Question regarding new levels with red portals.

Is it possible to have red portal levels generate as Maze type levels?
Preset type load fine as they don't require an entry tile or entry level but when I've tried to make Maze type levels I get an error related to no entry level.

For example I'm using tower level 1 as my maze type level removing all the Vis(0) and Warp(-1) so it doesn't try link to a level.
Doing this for preset works perfectly just as the game itself uses this method to load into the preset maps in act 5 via red portals.
After ensuring it doesn't link to a level for entry when creating the portal I get the error #747 which requires Maze type levels to have a explicit entry level.

The Red Portals from cube code, by default, is going to warp the player to a map entry tile.
Without a map entry tile in the new level it's going to crash.

Why not just warp into the forgotten tower level - the entry spot for tower level 1. That's a preset and then it lets you walk down the stairs to the maze level. Yes it does require you to make one for each of your maze levels but it's an easy work around.

Hey devurandom - is this compatible with your other mod, uvLOD? I know basemod is the "newer" mod, but it's missing a bunch of features that I love from uvLOD. Can I run both plugins at the same time without any issues? What would be the proper load order then?

The features that basemod is missing vs uvLOD:

- Larger Stash - 10x10 stash, 10x8 cube, and 10x6 inventory - you don't need to install
this as an addon anymore.
- Adds Infinite Respec and Infinite Personalize - user configurable
- Improves stats on magic/rare prefix-suffix - items like rings/amulet/charms etc. Stats aren't
perfect but are better, and there is still some room left for chance.
- Add option to change Quest Ring Reward type from Akara and Ormus to Unique rings
- add ExpMod option to Remove mlvl/clvl delta 10 experience penalty
- Includes a drop mod to give perfect stats for: Armor, Set, Superior, Unique, and Runeword Items
- Game forces 6 affix rares - weap/armo ring/amulet - each time they're dropped.
- Game forces 4 affix rare jewels each time they're dropped
- Infinite Imbue by Charsi
- Infinite Socketing by Larzuk
- Larzuk Always gives 2 sockets on magic items, instead of 50/50 chance of 1 to 2 sockets
- Improved drop rates for runes
- Experience penalty after level 70 removed

if i can't run both, is there a way to add these features above in an easy way? I especially like the larger inventory, infinite respec, perfect stats drop mod for uniques/sets/superiors/armor/runewords and socketing changes.

Also - what happened to uvLOD mod version 2.02 or 2.03? It looks like it used to exist, but now I can only find UVLOD v1.3.7 not version 2.0. Did you take it off the site?

>Can I run both plugins at the same time without any issues?
Probably not. There's likely to be lots of conflicts. I don't recommend or support that.

Copy Patch_D2.mpq from UVLoD into your BaseMod Installation and it would give you back those items listed above.

Some of the others missing are assembly code edits that modders like to add them selves. That's why I don't add them, unless I rewrite the functions in C to add something not easily done with code edits.

UVLoD 2.x had issues with false positives from antivirus companies that want to force software vendors to buy Digital Certs @ $80-$500/yr. Its deleted, and wont be re-uploaded.

EDIT: I changed my mind, UVLoD 2.02 was re-uploaded to Moddb.com

Hi - having a bit of an issue when trying to connect to B.Net.
I had hoped this mod was compatible with online play (I literally only want to see Item Levels) but doesn't seem to function for me.

Followed the instructions in the "Installation" .txt file and all seems to work perfectly when I check on single player / TCP/IP game.
When connecting to b.net the following issues occur.

Game tries to load, redirected to "patching" screen. Orb fills, asked to make changes, game tells me that I do not need the latest patch and that my current patch is more up-to-date than this one. Game crashes.

Any ideas on how to get past this or will I not be able to use this on b.net?
TIA

This update is awesome Devurandom, it makes me want to go back to work on my mod, I have to find some spare time

Great job as usual

[qwertyue]

How is this gambling refresh feature implemented?

I try to call the D2client.0X4ABE0(OFFSET), but get a empty store

[Lywzc]

How does the implementation of Uber Diablo and Uber Tristram compare to PlugY. I think I can only enable one, so I wonder if one is better than the other.

[devurandom]

@qwertyue you could ask the open source guys how they did it. Its more rewarding to code from scratch without looking at something else and without asking for help, anyway that's how I did it.

@Lywzc its about the same I guess. I don't know cause I never played that in PlugY. And its not code from plugY its started with villageidiots assembly code ported from 1.10 to 1.13d. then got rewrote into cpp.

are we still able to edit the DifficultyLevels.txt and enable -direct -txt with this? or how would i go about it? (making gambling a bit more beneficial)

Known Issues
4) Ubers are weak. Caused by broken chains, & wrong params in Monstats. Use the fixed
txt files for 1.13c. recomile all the txt to bin files, and update Patch_D2.mpq.
see \TXT\FixedTxt.txt.

has this already been done somewhere? whats the point of weak ubers? (have only played ubers years ago on battlenet)

Hello, I'm quite new here can anyone help? is there any way to get the purple mana orb working with animations?
I've managed to get the life and mana orbs working, I've somewhat ported over D2 Resurrected orbs over to classic.

Code: Select all

data\global\ui\PANEL\LifeOrb.dc6
data\global\ui\PANEL\LifeOrbPoi.dc6
data\global\ui\PANEL\ManaOrb.dc6

Am I missing a file here or it just isn't possible?

In D2 there is no file ManaOrb.dc6 but for change mana orb you need make files for each class:
AmaOrb.dc6
AssOrb.dc6
BarOrb.dc6
DruOrb.dc6
NecOrb.dc6
SorOrb.dc6
PalOrb.dc6

You can try to rename your ManaOrb.dc6 for one class on your choise or rename it in every file name to change for all.

That's the thing, I'm aware that it doesn't exist in D2, but the BaseMod readme says it allows for it, you can change it via the BaseMod.ini, having "Class=1" allows this, meanwhile "Class=2" enabled allows for multiple dc6 for different classes (which btw, I don't really need rn)

Anyways, this still doesn't quite answer my question , is there is a way to get the Mana Orb turning purple on Player State while animated? similar on how (hlthmana.dc6) works, that being, just Animated? I'm assuming it isn't a feature implemented yet?

Well, I have the same wish as yours, but it seems to me there is no way to implement. Currently you have to disable animated orbs to enable purple mana orb, and that's what I did in my mod. You can't combine them.

quick question im modding 1.1.3c and i cant play my mod correctly with the data file it doesnt load base mod mpq unless i use d2patch.mpq


any ideas

[UnclWish]

Any plans to adapting mod for DII Resurrected?

[Texalic]

@maxmage

I think that is ok, you need to use d2patch.mpq because basemod.mpq only contains some things only related to stash, inventory, cube and merc as I know.

@UnclWish

This mod has CE, that will not happen for D2R for sure.

[UnclWish]

@UnclWish

Why? D2R lets play in offline. So CE can be used for offline playing.

No. It's semi-offline. You still have to start the game from the launcher and it will connect to the battlenet services. Some people couldn't even play with their offline chars after launch. So BaseMod will not happen in d2r

Allready exists emulators for batle.net servers. F.e. zloemu.
They lets play D2R offline without battle.bet launcher at all. So this is not a problem.
