I sent the fixed files to LO last week or so. If anyone else has something that should be addressed give me a heads up. Mind you, I'm not competent like miri was. ;)

So I just spent the last 3 hours trying to reinstall Demigod. Obviously (heh), I had kept all of my modding files and my collection of demigod data patches, but I had uninstalled the game a while ago to free up space. So installing it should have been straight forward. However, I had forgotten I had some old logitech camera drivers installed, which I had to uninstall for Demigod to work. Goodness that annoys me. Anyway, let's see what we can do with this old gal. Bl

Looking at the abilities Plague does 15/30 damage per tick for 30 seconds. Plague infects friendlies with 10. Plague gives an immunity if you live through it for a few minutes. Post Mortem makes you blow up if you die dealing 150 damage to friendlies within 6. Post Mortem makes you blow up if you die dealing 8 meta to everything within 3, I think this insta-gibs minions. Post Mortem lasts for 30 seconds after the last UB hit.

Pacov's thread inspired me, so I finally got around to trying out LoL. The entire continuing validity of last hitting as a viable gaming mechanic pissed me off, so I came back to check out how Demigod is doing. I saw your Demigod night, and thought why not, which brought me here. Then I reread up on the Uberfix and saw that miriyaka lost interest is finishing out the Plague fix, which got me thinking. Miriyaka's proposed solution seemed to be valid. [quote] Rig

I was recently surprised to see Gal Civ I & Demigod showing up in the Indie Gala Bundle (see http://www.indiegala.com/ ). Given Stardock's rather bad experiences with other publishers selling their games and not paying for them, I was curious if: 1. This was actually Stardock selling/getting the money for them this time. 2. Frogboy would like to comment on their strategy and plans for sales using the game bundle sites.<

I have a love/hate relationship with GPG. I love GPG, I've bought almost every GPG game and so many of them are excellent games that I've played endlessly. I hate GPG, GPG has really annoyed me with some of the outcomes of their games (SC2, DS3, Demigod support, AOE-O,etc). I've really got some strong opinions on their Demigod support (re:Uberhack). How much GPG is to blame for these outcomes isn't public knowledge and could be (and has been) debated endlessly. R

I don't want any unnecessary middlemen between me and my applications. Steam as a download client, sure, whatever, Mozilla also works pretty well. Steam as a form of DRM is unnecessary and unwanted. I've read the previous 5 pages. It's amusing that many of the ProSteam advocates become outraged that people don't want to use Steam "properly". I don't want Steam. I don't need Steam. I barely tolerate Steam. Why should I spend any time dealing with it at all? I&#3

I'm not in beta, so I won't vote in the poll. However, I'd like to put my opinion in. I should have enough "street cred" to be granted that I'll put my money (and time) where my mouth is. If FE is a good game then I would be willing to pay: $1-5 - For Multiplay - Yes - A trivial cost $10 - Multiplay - Yeah, but I'm not longer happy about it. $5-10 for Cooperative Multiplay - Yes! For me multiplay is: LAN or Internet, and making sure that I d

Your balanced QoT ideas are still crazy. [e digicons]:grin:[/e] I popped into the mods forum to look on the Uberfix todo buglist and saw a few things I could look into without Miriyaka to do the heavy lifting. However, when I tried to get Demigods up and running again it was somehow glitched so I wasn't about to start it. My install will have to be updated and what not before I'll be able to do anything, and I've been pretty busy with work (and not so interested in bugfi

The only reason I got Impulse in the first place, was that so Stardock got a bigger chunk of my retail contribution. Now that Steam is on list of distributors and Impulse has been sold to Gamestop, that's obviously not the case anymore. However, my first interest still remains, if I buy from the new SDC, will you guys get more of my cash? Also, not that my opinion matters much, I really dislike the idea of needing any online connection or verification, regardless of the features t

I used Gimp with Times New Roman ;) with a couple of layers. I've got the graphic format all setup if you want the file, or you can just tell me what you want and I can whip it up. I looked up the Soul Power Icons and they are at: C:\Program Files\Stardock Games\Demigod\bindata\textures\ui\common\abilities\icons\DGOak However, there are already 6 of them, so I'm not sure what you want. Also, did this ever get resolved: <st

[quote who="WhiteElk" reply="200" id="2918437"]One thing that keeps coming to mind... ... But I can think of none worse.

Worse choices that come to mind, in no particular order: Apple, Microsoft, Electronic Arts, Valve, Ubisoft, Ebay, Sony. Better Choices: Google, Amazon.

I like Stardock. I like to give Stardock money. I tolerated Impulse to give Stardock more money. I bought things I didn't really need to because I wanted to give Stardock more money. I don't like GameStop. I don't like that GameStop contributed so much to the Demigod launch disaster. I don't like the idea of GameStop controlling my access to my "installation disks". I'm unhappy with the situation.

Q: What are you hoping to do with Violent Siege at all levels of Uproot? A: Make it less useless. Even the fully buffed form of Uproot wasn't worth getting. That's the version with Violent Siege at all levels, plus the heal, and double damage to towers. The range of Rain of Ice is huge. It also isn't restricted in placement. There isn't a TB alive that would trade Rain of Ice for the revised version of Uproot. That is suggestive of something. He

LO you undermine your arguments by resorting to personal attacks. Is Circle of Flame or Rain of Ice fair? If they are fair, then what's wrong with giving a similar ability to the QoT which allows her to do the same type of damage and remove her current useless Uproot. To be specific, increase the duration, keep total damage constant, increase the range it can be cast from, but force it to only be cast on towers. We can call this n

Given the hullabaloo over how Poison Blood potions should work, I revoke the right to assume rational thought and action to demigod players. ;p

The crux is that people don't want the QoT to be very good. Uproot with VS at all levels wasn't overpowered. LO should probably link all the Uproot discussions so that people can get background if they are interested.

If I'm not mistaken, all banning does is prevent you from accessing the Stardock Servers for Demigods. So, to use an analogy: If you don't play nicely with others, Stardock doesn't take your toys away, they simply don't let you come over to their house to play. That seems fair to me.
