Hey Sking,

 

Thanks for the update. Does that mean I should give up on the shaders for the Lost (bug introduced in 1.02) ever being fixed?

[Sking]

Hey Achilles,

 

Can you send me a forum link? I'll check it out.

Sure thing.

There were a couple of threads, but I think this one got the most traction. This post has some before and after pictures which I hope drive the point home.

 

I appreciate you taking the time to look at this

Would it be possible to incluce the german translation mod as official translation?

Many bugs are fixed and the mod has more translated strings than the original translation because usually all new strings of a patch are untranslated...

I wonder when we can all expect the patch.

It's written in the post you quoted.

EDIT: please ignore this. False alarm.

First: Hunting Bows when on the back have an arrow knocked and are set high on the back so it looks completely off. Looks like this is specific to female Pale Elves.

 

Second: Occasionally and for no reason I can ascertain, I get a yellow circle around my character (like the engagement or range circle) when running around out of combat.

 

I have validated my install and am still having these oddities.

 

Also I think I have found a solution to the clipped sound bytes. Sometimes when verifying your install after it the first portion of the clip is silent, performing another validation afterword will fix it.

(bug) hi, coordinated attacks does not seem to work with my palladin (pallegina): the accuracy of other members is not changed although they all attack the same target..

[Boeroer]

It only works for ONE ally of the paladin, not for all. If you test it again with the paladin and one single other party member you will see that it works perfectly well. You can see that only in the combat log (look up the hit rolls), not on the character sheet.

OH Than youvery much! its much less interesting then haha. i guess it is the same for weapons with "marking" then (like st garam's pistol)?

[Boeroer]

Yes, it's basically the same thing. But both stack with everything else, which makes a paladin with Coordinated Attacks who also wears a marking weapon interesting. Things that stack with everything can be quite powerful.

 

For example: A Darcozzi Paladin with Inspiring Exhortation (+10 ACC fo a single ally, also stacks with everything), Coordinated Attacks and a marking weapon can mark a dragon for a fighter with Disciplined Barrage and a single handed stunning weapon (like Cladhaliath). The fighter will get a ACC bonus of +70 and +12 (one handed) = +82, easily stunning the dragon after he used his initial attack for a Knockdown. Dragons can become easy prey with this combo.

 

You can take this even further: add a priest with Inspiring Radiance and Devotions of the Faithful and the fighter could have +112 ACC. Then add a chanter with the Blackwarden's Breastplate and the "Slay the Beast" chant and your fighter will have +147 ACC against dragons... so, about 250 to 260 ACC at lvl 16 I'd say.

Started a new play through today, and noticed I'm hearing audio popping/crackling during some portions of Caldara's dialog. Is this a known bug?
