>Pastebin anon here.
I'd think you'd be in favor of moving, since you wanted so badly to put the link to your discord in the pastebin when you suddenly appeared and created a new one with Omake in it, but everyone not from the discord yelled at you until you relented. Why not have your own thread where you can use whatever links you want and do as you like?

>> No.22136267

>>22136217
I will give you the discord link was a bad thing, since I was retarded and thought people hated the place for no reason since I didn't know about the data mining.
But I made the new pastebin since the old anon stopped updating it, and even though I could be proven wrong I doubt the cloned one in the OP will be updated ever either.

>>22134001

>>22136267
You also rearranged the variant list to put Omake at the top "because it's more like vanilla".
>>/jp/thread/21526101#p21531792
You quite clearly have an axe to grind. If you want to advertise Omake, create your own thread for it instead of than hamfistedly attempting to subvert these threads.
In a sane world discussion of Omake would, in fact, belong in the Elona thread, but we do not live in such a world, and Omake's adherents are not only incapable of assimilation, but even of rudimentary self-control. Segregation is the only viable solution.

>> No.22136477

>>22136313
Nah, that was just me being stupid.
I have never played an Omake variant, so I just took what random things I heard from the thread and made assumptions like it being more like vanilla.
Anons in the thread made good points about how that was wrong and plus being first made more sense since more English players play it so I fixed it.
Not to say there aren't elitist Omake and Plus players that think their mod of a freeware game is 'best'.

Honestly I should probably just bite the bullet and play a bit of oomSEST or something just so I can make a better description for what the hell the differences are. But the grind in vanilla was ass and without the acts I worry I won't have the will to 'grind for nothing'.

>> No.22136877

>>22136057
I dunno, I think it might actually (unintentionally?) be a good idea. From what I've seen when new people come to these threads they think "Elona" is just a single game. Seperate threads for Plus and Omake would be less confusing for people. And even if the anon last thread was arguing in bad faith, his argument had at least some truth to it. It's no good for Omake's strategies to be confined to some private discord somewhere where they can't be googled by new players.

>Not to say there aren't elitist Omake and Plus players that think their mod of a freeware game is 'best'.
Y'know, I don't think I've ever seen that, even once. At most there'll be that one guy rattling off dozens of random features added by Overhaul/OOMSEST and then attacking one or two flaws of Plus that were fixed by Custom-G. Weird, but I wouldn't call it "elitism", and I don't recall seeing any plusfags actually denegrate the Omake line itself, other than over the lack of publicly available information. Likewise, I can't recall any omakefags having anything bad to say about Custom/G/FU.
Mostly it's just plusfags telling omakefags to go back their discord, and omakefags acting like facebook feminists in return (OMG U MAD, LOL SO FRAGILE). THAT gets tiresome, and as far back as I can remember every argument has been started by the omakefags. Which, admittedly, makes the idea of a containment thread for Omake appealing.

>> No.22137063

>>22136988
Honestly since it always seems to be the same back and forth I just started to assume it was the same anons yelling at each other. Though I will admit the argument is annoying and accomplishes nothing.

>>22136877
Those are fair arguments, but creating another thread seems like just opening the floodgates to every omake variant of elona getting a thread and flooding the board. Though I am a bit of a pessimist and things could turn out fine.
A bigger issue for an Omake thread is that just making one won't suddenly make anons show up to write power gaming guides for it, and again the discord users aren't going to magically start using 4Chan.

If anyone here has knowledge and willingness to make some guides or just tips on how to play the Omake line of variants then we can slap them in the pastebin. If we can't even manage that then a full thread serves even less of a point than leaving it as a footnote for this thread.

>> No.22138212

You do realize that Elona itself WAS a containment thread that the janny only barely tolerates right? Before we had a slight change up in jannies, people were arguing why Elona was even given a general instead of being kicked back to /vg/.

Really good guide. One thing worth adding is that if you use a scroll of superior material on a static artifact, its enhancement value will also be rerolled based on the current dungeon depth. It's the best way for non-smithing characters to keep static artifacts competitive with dungeon items.

I don't know what kinds of enemies you tend to fight, but heavy corpses make great offerings for all gods.

