First time I’ve tried out a season with GD, gotta say you guys have done a stellar job!

A lot more new content than I was expecting and the latest patch sounds like it’ll remove the small leveling frustrations I’ve had with the ambush ghosts :+1:

I also really like that I can just keep progressing in Normal/Vet to high level and then jump to Ultimate, it’s a cleaner experience. I’ve got a L81 Spellbreaker and a L61 Reaper, both heaps of fun.

Can you date and time the file? In order to distinguish between old and new, without downloading everything.

Why is there nothing left? Is it updating?


hmmm, works for me

Rainbow Warrior! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Hi, its my first time in the forum and specifically creating an account wanting to play Grim League Season 5. My issue: I only have 1.1.9.6 GD and not the latest patch (9.8). Do you have your previous Season 5 patch that is applicable to 9.6? I only plan to play offline. I have no plans for update as of the moment and also played Season 4 previously. Please share the Season 5 patch that is applicable to older versions (1.1.9.6).
BTW, I am fan of GD from the beginning when it was level 75 to 85 and now 100. Its been years already and had multiple patches and mods. Its a great game and with this added content from this season will make it much better. Hope you have the Season 5 to share for older versions, its been a few weeks, I should have downloaded it sooner. Thanks.

Game version only matters if ypu play online. On the website you can download each mod file, should be in the faq iirc

Downloaded the files (resources) and tried creating a mod folder. Could not find it in Custom Game. I am not sure if I am doing things right - I think I am missing the database file? (cant also create an account in discord - captcha issues). Anyway, am I missing something? Been looking in the this site and over the net on how to install, instructions or videos and have not gotten any progress.

You can download the database file where you also got the other ones from, it is the second to last entry. Make sure you put this one into the database folder, not the one named resources. The mod folder has to be named GrimLeagueS05.

Thanks Serious_Stan and Van_Houck for your help. Folder mapping and found instructions on installation also in nexusmods for Cataclysm mod.
It works and will start my character back to 1 as usual for this season.

Hey guys i have a question.I play from my pc at home the mode, but i wanna play on my laptop too.The problem is that it shows 0 characters.Do i need to manually transfer them on my laptop from the save folder of the pc? There is no cloudsave for the mode?

Normally you would have to manually do it, yes. I guess you could use the cloud, but some features of the season might no longer work (for example point tracking), but I’m not exactly sure what else - you should still be able to play the campaign and so just fine though.

Just registered to say, u should try it if not it amazing expierience now. Devs are awesome, ty for this!

Guys any recomendations on best farming arreas for hunter coins?

The new mines area (Asterkan Watch), lots of bodies on the ground there to pop the ambushers.

Hi guys, my points is not updating after killing bosses, even with the game saying that i am earning points fot that kill. Am i doing something wrong?

hmmm, do you have the display in the top left? and does it say “online”? Did you maybe already defeat that boss before or on another character? You only get points once per account.

this display?
