Quick install question, if I am using Xtra and decide to try out Children of the Storm, can I just install it, or does Xtra need to overwrite some CoS files to make it compatible?

1. Install Children of Storm 1.8.c.

2. Install XD_MOD_CoS.

XD_MOD_CoS contains all that's needed to make Children of Storm compatible w/ LH 2.0 and XtraDeconstruct.

Warning:

XtraDeconstruct is currently compatible w/ Black Market Bazaar 2.0.

[File: Black Market Bazaar compatible with - Children of Storm - XtraDeconstruct - and friends 2.0 which was uploaded at 17:13 on 22 December 2015]

 

It shouldn't take too long to have a version compatible w/ Black Market Bazaar 2.1, but until then you need to use version 2.0.

As I'll be uploading an χD version compatible w/ BMB 2.1 soon, this is as good a time as any to report issues you might have run into.

It's nice to see that this mod is being updated constantly. I was several versions behind, and now am playing the new version.

One issue I've found is no matter what I set the options to while creating a world, and no matter what map size/layout/etc, I never have any resources near my starting cities.

It's like it flat out refuses to spawn anything near the start for the player.

I'm not sure if it's counting Shards as resources, or not.

If you can tell me a good combination of options to use for this mod, to get the resources to show up sometime, please let me know.

Because right now, resources are the rarest things in the entire game bar none.

I could have sworn this mod added the spells to make wild grain/etc spawn as well, but I don't see those as options.

Are they disabled, or are they somehow part of another mod, and I'm going crazy and confusing the two?

Because the only other mod I played besides yours was Children of Storm.

I also can't get road graphics to show up when I use Primitive roads, so it's a bit of challenge where the right tiles are.

 Edit: Oh, and if there's any files I can change to make resources spawn more reliably, let me know, because it's a bit annoying playing map after map and never getting any resources, no matter what setting I have it on.

On a medium map w/ Dense Resources, it should spawn close to 200 resources. However, resources are spawn last, after Creature Lairs, Goodie Huts/Quests, and Shards, so they are bound to run into conflicts w/ these other settings.

(Click image to enlarge, just an example of the settings interacting w/ each other)

After your post, I tweaked some numbers for the Legendary/Ludicrous Resource setting, if you want to try it, then download this file and unzip in

...\Documents\My Games\LegendaryHeroes\Mods\

Overwrite when asked and you will need to start a new game to see it in action.

 

Playing on a medium map w/ the "new" Ludicrous settings spawned over 300 resources. On a large map, depending on the other settings described above, it spawned up to 500 resources.

A beige dot should show up on each tile where there's a Primitive Road. If you would like a red dot instead:

Then download this file and unzip in

Overwrite when asked and you will need to start a new game to see it in action.

 

Unfortunately, the dots will disappear if you load a Saved Game, but you should still be able to see the Primitive Road on the Cloth Map (Shovel icons).

 (Click image to enlarge)

 

Also, the dots will become roads once you've researched Economics as they are considered Outpost Roads.

Thank you! I really love this mod a lot, and although learning to play on Normal difficulty is a tiny challenge after so many games on easy, it's a ton of fun.

 

I'll give those tweaked resource options a try.

And the Red dot will help, because the Beige one doesn't stand out. I also didn't realize they were Outpost roads. That also explains things.

I remember how helpful the Sorceror skills are, thanks for pointing out what I was missing.

That's one thing I remember. Amazing spells. High cost and cooldown for obvious reasons, , but really nice. Can't believe I forgot about that skill!

 

Edit: I just started a game on Medium, with the Ludicrious resources. Wow. THank you so much, that really helps, and it really lives up to it's name!

 Second Edit: I've noticed something a bit odd with mana costs. They seem to be a bit buggy. I cast Tireless March, and instead of taking 40 mana, it takes 80.

And now giving one of my cities the Propaganda bonus cost over 30 mana when I had the 20 for casting it.

So, can you help me figure out why a lot of spells cost a lot more mana than they should?

If you're paying twice the mana, you probably inadvertently skipped Step #2 of the installation. After having done it, you'll need to restart LH and start a New Game.

Ah. Okay. I guess I forgot that! Whoops!

And I don't mind starting over again.

 

So, what exactly causes the double cost?

Many Core XML files (including CoreSpells) are rewritten in the Mods folder. If you don't do Step #2, you end w/ SpellResourceCost in both the Core folder and the Mods folder, meaning you will pay twice the mana.

I am curious, how exactly did you tweak the formula for the spawning of resources?

Because the difference is indeed massive.

 Now currently, I got sucked back into Terraria, but I'm still playing this mod.

I think I'm going to try Frost Giants again.

They are extremely powerful.

And all you need is a commander with army accuracy, and they no longer have their penalty to hit Assassins and Warriors.

Wow. I didn't think I had been on this forum that long.

That's what I get for joining all the way back in Beta 3b for the original Galactic Civilizations.

Well, kind of the original GalCiv

 

Think you mean the original Windows GalCiv, Think Brad had the OS/2 GalCiv back in like 1993 or 1994!

Some errors to report....

Rat city spell appears in tactical rather than strategic.

Mirror demons don't appear to be reflecting damage properly when they are from your faction.

Stategic sorcerer city spell regarding apprentices appears to be missing even if sorcerer is stationed in city with sorcerer's tower.

First xp book you can research sometimes allows you to use it repeatedly rather than disappearing as it should.

Some items and spells are missing icon pictures.

Thanks for your efforts on this mod, and God bless.

Hey,

Thanks for taking the time to post issues you are having.

I'll have a look at these two when i get a chance.

 

EDIT: Mirror Elementals are working fine for me, in that they reflect 100% of the damage absorbed, meaning they can't reflect more damage than their remaining HP; if they receive 14 DMG, but only have 3 HP left, then they reflect 3 DMG. I'll change the text from "DMG received = DMG to attacker" to "DMG absorbed = DMG to attacker"

EDIT: Recruit Sorcerer's Apprentice is actually a Sovereign only spell. I'll put a note about it in the next version.

This is an installation problem. You need to download and install Black Market Bazaar 2.1 (Hereafter, BMB 2.1) file:

Black Market Bazaar compatible with - Children of Storm - XtraDeconstruct - and friends

You will need to restart FELH and start a new game for the changes to take effect.

5. Some items and spells are missing icon pictures.

This is an installation problem. Depending on which files you've downloaded, it will either be fixed by downloading BMB 2.1, as mentioned above, or it will be fixed by downloading and installing BMB 2.1, Champion Bonanza compatible with Children of Storm (CB 1.3), and Children of Storm 1.8.c. (CoS 1.8.c)

To further assist you I would need to know which (main + optional) files you've downloaded and installed.

You will need to restart FELH and start a new game for the changes to take effect.

Am I the only one not seeing the OP anymore? Somewhat annoying if a new forum feature.

 

Unrelated, but with last week changes to Steam User Reviews feature (Removing, among others, Refunded/Gifted/FreeWeekend reviews from the overall score), FELH is now sporting 79% rating, probably less than 5 positive ratings away from the illusive Very Positive (80%+).
