Alpha 21 🧙 Sorcery Mod - A21.2 Stable LIVE! (v1.94)

[Stra1ghtSlay1n]

Kinda just here to report an observation/bug and ask a question. When using a custom randomly generated map, things such as the burnt trees and coal ores above ground don’t give fire essence. But I can still get the others. And has there been any update on when we would get the other elements?

is  this mod updated to 19.4

[Redarmy45]

A PET WOLF?!!!! WOW MAN!

 

Can i have/summon multiple wolves? Also is there anyway to just have this feature of the mod? i mostly play vanilla but SP is lonely as hell.A few furry friends would be awesome

[Canute]

You should check the description of the higher perk of the summoning.

I think you could have 2 or 3, and the highest level remove the time limit.

But once you use a vehicle you will outrun them and they despawn.

And maybe you allready notice self their AI isn't that clever. It is mosttimes better to spawn a new one indoors while exploring a new room then to wait for the other to find the way to you.

 

[JanoGames]

hello, couple questions,

1 is this mod compatible with 19.4 stable?

2 is this mod compatible with any other mods other than darkness falls?

 

and finally, if i install lets say undead legacy (with the launcher) how do i install this one to use with that other mod?

 

thanks!

[Canute]

You need to differ between mods and overhauls.

Mod that just add things to the vanilla gameplay shouldn't have problems with Sorcery.

But Overhaul's like DF or UL change alot of the vanilla structures and gameplay, you need a compactiblity patch version of Sorcery.

Hi, thank you for developing and maintaining great mods!

 

For new character this mod works charm, but for existing character I cannot gain spirits(mana?) so cannot cast any spells.

Is there any way to fix this?

No, it does require a new game to work correctly.

DF Compatibility Patch pending update (see edit history)

[Razehail]

While playing the new Ice Sorcery update, I receive the following error when trying to place the Ice Spellforge:

"IndexOutOfRangeException: Index was outside the bounds of the array."

 

I created the spellforge at the Sorcery Desk. I restarted the game, then attempted to place a Creative version. The same error occurs.

I am playing the mod along with Darkness Falls 3.4 on A19.4. I also have the compatibility patch installed.

 

EDIT: After the above error, the spellforge shows up after a few seconds delay. Hovering over it does present the Use command, but pressing E does nothing. I removed the compatibility patch to see if perhaps that was the issue, but it is still occurring. This was also a new game.

 

EDIT2: I removed the Darkness Falls mod, and now the error no longer occurs, and the ice spellforge appears to work properly.

This is usually caused by an Ad-Blocker. Try disabling that and/or use a different Browser to download: http://download.sorcerymod.com

[TheWolfssegen]

Hey Devrix, quick modding question, have you had any luck disabling zombie attack with buffs? I have sorcery downloaded and was trying to use the code from your ice freeze spell as an example to try it, but it seems they're ignoring all of the passive effects, and I don't know of a way to dynamically change properties. Thanks for your time.

P.S. Love the mod btw, easily one of the most ambitious ones out there.

Thanks, glad you're liking Sorcery! 🍻
I've had the best luck disabling movement and attacks of enemies using the following:
 

<effect_group name="FREEZE">
	<passive_effect name="WalkSpeed" operation="perc_set" value="0"/>
	<passive_effect name="RunSpeed" operation="perc_set" value="0"/>
	<passive_effect name="CrouchSpeed" operation="perc_set" value="0"/>
	<passive_effect name="JumpStrength" operation="perc_set" value="0"/>
	<passive_effect name="AttacksPerMinute" operation="perc_set" value="0"/>
	<passive_effect name="RoundsPerMinute" operation="perc_set" value="0"/>
	<passive_effect name="WalkSpeed" operation="base_set" value="0"/>
	<passive_effect name="RunSpeed" operation="base_set" value="0"/>
	<passive_effect name="CrouchSpeed" operation="base_set" value="0"/>
	<passive_effect name="JumpStrength" operation="base_set" value="0"/>
	<passive_effect name="AttacksPerMinute" operation="base_set" value="0"/>
	<passive_effect name="RoundsPerMinute" operation="base_set" value="0"/>
</effect_group>

Beyond that, there's not much else we can do atm to my knowledge.

[Con Agni]

Cant w8 to try it out!

[Apaseall]

Hi, thanks for the mod, even though I have yet to use it!

I am using the 7D2D Mod Launcher. Installed Darkness Falls with that. Then manually copied the Sorcery and Sorcery DF Compatibility folder into the Mods folder. The mod launcher program sees both folders, as modlets, so all seems well there.

I have leveled up past 10, but on purpose I have not activated sorcery IN game, but not using the mod initiator, the sorcery awakening book.

Now to the point of this post.

When I use the R key whilst holding a primitive bow, I only see 4 circles. Each circle is for the arrow type. I see two for sorcery, - spell types fire and ice, the other two are scrap iron and stone.

When I use the R key whilst holding an iron crossbow I see 8 circles, the two from sorcery - fire & ice, the others I presume are vanilla & DF.

Is this expected behaviour ? i.e. is it something about the primitive bow?

Yes I have a multitude of arrow types on my person when performing this test.

Basically at my stage of the game I am prevented from using better than scrap iron arrows.

I thought I would check in here first, as it might be an issue with not activating the sorcery mod yet, which might be an odd case, since I presume most downloaders of this mod would immediately initiate it, rather than not using it until a certain level is reached (bit of rp value and well DF is hard).

 

Talking of hard, and a different issue, what is with these 1000 hit point fallen? chasing me around the map? Even from level 1? They have big ranges spells that really hurt when wearing none sorcery armor. The spot me from long range, where other z'ds do not, they run even during daylight. They per-sue for a long distance. Other z'ds seem to be about 300 hp? These @%$#s seem a bit op. Is there an issue with them turning up in game too soon? ie when the player is low level? or is it that the player is expected to already be a sorcerer and that gives them some protection vs spells? Since as I say I have not activated the mod in game yet I have nothing but guesses to go on.

 

So yeah, once I again, thanks for the mod, I look forward to eventually getting round to using it :)
