Ascension 2.0.6 out; report bugs here

Recommended Posts

New bugfix version 2.0.4 is out (download here, though it's the same download link as before). Changelog:

  • Fixed a bug in DS that was leading to crashes on non-EE installs
  • Added some guards against Fallen Solars using spells on their allies
  • Tightened up the logic of Tougher Abazigal's initial cutscene
  • Final-Five Abazigal wasn't getting his spells
  • Final-Five Abazigal should use the wizard version of stoneskin, not the dragon version
  • Tougher Abazigal now uses the script and resources of the Final-Five version (can be overridden via the ini)
  • Slight refactoring of the dialogs to facilitate SCS difficulty system (no in-game effect, this is just to remove problems caused by text substitution into OR() blocks)

Edit: We're now at 2.0.6. Supplementary change-log:

  • Compatibility with Iylos and Edwin Romance
  • We now compile gpmage1.baf properly

I wanted to check slayer abilities and I've figured out that after a while being transformed you get killed. Does that mean that the character cannot stay into that form or is that a bug ?

Not a per se bug, but I got one warning on installing Ascension v2.0.4 (after ToBEx and Fixpack), so putting it out in case it is important:

 

WARNING: no effects altered on spermel.itm

override/spermel.itm copied to weidu_external/backup/ascension/0/spermel.itm, 938 bytes

Just checking I understand:

- start a ToB game

- save

- reload save

- powers are lost

?

 

Yeah, those old SoA powers that were restored.

When I begin ToB(after beating Irenicus in SoA) all lost powers are there but after saving and later reloading said save all SoA powers are gone.

More a question rather than a bug.

The usual installation order until now was Ascension -> Wheels of Prophecy -> Edwin Romance at least according to BWP because Edwin Romance has different dialog has code that accounts for WoP so it should be installed after it.

The readme in v2.0.6 has been updated and says that WoP should be installed after ascension (as always) but ER should be installed before ascension and therefore before WoP too. Will this new order pose a problem for the interaction of ER and WoP ?

Good question and I’m not sure. I think the answer is:

If you install all three, do Edwin-Ascension-WoP. Edwin only (I think) responds to that bit of WoP that replicates the “redeemable Balthazar” bit of Ascension.

if you don’t install Ascension, do WoP-Edwin.

But I’ll check.
