Things I'd love to see added

Post by Dem »

Hey all my first request for this game............ An arrow to point you to your kill/collection target in dungeons! Second a flash warning to where an enemy that isn't on screen is, i.e. where's that darn arrow firing from! Next I would like an editor for advantage/disadvantage system so I can make a few I'd like to see with a dummies guide attached. A major quest fix with a bar to see how close you are to next ranking in guilds. A warning that my rep with factions have shifted up or down i.e. factions hate me or love me more. When you protect a mage in guild traveling to aetherius 3 assassin's spawn they all carry exact same equipment I'd like to see a fix. Unlimited time to do main quest line I hate having to drop my quest and run to this or that person to keep the story going! A warning of what disease I've contacted as it happens without hiding it for 3 minutes i.e. it's warning doesn't go away for 3 minutes. More to follow later guy's

You can find that in the Archaeologist guild mod. They sell locator devices that can be activated once you've explored about a quarter of the dungeon and then you get a mental marker for your objective. It's still in development, feedback is welcome. :)
See my mod code for examples of how to change various aspects of DFU: https://github.com/ajrb/dfunity-mods

Putting markers on the map was something I missed in Daggerfall. It was so much harder for them to implement when the maps went 3D. If you had chalk in your inventory you could mark the wall with arrows etc. :-)

Thanx for that. Strange things happened. First unity is DX 11 and it ran on DX 9. All mods worked like a charm and i had a buttload of fun. Lastly a power surge from either the grid or something in my comp broke and now wont turn on at all my guess is the power supply surged or something issued the "blue smoke of death" while over at a lady friends overnight. So until i can get a diagnostic done and budget for repairs/upgrades i cant play. If we could get a phone version of Daggerfall I'd so play but until my comp is up and running farewell and dont let her die!

Ouch. :( It's not a guarantee, but a surge protector and surge protected battery can help.
Previous experience tells me it's very easy to misunderstand the tone, intent, or meaning of what I've posted. If you have questions, ask.

Advantages/Disadvantages are currently hardcoded. Release 1.0 has to come at some point, and a number of final mod support items can only really happen after 1.0, or if someone takes the time to maintain them through various codebase changes, themselves. :)
