Re: Mytheology Pretenders 3
 

Yeah, I just noticed. I only recently got back into Dominions 3 and wanted to try this mod. Unfortunately, the link is dead. Anyone that can re-up the latest version?

Surely someone must have it! :(

Re: Mytheology Pretenders 3
 

I have a version that claims to be 3.06. I don't recall for sure if it's the proper version or not, but I downloaded it recently. Also, I made a few changes to it as the monkey king pretender was broken for me for kailasa. I didn't play around with it enough to get it fixed though. Anyway, here is my version of the mod.

Re: Mytheology Pretenders 3
 

3.06, you say? Amazing, seeing how the last update to the main post was supposedly 3.05.

Thanks, though. Going to take it out for a spin. :)

Edit: Suddenly, there's an edit-button for me. No idea how that got there. Anyway, a-ma-zing! A mod that for the most part actually doesn't look out-of-place (except for Aku). I like.

Re: Mytheology Pretenders 3
 

Yeah, that is pretty amazing. Maybe he just misnumbered it somewhere along the way, or forgot the update the post after making some minor update....

There's always an edit button when you post, but it only stays for 30 minutes.

Re: Mytheology Pretenders 3
 

Well that certainly explains things. I'm just slow. Hrmph.

Anyway, I have a question. Somewhat unrelated, but I'm doing it in the context of this mod, so.. I want to change the Great Eyes around a bit. I'm not a fan of the whole shapeshanging deal the Earth/Water and Fire/Air eyes have going on. Removing the shapechangings shouldn't be too difficult, and changing the spellboosts since they're no longer necessary.

But no matter what, I can't seem to get the Water or Air eye(s) to show up as pretenders. Obviously this is what is originally intended, since those are meant to be shapes of the Fire and Earth eyes respectively. I am missing something really obvious here and the modding manual doesn't want to help me either.

Anyone feel like grabbing a laser pointer and showing me what I'm doing wrong? :help:

Re: Mytheology Pretenders 3
 

Alright, I solved it.
Then I noticed that all the "eyes" appeared a bit "flat" on the top, instead of entirely round.

Then I noticed that none of them had a secondary "animation". This isn't really relevant, since they can't attack - but they can still cast spells, dammit!

So I threw a wrench in it. Then another one. Then I decided to merge it with some of my own mods. Suddenly, I've been stuck for hours doing a whole slew of minor stuff.

Since Psientist seems to have gone AWOL, I felt that there's no harm in sharing.

Read the top of the mytheology4.dm for a full disclaimer on my part.

Changes: Renamed, changed descriptions of and diversified all Great Eyes. Only The Earthen Eye (Earth) is now a natural shapeshifter (into The Aether Eye (Air). Added secondary images for all Great Eyes and made them "rounder". Added my own Ecclesiarch, Spider King, God-King and Sunwell pretenders. Changed the descriptions of Grim Reaper & Wraith King pretenders. Changed all instances of Cuthulu to Cthulhu, including the name of the pretender. Numerous small changes to most of Machaka.

Just thought I'd share. Smack me on the fingers in case there's any complaints.

You know, a preview image somewhere in this thread would be nice indeed.

Re: Mytheology Pretenders 3
 

I haven't used Mytheology beyond 3.05, but my bro claims that there are several monster IDs in conflict between version 3.07 of Mytheology and the Endgame Diversity mod. However, he seems reluctant to post his findings. So, I'll do it for him:

Mechanical Giant - Cytherean Priestess
Cyclops - Yggdrasil
Zmey - Gold Dragon
Snow Giant - Kong
Solar Fragment - The astral Eye

Re: Mytheology Pretenders 3
 

As my brother pointed out, there are some issues with the Mytheology III mod and the Endgame Diversity mod. As to his comment about my reluctance, I actually was checking the other summons from EDMOD to see if there were conflicts. Some of the affected summons had magic levels that might not be intended, such as the Kong from the Gather Tears spell having Water 3 when the one from Craft Snow Giant had no magic whatsoever.

Have you considered using pyg's mod combiner program (to be found in this forum)?
