Fall Further - Download and Current Changelog

[Lord Kahd]

I'm not sure if this is the right area...could someone tell me how to create oases with the malakim? Adepts do not appear to have the ability, and a worker did so at random once. Control over this ability would make the Malakim even more viable.

 

[Valkrionn]

That's only in FFPlus. When Vehem incorporated parts of Malakim+, he left that one out.

Edit: Well, technically it's in Malakim+ as well, but that's basically an early version of FFPlus.

 

[Breez]

scorch has a small chance to create one. I have made 2 or 3 in my current game, but had no control over their placement.

 

[Valkrionn]

Ah yes, forgot about that..... Jean Elcard put it in when he rewrote my initial scorch code. Or wrote it from scratch, after seeing my idea..... not sure which. Either way, my code is gone even from Malakim+... His is vastly superior.

 

[JimMorrison]

Woah, so technically you could Scorch>Spring>Scorch>Spring>Scorch until you get an Oasis, if you wanted to put in the effort?

 

[Valkrionn]

Well, yes, but it's got something like a 1 in 10000 chance..... Not realistically going to happen.

 

[hbar]

What about making it work like Earth mana - any worked desert tile has a %% chance to spawn an oasis, chance increased with water (sun?) mana.

 

[Breez]

I don't agree personally. Even when I acknowledge that it is rare to see even one mine per game spawn a resource.

The oasis can now be worked, and are very powerful tiles.

 

[Vehem]

Well, yes, but it's got something like a 1 in 10000 chance..... Not realistically going to happen.

Just checked the code for that - the chances are a little higher... Might be going away in the near future as a potential exploit...

 

[dyx]

Is there an alternative download mirror for the patch? It stops right at 1% for me.

 

[VSPavlov]

How about preparing FF for FfH 2.1? Is it in plans or not?

 

[deadliver]

How about preparing FF for FfH 2.1? Is it in plans or not?

How about preparing for the next Age of Ice. FFH2 and FF are probably hand in hand developing a plan to counteract HULU.com (the other plan to destroy the world).

 

[GeoMancer]

What version of FFH2 is this compatible with? I should say the last set of patches, since there doesn't seem to be any notation for this. Sorry if I just missed it somewhere, but this inquiring mind would like to know.

 

[Valkrionn]

Right now, FfH 0.40 patch Z. It will work with the newer version, but there are apparently some bugs. Mostly art related, I believe.

 

[GeoMancer]

Hrm, I haven't been able to get it to work at all. I keep getting a storm of XML exceptions. I guess I'll have to track down the .40 download and patch Z.

Er, on that note... Is there any place that hosts the old versions of FFH2 and it's patches?

 

[Valkrionn]

I'm actually uploading them to filefront now, but it'll take a little while. I'll make a new post with the links when they're done.

 

[GeoMancer]

Thanks a lot, Mate. I had .40 earlier, but... Well, Factory resets get rid of things so well.

 

[Valkrionn]

FfH 040 - http://files.filefront.com/13812395
Patch Z - http://files.filefront.com/13812428

Should probably link to this on the first post until FF is updated.

 

[xienwolf]

Since my current work might be a large cause of delay on our next release, and I so rarely offer teasers, I'll offer this small one...

 

[Valkrionn]

Dear god. Any chance you could release those files?

Looks like some new resources there..... Is it just me or do I spy the Shrimp and Camel?
