Arcanum:WIP 2.2 (Beta) Now Available

Nevermind about the atlas :lol:

And no, I thought that there was a big boat in Dernholm :/

 

Not yet.....

 

That's odd, I remember there being one in retail Arcanum :???:

Also, do you have any plans on nerfing Worthless Mutt?

 

Nope.

 

Well maybe you should think about that, heh.

I have a question: Is it possible to make an Ironman mode? (If you die once the game is over)

 

Probably, but I have knowledge how or interest in doing so.

 

Ahhh, ok I had been wondering about all that. I like storing stuff in a safe place, and packratting is more difficult as a halfling


About the IronMan mode:
If you die, why not just delete all your saved games for that character? That would be the same thing; it would just require some self discipline.

 

That's it, I don't have self discipline :lol:

I would really want to try Ironman mode

Whatever.

 

A storyline idea just popped into my head: How about Brandybuck is the town that Gorgoth rampaged through and eat all the halflings in? Maybe after word passed that Gorgoth was banished to The Void, people started moving back there? And maybe if you bring back Gorgoth's head from The Void (considering you killed him), you can give it to the man in charge in Brandybuck and get a reward or something

 

I'll think about it.

 

Thank you so much for this!
Just discovered it yesterday and now I'm back to playing Arcanum again :thumbup:

 

Welcome to the forum, Hans!

Glad I could be of service.

 

By the way, I suggest you change the music of the Shrouded Hills Library. It seems a bit too eerie for a happy temple/library place :/

 

What's playing now is the most upbeat tune available.

I thought about using one of the milder songs like "villages" or "wilderness", but since the library is near the beginning of the game and you have a million possibilities ahead of you, I left the original "mines" music in place.

 

Btw is there a list of all the changes this mod makes to the original game somewhere?

 

Just what's scattered across the three announcement threads - at the moment.

I made some books for in the game that will list the changes from one release to another. The current release book will remain in the chest at the crash site, while the older books will be in the Shrouded Hills library.
These are listed as Forgotten Places (something).

 

ok thanks

 

just got to tarant with my character now and discovered a Louis Devon Residence which I've never seen before. It's just 1 room with 5 or 6 chests and a safe in it (with quite good items and a lot of money in them)
Is this added by your mod or has it always been there and I've never noticed?

 

I added it.
It was just an empty building but now it's a free place to sleep and store stuff.

 

ok good
I love storing stuff in safes
