combat overhaul.
qrd of the additions/changes:
>three damage types (blunt, slashing, and piercing)
>good chunk of weapons (ex: javelins, halberds, greatswords, shortswords...)
most weapons from the mod function off of a "last look direction = swing type" (for example with greatswords looking up a bit will give you an overhead bash)
>three layers of armor (skin, middle, and outer) along with eight slots per layer.
>new armors for the new slots.
>reworks to weapon progression/balance and entity health. most notably, base damage doesnt increase with metal tier but your damage tier does.
for what it is its a very high quality mod, i've used it on a few heavily modded servers myself and its never caused any issues.
any complaints about complexity are purely a skill issue.

>>2244399
Oh, yeah I love CO but for nog you'd need something that messes with jsons only.

>>2244402
I think the base mod could work but adding the extended armory is probably a no

>>2244402
Yes I know it, its a good mod, and it reminds me of one of my favorite combat/weapon mods from mc, medieval fantasy. I like pretty much everything about it but I've done testing on it. Its one of the more unstable mods. I've also gotten the gun mod to crash a server before. Worst mod is still that one big cooking mod. It crashed servers more times than I can count. I think nog will likely get a combat json mod one day, that's one major goal.

This just has me wondering how feasible the suggestion to do it like dorf fort is with everything being pregenned. There's gotta be a way to generate a map of the whole world without the filesize being huge. Maybe the pregen could be like a template or something the game can reference as to what gets generated and only loads the chunk when the player is close.

>>2244664
I hope by "high-quality addition" they mean "big enough to warrant it's own update" and not "marginally more polished than a mod you can download". Although knowing this team I'd be surprised if it's even the latter. That being said I am glad they spent 300 man-hours and not 300 woman-hours, so there's a sliver of hope.

I'm thinking about the planning for the next try-hard town like sahara. What would make a more entertaining, unclaimed slum/anarchy district? I can post some pictures I'm going to be leaning towards the first (pic rel) A mountain valley on a coast, not far from the planned city. There would be a port where new anons arrive. The port area could be the slum zone. Walls around it, with an area controlled by the city that overlooks the slums. Or it could have no wall and become almost a pirate shanty town

>>2244701
I'll take pictures later but the other proposals would be
>mountains over the city. The mountains remain unclaimed, maybe a sort of dwarf or mountain bandit theme would come from it.
>Farmland/forest right outside the city, going for a peasant theme, farming and trading it with city anons for tools
>desolate gravel wasteland. Make them struggle, just pure anarchy

Learned from my my mistakes and a lot of past towns. I'm one of the only anons autistic enough to start a larp town. I'm mostly just building infrastructure then I plan to larp in a church. Larp works better when you have a few towns, conflicts, trade, and culture. Souf in og wouldn't be souf without norf and middul. I think if I just kickstart a comfy town with culture and autism that it'll be good enough to larp. If some anons want to larp in a trading village in a temperate climate, we can work with everyone else to inspire stuff in their towns. Trust the process.

>>2244824
Comfy maxxing I see. My only thing is I want to create a sahara-like atmosphere but use mensfiel tactics partnered with some militant HOA inspiration from byz to have a higher density of builds and focus on cheap builds with nice chisel work.

What's a better starting class for a newbie, hunter or malefactor?

>>2245051
Malefactor is best class for someone new or doing singleplayer (better than commoner). The rest of the classes are situational. In a server, clockmaker used to be meta, now it's the hunter and blackguard depending on playstyle.

>>2245066
>>2245051
Malefactor falls off hard in cities. Excels at farming with a speed buff, no hunger debuff, and no ore debuff. So great if you're new or want to farm, not the best with experience. You can change your class with .charsel usually once per save.

That has nothing to do with pregen and reducing file size though

>>2245356
it has everythign to do with pregen. not file size, that's a different problem

>>2245382
Pregenerating the entire world is pointless if you can't reduce the file size

>>2245390
what? you don't pregenerate anything to save on file size, you pregenerate to get global effects like rivers, weather patterns, rainfall maps, tectonic plates, etc.

