The balance mod for Arcanum

invalid@example.com (Fred) — Tue, 01 Oct 2024 12:59:22 +0000

Come one, come all.

For a few years now I have been working on a balance mod for Arcanum for my own enjoyment.

It is pretty much done now.

So what does my mod do?

Well in short it balances all weapon styles and magick to do about the same damage. And the broken stuff has been nerfed or removed.

Here are a few examples of major changes

-All healing is very low in combat (not really useful in combat). Fate points have been removed for this reason.

-Backstab heavily nerfed, prowling...

Dusty Dunes sapling quest?

invalid@example.com (ravenlord) — Thu, 22 Aug 2024 12:41:03 +0000

Hi, has anyone managed to get the sapling quest to work? I used the latest Dusty Dunes "Team A" patch and got all of the other side quests to work, but the sapling quest still seems broken. I have high enough INT and Persuasion to get the Elven Spring Water, but giving it to the sapling just produces a "you see no effect" message. Spoil away please, I would like to know if or how this can be completed. Thanks in advance.

Lost Dungeon of Souls

invalid@example.com (ravenlord) — Tue, 18 Jun 2024 03:18:22 +0000

Is there any way to get the dat file for the "Lost Dungeon of Souls" module? I have the exe file but it won't run as the executable keeps saying that it cannot find an original disc installation. I bought the GoG version, and I guess it does not recognize that. Thanks.

Balance/Gameplay Mod: Professor Bowtie's Arcanum Complete

invalid@example.com (Spanky McGuire) — Thu, 08 Sep 2022 22:52:25 +0000

Hi, all. I’m sorry for this very long post, but I’d like to introduce a new mod for this old game, one that I feel provides significant improvements and refinement that should have appeared in the initial release. This is “Professor Bowtie’s Arcanum Complete,” and I’d love your feedback. The mod is in development, but it works fine now, with several playtesters saying it adds balance and challenge to the game. I'm looking for more playtesters to help me make this the best version of Arcanum....

Looking for a module soundtrack

invalid@example.com (Pollux88) — Mon, 11 Apr 2022 12:48:26 +0000

Hello good people of Terra-Arcanum, I hope old connoisseurs are still around. I'd appreciate if you could help me find a specific soundtrack to a module. The premise is as follows:

A really really long time ago I downloaded some custom Arcanum module the name of which I can't remember. I'm pretty sure it was French. I couldn't play it for some reason (probably because it was French), but It had its own soundtrack that I checked out in the resources and there was one kicking tune that I...

is it possible to use the highres patch 1.1a with the mod WIP6.0?

invalid@example.com (namad) — Sun, 07 Oct 2018 12:49:32 +0000

WIP6.0 is listed as incompatible with the unofficial patch by drog, and the highres patch requires the unofficial patch yes?

But one reason WIP6.0 is incompatible is because it includes many of the same features as the unofficial patch but not all. So if I want to run WIP6.0 in a window in HD using the highres patch will that work?

Mod: Followers Auto-Level

invalid@example.com (FilthyJack) — Mon, 29 Jan 2018 01:22:29 +0000

Hello, I've been playing with this for some time so why not release it.

This is a mod that allows your followers to adjust their level to yours when they join/rejoin you.
It works fine with the followers I could test so the others should be good too. You can use existing savegames with this as well.

Edit:

Alright, I've been able to complete this mod.

-Works for all followers except the temporary ones (IEoc Roberts).
-Compatible with the US version patched to 1074 + UAP.

English Adaptations of 'Affaire' and 'Mystere'

English Adaptations of 'Affaire' and 'Mystere'

There are many short single-player adventures for Arcanum available at http://arcanumlab.free.fr. These were created by Triblonto, and are in the French language. I was recently searching for some new Arcanum related experiences, and began looking into these mods. From what I've seen, they're fun and each one offers a full afternoon's worth of entertainment. In general, gameplay is focused on interacting with interesting characters...

Custom Background Balance

invalid@example.com (FactualInsanity) — Sun, 03 Jan 2016 18:38:51 +0000

Not the most inspired thread title, I know. And it's probably fairly cliché as a first post either, but I've got an itch to scratch and questions on how to scratch it.

To put an unnecessarily long story short, I have an idea for a particular type of RP of Arcanum I want to do and I like to make custom backgrounds designed around the character I want to make. Usually I don't care about balance as the point is to have fun, but this time I want to try something new and it's fairly important...

I'm about to try my hand at making my first few custom backgrounds, and i would like everyone's opinion of how balanced they are, and on the feasibility of them. Yes I'm aware there are formatting inconsistencies and other errors too.

and one free 'like' to anyone that reviews them and can name, specifically, all the references.

Car Arcanum

invalid@example.com (on1ondevelopment) — Thu, 31 Dec 2015 04:41:37 +0000

I've seen a lot of old forum posts about the Car Arcanum mod, it seems like a great one. However, I cannot find it at the downloads page here, and an Internet search gives me nothing. Does anyone know where I can find this mod, or if you have it on your computer and could send it to me?
