Testplay Red Sands Extended

[Kiras]

Alright, I'm not very far yet (just finished the tutorial dungeon). You've certainly expanded Debir a lot. However, I haven't found any areas I could land on in the new lands.

Also, this may be because of the Red Sands content (and terrible translation), but the dragonslayer achivement spells "physical" incorrectly.

Will post more as I get further. I'm playing as a mage on hard mode. I tried Asmedo only before in the old red sands, and I don't really feel like it again, so I'm going to the other extreme and not using him at all in this run.

ecania be so kind to point out in your first post islands where new dungeons to be located. Thanks in advance.

Great to see that you got it running guys.

Kiras: its meant that you cant land on Debirs new lands,its balanced so you can run on Debir and get to around lvl12, and if you think Debir is large, wait until you see Scarlet.

Great you picked mage, me myself are playing warrior with asmadeo, and after 70+ fights Im done on Debir, then runned down to Blue Collar Tomb and run into Blue dragons so I popped out again and went to scarlet, I got Asmadeo to lvl 17 on Debir.

Eagerly waiting to hear more from your game Kiras.

Aristobal: Almost every island from Debir To Tekron have dungeons or linked dungeons, the underground system is very very huge and it is linked together, so actually if you want more challenge, You can play this without boat, more or less, i think u need your boat to get to shetterra and red sands , but everything else, you can use the underground network for.

But it is not only the dungeons wich is new, every singel army in the game have been looked over, and many islands are much bigger.

Spelling in dragonslayer is fixed.

and last, what did you think about the start picture of campaign, did some work on that.

I did encounters on Debir until I found the Scarlet Island map. Everything is well. I only wonder, is it intentional that I cannot sail round the Scarlet island at the northernmost point, where Archmages are posted in front of a dungeon?

The Island got to big, and i didnt Think it was a problem, discovered that a bit to late, Everything was built alredy, and if I expand Island more, file size will get very big, and I dont want that.

Having an extra rank on most skills is nice. I gave myself a ton of runes and checked out the new ranks on the skills (and the new skill) before reloading. The 4th rank is always really expensive, which I'm guessing ties in with the new trapper medal changes. I got lucky and got the trap spell for free from the tower in Debir.

So, I tried an experiment
Using the cheat code levelup to go from level 6->7 with no trapper: 1 might 5 mind 6 magic runes.

Leveling up from 6->7 with trapper 2: 7 might/12mind/13magic

Then I tried editing
params {
max1=15
max2=70
max3=170
max4=350
order=7
param=0
var=killed_by_trap

to max1 = 5, max2 = 7, max3 = 17, max4 = 35. I did that for all 4 trapper medals. That of course, immediately gave me trapper 4 (since I was past 70). Then I tried the code to levelup again from 6 -> 7 and got 14 might/17mind/21magic. Now, there's a chance that I misunderstood something about what I was editing and that affected the runes awarded, but this is somewhat in line with what I was getting without editing the files @ trapper2. Theoretically, 2 is 130% of trapper 0, and 4 is 200% of trapper 0. I have no idea how the rounding works.
That should be:
Trapper0 = 1might/5mind/6magic
Trapper2 = 1.3might/6.5mind/7.8magic
Trapper4 = 2might/10mind/12magic

But I'm actually getting
trapper0=1/5/6
trapper2 = 7/12/13
trapper4 = 14/17/21

I like the trap-chests, but there's a weird glitch with them. If you hit X instead of the check mark, the chest keeps showing, but you can never activate the trap again.

Have to look over the trap medal then, and prolly change it, about the trap chest, no clue how to change those chest if u hit x.
