CD Module Changelog v2

[Fire Wraith]

CD Module 4.05c

Scripts:

 -Made an adjustment so bonuses to summoned creatures from Demonic Thrall levels will be applied correctly.

Conversations:

-The Character Model adjuster should properly allow access to all valid tattooed body parts for the character's appropriate race/gender.

-The Tailoring models will now skip those body parts, several of which were causing crashes when specific invalid parts were attempted to be displayed on nonhuman models.

Areas:

-Transitions in the Undercity (Sschindylryn) should appropriately work in both directions now.

Races:

-Half-Orcs have been changed to allow them to choose between having +2 STR/-2 INT and +2 STR/-2 CHA, rather than +2 STR -2 INT -2 CHA. New Half-Orc characters will receive this from the Subrace setter as normal. Existing Half-Orcs can request this via the LETO or Rebuild forum, and it can be adjusted in-game by DMs.

[Vincent07]

CD Module 4.05f

Scripts:

-Blinkplate: Armor AC gain has changed: AC gain is now +4 until level 10, at which point it increases to +8. This should result in less overall AC for extremely low level PCs. Also corrected the Pre-Spellcast function to properly define the spell as Abjuration.

-Song of Healing now heals for 5d8 + 1d8 per Lyricist lvl, rather than +1/lvl.

-Shield of the Archons now absorbs 1d8 + 8 spell levels, to put it on par with Spell Mantle, which is the same spell level. The persistent visual is now also the same, so it's more obvious what it is.

-Added Shield of the Archons to the Spell Mantle stacking check, so that MT's cannot stack it with Spell Mantle spells.

-Epic spells will no longer be able to be cast while Tensers is active.

-Rangers have been given a Dodge AC bonus similar to Barbarian and Druid. It activates as long as they are in AC5 or less armor and not using a shield. The increase is +2 at lvl 5 and +4 at lvl 10. This stacks with the other class Dodge bonuses up to the +10 cap.

-UMD change: Implemented Spellcraft synergy.  If you have 5+ ranks in Spellcraft, you gain a +2 synergy bonus on UMD checks to use a scroll.

-Added a missing set of brackets to part of the epic spell slot functions. Hopefully this will resolve issues with Favored Souls not getting epic spell slots.

Areas:

-Bloodhorn Depths: Center of the Mountain, Depths, and Fire Giant Stronghold area encounters have been redone.  Fire Giant Stronghold area remade entirely.  Final loot container fixed. Overall there are far less instances of dispelling casters, but the dungeon is likely more difficult, as the mobs have been beefed up somewhat.

[Vincent07]

CD Module 4.07e
This updated requires the new Haks posted on 10/1

Scripts:

- Corrected an issue within the Loot scripts that was causing them not to account for new containers.

- Errant Knight's Heroic Shield's cooldown has been corrected to not be shorter than its duration. This is to prevent stacking of the AC bonus.

- Added Green Knight to CalcBaseAttacks() so that Tensers won't bug if used with the class.

- Bugfix to Green Knight's Challenge ability. Should work now.

- Magic Circle vs Alignment has been rewritten. The spell no longer functions as a persistent aura, but instead as an AoE buff activated on any allies within range when the spell is cast. Also corrected a bug that was not tying the Fear immunity to the proper Alignment.

- Ranger's AC bonus will now function with Large or Small shields.  The bonuses have been moved deeper into the Class' level range, triggering at level 7 for +2, and level 14 for +4.

- Implemented Practised Spellcaster for Paladin and Ranger in the Caster Level and Dispel checks.

- Epic Mage Armor Scaling altered. Any base AC over 6 now grants 11 AC.

-Bladesinger's Bladesong AC bonus scaling changed.  The Int to AC modifier is now increased by 1 per 2 levels, capped at +5.  This is to bring down their maximum AC a bit due to it spiking up when they gained access to Epic Mage Armor, as Bladesinger was then one of the highest possible AC values available.

- Corrected Daze's spell script to include custom CD functions.  The DC should scale properly with PrC levels now.

- Shadowdancer's Shadow Daze's DC will now properly scale with Shadow Dancer levels and Dexterity Modifier as it should.

- Arcane Archer's Death Arrow DC will now scale. The DC is calculated as: 10 + Arcane Archer level + Dexterity Modifier.

- Keen spell script edited to allow adding it to Gloves.

- Added CEP weapons to MatchSingleHandedWeapon(), and MatchDoubleHandedWeapon()

- Devastating Critical: I am testing a NWNX override to DevCrit behavior.  As of this update, instead of dying on a failed fort save, the target will take an extra 25 points of damage from a 1 handed weapon, or 50 from a 2 handed weapon.  The damage is currently flagged as Positive Damage, in order to make it more visible as to whether it's functioning properly.  Assuming this works properly, I'll likely be making further adjustments to account for the change.

-The ILR system has been adjusted. Added Tier 6 tag. The equip and hold level requirements are now as follows:
Tier:   Equip:   Hold:
 6    --   25   --   23
 5    --   20   --   18
 4    --   15   --   13
 3    --   10   --    X

-Pawn Shop has had a 6th tier store added for levels 23+.  Store tiers now break at the following levels: 5, 9, 13, 18, & 23

Items:

-The following items have all had balance adjustments to fall in line with tier changes and the upcoming 6th tier.  If you have one of these shields or armor, please speak to an Admin.

T5 Shields:
-Buckler of the Everlasting Dawn
-Duelists Blockade
-Wall of Darkness
-Silvered Guardian
-Barricade of Endless Force
-Iron Round Shield

T5 Armor:
-Storm Armor of the Earth's Children
-The Iron Skeleton

Misc:

-Updated the Journal entry on Items and ILR to reflect the current system.

CD Module 4.07f


Scripts:

-Fixed an issue in the loot code related to old MD_treas_ tagged items. There's a chance this may result in some old chests being empty. If you notice persistently empty chests, please bug report them and I will fix them manually.

-Dev Crit:  The damage bonus has been increased to 50 for 1h, and 75 for 2h, as well as changed to Physical (bludgeoning) This damage will bypass DR.  Once again, not final changes, just trying to make it usable in the interim.

-As of this update, dagger, club, quarterstaff, and kukri should count as Monk weapons for their UBAB. Unfortunately, you cannot activate Flurry with them at this point.

-Also in testing:  As of this update, Longsword should be finessable.


-Added initial framework for VFX application, positioning, and scaling. -Courtesy of Fire Wraith

[Vincent07]
