Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity Original Sin - Beta our Issues pt 2 (Update v1.0.114 - January 31st)

so schinella83 and me keep testing. we were thinking to wait till new content comes, but the new rogue class made it interessting and we hope to test it, so it works fine for the next major patch =)

This time we put numbers in front of our issues or ideas, to make answering easier

1. when creating a character, the mouseover works only on the very left on, when trying to see the details for talents - maybe clicking minus on a talent was bugging the mouseover tooltips - i was too lazy to recreate and spend all points again. Maybe next week when we are starting new MP Session ( I am playing on window mode)

2. the "picture of health" talent lets the character start with lower HP (36/43 - so i think its these 20%)

3. Information + what I think: Okay, cool! Centering on your character by clicking its portrait works fine (thats rly good!) Double-clicking on it also opens the inventory, if you click on two portraits, it opens twice the inventory - so you have to close twice the inventory to have free screen again. That also works when clicking on I when being on different characters. This allows now to drag and drop stuff from one inventory to other. (For MP I cant tell now)
Only thing is: The inventory windows appears on the same position on the screen. So you ALWAYS have to drag and drop the inventory window first on the other side of your screen to trade between characters. There is nearly no space for a whole 3rd inventory window, so maybe place 2 inv-windows next to another and then you can switch characters in the second window to organize the inventory of your party. But thats not so important.

4. Okay fire flares got now limited range. Still no information bout range, but its the standard 15m

5. Nice. Healing does now regenerate more HP - atm it feels little bit OP (3 HP/turn last patch, now 16HP), but lets wait for later game

6. Another issue we faced already last version: There is no option to change the "end turn" short key. My left hand is on the left side of the keyboard and i am used to put such keys, which I need often to make em easy to reach (i wanted to put it on space)

7. Didnt realize before: I cant heal dudes, fighting on my side
(like the legionaries when fighting the orcs in the beginning)

8. I guess getting xp when fighting is still like this: If anyone else kills an enemy (like the legionaries in the beginning or when orcs were fighting undead), the party doesnt get any xp. Thou i dont assume the NPCs want to leech the kills, i personally would like more the idea, of who deals more dmg to enemy, gets the xp

thank you for the great patch!

To change the end turn key binding. Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Divinity - Original Sin\Data\PlayerProfiles\Eoc and edit the inputconfig with the following coding:
<IE_UIEndTurn pikey="SPACE" device="DIKeyboard" filter="UI" state="pressed;released"/>

Hope this helps.

9. when infight, clicking on the portrait to center on the character would be nice too. Like I said, I play in window mode and alt tabbed to write something here in this forum. In the background the game was scrolling into a dark area. Because I had no Idea where I was with my view, I had to skip my turn, so that the game is automatically centering on the char whos next turn

edit: Okay! I just realized, clicking on portrait to center on your char doesnt work, because it only centers on the char, that wasnt the active char before. That changes what I said at point 3: Its not fully working centering on your character, you have to click on another character and on yours again to find your char. In the fight that doesnt work, because you cant switch to a character, which isnt on turn!


10. another issue I forgot to mention before. When not spending all ability turns, the arrow on the portrait is staying. I understand, that it wants to show me, that i have still points to spend, but it feels like: Hey, you got a level up! Spend all your points NOW!

thanks =) didnt test it yet, but I guess it helps

edit: welp no =/ doesnt work, still on Enter. But i will keep on trying. Yes, I restarted the client. I will try to change "UI" back to "Game;Config"

Weird because I just set it up on mine and closed out of the game and went back in and it works fine. You are doing it under the EOC Folder and not Default? And you saved it when you changed it? Asking just to cover bases.

Also I was able to heal a legionnaire during the fight if I was close enough.

EDIT: Here's my end turn section copied directly from the file:
<IE_UIEndTurn pikey="RETURN" device="DIKeyboard" filter="UI" state="pressed;released"/>
<IE_UIEndTurn pikey="NUMPAD_ENTER" device="DIKeyboard" filter="UI" state="pressed;released"/>
<IE_UIEndTurn pikey="SPACE" device="DIKeyboard" filter="UI" state="pressed;released"/>

The Home key will re-centre the camera on your character.

11. Its not possible to talk to the legonary who runs back to the bridge to find his 2 dead comrades, saying "What happened here?". At least he enters fight mode now, when I remove the witness.
12. Barrels and crates (etc.) are not closing when opening another barrel, (i had to press 4 time x to close all barrels on the harbor)
13. NPCs are not reacting when you have opened a door. They react, when they see you opening a door, but its completely normal for them, to see you coming out of a push next to a door that should be closed.
14. The NPC who was fallen in love with the charmed orc woman doesnt look to the NPC, who killed the orc, when he crys "YOU BASTARD" an making a fist to threaten. (He still looks to the position where I WAS standing)
edit: Oh yea, and the legionary missed the orc. I fell dead to floor anyway with blood all over it.

yep EOC and saved it (using editor)

I will try it later with the code of yours. Maybe the legionary was out of range (but it didnt tell me its out of range - the magic wand wasnt crossed out
gotta watch TV with fiancee now =( j/k

Edit: thx raze, home button works fine. Didnt know that, because its not in the control options.

Well I used notepad to edit. So maybe try that instead. I dunno. That seems really weird

15. Not a big deal: Newer Save Games on the top of the list is pretty standard in most of the games (especially if you make a lot of save games and DOS will be for sure one of these). But the time you saved games is written, you just have to search a little =)

loki: okay, I only found the default section in my editor using the search function. in WordPad I found the ones with UI. I'm trying this now, seems to make more sense.

16. only 2 orcs, and none of the legionaries joined the fight
after this: Shaman engaged me, didnt attack me.
I came closer to the rest of the enemies. Only human joined the fight...

In window mode, I got into dialogue with the fish thief. All the dialogue my view was scrolling in south direction. I couldnt stop it, even when mouse was in the middle of the screen. Only leaving the game screen on the north, the game scrolled to north. I dont know if I was outside of the screen with my mouse when the dialogue startet. It centered back to the characters, when I chose an answer and startet scrolling south again.

edit: Okay, same happened now when entering the mayors house and the pup up came where I can click on Accept. Cursor wasnt outside of the game screen but it scrolled north all the time.

the dialogue opened 5 times (opens every time I go into the kitchen - the cock is dead, pressed always 1 in first dialogue)

Playing atm little bit Singleplay, I figured out, I cant send a group of my team to a certain point and switch to another (not chained) character (My thief who is looting without any followers). The chained party stopped immediately and I had to wait till they arrived their target to continue with looting.

16. If Enemy died by burning, you get no XP.

17. Multiplayersession: In the Kings Crab, we were both talking (to Anna while friend was talking to duke - he meant, maybe Duke was kinda upset) - the whole tavern was attacking us. really sucks, we had to kill all, cuz didnt want to reload. We were taking stuff from upstair and under the hatch, but not on the floor lvl...

18. Multiplayer session: CTD when opened the skill book, right clicking a spell in inventory to learn it. got msg it was learned followed by CTD

19. MP: We got a "!" over Madora ALL THE TIME and cant even talk to her. kinda sucks =/ We cant even send her to kings crab. Even after reloading the game the ! is still there

20. spell earth quake: Well i fucked my own party with this spell. It isnt mentioned in description that the spell is casting AROUND the caster. Thats a pretty senseless at all, I always try to stand away from enemy or I am surrounded by friendlies (15m radius is a HUGE area..)
