Brigand: Oaxaca News

[p]Finally finished updating the scripts for the Chinese, Russian, and partial Spanish translations. Also fixed a couple PANAMA bugs, thanks to Jacov again. Using bogthorn leaf in PANAMA would fuck up the variable for the Fire Loa quest. Also added a line of Osito dialogue that tells you to finish Echo's pirate quest before he will join the team.[/p][p]Here is Jacov's Guide to getting your romance on in the PANAMA DLC for the 3/3 ending. There are other ways to have sex if you just want the achievement for getting laid in a stupid video game.[/p][p][/p][p]SPOILERS: [dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][p]Complete list of changes:[/p][p][/p][p]SOURCE:[/p][p]-Fixed bug where some max saves/stories checks were still at 20 instead of 30.[/p][p]-New official story order in Main Menu.[/p][p][/p][p]SCRIPTS:[/p][p]-Fixed bug on Freeway 200 script that prevented demon respawns in Ch.9.[/p][p]-Fixed minor bug with Demon Hunter and Dog's Worst Friend achievements.[/p][p]-Removed a bush in the sky over the ocean at Freeway 200 (thanks to Jacov).[/p][p]-Fixed bug where Gao would drop 2nd cyber eye when killed after moving to Pochutla (thanks to Jacov).[/p][p]-(PANAMA) Fixed bug with Bogthorn leaf mosquito immunity in PANAMA mixed with Fire Loa variable.[/p][p]-(PANAMA) Added Osito dialogue telling player to finish Echo's pirate quest before he will join.[/p][p]-(NIGHTMARE) Fixed Boris' position in Loma Larga when dismissed.[/p][p]-(CHINESE) Updated lots of stuff in the Chinese translations.[/p][p]-(RUSSIAN) Updated lots of stuff in the Russian translation.[/p][p]-Fixed some typos (thanks to Jacov).[/p][p][/p]

[p]Lots of minor dialogue inconsistencies have been fixed, thanks to Jacov on Discord, especially relating to the Boris/Gomez objectives regarding the shop deed in Loma Larga.[/p][p]Decreased Scawuen respect requirement for recruiting Boris starting Ch.6 from 60% to 40% (but you still gotta sell his shop). Also fixed Abyssal Gate ability description, some buggy Gomez dialogue when he goes back to Pochutla, and some LC dialogue after Ricardo dies.[/p][p]Also, achievements now work on GOG, thanks to Kevin04![/p][p]https://www.gog.com/en/game/brigand_gold[/p][p][/p][p]EDIT: Still need to update the Chinese and Russian translations, but I want to make sure there are no more bug reports coming in, and I need to make sure my text editor program doesn't fuck things up.[/p][p][/p][p]Complete list of changes:[/p][p][/p][p]SOURCE:[/p][p]-Fixed bug where Loavision would make all sentients disappear briefly when player was damaged.[/p][p][/p][p]SCRIPTS:[/p][p]-Fixed bug with Gomez's dialogue while he is in Pochutla (thanks to Jacov).[/p][p]-Fixed bug with Laughing Coyote's dialogue after Ricardo dies (thanks to Jacov).[/p][p]-Fixed bug with Boris not changing positions to bar after you force him to sell his shop.[/p][p]-Fixed description of Abyssal Gate spell so it no longer says "random" demon (thanks to Jacov).[/p][p]-Fixed bug where Dog's Worst Friend ability wouldn't unlock when using grenades.[/p][p]-Increased respect gained for Ghoul Refugee objectives from +5% to +8%.[/p][p]-Decreased respect required for Boris to join party from 60% to 40%.[/p][p][/p][p]RESOURCES:[/p][p]-Got achievements working on GOG (thanks to Kevin04)![/p][p]-Updated Player's Manual (Abyssal Gate).[/p][p][/p]

[p]The Blood Vision Voodoo spell now lets you see through walls if you have 50 Voodoo skill, and alcohol now recharges Meta. Stacked with booze's insanity treatment, this makes alcoholic Voodoo builds much more viable (be sure to get Chem Tolerance ability). Also, Man's Best Friend ability now boosts the Hound's Vitality from 5 to 20.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]I have received a few saves from frustrated players over the years at the exact same location: taking the Polyphonic bridge in Ch.9. Every time I play their saves, I resort to save-scumming. Getting to the bridge door is doable, but getting vaped by the Cyber Knight's L-Blaster is unfair.[/p][p]I modified the Ch.9 intro script to remove one of the Cyber Knights on the Polyphonic bridge, and replace the other one's laser weapon with a Shorty AR. This is all done with scripts, so you won't have to restart the story unless the Ch.9 intro already happened. The NIGHTMARE setup remains the same. [/p][p]Finally, I got the main menu buttons translated for both Chinese and Russian versions.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]EDIT: If you had to change settings in your video card settings, you may have to do it again. I updated the EXE one last time just to update the year. In the future I will only have to update the EXE if I add more script commands for modders.[/p][p]EDIT #2: Also, please leave a review if you haven't already.[/p][p][/p][p]Complete list of changes:[/p][p][/p][p]SCRIPTS:[/p][p]-Man's Best Friend ability now increases Hound's Vitality from 5 to 20 and fully heals it.[/p][p]-Blood Vision spell now grants Loavision if caster has 50 Voodoo skill (see through walls).[/p][p]-Alcohol now restores Meta (more with Chem Tolerance ability), to make Voodoo alcoholic builds more viable.[/p][p]-Removed one Cyber Knight from Polyphonic Bridge in Ch.9, replaced the other's laser weapon with Shorty AR.[/p][p]-(BATTLES) Player no longer takes cold damage outside in final BATTLES map if standing near cooking fire.[/p][p][/p][p]RESOURCES:[/p][p]-Updated Player's Manual (Blood Vision).[/p][p]-(CHINESE) Added Chinese main menu buttons for Chinese translation.[/p][p]-(RUSSIAN) Added Russian main menu buttons for Russian translation.[/p][p]-(STEAM) Changed "Mister Fixer" achievement to "Slingblade" (Hardware achieve).[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]VERSION 17.5B[/p][p][/p][p]SOURCE:[/p][p]-Fixed Launcher not saving plugin font type and size settings when launched (thanks to Hardwater).[/p][p]-You can now set font size to giant2 to giant6 in the INI file if it's too small on your computer.[/p][p][/p][p]STORY FILES: (requires starting a new game)[/p][p]-(CHINESE) Fixed bug with map names in main campaign and NIGHTMARE story files.[/p][p][/p]

[p]There was apparently a bug in the map names in the Chinese translations of the main campaign and NIGHTMARE. They have now been fixed, thanks to Ez Old Men Ch Localization Team.[/p][p]The bug was causing a softlock in the Shrouded Cove map in NIGHTMARE (CN). You'll have to start a new game if you want it to be fixed in the Chinese translation.[/p][p][/p][p]EDIT (Version 17.5C):[/p][p]In case the font is too small on your computer, you can now set font size to the following in the Settings.ini file (same folder as EXE): giant2, giant3, giant4, giant5, or giant6.[/p][p]Plugin font is much faster than the normal DarkBASIC font, which is why it is used for the HUD only by default. However, plugin font size is different on every computer, which is irritating. If the plugin font is tiny on your computer, you can now open Settings.ini and change it to one of the above options.[/p][p]Also fixed a pretty major bug where plugin font type and size kept getting reset by the game launcher, thanks to Hardwater.[/p]
