[MOD] Under Siege (beta 1.1.3) - Larian Studios forums

Since, I am not getting paid by doing this and I am already staring to get enough of this mod so I would be happy to leave the beta testing for you. Everything else should be in a pretty good shape except combat difficulty and a dialog grammar and spelling issues.

I would be extremely happy if someone who is speaking English at his first language would double check the dialogs and string tables.

Also the combat difficulty will require some adjustment. So, a feedback regarding that matter is vital. The world map that you should see by pressing "M" should have a number in each location of a significant battle. That should help to identify different battles.

Known Issues:

Due to lack of information The Quest Journal isn't implemented. Although, the number of quest is low enough that there shouldn't be need for a Journal.

Red-Handed Items are not working in-game. While testing a level in the editor the Red-Handed items are working properly so, something is wrong in TriggerSetItemOwner() function.

Here's the complete script that does not make items red-handed in-game:

UnderSiege

The UnderSiege can be played as a part of the Main Campaign or as a Stand-alone Module. There is roughly about 2-5 hours of game play in the mod. Some special skills may be required to fully complete the mod. Enemy levels varies from 4 to 6 in the mod.

When playing as a Stand-alone module:
1. You need to start the Main Campaign
2. Pick up Madora and Jahan from Cyseal
3. Speak to the NPC in a front of the Major's house.
4. Speak to the "Sailor" in the docks to level up and get some starting cash.

DOWNLOAD LINK:
UnderSiege.pak

Save the package in: ..\Documents\Larian Studios\Divinity Original Sin\Mods\

Grabbed it. Will try and find some time to play tonight.

Haven't had time to play, but I took a long pass through the Keywords folder (your dialogs) and gave it a thorough once over. Found lots of little things to clean up, just instances of captilisation, spacing, consistency, readability, clarity, etc. The dialogs should be in pretty good shape now.

The changes are purely corrections for spelling, punctuation and grammar -- I haven't made any changes to your actual story-telling.

Compare side to side with your own Keyword files first if you like, or, if you trust me, just paste it straight over. I'm pretty confident it's in good shape, but there's always the chance I accidentally used an ['] instead of [&a pos;] (without the space) somewhere.

Thanks a lot, I will include them in the next release.

Now that the dialogs are in a good shape we have one thing less to worry about.

What should we do with Maribel's Diary:

It's mostly fine. Caught a few spelling and punctuation incidents and switched a few sentences/clauses around for readability and repetition.

Thanks, I'll change the text.

BTW. I got a character portrait selection to work after copying some *.dds files to ..\Divinity - Original Sin\Data\Public\Main\Assets\Textures\Icons\ from Textures.pak using LSTools. Looks like the Toolset doesn't know how to fetch the data from Textures.pak directly in this particular case.

thanks for sharing BioSpirit, didn't know that one!

This MOD has now launched in Steam as a stand-alone mod.

EDIT: Looks like I can not edit the first post to remove outdated information and links. The first post would be the best place the get the latest information.

Could you please post the MOD on this forum for us non-Steam/GoG.com users? TIA.

Please also about this mod for non-steam - a link to download

It's a bit difficult since I can't edit the first post anymore. But of course, I can upload the latest package and the old link should work again. What about NexusMods ?

thanks
it is possible to open due to the translation of texts to another language?
What program or method?

This mod crashes as soon as 2nd player joins. Can you please let me know if there's anything that can be done to fix it? Thanks.

If users are having a different version of the game or the mod then that's something that could cause a crash. But anyway, a crash is something that Larian should investigate. It would be better to display an error about what went wrong instead of letting the application to crash.

Has anyone else tested multiplayer ?

This is not the fault Larian, but your

Game updates, balance of power, intelligence, etc... Your mode still has the old data from historical version game.
Where the current mode, you must update it...
It is not enough to create it, but take care of him. I had already walked out on him, because it is outdated and can not fully function

Hi,

I am pretty new to D:OS. Currently focusing on enjoying the game and learning the mechanics.
For which, I choose this mod since it seems much more manageable than the whole game.

My question is: I am trying to do this on normal difficulty with a four character party with two chars having Lone Wolf (not suppposed to do it but......)

Am encountering Lvl 4 groups halfway through my party being level 3.

Is this mod difficult? Do I need to learn more (I think so, but just wanted a second opinion......)

I put in more effort into this.

The order of quests is quite clear (hinted at in the module).

Just wanted to know about the "area transitions".......

Also about the orc attacks. How are you supposed to go out of the town when the orcs attack?

I mananged to complete most of the things (I think) except for......

Getting past the magical barrier (not able to find Big Pearl)

Also, could someone throw some light on:
1. How the "Orc Attack" event is triggred? How are you supposed to go out of town once the doors are locked (I went via the water....that is cheating, right)

2. How it is solved.
