not modify part 2. :( Sorry. Don't bother with BDJ's installer. I can help you do without it. The disappearing ground is quite troubling though, Ellesia is really flickery. The entire gat...

I'm just so used to the map being on the top right from playing MM6 for so long. I love the new interface with GrayFace's patch, but is there a way to change the location of things, so I can move the automap from the bottom to the top (or at least the center)? Maybe I'll include it into the patch a...

I'd like to ask how to disable strafing in mouse look mode in MM8, according to readme "NormalStrafe=1" in mm8.ini should do the trick, but that doesn't seem to have any effect for me. Using the most recent v2.5.7 [Mar 4, 2022] patch. Oops, I called it StandardStrafe in code and NormalStr...

I think I need to add such a patch for MMExt too, but for the task it would be better to change stats in MonstersTxt in addition to local monsters instead. This will make attributes of monsters that are summoned consistent.

Looks like IrfanView is even doing it slightly better than PhotoShop. Now recommended process is (very briefly):
Use DefTool2 to combine images, then IrfanView to convert to 8 bit, then Alt+Tab back to DefTool2 and Split it.

The easiest way to avoid all this is to disable UAC. https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/glo ... l-uac.html

On my patch side of things, I think I need to redirect registry operations to ini, but that would only solve this issue if the game isn't in a protected folder.

Here's the easiest way: print(dump(Map.Sprites)) (write this in Ctrl+F1 console of MMExtension) For spawns of monsters and items: print(dump(Map.Spawns)) If you open the map with the editor first, print(dump(table.invert(Editor.State.Sprites))) would provide a cleaner output. There's also batch sav...

Did repo get vandalized?

It seems like I can find duplicates of some artifacts like Mordred, but not others like Percival. Mordred in that chest isn't randomly generated, so it's not counted towards found artifacts. Monsters also have ranged attacks that aren't spells, like arrows, dragons' breath attacks, or various 'magi...

Quick question, I had to dismiss a character to take on the troll for the main quest. However the dismissed character is not in the adventurer’s inn anymore… Is it gone forever? It’s not hard to replace but the cavaet is that he had all the cheese for that “cheese” quest in his inventory :( My bad....

DisableHooks=44D96C,44DD9A,4541C9,47DA26,47DAA8,497A69 The map loaded without crash! Now, I have NO idea what the above line does, other than apparently disable features of your patch. Am I missing out on things by including that line? This one: [-] Now, when a location re-spawns, all artifacts gen...

I deleted new.lod, started a new game, saved it, then loaded the save that caused the crashes. CTDs still occurred. I sent you a PM with the requested files. Thanks for your help! Of course it did, because it has bad data. However, what's strange is that the autosave also contains wrong data. Are y...

If it makes any difference, this save was started using the 2.5.6 version of the patch that came pre-installed with the Merge file package. It never touched old patch versions. I suppose it might be that those map files were made in MMEditor using an older version of the patch. That would make some...

Can you think of anything that might have changed in the MM8 patch since then that could cause consistent crashes on map load with custom maps (edited in MMEditor), and what I can do as a workaround? It's a newgame autosave corruption bug that's been present in my patch since the beginning of custo...
