Hello, i would like to ask because i can't find it but how do you open forging menu?

Not sure how to edit subscribed items, but I did find a way to fix that issue. Similar to how the mod works you can make new property strings like fire weakness, copy the data from the original string but tweak the forge cost and forging applications.

For the focus of the melee/disparity you can go into the Upgrades section and tweak the melee upgrade modifiers to fit onto more items that have enough existing downgrades to grow the item. So you would add +melee capability to shield and enable stacking to achieve a similar result.

A more involved method would be to create your own unique strings (like above) and cater them categorically on items you feel should allow for melee boosting.

I think for the mod to be reasonably balanced you would need to make the forge costs additive, but I'm not sure that's a possibility with the tools provided. Maybe a script would work.

Splendid idea but there is quite the power discrepancy between melee and ranged forging potential. For ranged you can easily stack up to +20 ranged damage (possibly more) but melee items can't produce anything remotely close.

With that kind of bias you would do better using your melee heroes as ranged fighters with said items which kind of negates their role.

c'est dommage qu'il ne fonctionne plus car c’était un très bon mod :/ es ce que vous pourriez y jete un oeil si vous lisez ce message sil vous plait

can somebody mod that you make more mana and gold in stucturs

Wait I'm totally wrong it did give +2 resistance - only realised once i'd sold it and put the old armour back on - doh

You can add +1 resistance to armour twice (if you take penalties on e.g Defence), but when you put the armour on a hero it only adds 1 resistance even though it has two +1 resistances on it.

Any chance of making bonuses like this one stack so it'd add +2 resistance?

P.S Thanks for making the mod - it's great even with this minor complaint

Hey just wondering if you would be able to help out a wandering nub with some modding tips, I am trying to make a forge mod also but I can't seem to fight the right files, would you be willing to share some insites? Thanks!

Tried it and liked it as I hpoed!

I limited them to one downgrade per property for balance purpose, since it is not possible to get negative damage / negative protection beyond a certain value.

Do you think is possible to make the downgrades repeatable, like, making a weapon deal, -11 physical and +11 Frost, essentially making the hero deal pure Frost damage or whatever. At the moment some can only be chosen once so the max you can do is a -2 physical weapon.

Cool. I actually saw the need for this last night. Some simple pro/con changes might work out. I'll check it out.

I'll have to check that, it may be an engine limitation though.

You can remove the weakness perks after you choose the the positiv perks you want.
Then you can forge the item with -12/5 points, is it possible to fix that?
I want to play with friends, and i know two of them would abuse that :(

I believe it should, as this mod only adds new options and doesn't change any existing ones.

Can these two work together?

This mod's purpose is to add variety to forging by making it possible to make trade-offs while keeping it reasonable. Nothing more, nothing less.

And yes, I have done such too myself~

I think this mod is an attempt to add more points for upgrades. I think it is just simpler to load the game using cheat engine, finding the hexadecimal value for points and adding as many points to create the item you like. I have done it and created very OP items.

Comments on additional downgrades and balancing will be greatly welcomed!
