Skip Fade mod

Thank you for the reply.

 

Awe, oh well. I was hoping that was just an "effect" that could be turned on or off.

I don't know if there are more codexes if you find more no problem I will add them. I looked up the codexes at http://dragonage.wikia.com/wiki/The_Fade:_Lost_in_Dreams there were just "Codex Entry: The Black City" and from the cir300pt_fade.nss I know there is one more: the sloth journal entry.

 

I think pretty much every Codex Entry you can find in the Circle Tower in the Mage Origin Story -should be listed in DragonAgewiki for Mage Origin- can be found within the Sloth Fade for non-mages. Also, you get a certain amount of XP for every Codex Entry/Update found; did you take this into account for the total number of XP you bestow upon the Player if you skip the Fade?

I can imagine my comments must be driving you up the walls, but it's not my intention to drive you insane with all my questions -I merely try to contribute what I can; which isn't much, as I don't know the first thing about DA:O modding.

I am almost finished with my mod. I will probably upload it in a few hours. To come back to the xp question, I haven't included xp at all. (Maybe I will add it in the next version). I have only a vague idea how to do it but it's difficult (and I don't know if there might be a better way): I would need to kill all demons then add the xp together and calculate, with the right formula for each level, how much xp I would gain.

 

I looked at http://dragonage.wikia.com/wiki/Mage_Origin but isn't the Mage Origin just the tutorial mission, the prologue for mages? So why should I look there for codex entries? It would help me really a lot more if you could point out where to look exactly.

 

Your comments are really helpful. They often help me finding new things to add to the mod. :thanks:

I gave you some kudos.

 

Edit:

I uploaded the file http://www.dragonagenexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=816. Everything should work the only problem I know of is that no XP is added, but I will do this in the next version.

These are the Codex Entries a non-mage can come across in during his/her time in the Sloth Demon's Fade:

 

[Mind you: a Mage character will likely have these entries already provided they properly explored the Circle Tower -and the Fade during their Harrowing- in the Mage Origin Story]

 

[codeX 089: BEYOND THE VEIL: SPIRITS AND DEMONS]

[codeX 075: HIERARCHY OF THE CIRCLE]

[codeX 076: HISTORY OF THE CIRCLE]

[codeX 083: THE CARDINAL RULES OF MAGIC]

[codeX 088: THE FOUR SCHOOLS OF MAGIC: SPIRIT]

[codeX 078: THE HARROWING]

[codeX 085: THE FOUR SCHOOLS MAGIC: CREATION]

[codeX 087: THE FOUR SCHOOLS OF MAGIC: PRIMAL]

[codeX 086: THE FOUR SCHOOLS OF MAGIC: ENTROPY]

[codeX 063: THE RITE OF ANNULMENT]

[codeX 080: MALEFICARUM]

[codeX 065: THE BLACK CITY]