I can certainly think of ways too, though.
It has zero quality control. Every single thought any dev comes up with is just thrown in regardless. And it's not fantastical content like story continuance or sidequests either. It's flavor and flare, events, or crazy obtuse grinds.

There are certainly features that are interesting. Many of them. But as a whole the line is inherently offputting.

You could have just killed the program rather than exiting properly with esc. Like hitting the window's x, hovering over it on the task bar and middle clicking the preview, or end task in task manager.

Christ this topic has literally gone on for three days straight. There is literally more of this tangentially relevant meta discussion than anything pertaining to the actual game. How long do we want to spin our wheels about how bad it is?

Should we discuss how it's terrible because it doesn't have E+C's better systems? Or maybe we should rehash the points about how it's slowpaced and badly designed? Or maybe we should reword and rephrase how 1.22 is a fundamentally flawed version of the game because the story essentially ends before the game really begins? What about repeating how utterly redundant the game gets because custom content potentially invalidates the entire game?

We get it, Omake is the worst game ever made. The general isn't going to die just because people don't post in it every day. Let it rest already.

Any suggestions on what would be good? I have a cute fairy in one because I want a non-god copy of it, but the max "breeds" it can have at a time seems to be 1. I also have a unique monster, some blue dog that makes me a few shades, but also caps out at 3. Then I have a putit. Even if I progress the 3 years, won't the breeding caps stop them from filling up?

If you could, would you give me some tips on something good to breed? Putits have been giving me charisma, but I'd like something that's useful for gene engineering, high levels, powerful allies, good stat/resistance corpses, etc. Should I just find pets that give darkness resist (like stalkers) or poison resist (like scorpions)?

you can try getting a farm too as some of the rubbish from the mobs can be turned into compost and the drydocks on ranches can be used to preserve fruits and veggies.
i'm pretty sure most lvl 1 mobs can breed fast enough but rabbits do make more sense for their valuable tails and rats have downright the best breeding power in the game.

I don't think there's anything people like that was removed, exactly, but there are a handful of annoying things that have been added.

Probably the most disliked change was the thirst system. Your character gets thirsty over time and starts losing stamina if you go a while without drinking any potions. If you drink too many you get distended and can't drink any more, though you can still throw potions at yourself. There's a pissing special action which makes you thirstier and generates a pool of urine.
The amount of gold you get from clearing dungeons got drastically reduced and lots of people didn't like that.
Reusable items with cooldowns have a new requirement where you need to sleep once before using them again.
There have been some really bizarre nerfs, like Ano's way of discouraging multiwielding was to add a hit counter that tracks how many times an enemy has been hit since their last turn. Once it gets high enough you start doing reduced damage.
Another one is that if you stand in one spot fighting for too long then the game summons a group of enemies who have an unavoidable instant kill attack.

There's a mod called Elona+ Custom G you can install on top of Elona+ Custom to undo that stuff.

Even worse about the pissing mechanic is that if you are over hydrated and take enough damage at once you or enemies piss themselves.
And you are incentivized to piss on enemies since it can induce the fury status on them. Pretty sure you can fill bottles with urine to Chuck at enemies as well.

What exactly is wrong with firearms again? Based on all the ingame math I know, the fact that lasers ignore range penalties should actually make them the best ranged weapon type.
>weapon dice doesn't matter because the damage bonus from tonfas, blue spirit/cestus, and stats will dwarf the difference in weapon dice several times over as the game goes on
>weapon pierce scales like ass because prot dice (the only thing it modifies) only go up into double digits, meaning it'll save you a couple hundred damage at best when you aught to be doing thousands, the only pierce that matters is 100% (which got patched into being impossible) and vorpal because of the prot percentage reduction is the part that actually matters on PV. Ranged weapons can have vorpal on demand via ammo.
And then of course you have the inherent benefits of special ammo's huge AoE potential, range enabling more-aggressive abuse of fury states, actual shield skill (two handed, dual wield, and martial are all completely barred from it), easier training than magic, etc.

If anything just plain vanilla melee+shield is way, way worse because you'll be doing the same-ish weapon damage but without all the benefits of range or ammo.

