Pet: Zealot of Light (Download up)

[RetroFutureRodent]

Light Zealot Pet & Fish:
Transform your pet into a Zealot of Light, a reskinned Zealot champion. They're smaller than regular Zealots and Humans and lack their spells (for now), attacking only in melee. Once I can make their poison bolt spell scale to the player's level, they'll get it back.

The skin's nothing special, just fiddled with the hue in Paint.NET to make sure it didn't look like the other types of Zealot.
Pet_zealot.dat is based on the ice elemental's pet data, so it may need balancing, if she's wiped out easily by anything or not doing enough damage please feel free to tell me.

The fish should show up while fishing, but to get you started the general merchant has stocks of the 120 second transform fish.
Made to be compatible with FishMash, there are four sizes of fish: Small, medium, big, giant, with 120, 1800, 3600 and permanant transform times, respectively.
Also in-line with FishMash, you can trans five of one fish into one of the next size up.

Installing:
Copy LightZealot to
%appdata%\runic games\torchlight\mods\

If you have respecmod, imaginarypet or any other mod that alters the general store's inventory, a guide on how to make the fish appear in the merchant's inventory is included in the readme.

Known Issues:
None, but there is potential for one. I've not checked to see if the dummy Zealot used as a base for the pet version will be spawned on levels where the regular Zealots pop up, so if a "Light Zealot" shows up, let me know.

Have fun

Does this pet die perm ?

Seems to be the case so far, even with ones I have moded

If we can get confirmation that it won't, i'll jump all over this mod. Still cautious after having to delete a character from the other mod.

Trying to confirm this right now, she shouldn't perma-die, but I'd like to be sure for you guys before it buggers up your saves

:EDIT:
Ok, made the pet lvl 0, summoned 10 lvl10 Medea to beat on one and they just got it down to fleeing and kept it there. The hurtme 1000 cheat didn't kill her either. Hopefully I've done all that needs to be done to death-proof this pet already, she has the "INVINCIBLE" tag and has a custom base mob.

Good mod. I like it.

Very nice work in getting this this pet to... Well... Not die and mess up people's game. Props to you for that. I believe I'll be trying this one out shortly. One quick question though, if you've got the time. If I delete the Spawnclasses folder from your mod, that will only prevent the Zealot Fish from turning up in the general merchant's inventory, right? I'll still be able to find those fish via the fishing minigame, as per normal?

EDIT: Turns out that a short fishing trip gave a swift affirmative answer to the above question. Also, I've run through a few floors of the Palace, as well as numerous other areas in the Endless Dungeon that feature Zealots, and the Light Zealot has yet to spawn as either a normal or boss monster. In short: the mod seems pretty solid.

How hard is it to get the Perma fish? .-. I've been trying and trying refusing to advance my game. I've caught and sold sooooooo many fishies x_x

This is the only Zealot mod for me. The other ones, in their threads, said there were issues where the Zealot (or at least Zealot-like) pet might perma die. Your thread's the only one I've found (so far) that says that's not an issue ^-^

Just wanted to mention that I started using this mod today. I'm definitely enjoying it so far.
There's a particular idle animation that's accompanied by her laughing to herself -- I love it when that happens.

I don't know if you've resolved this by now, but I just thought I'd mention my incredibly cheesy way of getting the permafish almost immediately:
Just change the following line, in MERCHANT_GENERAL_INVENTORY.DAT:

Code: Select all

<STRING>UNIT:ZEALOTFISH

to

Code: Select all

<STRING>UNIT:Zealotfish_perm

And you can buy the permanent fish right off the bat.
