Sorry. I don't really check up on the DMS versions anymore. I have it updated to DFDC. I will try and get this fixed though. Sorry for the issue.

For some reason, every time I try to click launch campaign, it just brings me back to the main menu. Is this a common problem? What do I have to do to fix it?

okay, thanks for the report. I'll look into it. That was the end of it though so you haven't missed anything.

I'm stuck at where the Fallen has risen betraying the insect queen. And now I cannot move, and nothing is happening.

I really liked the 1st one, but this one seems like it was written by a different person. I'm sorry, but you went way off the rails in this chapter. It seems like it was written by a young angry kid. It was not fun to read and this is an RPG, right?

hellfire is still only doing 10...just finished didnt see that ending coming about to goto part 3

You're welcome!

really enjoying story thanks for quick response

No her weapon was working properly before so it wasn't intentional. Shasta is fixed now. I also have Hellblast fixed. You don't play your character in this one because it is intended to be seen from Ray's perspective and he has amnesia. He is possessed and doesn't understand much of anything and the Fallen intends to keep him in the dark as it works its schemes. The chapter is to build up the relationship of Ray and the Fallen. Chapter 3 you go back to your character to save him.

I liked the first part. It had weaknesses, but had a nice story and nicely done surroundings. But THIS part is badly written, has disappearing stairs when you use them ('cause they're marked as doors...), a whole lot of typos even I as a German can find everywhere AND the enemies always pop up instead of just being there. Truly disappointing. Perhaps the 3rd part can redeem this one.

hellblast says does 20 damage a turn-only seeing 10 each turn

also just decked with her. she get the fincial info before clicking on anything IE: you click the node. it gives choice for 2 things but before clicking anything you get info recieved message.

I just started part 2 a few comments:
I really liked part 1 although I don't understand the transition from part 1 to part 2...um do I get to play my char again? guess we find out later.
BUG REPORT: took the 1st side quest help the stranded lady-when you fight the ghouls she has a rifle. the only attack she gets with the rifle is the decker mark target ability so if you try and "shoot" more then once you take drain damage. I'm doubting this was intentional?

(spoiler) Truly horrible. I'm baffled by how this could have been written by the same person as Darkness Falls 1 of 3. It's riddled with typos and homonym errors. At one point I was in a room for several minutes whereupon two enemies teleported into the center of the room and attacked me. Many NPCs are just named "new actor". At the end of the Small Poks side quest there are two instances of the same NPC rather than the player and the NPC. And the writing, oh my god, the writing... A woman describes having her baby murdered in front of her eyes. She decides to get revenge on him by, amongst other things, playing small pranks on him. ?!? She also fakes evidence against him despite having overwhelming legitimate evidence against him.

Wonderful :> Thanks for yet another timely fix, Mole~

That was a weird one. This one rarely ever has bugs in it. It is working again though. Thank you for your patience. Oh, and FYI I have tested to see that part 3 starts normally. At this time it does.

I'm working on it

Got the same problem as Lycras and Sonour

same here, the 2nd part seems to be broken

can't start a new game :( shows a dark screen with a char in the middle, but without being able to do anything but return to the main menu when pressing escape

Is this campaign compatible with Tracker's Street Samurai Catalog? If not, it should be ~ the available gear in DMS barely covers the karma level available, so imported characters from DMS will need more advanced gear to work towards.

I just ran through it and it worked fine. Is the exit you are trying to click in the same elevator you started in?

~ Bug problem~ SPOILERS:
in chapter 2 I enter Shastas' apartment, pick up her gear, and pick up and hide the camera; I then get attacked by 2 goons as I leave her room. I killed both goons and try to leave the level, I can see white exit door sysmbol but I cannot click on it???? help?

Part 2 - as my review was being blocked by the 1k character limit:

One pet peeve that's not really relevant to the bugs noticed so far: Why would a corporation leave a painting of a nude person in their housing facilities? Seems a bit hypocritical in the way the quest resolved itself imo. Other than personal reservations, I get why you put it there - Shadowrun Returns is not exactly a PG universe (although a disclaimer in the UGC description would be handy).

Besides all that, great story - looking forward to seeing how it wraps up when I get to part 3.

So far, my issues are the following -

I've noticed that, while playing as Small Poks persona, the IC's would make no effort to engage the character (unless you were right on top of them). I've also noticed that several encounters worked the same way earlier on in the UGC. There's also a scene where when I go to "feed" the Lonestars are running from me rather than engaging me.

