Mod requests Options

[Seewead]

To all users and fans of the RJali-Mod - just so you know: After the mod had reached its version 8.x, the mod-author (Nullset) has expressed and confirmed his current intentions, of "not doing any major work" in the forseeable future, but rather to concentrate on repair/bugs/"clean up" (provided he should find the time and muse for that). Therefore it is NOT likely that he will be able to adress your / my / our mod-requests in any way. Nonetheless it is not forbidden to express our fan-wishes and proposals, of course. This thread serves as a location to bring them all together. I created it, because the various requests confusingly pile up in a lot of different threads by now.

Keep the suggestions coming, Seewead.

No, don't ask me for that. But be at ease - I know, you don't mean it.

For starters let me come back to the already mentioned:

C. (see post further above)

Buff Rjali will only occur if equip option selected; dialog option to switch Horace's buffing off (not an install option, so you still have to use some willpower - but only once at the beginning.)

I am truly grateful for these changes to come.

But since my request to switch off the "cheat"-options, I have played on with the game. And by now I have reached a point, where I see things a little differently. Here are some small thoughts:

1.
Your bags of holding are great. And they are not "cheats" in my eyes. It would be a pity to withhold them from the users of your mod.

2.
For many of Horace's services, there could be an other option than preventing them completely: If you could make these accessible only after the return from Underdark, that would already ease up things a lot. And at the same time it would not be necessary to cut off these nicely done parts of your mod in their entirety. Which would be a shame, I have to admit. I reason, that, after Underdark, many of Horace's services are not longer game-changers anymore. Wouldn't you agree? First accessibility to Horace's services in TOB would be even better.
a.
After a big chunk of the game is played, gold is really not that important anymore. Let Horace give it away then. No one will complain about it, I am sure.
b.
When some point in the game is reached, the equipment would not feel that much out of place anymore. Yes, the items would be still mighty powerful, but in relation to many other items of the game, that would be tolerable. With the exception of "Rjali's book", of course. Make that go away, please.

3.
As far as Horace can give you experience points, hit points and stat points (Strength, Dexterity and so on), there could also be an other option than cutting them off completely. These possibilities could simply be caponized in some way:
a.
For example in the way, that you can choose every option only once.
b.
Another idea has come to my mind, that I would like to suggest to you: For every woman, that is truly in love with you (RomanceActive=2), Horace gains the ability to raise one of your stats by 1 point. That way we would - at the same time - also get a little bit of an explanation for Horace's super powers. To hear more about him, even a tiny bit, would be very enjoyable and entertaining.


See ya, Seewead