>>2245402
Right, and if people want those things without mods you will have to find a way to reduce the size of the world generated so you don't wind up with dozens of terabytes using the current sizes.

>>2245412
This guy gets it. Yes, it's possible to pregen an entire VS world. However, doing that would take fucking ages and the file size would be huge to the point of uselessness. If there is a way to get the pregen world features into a small file size that could be read by the game to generate what goes where, then I'm willing to bet Tyrone would be interested.
But nobody says how to do this.

Vanilla VS worldgen looks like dogshit though. What the fuck is up with the random, one off mountains and weird spiky ridges? Is it really too much to ask for sensible mountain ranges and valleys?

anyone played around on the unstable version? if so how useful are the waterwheel?

>>2246000
'ron said he didn't want realistic world gen. So the spiky mountains, or floating land masses are normal for the story he wants to create.

>>2246070
How is it possible for one man to have two bad ideas for every good one?

>>2245977
ok to be fair what he is replying to is an awful worldgen mod that doesnt even have good rivers its just bezier curves carved into hexagonal basins

>>2245964
I'm a retard who actually buys books because I like physical books

>>2246097
Sure, but without anything else to go off it sounds like he's willing to eschew hydrological terrain. So while we may get rivers and they may conform nicely to existing worldgen, they will exist emancipated from cause and effect (no headwaters, no tributaries, no dendritic branching, no deltas, floodplains, canyons etc). That might be reading into it too much, but realistically without something resembling real mountains or elevated terrain I can't see rivers being terribly interesting. It's a shame because this is the one game where people would really welcome realistic worldgen, albeit scaled-down. But rone, despite making a system that takes into account a climate gradient, local rainfall and rock strata, really doesn't want that, and apparently isn't even willing to include it as an option.

>>2246171
yeah probably

>>2246171
i doubt it

>>2246171
Hytale chads keep winning.

>>2246171
Even without the generation being advanced, I think they're interesting from a gameplay perspective that'd make large continents way more interesting and traversible, especially in multiplayer. They're effectively massive highways, and if they provide hydro power that's another reason for settlements to be built on them. If they impacted local soil hydration that'd be cool too even without much geologic accuracy.

I can't remember exactly, but there was a short-ish-lived /vm/ server with Sneezer's rivers, and they were built around naturally by players. Even just for LARP it's cool.

Holy FUCK I have finally finished making my iron armor. Since I had enough for chain armor, I thought fuck it, might as well go for scale, so I did. I am never making anything other than brigandine by hand ever again, that was so aids.

Speaking of plate its pretty neat how the higher tier plate armors have MUCH better durability compared to lower tiers.
Copper Brigandine is 900 durability while steel is 2600
Copper Plate is 500 while steel plate is 5500

>>2244676
DF doesn't pregen everything, just the general topography, that's then used to generate local terrain when you visit it. You know where the river is, and how wide it is, but the water tiles don't exist unless you're looking at them.

>>2246580
See now that's what I was looking for.
Now the real question is, is it possible to generate a map of the worlds topology first and then use that map as a reference when generating chunks within the VS engine?

Outside of pregenning terrain, I'm also of the opinion that terrain should generate oceans and land separate so that we get better defined seas and continents. There's a mod that does this and I'm trying it out. No opinion yet. Oceans should also get more content but that goes without saying. It would be neat to explore a sunken ruin with a diving bell or something.

>>2246171
God imagine creating a farming village in a river delta. You'd have high fert for days. Bonus points if flooding becomes a thing.
Actually, would more natural disasters be good for the game? Life after agriculture is pretty easy.

>>2246616
VS does effectively do this with all its various heatmaps. I believe it's entirely procedural, but the heatmaps for ore, rainfall, forestation, etc. are all at the resolution of individual chunks, not blocks. So 'ronism is capable of using a lower resolution map, which, given that each chunk is 32^3 (but effectively 32^2 because 'ron barely uses the 3D aspect lmao) it'd be usable pregenerated even for a 1mil x 1mil world, and since the heatmaps are essentially scale-free and independent there's no real reason why they couldn't all be pre-generated instead of generated on-demand

I'm willing to be the first smelts happened by accident when they were fucking around with pottery. Ancient people would fire pottery in a kiln and burn it with different things to get various colors. Considering they probably got clay from a riverbed (which frequently has iron-rich sediment), they probably got a kiln hot enough at one point to notice they created some metal. Once they figured out that it was the heavier grains in the riversand, they would have sifted these intentionally and piled them in a kiln, and later bloomery.

