Unused ghosts

[dark273]

I did the most minor things and want to upload the results here, so everyone can see how the mod is right now. Remember, this isn't the final version and there is no installer yet. You have to install yourselves. Pls tell me if you find a bug or something you think should be changed or added.

Here is what is planned, ut I'm not sure if I can do everything:
add sounds for all ghosts.
change the menues
code an installer
mayby change the animations of thorne a bit(he hasn't got anyone so I used fingers')

Here the download link(Click the little download button with the arrow beside it the file u should download is named mod.zip):
www.file-upload.net/download-4234119/mod.zip.html

Here is how to install(you need bonus scenario, I'm not sure about if you need all ghosts mod too, but I think so)
-backup your Ghost Master folder
-copy the AllGhostsUK.exe into your Ghostdata folder(for example C:\Programs and Files\Empire Interactive\Ghost Master/Ghost Data)
-copy blairwisp.tga and blairwisp_b.tga into your ui folder(it's inside the GhostData folder) say yes when you get asked to overwrite
-copy english.ut8 into your text folder(It's inside the GhostData folder), again say yes when you get asked to overwrite
-Now go into ".....\GhostData\characters\Ghosts" and put the Soulscreech.bsp fom the Soulscreech folder into your Moonscream folder. Then delete the moonscream.bsp file and rename the soulscreech.bsp file to moonscream.bsp
-u do the same with theese ghosts:
-Smokin Joe replces Painter
-Azrael replaces Blairwisp
-Thorne replaces Fingers
-Now head into the ui folder again and replace:
-moonscream.tga and moonscream_b.tga with soulscreech.tga and soulscreech_b.tga
-fingers.tga and fingers_b.tga with thorne.tga and thorne_b.tga
-painter.tga and painter_b.tga with smokinjoe.tga and smokinjoe_b.tga
-Now head into the sound folder and then itno the english folder
-replace:
-sp_moonscream_4 and sp_moonscream_5 with sp_soulscreech_1 and sp_soulscreech_2
-sp_blairwisp_4 and sp_blairwisp_5 with sp_azrael_1 and sp_azrael_2
-Now start the AllGhostsUK.exe and start a new Game, u will find soulscreech, thorne, azrael and smokin joe instaed of moonscream, fingers, blairwsip and the painter.
Have Fun

Wow! Thanks for all the extra info! I've downloaded the file immediately. I don't have time to look at it right now (*sigh*) but I definitely will once I have! ;D

[dark273]

I've been working some more with my mod. I discovered, that I failed at setting smokin joe's fetters. Murder, emotional isn't the best mix of fetters, since much objects have both anyway. I wanted to set emotional, outside. I changed that now. Another thing with smokin joe is, that when u complete blair irlicht project and the 3rd act begins, U'll see a picture of the painter on the screen, that shows your nex haunters. I changed that too, now U'll see a picture of smokin joe.

Another thing is, I discoverd how to change the haunter lvl. I accidentaly changed it when I just started hex editing the file, I later discoverd, soulscreech had no lvl. When I looked in the epitah, it said "lvl: none". Then I looked into the exe file again and found out what I had done. I now changed the lvls of all unused ghosts. Here the new lvl's are:
Soulscreech=Housebroken
Azrael=diabolical(I'ts lvl 6, I changed that cause a headless horsemen is to evil to be only wild ;D)
Smokin Joe=trained
Thorne=tamed

I don't gonna upload a new File now, cause the changes aren't that big. If someone wants to know how to change haunter lvl's justpost it here, and I will explain.

One last thing, does somebody here know something about the labyrinth power, that is like a BIG Hidden Maze

[Nemesis]

The name has popped up several times, yes. Do you think it's actually usable somehow? That would be cool!

[dark273]

I looked into those unused powers, but this looks very complicated. I tried the unused hex codes, but most was just used powers with another hex code(they exist twice). The power with hex code 11 is gravestalk, its a ground power and tier 7, but it causes the game to crash. Seems like its not finished. The hex code 83 is a tier one power, named none, and it does nothing. In other words: It's completely useless. There are no more unused hex codes. It may be possible to swap the Labyrinth power with another power, it has a sound file, so mayby the developers removed the labyrinth power, cause it was a to strong power, remember it changes where all doors lead, thats a quite heavy power. I don't think I can do to much to implement it. But if I for some reason get it, It'll be smokin joe's 10th power.

Yet another thing, I've done the new Mainscreen for my mod, look here and tell me what you think about it:

I have yet another idea, to expand the mod. There are some models, that you could use for ghosts. There are:
a Cat
a Sheep
a Skeleton
a Bat
a Little boo(pretty buggy)

U could use the bat and little boo for a new legion power
Little boo won't work as ghost(it will crash if he is a ghost). I have to take a look at the bat.

Bucks animations work pretty good for the cat. The sheep has some own animations. For the skeleton You could just take some human ghost animations. I may post some pics soon

Just made a teaser, Watch here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-U4hLrEmZo
Have Fun and eyoy the vid

[Nemesis]

The menu screen is cool and your ideas are cool, but it's extremely cool to finally see the "missing ghosts" in action! Well done!

[dark273]

Thx ;D
Do you got it installed yet, (hope everything worked as it should, if u tried yet)?
I might include those new models. I espially look forward to see if I can get the bats working like the crows from scarecrow ;D

I've donwloaded it right away, but I haven't installed it yet! I'm definitely going to give it a try this weekend, though. I'm very curious!
