[MOD]Prism Equipment v0.92

[Shurhaian]

Hmmm. I find myself wondering if the work that would go into fixing this locally is all that difficult. I'm not a complete stranger to programming, but the language and structure used isn't familiar...

Now, at least, I have terminology that I can search for - thanks for that! If there does wind up being an update, I certainly look forward to it.

Addendum: Let me see if I'm on the right track. To accomplish that dual-recipe approach, would I: remove all references to spawnclass, and instead point the existing recipes to UNIT:Prism Whatever? And make new recipes(prism_whatever_e.dat) using two shards for the epic version?

Addendum to addendum: Well, got the basic ones working just fine by that, anyway!

okay, i am almost finished making changes to this mod to make it work in version 1.5

i also made some other changes to make it harder to get the set (money requirement replaced by time & luck)


list of main changes:
- NPC only sells the scrolls now
- Scrolls have a value of 1
- There are 3 tiers now (Added ancient tier for lvl 90+)
- The gem also has 3 tiers (unlike normal gems, these gems cant be combined, because they can be created)
- There are 3 diferend kinds of rainbow shard, one for each tier

The items are created by combining a scroll with a rainbow shard, so adding a staff scroll & a Ancient rainbow shard results in a Ancient staff
The same rule applies to the gems

Because epic and ancient shards are very rare, its possible to combine 4 shards of the same kind into 1 shard of a higher quality (4x normal shard = epic shard, 4x epic shard = ancient shard)


currently still adjusting droprates to make sure the shards are not to common but also not to rare, but i expect to release this modified version in about 2 hours (or less)

Sounds great! I approve.

Changed version for Torchlight 1.5 - Release 1

This version was not created by the original author, but created by me with permission from the original author!

Changes from last official release:
- Added tier 3 (Ancient) version of all the items
- Added Epic and Ancient versions of the gems
- Added Epic and Ancient versions of the shard
- NPC only sells scrolls
- Scrolls only cost 1 gold now
- Shards can only be found as monster drops

Notes:
- Rainbow gems cannot be combined like normal gems, because you can use shards to get all level gems
- Epic shards and Ancient shards can drop, but these are pretty rare drops compaired to normal shards

Recipes:
Rainbow Shard (10x) = Epic Rainbow Shard
Epic Rainbow Shard (5x) = Ancient Rainbow Shard

The items created are based on the scroll and shard you put in the transmuter window
So a Rainbow Shell Schematic & an Ancient Rainbow Shard create a Ancient Rainbow Shell

Delete the original version before installing this one, else it is possible for weird bugs to happen!

just released it with some last-minute changes...

i made the shards stackable, but the stack can only contain 1 shard less then is needed to upgrade the shard
(to prevent the shards from upgrading instead of giving you the item)

and it takes more shards to upgrade, 10 for tier 1 > 2, and 5 for tier 2 > 3
(it was getting annoying to get the droprates right, so i fixed it the other way around)

I really like the idea, but those stats are way too powerful for those level requirements.

No they're not I'm level 32 and Im getting those quality of items.
