"Adventure" Mod

[bladeking77]

Did you put it in the "sessions" folder? It has to be in there to work!

C:\Program Files\Kings Bounty Armored Princess\adventure <- Not good.

Hi everybody, i love playing this game and i've decided to make my own campaign with my brother base on main campaign, redsands and this mod. Right now, my campaign has all of original islands, redsands island, 2 small islands (6x6) and a moderate-big island (10x10) which i nearly finish it. I found that the original game was too easy because their is no point using low level creatures such as devil fish; peasant or even level 4 like assassin, polar bear. People often use level 5 creature and strategies such as repair droid or blacknight, paladin with phantom etc.So, i decided to increase the price of higher level creature while keep or even decrease the price of lower level creature. For example: a black dragon cost about 40k gold to buy while a sea dog cost only 100 gold. Furthermore, i increase the enemy's strength up to 300% (impossible) and decrease the gold income as well as mana recover speed/rage flow ... I have a some questions:

-Actually, i haven't beaten the game yet i decide to stop playing and start making maps when i was in Montero. Can you guys give me some advises on difficulty. Did i'm too arrogant or enemy will be more nasty after Montero. Any recommendation will be appreciated.

-In my oppinion, the game editor is quite powerful, why you guys complained too much about it. I know it can cause crashes and you will lose your progress but this is not a big problem if you save the progress more often

-For bladeking77: are you still making a next version of your mod, i mean adventure v1.2. Why don't you use the exp system of Redsands mod ?

Sorry for my bad English

Yeah, with one slot strategy, impossible in origimal game is so easy.
It even make me want quit want get hand on black knight. Too simple and repeatly combat. I think your opinion it really good. But I think if you can make sysem like exp: The more hero use one type creatures, the more this type creature decrease stats (like decrease 10% att, def, HP for Black Dragon after hero use this at 100 combat) . It will require player can think more strategy.

hey langtu87 i have sent a private message to you.

I think i cannot change the exp system as you said. Because it is too complicated. I just use the same system as redsand but i increase the strength of enemy. I also reduce the effect of phantom because it is a very powerful spell. The enemy also can gain exp so it won't be overpower.

1) In my opinion. Armored Princess is only difficult in the beginning. Namely, until you reach 20+ level, defeat Hagni, get Pegasus, and with some luck, steal maps for all islands, then you go gathering goods, completing free quests for lots of exp., and from there the game gets only easier. Only Bosses and high level heroes can provide a challenge. Off course, I'm talking about impossible difficulty here, lower difficulties are always easy.

2) I don't know about you, but editing terrain on my editor is impossible. after 10-20 seconds of applying textures, or leveling terrain editor inevitably crashes. I have multiple games installed, and it's the same on all of them. Not sure what causes this problem, but there are no crashes when I try to do the same on other computers. And even before this issue has arisen, I remember that the editor was buggy and hard to work with.
Beside these issues, editor is quite useful for other stuff.

3) I am not currently working on newer version, but I might release it in the future. I thought about using exp system from RS, but I don't know which files should I copy for it to not cause any bugs.

Just a question. How do you change the difficulty of the enemy back to 150%? Normal is too easy for me but I feel like 175% is a bit much.

And one more thing. When I came to Verona with your mod, I didn't see any sign of Halt and Azzak. But when I look in the editor they have a 100% spawn chance so it's really weird. Have you touched those troops at all?

One more question, I saw your post somewhere in the forum that you could open KBTL maps in the editor. Can you explain how to do that, I try many times but i just cant open it by any way

[bladeking77]

@DeepSoul:

I did not edit their positions. From my experience gathered from multiple play-troughs, Halt can either be on Verona or Montero and it's similar with Azzak. It's completely normal for them not to be there, that is, in my opinion.

@infernal1800:

I'm not sure how "exactly" I did it, but you can try copying the folder inside the "sessions" folder from The Legend to "sessions" folder in Crossworlds. They do have some incompatibilities, which it will report, but it should open it fine.
If it doesn't work, let me know, and I'll try to look into it.

OK.....

So I tried your mod and so far it looks fine, but I constantly get pop-up windows where some sort of recource is requested. Seems like missing files or missing links. I did a complete reinstall and installed everything new but no change.

Also many descriptions seems missing and only show the link of the variable and not the text itself. Examples of that are King Frederick's last comment at the beginning or various skill-descriptions.

Anything I maybe missed to install?

Anyone an idea why I continue to get wierd text during game and bug-messages for missing content?
