Hey, things have been pretty quiet on the board lately. I haven't been doing much myself as I was waiting for the latest beta's release.
Sorry to the folk who aren't able to get the BL mod currently. Dunno if Rinsui is taking a break or what.
I'd upload my own copy, but it has personal modifications on it that might be buggy.
If anyone is a pro on integrating walls, I'd really like your help. Having some problems getting faction-specific wooden walls to work.
I'd be happy to put a link with a clean verion of it if anybody wants it.
Sorry for the double post but check the "New Link?" thread and click on the link in the second post by me. It will take you to the download. Hehe, I guess it's good that I save all of my downloads for future use.
Rinsui!
Love the work so far, been looking at the threads. I was wondering, have the stats been completed yet to make the campaign playable? im really lookin forward to using the Chosun to conquer asia!:2thumbsup:
as we say in Oz, goodonyamate!
Yes, sorry, Kita is right as always. I have been lazy during those last weeks (month?), but I never stopped modding on. If I don't post a new version this sunday, I'll officially step down as this mod's leader.
P.S.: I have no intention to let that happen ;).
Can't wait for the new version Rinsui!
Thanks alot for the new version !
You're welcome. This last time took ages, I have to admit. I had really very heavy problems with balancing the units, and that was wa slowed me down to 10% of my nomal speed. The new version includes an excel document called "BLTW_unitstats.xls" which may give you an impression of the formula I used for calculating a unit's recruitment, upkeep and upgrade costs. More interesting may be the lines "Melee total" and "Archery total" which should give you a pretty good impression of how strong the unit really is in melee and ranged combat. The attack and defense values you normally see in-game actually tell you *hit about that, for a projectile might have an attack value of 53, but an accuracy factor of .5, which means it will never hit (=in total: very bad). Another one might have an attack value of mere 8 but pinpoint accuracy and a blast radius of 4, which means it is an absolute killer.
For now, all human factions should be perfect, and if you pitch a unit wit a Melee Total (in the Excel file) of 40 agains a unit with a melee total of 50, the latter should win pretty consistently. And that's where you guys come in. Please try a few custom battles, and tell me whether the units "feel" like what you think they should.
@Kitagata: It's been a long time, and I fixed all the problems you mentioned in your last major post (unit pictures and descriptions). However, I have never done sounds as of yet (or at least I can't remember), so I am not able to fix the Singijeon sounds and the zombie stuff. If you could look into this matter... well, I don't really have to offer anything in return. Just the new version which is already around the corner ^.-
P.S.: Check out hiding with the "Kaonashi" unit.
When will we get delicious campaign D=!?
Once Rinsui loses his job, is expelled from his university and decides to divorce his wife, leaving behind his 2 children.
No, seriously. Sometime this Summer a rough beta should be ready.
I know this might upset the gameplay quite a bit but I though all Samurai would rather die than run from the enemies. Wouldn't they have locked_morale in-game?
Sorry, pilgrim. Gameplay > Cliche. Btw, if you look through export_descr_units.txt or the BLTW_unitstats.xls, you will notice samurai units already have above-average Morale. Still, they are human and intelligent enough to understand when it's better to turn and run to fight another time. Just a hint: Zombie units are an altogether different story...
That's great about the newest release. I'd happily work on the sounds, but I haven't had steady internet in about a month! The joy of changing jobs and moving...
I should be able to work on it in a few weeks.
Additionally, some time back I got the OK from Ran no Jidai to use their bridges/walls. Plus, since the mod seems to be dead and Wundai is going to release the current work, I think we should try to integrate their bridges and walls.
The problem is, while it seems pretty straitforward, I can't get the game to recognize faction specific wooden walls! I know it can be done, but I don't know what the game is bypassing and using PAKed info from.
I think I know all the txt s and files to change, but still nothing changes in the game.
If anyone out there knows about this stuff, please share your wisdom. I'd love to also get the now defunct Sanguo TW's Chinese walls into the game as well.
I completely agree, I just saying that seeing samurai run from "lesser foes" is kind of strange.:yes:Quote:
