[Maps] Solitude Ruins

[akindain]

Hello all, I would like to present my first mod for Torchlight! 



http://www.runicgamesfansite.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=854

Solitude Ruins - this is the first of a long list of things o plan on adding but they will all revolve around this new 'Hub" city.

To start off I wanted to thank all of the people that made the guides and videos that got me to understand TorchED.

To start this mod all you need to do is go to the Torchlight graveyard and talk to the 'mysterious merchant' and buy the scroll for 1 gold ( will be changed in future ).  It will transport you to Solitude and there you can do most things just like in the normal town but with a few changes and additions.

Changes:
fishing hole = should be able to get all types. ( WIP but should work )
npc's = they are the same as the ones normal town but renamed them and plan on making personalized spawnclasses for each and plans to add hatch quests to them are in the works
hatch quest npc = plans to add my own quest versions to fit my planned plot ( right now its the same as the one in torchlight )

Additions:
Portal system = adds 7 portals each going to an area of solitude island ( plans to add main quest variants to them soon)


Current Version = 1.2
You will need to have the following 2 mods installed to make this work 
[url="http://www.runicgamesfansite.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=359"]Town Props Pack[/url]
[url="http://www.runicgamesfansite.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=340"]Cliffside[/url]

Comments, questions, requests for help always welcome!

o.O, this looks awesome dude, nice job there. Im afraid i am a bit scared of install it, since i already have A LOT of mods installed. Do u know if this mod have potential conflict issues?

[akindain]

i had issues with merchant mod and that may be an issue with version 1 but in version 1.1 got them figured out and fixed so far it has no conflicts with the mods im using which are

always identified
bee swarm
clifside prop set
town prop set
respec potion mod
merchant pack

will upload version 1.1 in a day or two working on a few quests atm

and the ONLY major thing is when you want to leave solitude after getting the main quest i have set up make sure its a 2 way portal otherwise game will freeze cause it wants to give the quest again when you scroll back in

EDIT: nvm that was reading the updat changes, they made it so can have 50 waypoints now!
if you doget this wait till v1.1 in a few days

V1.1 changelog

--added stairs to get to the 2 new areas
--7 NPC's added: 5 are for ppl with MerchantPack, Custom Hatch NPC, 1 stash chest Guard

Thx!, i will try it soon, lets hope it works ok for me! (i mean nowadays its hard to me to add new mods without messing up something else between more than 30 mods installed... ._.)

[akindain]

any chance you could list them or pm me a list and ill see if i can make this as compatable as i can for you and others with that many mods? lol

[akindain]

version 1.2 will have the following added
-- New random based dungeon: Ashen Keep - 20 floors with quests and cinematics
-- a re-configured main quest: part 1 complete, working on part 2 now will have 4 parts - atm has 7 objectives for the quest
-- 20 new quest items added for more options in the vanilla find quests - not including the ones needed for the above reasons
