Re: The Black Parade
read the quest info, you need a sword to destroy it...
and about difficulty, It's really way too easy atm, I liked the difficulty of the old version way more. pls make it harder Shex, maybe not as hard as the old one but still challenging..

what's the chance of seeing some updates? there's something special here...
Re: The Black Parade
SheX promised make the BIG WORLD project (it must combine his mods) and post some screenshots at diablozone.net, but it was 2 or 3 years ago. But you can install original mod (TBPv1.0). It is more MORE difficult than this version.robizeratul" wrote:what's the chance of seeing some updates? there's something special here...

@Chiron
TBR is probably the most beautiful mod i have seen, it is how a Diablo game should look like. You can see the amount of detail and character that has been put into the mod, the atmosphere is perfect!
Anyway... do u have any link the BIG WORLD project? cause i dont seem to be able to find anything related to it.

Re: The Black Parade
A lot of water has flowed under the bridge since that time. The black parade is part of my soul. Diablo is part of my soul. I am very pleased to read what you write. I really want to release this mod. But .... I'm not the same as before, we all grew up. Job, days, routine ... I have a new computer, some of my work is lost. But I still have not deleted the "My Mods" folder.
I do not know why I went to this forum today, this thread. It felt like something, maybe it's Christmas spirit? But right now, I'll install Diablo II on my computer. I must keep the promise to you and to myself. The Black Parade must rise again!
Thank you for all your words. Thank you for your anticipation.
p.s. Translation into English - Google Translate.
Merry Christmas.

Re: The Black Parade
Yesterday, I restored all the mod files I had. I started the game with a new character and successfully passed the first act.
Mod is playable, no crashes or bugs are found.
And today at Christmas, I declare that the work on the mod is resumed.
Merry Christmas The Phrozen Keep.

Re: The Black Parade
Hi SheX.
Any update, or maybe it is too early to ask.
Just curious, anyway, I wanted to open some random chest but the game crashed with UNHANDLED EXCEPTION: ACCESS_VIOLATION (C0000005) error.
Reporting just in case since you said "no crashes"
I hope you will continue as you said and that at some point in the future we will be able to fully enjoy your mod, or at least act 2.
Thank you

Version from moddb.com should be without crashes. it was tested many times. I don't understand how you get bug.
Anyway try to download from this link http://www.moddb.com/mods/the-black-par ... rade-act-1
p.s. The Black Parade is NOT compatible with D2modSE.

D2modSE - Are you talking about D2SE as it says bellow or you think on sth else.
SheX - Lost Mage wrote: ↑Wed Apr 21, 2010 4:00 pmReq. Diablo II LoD 1.10 and D2SE Modmanager V2.2.0
I mean, no problem if it is not compatible with D2SE, but there are files for it included in download.SheX - Lost Mage wrote: ↑Wed Apr 21, 2010 4:00 pmInstallation:
For playing you must have D2SE Modmanager V2.2.0
Unpack The Black Parade folder in MODS folder in your D2 directory.
Run D2SE Modmanager and select The Black Parade.
Attention! DO NOT RUN MOD IN GLIDE MODE!!!
It doesn't matter if game crashed, it happened only once, and with some chest, anything else seems to work without any problem.
First quest is a little bit weird, there is some info about Runaway prisoner - you get sth from him once it is dead, with some lvl 1 skill (arcane door) which can't be used, and next time when I open the quest log it says that I should combine amulet and the sword in some bag.
I was able to kill all monsters with the starting gear, but I'm still trying to find out what/where is Fury of Enslaved Souls to destroy the Soul Controller, since it is immune to all as I can see.
Will be back if I succeed to complete the first quest.
Thank you once again.
Re: The Black Parade
Ok, I'll make new build.

About 1 quest, here is video guide by my test character, you can see, how to complete it.
Tonight or tomorrow i'll upload new build

upd.
Link to working version of the mod. Still act1, but without crashes(for me 99%). But! For me it works ONLY in glide mode.
Tested with D2SE. Install it as any D2SE mod plugin

Re: The Black Parade
Thank you very much.
Oh, thank you for a little bit of spoilers.
All your quests are really unique as I can/will see.
Now all works fine, runs a lot better, smooth, not only that, now I can also use glide, which is really really nice.

Hi SheX.
Is it possible to Reactivate quest number 3.
I'm asking because I am not able to do it fully.
I do have a cup for those blood altars and quest log did change to state where it says Find the Blood Altars etc, but the very first time I was too week and I wasn't able to finish the quest.
Now when I get into the room with the altars I can't activate them anymore as they are filled with the blood already, and no portal for me, and yes Akara translated the new cup.
Also, I have some info on some minor "errors/bugs", but will double check them once again, though I'm sure you are already aware of them and will have some questions for you, but I need some time to write and document all that properly.
Thank You once again.
This is really amazing mod.