At least one spelling error I've noticed so far - "Valueable" should be "Valuable" (from the side quest for Monez), and "tieing" should be "tying" (when the demon mentioning his activities to Ray's wife - or somewhere there-around).

This story is absolutely amazing! Definitely one of the better UGCs out there. Bonus points for adding a vampire to the streets. Until that point I had completely forgotten that they are prone to walking around in the old Genesis game.

There are a few little nitpicky things that need to be "cleaned up." For example, conversations should be "turned off" when completed, so that the player isn't repeating them from the beginning. Chalk it up to surreality of the astral plane.

As was previously mentioned, I was disappointed not to get to play my own character, but the story more than made up for it. I've become quite fond of Ray.

Thank you!

Nice one! At first I was kind of disappointed that I could not play my char but the story won me over :)

Thanks!

Per-she-ate ya
Also great job on an entertaining series

Thanks for the bug report. I have just updated it so it should be working properly now.

In the side mission at the beginning when ruining the wage slaves personal reputation at the blue oyster it says talk to jasmin. I do that and nothing happens tried talking to everyone in the bar as well.

Sorry about that Nuada. Seems if something breaks it always tends to be with Flier in that section in this chapter. It has been fixed again.

After killing the Silent P Boss, I can talk to both Flier and the Gang but it does not log that I have done so nor will it allow me to use the exit at the back stairwell though the pointer indicates that is where I need to go. Am I missing something or is this a glitch?

i wish you could edit comments :P Had various bugs but not anything game breaking. Also some mispelled words here and there.

Great second chapter. I was surprised at the beggiing with the change of main character but it was very good. vampire fight was tough and nice. The story is quite dark. I guess the title is not for show. On to the third part.

No feelings hurt. I made this chapter thinking of the old toxic shaman run books only this time you play the toxic instead of fighting it.

Dont spoil yourself ;), Sorry I didn`t mean to hurt your feelings, That vampire was piece of cake ;) And even Cogg is far from impossible to eliminate. I just seem to miss good old times :)
And sometimes I had hard day just finished that turns me into a growler. Forget it :)

I've not played ADnD so I can't really comment on that part. Your main character will be awarded with karma at the beginning of chapter 3 and Cogg doesn't have to be fought. You can either run or take out the rigger controlling him placing him in passive mode.I'm guessing the boss fight you are referring to is the optional vampire on the street. He only activates if you leave the sidewalk and he can be beat by keeping area effect spells on him.

Still a good horror show, well, a few things I personaly dont like...I can get over with playing different character than my own, even while gaining Karma now feels useless to me. Much worse feeling I have with the game looks less and less as Shadowrun and more and more as some ADnD shit. There was reason for IP/AP limit in the original game, and when I see some characters have it almost doubled, IDN if I like it. Also...single boss fight is much less won by good tactics, its like all hurling bullets/most effective spells on single targer just hoping his HPs run out soon enought. I am now fighting Cogg and it leaves bad taste in my mouth...somehow. just TBH. maybe multiple enemies and some well done tactical part would be better that one chimp runninng around the battlefield all by himself affecting 30+DMG with bare hands cca 6 times a round

very cool, thanks! now on to part three....

Nevermind. I found the issue. Somehow a trigger was deleted. I'm not sure how that happened. I haven't been in the content pack in quite a while. It should work fine now.

Is this from the roof top or in the same room as Lord Torgo?

keep freezing up after i fight the boss troll's two goons. i get the mission assigned "get to the chopper" and the games freezes what looks like half way to a loading screen. i can interact with the interface buttons, but can't make my character move or anything on screen. not sure if it is anything out beloved author can fix or not:) cool story line, hope i get a chance to finish it:)

I have edited her. Let me know if you have any further problems. She is working fine for me.

3rd playthrough i found i didnt trigger Fliers dialog when i entered the upstairs the first 2 automaticaly gave me the mission accomplished when i came in from the back stairs. Still wasnt able to get Flier to leave cell.

Im stuck at the gangboss, Flier is still in her cell and never leaves tried 2 play throughs same thing.

Chapter 3 has just been released. Sorry for the delay. Steam hasn't been allowing me to publish it.

@fritzcoyote- My apologies. I had said I should have part three out by now. I had a friend pass away this week so I haven't worked on this like I had originally intended. It will be up soon though. I don't think it is as long as the first 2, but it will have multiple endings depending on choices made in game.

It's cool. That should be fixed now.