Lasers are the best ranged weapon, with melee shotgun a close second, only because it's not really ranged anymore. Ranged is a lot better than most give it credit.
Fixity anchor helps ranged quite a bit, with x1.5 + armor/100 to the damage multiplier in plus, and ranged is straight up the best skill set in oomsest.

However, there are downsides to ranged. You are capped at 1 extra attack instead of 3 with melee, or 3-7 with MA. Burst gives you x20 for 40 total hits, but it does 1/3 damage, or x13 effectively. That's still better than melee, but you also have limited ammo so it's more of a boss kill move. Melee also gets swarm which can give it a lot of extra attacks with the right circumstances.

Pierce only works that way in vanilla, every other version changes it so the % reduced is affected by pierce. In plus the math works out to ~3x damage with 100% pierce, you can get that with pierce ammo, but then you can't use burst and it's also limited.

The other special ammo types likewise reduce damage and only provide a small boost. You can use fusion or living weapons to get most of the benefits of magic and explosion anyway, and on melee weapons too. On demand time stop is really nice, but you can use this as a backup with any combat style.

Weapon + shield has always been the weakest build, why would you do more damage if you focus on defense? It's for people who have a hard time staying alive.

In 1.92 MA and 2h and pretty close, with 2h edging over it with a min-maxed build. Ranged would be in 3rd, but having easier boss kills.

You want to train some magic either way because buffs are a massive stat supplement and relatively easy to maintain a training schedule in (just hotkey each buff and hold it down for a few dozen turns when your spell potential gets high).

Attack magic/hexes are grind hell and because everyone just does meteor for magic endgame anyway you almost may as well just do something else for damage until you get to meteor because there's almost no actual carryover benefit from grinding the worse spells. I think Kai did get some pretty good damage out of maxed Elemental Scar Ice Bolt on a wet enemy though, or maybe that was just a Elemental Scar cold-damage weapon against a wet enemy.

On the plus side, 1.92 adds in +pierce with weapon skill. I don't know the formula, but it's probably up to +50%, since it was based on MA.

On the downside, enemy armor skill lowers pierce. It's only 1% per 40 skill, so it's an endgame concern, but your pierce will drop almost in half against capped enemies. Vorpal is immune to this, I don't know how the +pierce with skill factors in, some terms and conditions may apply.

It's strong in every version of the game. In omake it's good once you get past the early game where you can't cast anything, and outstanding once you can make and cast your own spells.

Completely incorrect; you can stack sources, but the effect is capped at a total of 2x spellpower. Where did you hear this, anyway?

Unpleasant to think that there's someone out there tricking people like you who are just trying to help others...

Also here is a funny fact about this version,because everything is already identified you can get items from the little sister quest WAY before you are supposed to as long as you already saw the enemy or NPC who has it

example,wanna get inner ehekatl frisia staff? just look at her,run away,go to the little sister dome and claim your reward,there you can duplicate the staff that you never got at all from the inner god

here for example i claimed the flayer and vice staff before i obtained them from their respective sources so i can make my leveling way easier than intended

Not him, but it's Beautify for elonaplus1.90 or whatever. Might be for 1.91, but should work on 1.90 anyway (Easy to diff 1.90 vs 1.92 to check for compatibility).

Personally I do like the form/shape of the base interface. It's much cleaner and simpler.
But I don't like the sisters replacing icons, the strong saturation of the yellow/orange/tan everywhere, the clock being changed from the previous beautiful one, the HP/MP bars being sparkly shite, and all the sprite/icon/item/etc changes. So it's a pretty hard tradeoff.
And default certainly has more charm and feels more iconic.

I've tried to penetrate this game several times and I've never managed to get past the initial stages of getting murdered in any dungeon worth exploring. What should I be doing next to progress? I think I need to be increasing my stat potentials, so I've got a pet that makes me breakfast now, and I've been giving her the ores I get from farming (the only skill I've trained so far, at about 70) so she can train cooking.

Also got some pretty bad ether mutations. If I remember correctly, the only real way to get potions to cure those is to sleep in the king's bed until you get a lucky day, then play the casino, right?

Take the hypnotism feat and use it to cheese early game fights. Since it looks like you're on elona+, strings assassin is a good alternative. With your gardening skill is so high, you might be even better off taking knowledge of magical plants instead.