>>2247982
Rone should just add the instant gib from immersivecorpsedrop to animals that fall sufficiently far and leave all other kills alone. Seeing an animal died from a fall doesn't teach me anything other than rone has no clue how to spawn in creatures logically.

Iron was actually the oldest worked metal. It just wasn't as useful as copper or bronze since without proper temperatures its brittle and dull.

>>2248007
Is it? I remember in my humanities courses they stated copper working goes back the 10th milennia BC, pretty much the dawn of the neolithic.

>>2248081
There is no real evidence for any wide spread practice, but meteoric iron was pretty widely worked. Something to remember is iron is the most common metal in the universe, and is quite widely available on earths surface, nearly any bog, swamp, river etc will have iron deposits or iron bacteria.

>>2248111
There's no real evidence because it likely wasn't worked. Iron is heavy, most of it is underground, and actual useful surface deposits are uncommon. I'm unaware of any examples of bog iron being utilized prior to the introduction of iron smelting, primarily because it exists in an impure form. That's why all the examples of iron working prior to smelting only happened with meteoric sources.

Copper meanwhile occurs in deposits of pure concentrations on the surface. Any ancient peoples walking around would have been able to stumble across copper that they could immediately use and was soft to work.

I know it's just a silly nog pic, but it has got me ponderin' something fierce about what the game would be like if we had proper elevation and terrain scale. For example, in Just Cause 2, the amazing island of Panau has multiple different biomes and sub-biomes that are blended pretty damn seamlessly, no doubt thanks at least in-part to the sheer size of the map (1035 square km). The tropical island has a "snow biome" in the form of the Berawan Besar Mountains at the center main island, the highest of which rises approximately 1,890 meters, or 6200 ft. above sea level. For reference, Mt. Hood, a stratovolcano in northwestern Oregon that typically has glaciers on it year-round (at least on the upper slopes) is approximately 3,400 meters, or 11,250 ft. above sea level. Point being, while Berawan Besar mountains certainly take some acceptable liberties with reality due to not actually being that elevated but still retaining a snowpack in what's basically Malay, 6,200ft. is still very large, and so it definitely succeeds at instilling players with a sense of scale.

Vintage Story does not do this. Mountains at their highest are only a few hundred meters, and they're typically less like mountains and more like noisy plateaus that are just there to breakup the landscape. But if they were to scale, if they were thousands of meters in height, imagine how that would affect gameplay, most notable serb play. You could have communities in highlands with completely different needs and resources than communties in the lowlands. Different fauna, flora, growing seasons. What's more is that having terrain that imposing would massively restrict travel. Too wide to (easily) tunnel through, too tall to climb. Settlements and roadways would reflect this, as would boundaries.

Unfortunately it will take years until VS can support anywhere near this level of scale, if ever, probably in the form of a mod. Rone just has different priorities.

>>2248621
I wish I could say the lore had the depth that you would expect from the amount of time taken ignoring world generation or gameplay.

Despite that hate it gets, I like, or at least don't mind the lore. But it's just that, lore, fluff; it doesn't have any actual impact on gameplay beyond providing a hand-wavey explanation for the technomagic shit, ruins, currency and baddies. The two ancillary benefits it does have are that it reinforces the medieval setting and it gives modders a bit of a framework with which to design content that otherwise wouldn't fit (the latter can also be a downside, for example, why does the new airship mod need temporal gears for the construction? Would it not be whimsical enough otherwise?). Even so, the lore does, in my opinion, give the game a stronger sense of identity. I have a friend who wasn't enjoying the game but was really taken by it once he did the resonance archives, and I imagine many ordinary players have similar experiences, so for that reason I think the fluff that rone came up with is remarkable.
