EfU v1.4.0a has been released - A major bug fix release!

[Ziroc]

I have finally killed all (atleast I believe) of the bugs and errors in EfU.
As well as some changes, and some REALLY cool news!

Cool News: I found an external program called "Lilac Souls Script Generator", and this program simplifies the creation of some VERY hard scripting with a few clicks! It's totally amazing. It'll save me HOURS! As well as being easier, I can now script some very detailed and sophisticated quests, as well as other things. More on that in the coming days!

Changes made:

* Drow Proving Ground Attackers are not as hard as before--still hard, but tweaked to where you don't have to sit there for hours.

* Added some scripting using that new program in the tavern
* Cleaned up some of the merchants inventory in the lower levels. (Who wants a +4 sword on level 13?)

* Other changes


Bugs Fixed:

* Fixed Durnan Training Loophole
* Fixed Friendly Cave Beholder Quest XP loophole
* Fixed Proving Grounds Guard not taking the 12 Gems
* Fixed Drow Ranger in Proving Grounds (I HOPE)
* Corrected the DIVIDE BY ZERO error seen in Muriel's Gauntlet and Voidplane
* Fixed Kraken Society Spy Quest Error
* Corrected the Ogre that was not killable in Skullport Southquarter
* Added the Drow Sword Reward that was missing from Ben's Quest to kill Lester
* Removed Gypsy Encounter -- they could mess your reputation by -1 pt when killing them. (odd)...
* Removed the incorrect "Hellball Scroll" that was actually a timestop scroll
* Level 13's Drow House correction - Drow House guards now attack you!
* Removed the code that would give you XP everytime you entered the game with a plot item for a quest undone.
* Other Placeable bugs fixed
* Some script XP / Item / gold corrections--changes


I'm about to upload the new version right now (3:23PM). Been playtesting for 8 hours now!! Gonna go to sleep for a bit, lol!

Now, I'm going to finish up the levels that are planned for release this Month! Check the sign in the tavern for more details! Oh, and is you see any more bugs, remember to post them in that 'bug' thread, or if it's REALLY serious, PM me.

Thanks to everyone that has helped me track these bugs down!!!

You got that Beholder Quest bug right ? The one where you could get 30,000 XP everytime you talk to Rouge of Westgate as she never took the Beholder eyestalk off you ?

Other than that well done Z! Top stuff there!

[Ziroc]

Yep! Got that one too! [img]smile.gif[/img]

Yeah they just wern't there when I was in there this morning. All the protectors were there but no Drow. I checked the ground for loot incase some one else had killd them but nothing was there.

I'm sure that no one had been through before me for a few reasons

1. The secret passage to Skullport was still hidden.
2. The grate to the teleporters were still hidden
3. All the traps on level 12 and 13 were still there
4. The half dragon and all the orcs were still there.

Hope this helps!

well, I just went there for s test run, and they were there. had to leave again, kids are fighting.

Awww MAN! I wanted to fight some drow this morning. Guess they were scared of me.....

My Archer with a AB of upto 84 must have scared them off.

BTW I LOVE the new twist in the proving grounds.

[Stormymystic]

oh and thanks for getting rid of that scroll, people who did not know what it was would buy it and use it [img]smile.gif[/img] I remember I accidently used it like 4 or 5 times, drove everyone crazy...
can not wait until kids go to bed, then I get to go back on and start from level 1 and see what has changed
