currently there is no in game console available in the vanilla game. a few of us have unlocked the console through modding the game but this won't be available to you untill 1.2 and modding support. there is always the chance that the console will be added in 1.2 but haven't hear anythign about it so don't get you hopes up. if ur interested in getting the console pre 1.2 then come chat with either me or Malard on channel #dgmodding in irc.stardock.com or visit the website

[quote]Can we have a game mode added that is 2v2v2 or 3v3v3, with new maps made for more then 2 teams?[/quote] I can answer this one: The way the game is build there is no way for there to be more than 2 teams unless a major overhaul of the LUA is done. GPG will most likely not do this since it will take a lot of editing to the dgdata.zip. so the short answer is no, this will not be added. However there are those of us in the community that are (as yo

ok, i got one: Is there a chance that the General/Assassin catigorzation will be removed as more hybrid demigods are introduced? If not: Say a mod that removed the catigorization gains more popularity than the vanilla game, would SD/GPG reconsider the catigorization then?

if we get a mod sectiona nd the SDK at the same time all we'll have half the community working on the same mod and the other half wondering how they can also start (making the same mod). there needs to be a little bit of pre-modding talks before hand so people can work efficently together. currently a few of us are trying this over IRC. anyone interested should come join us at irc.stardock.com on channel #dgmodding in a few day we'll post up a bigger explanation to

Mini Map Idea: Doodle Pen in Demigod Ideas Demigod Forums

quick idea herre: how about a feature that allowed you to "draw" on the mini map to give stratigic commands and such. specificly i'm thinking things like being able to draw arrows or circles around locations on the map which showed allies what ur talking about. how the hell would this be implimented? an idea would be for it to be a button that you hold down and then drag across the map (which would then show up in the mini map like ping). no idea if thi

SDK Question: How will converting .GR2 files work? in Demigod Demigod Forums

quick question to any dev's out there... Frogboy mentioned that granny will be needed in order to create models for the game. QUOTE: [quote] Q: Will the SDK require Granny to create new models. A: Yes. Ultimately, to get new Demigods in, the user will need Granny.[/quote] so while in pre-SDK mode i thought i'd do some digging. turns out that granny cost $12500USD per Product. QUOTE[quote]

well i'm about 50-50. i know where in the lua script to edit and can even make maps so you can only have 1 person on each team... or even 1 on one team and 5 on the other. the problem is when i try to add a new team in it tends to have fit and die on me. still in testing but i think i'm gettig pretty close. i've also got it so i can create new maps that appear in lobby, with its own name, discription and even loading screen. problem i'm having with

New Map Idea: Crown (2v2v2v2) (with Pics and .max) in Demigod Ideas Demigod Forums

been a while since i posted anything so i thought i'd demo what i've been working on for when the SDK comes out. so far i've almost got it so you can more then two teams on a map so i thought i'd start out with a map that works off that principle. Basic idea is like a lot of people have suggested a while back, with a map where 4 teams each attack each other. this map specificly works with the conflict of working with two demigods but having 3 seperate grunt paths. wi

Reply to Abillity to buy new towers. in Demigod Ideas Demigod Forums

then make the towers range less then say Sniper's Scope III (which is 6 extra yards). if an fully range upgraded tower brought just short to say 5 extra years then it means a reglus that wants to tower-pond with no worries for his own HP will have to commit 2 more skill points, but still able to do so. personaly i don't see why the tower range isn't already larger then Snipe Scope I... i don't think i've ever played a reg and not spent a mesly single point on the extra ran

Is there a chance that the concept of Generals and Assassins will be removed to make way for a more logical and non-discrimative class of "Demigod"? What was the design rational behind not rewarding killing demigod owned minions? Is SD/GPG willing to "officalize" and distribute community made maps, mods, items, demigods, and the like if they gain popularity?

[quote]The General plus their minions equals an assassin, so attempting to nerf down minions or make it so that the General needs to keep their minons next to them at all times removes any tactical gameplay or benefit of even having minions.[/quote] if this was true why are there so many builds that do not involve minions with generals. in fact having minions is ususaly just one or two builds. oak hand stand up to any assassin with either a shield or heal build with no minions i

[quote]Again, I would gain nothing by fighting Assassins if I didn't net a kill. If one gets XP from minions, it's only fair that they get XP for dealing damage to Demigods. In short, I disagree with this idea.[/quote] my counter argument for this would be that its only fair for minions to NOT give exp when assassins can have stats equal to a general plus his/her minions. from my rough calculations i think erebus can get up 5000hp (250 dps) with minions at 12000hp

[quote]Maybe they should add a toggle for EB that drains HP/Mana. When active, he has the chance to create minions, at the cost of his own life (I like HP better, goes with the whole vamp thing...). When not active, he doesnt lose anything, but he doesnt create any minions either. Lets say every minion costs 50hp at low levels, and scales up. EB can stack health with the best of them as it is, and its not like ooze is considered crap because it does the same thing (Constantly, rather then

[quote]Then just do what i suggested a page ago, have minion improving skills and items only work within x number of yards of the general. [/quote] that could work... another idea would be rewards for minion death to effect those minions that leave their general. so say a bunch of strageling monks lag behind and get eaten... gold for that. of maybe an erebus build sends a mob of minions to squish a tower on the other end of the map and u tp in to kill them... gold for that