Ether disease and mutations are two different things. Mutations can be cured with semi-common potions of cure mutation, ether disease needs potions of cure corruption, which are a bit harder to come by. You get one for free from the king of palmia near the start of the main quest, so you could go for that. Bless it and it'll cure three ether corruption symptoms. If you have a big stack of casino chips you could try betting five at once and then just fold if you go over 21. If you don't have a bunch then just keep waiting for the lucky day. Any bed should work, it doesn't have to be the king's, but at any rate the RNG can be very uncooperative. The lucky day +777 to luck is a huge boost, the +77 from ehekatl's statue or the +100 from blessed food don't compare at all. If it's a really serious problem and you've already used the king's PoCC then wait for nefia fever to start and hit as many low level dungeons as possible. During nefia fever more gathering spots spawn and it shouldn't take to long to gather enough casino chips to win a few PoCC without a lucky day.

Don't worry about stat potential, there's not much you can do about it for now. Try to sleep around 9 pm to guarantee a breakfast event. The only real solution to potential in elona+ is to obtain a steady supply of blessed potions of potential.

For now try doing what dungeons and town quests you can. Save up platinum to learn skills. Don't use platinum to increase potential until you have all the basic skills your character needs to function. I highly recommend picking up the riding skill as it can easily double a low level character's speed. Just buy the best horse available in Yowyn and you're good to go. Speed is the best stat in the game, being twice as fast means you're twice as good at almost everything. Later on you may or may not want to give up the riding skill to boost your own speed via AP, but that's still a ways off.

Hrm, I thought that some of the folks here had written up a translated guide for this. I don't have the files handy, so I'll just go over the general aspect of implementation. Generally if you're going to be downloading from a template then you're either going to be using the F8 implementation (this is version and custom god specific) or the .god file you place into the User folder will have a Show House implementation. Gods that don't have a show room map will generate an altar wherever you happen to be, Gods that do have a showroom map will use the map as the primary altar.

Otherwise if you're doing a manual implementation, you need to have all of the individual files set. That includes the basic information for the God (this is the general info file, the one with author, name, etc.), the information for the God's Servant (下僕), the information for the Jewel (宝物) and then the Artifact (アーティファクト), then the information for the God's form when wished for (降臨/願い). The last piece of info it normally asks for is a showroom map (This is optional last time I checked). If you look at a template this info is typically the .txt files and .bmp files. Manual implementation uses F8 as well, and this creates the .god file if you don't have one.

So technically, you could take an existing template and modify the base files to make them fit, or just copy the syntax over (anything that works for overhaul will work for SEST, though I don't remember if SEST added extra dialogue lines, but missing dialogue lines usually don't cause a problem). You'd first want to start with the base God file (most of the info should be fairly simple until you start getting into the give parts, because you're going to need to know some of the item and skill codes. Give defines what things your God accepts as offerings, bonus is skill bonus for serving the God, special power is the ability (this is typically a formula), Food bonus is blessed food and Special food bonus is for the artifact manjuu iirc.

You're going to want to get a hang of the files one by one. Find the spreadsheet that had the data values for things if you really want to get in depth with it. Otherwise, just find a template that works well for you, take a look at how the data is arranged and modify it slightly as you like (like sprites, names, and such)

>> No.22230070

>>22229578
Grab the early Da-i-thalion from the Novice Knight quest in Yowyn. These will tide you over for a while. If you're willing to grind early, go find low level Fort dungeons, which will generally spawn Blades in large amounts, you're looking for a Crimson Belt drop here. Fort and Towers also have a chance to spawn chests somewhat irregularly, so that can help slightly. Towers are there for Happy Bed farming.

If you're willing to grind further, once you have the Crimson Belt drop, every new drop then creates a Stardust, which can be used to push your gear up (early levels should be done with gold rather than the Stardust). It isn't advised to grind this too hard unless you're using map refresh (which really makes the whole thing moot), because without map refresh you tend to spend too long walking from dungeon to dungeon (and this early grind is really for the point when you can't kill Lomias reliably to farm party time quests). If you start to accumulate gold, go to the Adventure Seminar and take every single lesson until you get the Crown Point shield (this is one of the earliest guaranteed fireproof fire resistance shields available).

