Topic: Unprecedented Crisis now on RHDN

[Grimoire LD]

You make a good point, now that I think about it. I recall actually changing it from that to Damage, Immobilizing Status for Combat Boost and that seemed to make it work much more efficiently.

[Pinkpuff]

Setting the damage flag does seem to increase the chance a little, though still not as much as I would like. Oh well, it will have to do I guess. I will finish my current playthrough, and if nothing goes horribly, horribly wrong, I will then upload this version to RHDN as Version 2.0.

[Pinkpuff]

And Version 2 is up!

[Grimoire LD]

I apologize for not being able to finish my playthrough before you put up Version 2, things have been a bit more hectic around here than I anticipated.

[Pinkpuff]

It's all good! Seems to be fine so far. The only complaints I see yet are people who patched the wrong ROM version.

I just watched a speedrunner lose his save file entirely on a hardlock at Lugae (as in, it completely deleted the save file.) We're not entirely sure what's causing it.

That was me, to explain the situation better, I know that the Aegis shield caused a softlock at Golbez right after. Kain did have the shield on in the fight. Twitch doesn't have the video saved yet so I can't check the exact details of the fight, though he had already attacked me a few times, just not been healed by Lugae yet. If you need any more details on the fight or what equipment they had, I'll tell you what I remember or wait for Twitch to save the video.

Not that it helps much now, nor does it explain the crash, but when ffiv crashes, it's not uncommon to lose the save in slot 1. Save in slot 2, 3 or 4 to be on the safe side.

[Pinkpuff]

Lugae never heals you in this. Let me know when the recording is up and where to go to see it and I'll see if I can come up with some possibilities. Right now I've never heard of anything like this, sheild or no shield, so I have no idea.

That said, there is a 2.1 update in the RHDN submission queue that fixes the Aegis shield softlock. It just removes KO immunity from the shield.

A group of FF4 Speedrunners are going to be racing this tonight around 9PM EST on Twitch.  Tentatively it is AznBlusuazn (me), Fathlo23, and RotomPoison.  Thanks so much for this mod!

[Pinkpuff]

Just watched the recording. Glad you guys are enjoying it. Version 2.1 is up and there's at least one more update in the works that will add a special treat for beating the game with solo Cecil.

Bug - Post Calbrena/Golbez battle, I casted Exit with Porom and ended up in a weird location north of Dwarf Castle.  See around 3:33:20 - http://www.twitch.tv/aznblusuazn/v/11353699

[Pinkpuff]

Part of that cutscene puts you on the overworld (underworld) as an airship. Casting Exit takes you to the last location you were on the overworld, in this case, the location of the plot scene. I guess the easiest fix would be to disable Exit in the Dwarf Castle. Thanks for reporting this.

I've picked up Tellah after losing the twins and I feel like I've made a huge mistake. Does his MP growth ever improve? He's been gaining 1 MP per level.

[Pinkpuff]

Yup. In fact it will eventually overtake even the other main mages.