Re: The Black Parade
No, this is not possible, but if you come back again after opening the portal, the portal must be open. I just checked it.Talic wrote: ↑Sun Mar 25, 2018 3:53 pm

Re: The Black Parade
Thank you for your quick answer.
But I am out of luck here.
There was no portal, and since there was no portal I tried with the new cup, but that didn't help either, that's why I asked.

Re: The Black Parade
Stay here. I'll make another entry.
------
upd.
Another build can be downloaded here.
Weird bug:
The game crashes if you create a druid. But you can play by the druid after creation - sorry.
Another entry added for quest 3. Hint - open the town portal in special place. Look for the corpse under the tree in the circle of fire in the dark wood.

Re: The Black Parade
I thought you were going to add sth and that is it.
But no, the entry you made looks awesome.
Thank you once again, act 1 quests completed, few things left to check in act1. - like Forbidden Garden - I'm curious does it exist or not, but don't answer anything, would like to figure it out by myself.
26.03.:
As I said, I have some "feedback", though I'm sure you already know about some things, but all this info is just in case - some info is just to write sth I noticed, of course some things could still be the part of your development:
1st quest - when I talk to Akara, quest log does say that I need to find the runaway prisoner, but as soon as I enter the cave quest log change even though I didn't kill the runaway prisoner yet, anyway, here is the image showing runaway prisoner with "wrong" quest log, which should appear after I kill him, right.
5th quest - it should be three, not tree; and it should be all essences, not all essence - if I'm not wrong :
Area name vs "map" name, check the image:
Images bellow showing "entrance" which I can't use - question: Am I supposed to use them, do they work actually?:
I guess this one is a bug, I shouldn't transform back to character in this area, right, but it changes a bit now and then.
Random:
Rat nest - it says pit level 2 after you get back to it through town portal.
Already reported - Row belt doesn't show up, at least Tangerine light belt of selfrepair produce that bug on my side.
I see some waypoints - one active in Mausoleum which you can use to travel to another waypoint, but of course you can't travel back to Mausoleum, Long way down has waypoint if I'm not wrong, still not in function.
When using 1280x768 resolution there is a weird inventory bug at the bottom of the inventory, affected for 2x2 and larger items when you wan't to put sth at the bottom, it kinda does't allow you, especially if you have some item above that area.
On some monsters (Prison overseer/cursed child/wraith corpse etc), I am not able to use Find potion skill, where Find item works on them - it is a little bit weird since with find item I am able to find potion on them.
First time I went with some different path to the Cathedral, then I activated Inner cloister waypoint. Next time I went through Jail and Inner cloister waypoint was deactivated.
Question about the GDOS map.
How to enter the marked area, only solution is to teleport as I was able to see
Why is there at least three map variations of GDOS area, I mean Hidden sector of jail is actually part of it, then way does it has its own map, this way GDOS map won't be fully updated with visited locations, same with the area shown on the last image, where GDOS waypoint is, there is only a little bit, but imo better if it is also a part of the GDOS "main" map.
Thank You for reading.
Regards, Talic
Re: The Black Parade
So...many...words %)
Ok, sorry about "tree" not "three" ... damn, so lol.. I'm russian and my English is "brilliant"
Sometimes I think that I write correctly but it is not. I'll check all things in your report, but later, Thank you.
About the GDOS - It is main my project of act 1. And there is 3 variations yes. Because it is 3 different maps(files and rows in levels.txt). But it is 1 location in my story.
Exploring GDOS the sector behind the sector. In different situations, you find yourself in different places. But it is one big jail/prison(sorry forgot right word). Also the reason for the three different files is the quests. Easy for understanding - GDOS it is tristram, catacombs level 4 and new locations IN ONE. It is 3 diferent maps in one.
About screenshot number 5 - it is ok. some exits will work as "exit only". Because you see that entry and cant click on it. You think that it is useless, but in this time it is an exit from another way to this location.
I hope in the text above there are not so many mistakes))

Re: The Black Parade
Don't worry about your language, even though some sentences you form are kinda weird I will understand them since I used to write like you do, even worse.
But my issue isn't writing anymore I would say, thing is that I have absolutely no accent if I am supposed to talk with someone, all my English knowledge is gathered by using this kind of forums, nothing else.
Is it possible that some area exist but maybe doesn't show or maybe not available through current map?
Would resetting the map help or am I missing sth here?
Also, does that Forbidden Garden exist in current patch, can't find anything as it says about it on the very first page of the topic:

Oh my... not "necessary". Currectly will be "door around monastery vicinities" or "near monastery vicinities"..
Some entrances look like entrances in real life, I mean doors or passages, but will not be shown on the map.

added video excursion for A2 Town

Re: The Black Parade
Amazing atmosphere... the best and most fitting atmospheric mod for Diablo 2. You pretty much nailed it.
If im not wrong you also have low monster density in the mod which just makes the whole thing even more fitting.

Re: The Black Parade
Hi SheX,
I'm impressed of your work and would love to see more content from you.
Played The Black Parade many years ago at Preview Status and was stunned about the atmosphere. I'm glad to found this version with the entire act 1, will definitely try it out.
Can we hope to see some updates in further future?
