Get it from here: http://www.damiansdominion.byethost7.com/diablo/files/gemstoneivbeta2.zip This should be the final test version before I release the final Gemstone IV and is for playtesting and bugfixing. NEW CUBE RECIPES: - identify scroll + normal basic weapon = normal exceptional weapon (eg, a normal - white - Short Bow will become a normal Edge Bow) - identify scroll + normal basic armour = normal exceptional armour (eg, a normal Studded Leather will become a normal Trellised Armour) Use these to create uniques and sets using the following recipes: - mana pot + normal item = unique item (eg, a Studded Leather will become Twitchthroe) - health pot + normal item = set item (eg, a Broad Sword will become Isenhart's Lightbrand) PROGRESS REPORT: ================ DONE: - Unique Items - Set Items - Cube Recipes - Chance Stones - Skill Changes - Preset Monster Drops (Corpsefire, Rakinishu, Bonebreaker, Coldcrow, Griswold) - Gem and Rune Effects - Socketed Throwing Weapons, Belts, Boots, Gloves, Jewelry and Charms - Rare Charms - Increased Stack Sizes - No more experience loss for NM Deaths - Enhanced Inventory/Stash/Cube sizes - Improved drop chances - Ladder-Only items/runewords enabled - Hell-difficulty leech/freeze/Static Field reductions cut - Hireling names (retained one Rogue name as a tribute to Jill & Kitsilan) - Hireling skill changes - Gambling jewels and charms - Higher quality prefixes & suffixes on magic and rare items - Runewords - Reduced no-drop chance - Custom main menu screen - Oblivion Knights have Iron Maiden restored to their curses - Boss Oblivion Knights, Fallen Shamen, Fetish Shamen, Hierophants and Unravellers now have their own kind as minions again - Diablo Clone and Uber Tristram (Hellfire Torch and Annihilus will already drop from monsters of level 85) - Experience gain increase in NM and Hell - Monster resists cap at 75% for most normal monsters DROPPED FROM GEMSTONE II: - Maxed variable stats on certain unique items BUGFIXES FROM BETA 1: - Typo fixed for item "Midas' Gilded Wreath" (item was displaying "An Evil Force") - Item upgrade recipes using ID scrolls now work (this bug was carried over from Gemstone II)
