DoddTheSlayer_1.2 Complete

[DoddTheSlayer]

I decided to release the entire 1.2 versions complete with all the patches as a self-extracting mod.

Here are the Links for it:


Normal version http://www.mediafire.com/?izt3yewdls2

Expert version http://www.mediafire.com/?l9k6oidynjm

Hopefully this makes things easier for anyone new trying the mod and anyone else who needs to download it again in the future.

The other links for the mod and the patches are all gone now. Only from these two links is the mod available.

[DoddTheSlayer]

Sorry. Those links are no good now. I uploaded the wrong version.

Go Here for the new Links:

So, what did I just download? A patch or a mod? Maybe you could explain it a little better?

[DoddTheSlayer]

It is the entire mod with the latest patch applied so that there is no need to patch it up.

So, what's different in this mod? The readme file doesn't say anything about it.

I'm really having a hard time getting this to run. I've unistalled the game several times and put your mod in. It looks exactly the same. What differences should I see?

I also have one directory that says Sirtech and another that says Wizardry 8. I can't remove the Wiz 8 one 'cos it says it's associated with something else. It's bugging the heck out of me. I don't think your mod is installing to the right place, even though I used the default directory.

[DoddTheSlayer]

To know that you have installed the game correctly the beginning screen will say "Welcome to DoddTheSlayer 1.2" instead of "the time of the Ascension is at hand"

You will find some new items in the starter chest also.

To get the mod to install correctly the path should have the drive letter that your game is installed on follwed by
Program files\Sirtech thats it, nothing more. Do not include Wizardry 8 in the path.

Unpack the the mod onto your desktop first and then click on the wizardry 8.exe file from there.

It Seems that a few people from different sites are not finding istallation so simple so go here for detailed instructions:

Ok, it did look exactly the same and the items were the same. I didn't get the "Welcome to DoddTheSlayer 1.2" as I knew I should have. I'll try to unpack it as you suggest, again.

[DoddTheSlayer]

Contact me by email to resolve this.

Then again if you do that nobody else would benefit. You can if you want though, but lets try something here also.

Open up your games sirtech folder and tell me what you see.

[Variol (Farseer) Elmwood]

Ok,
I unpacked it to Program Files\Sirtech. It's working now. I wonder where those other files were unpacked to...

[DoddTheSlayer]

Great. You are the first person here to try it.
let me know how it goes.
