[Mod] Reign of Terror

[Ram]

If you respec all points and put them into mastery bar then you can get WW at lvl 18.

With audio from D2 and act 2 reminding me of Titan Quest’s Egypt, this mod’s been a very welcome wave of childhood nostalgia, can’t wait to see what acts 3-5 bring.

The number of times I sit next to a waiting portal or cave entrance just to continue listening to the current music keeps growing.

currently at act 4, This is one awesome mod.

First off, awesome mod! Haven’t played it in a couple months and it’s really coming together.

One issue I had today was a skin of vipermagi dropped and vanished right when it hit the ground. I tried messing with the filters and it wasn’t there. All the drops from the electric mage elite by the arcane sanc portal in palace cellar level 2 vanished when they hit the ground. Not sure if that’s happened to anyone else.

Regardless, keep up the good work!

Update: I went to the far edge of the screen and it appeared but when I approached it, it disappeared. Maybe it has something to do with the blue rug it fell on? Lol not sure, but I ended up grabbing it.

Enjoying the updates so far, Ram. You’ve been very busy I see. A couple things I’ve noticed:

1. On the green skull shrines that give the random bonus, the skull appears behind / underneath the pedestal instead of floating above it at some angles.

2. The quest emblems floating above Deckard Cain’s head are smaller than everyone else’s.

3. Fire Bolt still makes my screen shake when I hit someone with it. I’m fine with screen shakes for a powerful spell with a cooldown, but it is annoying for a spell that is meant to be spammed.

I’ll let you know what else I come across.

That rug just wanted some gear upgrade as well

Thanks for the report.

1. Have to look into it.

2. Unfortunately, all character effects are tided to character’s scale and I had to reduce Cain’s size by quite a bit since rescaling the model in Max didn’t yield the results I was expecting. I can ask Zakk if there is anything he can do about it… but for now, it’s likely to stay this way.

3. I see… haven’t changed impact fx. Fixed (4 real now).

I made an account here just to say thanks for the hard work and how awesome it looks. Can’t wait until it’s done. Some friends and I already have plans for a LAN party.

It might never “be done”. After Act 5 is done the team plans on creating new content for the mod.

I’m only in act2 but I have to say this mod is absolutely fantastic… The map making especially is inspired
Kudos to the whole team!

Regarding charms from a few pages back: Have you considered going the MedianXL route and only making charms drop from certain side-bosses or challenges? Or creating side-quest challenges that reward the soul-bound charm so they can only be gotten once per character. This would limit the amount of clicking on duration buffs if they are kept to a couple per difficulty. Or create 1 super charm with recipes to upgrade it with tokens earned from these side quests in the cube.

Oh I know, I just meant Acts I-V essentially. The extra stuff they’ve talked about is just a bonus to me really. I just can’t believe we’ll have a playable HD Diablo 2 essentially. :D:D

[KmljKaljich]

You misunderstand. What Goober means is there “never will be” a final version as in the team will keep updating with new content after releasing all the acts. The game is already very playable even in multiplayer, as long as all the quests are completed by the player that started the LAN game to avoid issues.

Correct me if I’m wrong but I think I read Ram saying that multiplayer was still a bit buggy and that after he finished the main acts he could go back and fix any issues multiplayer still had. All I meant by “done” was for him to finish Acts I-V mainly so I could see what the recreation looks like in HD. I get that he’s adding more.

[Ram]

Indeed.

The only thing I won’t be able to fix are bugs that are present in vanilla Grim Dawn, like occasional desync.

Not to put you on a deadline or anything but do you have a rough guess when you might have that finished? Either way I think you’re making a lot of people happy with this so keep up the great work! Also is there a way to support you?

Act 5 itself is going to take at least 5 months to make so definitely not sooner than that.

Also is there a way to support you?

Not for this project but you are more than welcome to support my next project that I’ll make after RoT is finished. Cannot share more info yet as it is still very early WIP.

Awesome man, keep us updated about whatever you try next!

[KmljKaljich]

Yup, really awesome, and would be great to be able to support you in some way.
Hopefully Crate Entertainment recognizes it and hires you (?)

Hi. after update have problem with some graphics duno everywhere where is javelin. its like stripes on screen… tried reinstall couple times… still the same… on 2.0 its oki after update all the time the same problem with one item… if someone somewhere is wearing javelin- like desert merc or some of mobs…

Same here. And game is freezing when any mob is come with javelin. So i cannot use javelin either.

I have the same problem and it is is kinda unplayable like that. Is there an easy way for me to remove javelins from the mod?
