My dear players!
And after another all long years the Battle for Elements 1.80 has been released! This is a new base version so you will have to start over from the scratch as your previous characters will not be compatible with the new version due to basic changes. Please see the full list of changes below.
Remember that is base version, not an update, so you no need any previous versions to install version 1.80. You may get 1.80 here:
launcher edition
D2SE edition
Global changes:
Both native resolutions were replaced with 1024x768 and 1280x768 (with D2ExpRes)
Launcher changes:
- Gem container fix. Gem containers appear in gamble now (made by lordvampir)
- When player disable gamble filter gamble window is filled with all permitted items now (made by lordvampir)
- Too many check marks fix - the game could crash when too many check marks were set in gamble filter (made by lordvampir)
- Now you can add some D2Mod plugins to the mod if you want. Just run the launcher for the first time and add plugins to new "plugins.ini" file. REMEMBER that you are acting at your own risk, as I cannot guarantee support for any plugin that is not included in the BFE (made by lordvampir)
- Some functionality was added by AlHazrad
Gameplay features:
- /PlayersX command now supports value up to 16. Monster HP % multipliers for this command: 0,50,100,150,200,250,300,350,450,600,800,1050,1350,1700,2100,3000. As you can see /Players 9-16 made especially for those, who think BFE is too easy.
Graphics features:
- 3dfx glide mode (with D2GL 1.3.1 modified by rnd2k)
- PlugY 14.03 HD version modified by rnd2k
- New icons for elemental plane portals by AlHazrad
