Regarding Dungeon Siege Modding
Posted by Dulac on Friday, October 06, 2006 (08:58:26) (318 reads)
Dungeon Siege 2 modding can be easy or difficult depending on how much you want to mod. I have made statements Criticising the tools, but I hope I have not discouraged modders. If you like the game and have fun modding it you should do it. You can do a lot with modding Dungeon Siege 2 or Dungeon Siege, but the learning curve is tough. I hope to help make the learning curve a lot easier on anyone who wants to mod Dungeon Siege 2. I plan to write more tutorials and finish old ones I have worked on(including a video tutorial and help file that works with SE 2). However, I am very busy this semester. In the mean time if anyone is interested in learning how to create Dungeon Siege 2 mods post what you are struggling with here . I will still be around and write tutorials when I have the time even if noone posts at Siegecore, since I enjoy doing them.

Erthos Struggle Beta 1.00
Posted by Dulac on Friday, August 25, 2006 (06:46:32) (345 reads)
Pac the Mad Modder has released a beta version of Erthos Struggle! So far Pac the Mad Modder has made 12 regions for you to explore. This map features 12 main quests and 4 side quests. This is a pure map and has no ds2res files, so it will work with Dungeon Siege 2 and Broken World. There are some grammar and other corrections being worked on. He is french, but you couldn't tell with his excellent english.
Visit Pac the Mad Modder at his very nicely done website here. You can download the beta version of Erthos Struggle here. You can talk about Erthos Struggle in this thread at Siegecore. Enjoy!

More BW Modding!
Posted by Dulac on Sunday, August 06, 2006 (12:58:22) (303 reads)
Elys has just released Elys DS2BW Succubus modlet for Dungeon Siege II:Broken World a great mod! You can download her mod and get view details at her site ELYSVISTA or at Siegecore here . Enjoy! Edit: Version 6 is out and linked *Dulac
Elys has also blessed us with DS2BW All*Saves for Dungeon Siege II:Broken World v2.30 which you can get at ELYSVISTA or here at Siegecore. Just like the Dungeon Siege 2 version DS2BW All*Saves breaks the crc check allowing us to load characters when mods are removed. Thank you very much Elys! Time to mod all! Edit: Version 2 is out and linked *Dulac
Since we do not have the crc problem anymore, I have allowed permission for Auto Engage Mod (Beta) for Broken World by Lady Femme to be downloaded . I waited on it before, since I was not sure when the crc would be broken. I wouldn't want people's saves to be gone or get stuck with a mod they didn't like.

BW Modding
Posted by Dulac on Sunday, August 06, 2006 (02:41:03) (262 reads)
First two mod releases for BW by Lady Femme and pending mods which need to wait until the community breaks the poorly designed CRC check(thing that makes your save files not show up). As BW is now, without a crack for the CRC your saves would not show up for mods that alter ds2res files for the new Expansion. GPG has also stated no new editor for the Expansion pack making me quite mad, but we will be able to continue to mod and make Broken World better. Her mods are map related, so they require you to recompile the Broken World map but do not interfere with the CRC screwing your character saves over.
Broken World Camera Mod allows you to have a better camera view as it did for ds2 .
Broken World Shop Mod allows you access to more items at shops.

The Dryad Sword:
Info:
| Quote: |
The year of hardship following the second great cataclysm changed everything in Aranna. Some feel they will never recover from the disaster, and have given up hope. But the Dryads, like steel tempered in flame, have only become stronger.
Dryads used to fashion their weapons from wood, teeth, and other natural materials. Their new weapons reflect the changes in their attitudes and methods. Their swords are forged from sturdy metal and sharpened to a deadly edge. Their leaf-like shape pays homage to the Dryads’ woodland heritage, but none question their effectiveness. |

Watcher Armor:

| Quote: |
The harsh style and sharp edges of Dryad armor are an immediately visible reminder of how the Dryad race has changed since the second cataclysm. Foregoing the traditional shells and wood, Dryad smiths now make ornate, complex armor out of sturdy metals. No longer content to attack with arrows from a distance, the Dryads are ready to wade in to battle and face their foes directly.
Dryad Watcher armor is the highest quality armor the Dryads make. Warden Celia wears it because it is particularly imposing, and helps denote her rank. Its leaf-shaped decorations are deadly sharp, and its interlocked plates offer unmatched protection to agile adventurers. |

In further news a Siege Union has formed at gamespot! I would like to show some support for the Siege Union. Right now it needs more posters, but Siegecore also needs more posters . Don't be shy everyone we need activity in the community! Me, sol, and limewolf are trying to get them to host files there. You can help out too by posting here . Just 3 people do not get enough attention . I would like to support an offical site, since many ds sites have gone down . Another reason I created Siegecore. We cannot have all our easter eggs in one basket though.
