The Darkest Day -- Help

Mitro Jellywadder · 10-18-2001, 05:49 PM

I finished downloading it and installed it. **jumping with
joy** I went to play it and it loads up fine. The info
with the download said it had 75 new kits. Do you have
to do something else to get access to the new kits, or should
they be available from the start. (I started a new game and
there's still nothing. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
in advance.

Are you sure there were no new kits? Mind you there are no new classes, so the list of classes didn't increase. Just check the Fighter class for example, plenty of new kits.

If you indeed have a problem, I advise you to go to the official darkest day forums ( http://www.teambg.net/tdd ) and report it over there. But check again, this sounds like a very strange bug, especially considering I had no problems with them.

I tried male or female, every class, and it just had the same
old kits. I already uninstalled ToB, so it wasn't that. I'm
going to uninstall my SoA and see if that helps. So much for
all my saved games.

Hmm... I assume you reinstalled SoA when you were prompted to? And did you start a new game? I believe it says you have to do that for the stuff to work... Hmm...

Ehm... Darkest Day is not compatible with Throne of Bhaal, so if you installed Darkest Day over BG2+TOB, it won't work... And uninstalling ToB won't work either in that stadium anymore I think, it's already too late by then...
Have you tried installing BG2 and then TDD (thus not installing Throne of Bhaal)? Oh and you won't lose any savegames when you uninstall BG2, don't worry.

It's working now that I've reinstalled it. (I tossed out the
saved games and everything that was associated with BGII, to
make sure it worked.
This expansion is awesome

I just got my brand-new
Dragon slaying paladin stomped by some bugbears and a mephit.
How embarrasing

I guess they weren't kidding around
with the new stuff. There are some cool looking spells also.

Encard · 10-18-2001, 08:43 PM

*sigh* I'm still downloading it... or I would be if something wasn't wrong with the download site I chose, which suddenly broke after about 2 or 3 hours of downloading... *sigh* And of cxourse a new download I started to test the site does work... I guess they just hate me.

try downloading this though a 28k modem all i can say is omg its increditable painful 2 day and night so far only 40% done but i can't buy the cdrom

Mitro Jellywadder · 10-19-2001, 12:02 AM

I sure do love DSL. It took about an hour. I'm still trying
out the new kits. They're pretty good.

(There might actually be too many kits, I keep scrapping my
characters after a couple of fights.)

Just wait and see, there are more painful encounters in Irenicus' dungeon which will surprise you...

SPOILER: How about a wraith, Ogres, an Ettin? Especially the wraith is annoying, most of all since I'm not rich enough to buy a restoration scroll or experienced enough to cast one myself...

...But it is refreshing, a real challenge!
