• Reworked Era 1 strategic equipment
  • These techs were highly undesirable, as the era didnt last long enough, the equipment was too expensive for its stats, and the tech cost progression generally meant more impactful techs were preferred
  • The following changes attempt to make Era 1 strategic gear a cost effective alternative to Era2 Iron gear (for early warfare)
  • "Advanced Alloys" now unlocks tier 1 Titanium and Glassteel Weapons, Armors, Accesories, and grants 20% cost reduction
  • "Advanced Armor" has accordingly been removed from the game (technically only hidden away, it is still in the files for backwards compatibility reasons)
  • The Brokenlords now have "Advanced Alloys" as a starting tech instead of "Advanced Armor"
  • The stats of all Era 1 strategic armor parts have been improved so that they can roughly rival Era 2 iron armor
  • The strategic and industry cost of all Era 1 strategic gear has been halved (except for Tomes and Insignias)

With these changes alone, you've pretty much fixed my final complaints about any redundancy or unenjoyability in the game. Thank you so much for all your hard work!

Hi,

maybe i found an Bug ....

have an quest .... (can you read in the screenshot - it is german - dont know the exact english translation .. maybe "majestic creature" ..)

the creatur was in the lower right area of the map on the screenshot ...

another empire (AI player) was going to here and complete the quest ...

I get the msg you see in the screenshot .... fine ... but now the game dont do anything ... music is playing ... but clicking any of the buttons on the msg doing nothing ...

Regards

Thanks so much for your tremendous work in updating this patch!

Quick question: do updates like these break current saves? Or is it simply a matter of 'yes, it's compatible, but you might not get the new features in your current game'?

As always: if the issue is reproducable, send a save

ELCP is backwards compatible, meaning that old saves typically work just fine, with some of the changes not taking effect (quest changes dont affect ongoing quests etc.).

after load the save - the same is happen ... save ->

AutoSave 79.7z

Thanks so much for your help. You've been extremely helpful! I'm also amazed that you troubleshoot people's saves. You are an endless legend :-)

Hi,

There is an annoying bug with the combat odds, they don't seem to add up to 100%. This is an older problem it seems, as it was presented here Attack success odds.

I wanted to ask if this can be corrected in a future version of ELCP ?

Thank you in advance.

Another thing I would like to share is a serious performance bug (zero FPS drop every second) that occurred to me only thrice throughout dozens of games (in both ELCP and mod free version).
I only remember that  the first time it happened when the second era rose; maybe it had something to do with wrongly drawn roads or tower bases etc.. 
In this save I have it happened after two different empires done a legendary achievment. Please, can someone load this and confirm the freeze? And tell me if you had this happened to you as well! 
P.S. I asked a friend to load it and it confirmed it.

Good day. I was given a quest "Discreet Diving" in inland waters. ELCP forbids me to build naval units here.

Yeah its a known albeit rare (and not that important) issue. I may try to fix it in future versions.

Also a known issue, and deemed non-critical. Afaik there is also a mod in the workshop that adresses it, maybe try that one out?

What you experienced (continuous periodical stutter) is a classical sign of an AI pathfinding bug. These were very common in Vanilla but I fixed most of them in ELCP. They are very hard to track down without savegames that demonstrate them, so it's good you were able to provide one. This specific instance o the issue will be fixed in the next version of elcp. (if you weant this specific save fixed now, tell me, I can provide you a beta. Know that you wont be able to play with other people who dont have this specific beta though).

Hey Community,

After a long break, I'd like to get back into Endless Legends.
I like to mod, improve my games so that it feels the most rounded.

Example:
For Endless Space 2, I use the ESG mod.

I just came across your Endless Legend Community Patch and would like to ask you if this patch alone is enough, or if it should rather be seen as a basis for further mods.
e.g. EL with friends: Cozy Winter https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1818159168

What would you recommend for me as a pure single player?
-Vanilla Endless Legend (with all DLCs)
-Endless Legend with this Patch (ELCP)
-Endless Legend with ELCP + other mods (where described above (EL with friends: Cozy Winter))

I hope you can give me some advice.

PS. Is it possible to play the game in German with this patch?

The last one is the easy question (ELCP doesn't care about your language, or DLC status, it should always work, except for some rare bugs). If you already know the fundamentals of the game, starting with ELCP is fine. Many players consider it essential, just don't expect that you can play on the same difficulty as before if you played on serious or higher back then. As for further mods: nobody can really answer that, as it is down to personal preference. Just keep in mind that besides ELCP the modding community in EL is rather underdeveloped, and many mods are not up to date which can cause issues. Small mods (like color palettes or custom maps) are typically safe though, as are some of the larger ones which explicitely support ELCP and have been updated recently. So if you do decide to add further mods right away, try to not immediatly break your game ;).

Hi.
After I installed ELCP, I tried to create new game with Auriga map and I found this error.

I hope you can help me with this problem.
Thank you

Thats a known issues for players who dont have the Inferno DLC. Until I release a fix, the current workaround is to put the file attached in this post into your Endless Legend\Public\WorldGenerator folder (overwrite the old file). WorldGeneratorSettings.xml

Dont think German is here the Problem ....

> das problem was "ich" mit der Deutsch übersetzung hatte/habe, ist das ich noch nen extra Mod nutze der kleine fehler bei der übersetzung oder bei der gramatik und unschöne "zu langer text für den dafür vorgesehen raum" stellen behebt - darum heist er auch 'Besseres Deutsch Mod' - nun gab es mit speziellen quests und ELCP "und" diesen mod game freezes.

Ob das ein fehler von ELCP und der "nicht vanilla" deutsch übersetung ist - oder ein fehler des 'Besseres Deutsch Mod' , da er schon länger nicht mehr geupdated wurde wäre das nicht unwarscheinlich.... ist etz net ganz klar, wenn du also auf der sicheren seite sein willst nutze den 'Besseres Deutsch Mod' besser nicht

Allerdings läuft bis auf dieses seltene oben ganannte problem alles andere fehlerfrei - und ich spiele ja in deutsch.

Hey,

Thanks for your ultra quick reply.
I had installed Endless Legend and your patch yesterday and just wanted to start the tutorial, unfortunately I got stuck in the loading screen (mouse and all still worked), but I could start a normal game without problems.
It stopped at the point "wait for other players".

Is that normal with the patch?

As I said, fresh installation + ELCP and in German.

Tutorial currently does not work with ELCP, sorry. Fix will be incoming soonish, until then you should play it in vanilla.