That's why I recommend using a downloaded template from one of the Japanese sites, Samplia is generally the easiest reference point to start from. (https://wikiwiki.jp/elonacstm/%E9%AD%94%E7%B4%A0%E3%81%AE%E3%82%B5%E3%83%B3%E3%83%97%E3%83%AA%E3%82%A2).). If you have something like notepad++, checking encoding isn't an issue. But on top of this, you should go look on the wiki for the data value table, there should be one for elona+ at the very least, and what you're looking for generally is the "range" of values.

If you're willing to actually put the work into it, this is the Japanese tutorial site, which, as one would expect, is entirely in Japanese. http://blog.livedoor.jp/blackcrow_mh/archives/77446019.html Of particular note here is that this has the table values for overhaul. (The page that I linked you to is specific to the general god file, not the other components such as servants and what, but they have guides on that as well). If you can't read Japanese, I don't know if Google translate will help out at all because they use a very casual/roleplayish approach to the guide.

The table values all use their own individual links (ctrl+f リンク:give.用識別子一覧 for the link to the give values, replace give with bonus, specialpower, etc.). The most confusing line to most newcomers trying to make a custom god is miracle0. http://blog.livedoor.jp/blackcrow_mh/%E3%82%AB%E3%82%B9%E3%82%B4%E6%8C%87%E5%8D%97%E6%9B%B8%E7%94%A8/miracle.txt is the "explanation file" for it. Again, I dunno how much Japanese you can read, and I don't know which parts you have no clue about, so I'm only going to address a part of it.

>> No.22233464

>>22231691
>>22233415
Miracle0. works off of a "line template". If we look at Samplia for example, that line template is.
miracle0. "Magic force,魔素開放,16,3,100,3006,1000,{faith} / 200 + 1 + {attb} /10,{faith} / 70 + 2 + {attb} / 5,{faith} * 3 / 150,60,{faith} / 50 + 100 + {attb} * 3"

This is 12 data slots, which from left to right is "English name, Japanese name, Related Main Ability (like Bolt Spell, Meteor, Holy Veil, Speed, Hero, etc.), Type, Stamina Cost, Target & Range, Skill Power, Dice Count, Dice Face, Damage Compensation (so the +x part from ndn + x), Element, Elemental Strength) <- This is just taken from the Japanese guide.
Out of those, the only one that isn't immediately self explanatory should be the target & range parameter, so this is the table for it.
9006:ボルト (Bolt)
2006:アロー (Arrow)
3000+(射程):ボール、射程3のボールの場合は3003 (3000 denotes the Targetting type as ball, the secondary number is the range, so 3003 means a ball spell with 3 range)
10000:メテオ (Meteor)
3000:自分が対象 (Self targetting - i.e. the ball with 0 range.)
8000:任意の方向 (Free targetting - directional)
I omitted the second instance of 2006 because I'm pretty sure it's meant to be an example.

Again, I'd recommend if you're serious about going about this, to grab each of the links and copy paste them into one document (for each of the general file's categories). If you need help with translation try Google first, and if it fails I can do it for you but I'm not too keen on translating an entire site, so copy paste sections or something that you can't get Google to decipher. (Though when it comes to specific mechanical explanations, they're pretty straightforward.)

Having a good weapon doesn't always make the man! Having a poor weapon might even be better because you will have to hit things more times, therefore training your muscle(skills)!

speaking as a player that usually doesn't get too far in the game

OOMSEST is more English friendly than OO is, and that's generally what most people care about. A lot of the additions are for mid/later game.

I was sure I remembered an english custom god guide for omake overhaul somewhere, so I went digging and found this in a text file.

Not sure how outdated it is compared to oomSEST (if someone sees something blatantly obvious let me know) but it seems to at least match up with what this anon was saying. Describes the file for the god, the gem, and gives the OO appendix values. However it does not explain the artifact or servant.
I guess it would be easy to find a guide for custom items and NPCs somewhere though. Not sure, never bothered with custom stuff.

That file should be good enough, I think you just have to copy it over vanilla 1.22 and it should work. Someone else did the intermediate steps needed.

Are there higher ranked harvest time quests? Swear when I played before there were ones with a quota over 20 that gave better rewards, but I'm only getting the 20 ones.

I think that's based on your Fame.
