Howdy Ivioin, check your messages!

Hi Anarchistrex, can you give me some more info?

Thanks Shino_one! I hope you enjoy it! Please leave feedback if you did!

Haha, well thank you very much, Mrsambo84! You give me too much credit, but I appreciate the thought nonetheless! This project exists because I had the same dream. This is a labor of love, very, very long in the imagining. I'm afraid it isn't released yet, but it is still coming. I was traveling for the last several months, so I am just now getting back to it, and there are a lot of obstacles still to overcome.

Howdy Ashan! I'm afraid this isn't released yet. Life has thrown a lot of complications at me, and I am not finished with the update and expansion yet. I'm still working on it, but I'm a one-man band, so the process is slow. Thank you for your interest, and stay tuned!

Thank you very much for the kind words!

Howdy PKVex! Yes, it is indeed! Stay tuned for a news update soon-ish!

Hello taldobill! Yes, the mod is still very much alive! I'm afraid the last year has been rough for the Greys, but we are starting to catch our breath, and I am getting back to work on this project. I hope to post another developer's journal in the next week or so and let folks know where I am. I'd love to have your help if you're still interested! You can contact me at bentongrey AT yahoo.com.

Why, thanks for the kind words PKVex! I'm very glad that you've enjoyed it so much! Whether you're a fan who read those classic tales at the time or discovered that greatest of comic ages later, like me, it's hard to beat the glories of the Bronze Age, and that's definitely the feel I tried to capture in this mod.

Wow! This looks really amazing! I'm very much looking forward to a full version! Great work, folks!

Haha, thanks!

Thank you Hort! I was delayed by finishing my PhD, but I'll be getting back to work on the mod soon!

Howdy, I'm not quite sure what you're asking, but if you want to know about other aspects of modding the game, please visit the FF community at freedomreborn.net, where you'll find a wealth of resources, including guides on importing stuff from other games.

Thanks for dropping in and sharing your take, Ken! Great suggestions! I've added them, and a community artist actually just created the artwork for them, so the LSV are good to go (except for Spider Girl, for whom I don't have great artwork).

Thanks! Steam and GOG both have FF, and at a steal of a price too! I hope you'll follow the mod and check it out when it is done!

Thanks for the response Russell! Yeah, these guys won't necessarily all be used in the same story at the same time or anything, just all available in the mod for players to mix and match as they like. I tend to take an 'ideal world' type of approach to my roster. I'm taking the team looks and such from the Bronze Age mostly because that's my favorite era and that has my favorite (for the most part) looks for the team. However, I'm not too worried about the particular continuity at a particular moment, and I'm happy enough to mix and match the occasional detail.

Howdy MastaYoda, I am still working on it at the moment. I had to put it on hiatus as I finished my PhD, but I hope to get back to the project this summer. Currently, there isn't a public version, but I hope to have a release by the end of the summer, though we'll see. Stay tuned!

By the way, the new magic system is AMAZING! It completely transforms the gameplay and makes the game feel way more like Warhammer. I hadn't realized how much I was missing without it. I can't believe how well y'all managed to implement it!

Thanks Kevenflemming! I appreciate the advice! I had sort of figured out the "commander" work around through trial and error, but it's good to have that confirmed (and that I'm not just fooling myself, ha!).

I've determined that the CTDs are definitely replicatable with the Forest Goblins and the Chaos Dwarfs. At a certain point, the screen will stutter, then freeze, and then the game crash.

Okay, I'm an idiot. The error messages were just because I had forgotten to launch it from your custom launcher. So, ignore that. I am still getting CTDs in battle though, this time against goblin outlaws.

As a very rough guess, I'd think that the CTD has to do with a certain dwarf dying or using an ability. I can't get more precise than that, though, as the other errors prevent me from knowing exactly who is doing what, as I'm not getting any text reporting.

Howdy folks! As I've said often before, this mod is absolutely fantastic, and it just keeps getting better! Thanks for all of your hard work on this project. It really shows!

I'm currently getting errors, and they are new, though I have played the Beta earlier with this character and didn't see these. I'm not sure what changed. I double checked, and I have the patch, and I tried a new campaign, but got the same results.

Unrecognized Opcode 3805: Line Number 23 (as well as a few others, 12 and 16)
At script set_runic_items

It is constantly repeating and drowns out normal reporting text.

I'm also getting a CTD during battles with the Chaos Dwarfs. I get these occasionally, so I'm not sure if this is a new, specific bug, or just a recurring Warband bug, but it is repeatable in this one mass battle that I'm facing, so I think it might be the former.

Howdy Mr. Nygren! I don't have a mesh or skin like that, but if you were to post on FreedonReborn.net, I'm sure someone there would be able to help you track one down.

Thanks Ravensholm! I'm sorry that FF isn't working for you. If you'd like, you could head over to the FF community at freedomreborn.net, and they can probably help you get it working. I have the Steam version and Windows 10, and it works fine for me after some tweaking. First off, you might try running FF in compatibility mode for XP Service Pack 2 or 3. If that fails, the GOG version is also super cheap. I hope you can get it working!

Howdy Ravensholm, and thanks for the interest! Yes indeed, each and everyone of these characters has custom abilities, powers, fx, and art. They are completely created and comic-faithful. For example, I actually just added some new sound effects for Aquaman's telepathic attacks, using the sound from the classic cartoons. Superman has heat vision, freeze breath, super strength, and everything else you'd expect, and so on.

FFvTTR is a great game, but it is a little weaker than the first. What makes it so fantastic, though, is how easy it is to mod and how much amazing material the community has created for it. You can check out my other mods to see a few other examples, and you can visit the FF community at www.freedomreborn.net to see even more.

Howdy, I just wanted to say that I'm really glad to see that y'all are still working on this mod! I'm a modder myself, in my own small way, and I know how much work something like this can be. I can't wait to see what y'all end up with!

Howdy! I'm sorry I didn't see this sooner! I'm not sure what would be causing that. Did you install it to FFvTTR/PulpAdventures? It should work 'out of the box,' so to speak. If you're still having trouble, drop by Freedomreborn.net

The FF community will help you troubleshoot it!

I have double and triple checked, this is indeed just a false positive caused by the nature of the batch files, which copy and replace the campdef.dat (the campaign file) in order to switch between campaigns. There's nothing to worry about in the mod.

This is sounding better and better! Thanks to the entire team for all of their hard work! As others have said, take your time, and we'll be here eagerly awaiting the next release. The mod is already fantastic, but it sounds like it is going to be even more amazing!

Thanks Style! This means a lot to me!
