This port is an attempt to stay true to the original artistic intent of BerserkersPride, and as such everything has been left as close to the original release as possible.
During porting dstn:
- Added all expected hardcoded aspects
- Brought the module system in line with the latest Warband release
- Fixed all (hopefully) bugs that resulted in slowdowns/soft-locks/crashes.
- Updated the skeletons to be ragdoll compatible.
- Removed unreferenced or unused assets.
- Organized art assets to reflect the proper load order.
- Updated most materials to use Warband shaders.
- Corrected dialogs with unresolved dead ends.
I intentionally left in scripts and triggers that are less than compatible with Warband, such as the Forms OSP that looks for and expects Original M&B command keys to be used and isn't compatible with the Warband tactical options. The flavor it adds to combat would be lacking without a complete rewrite, so I felt it important to try to leave it in. Additionally, there is one obvious bug due to the changes in how spawning works where townspeople are aggressive and try to kill you, but that is just hilarious so I left it.
Additionally, I did zero rebalancing. So this mod is just as hard as the day it released in 2009. The difficulty is a reflection on the struggle and dangerousness of the world in Berserk. This isn't a musou or a shonen power fantasy. It is a world where winning is not guaranteed, and is not easy. Guts may be the 100-Man Slayer, but are you?
The darkness of the Berserk world awaits, will you have the courage to enter?
Finally!
Lol, 20 minutes after uploading I remember I had left some cheat scripts to help my testing. I pulled them out.
I've been waiting for this moment.
