What’s new in Darkness Falls

V4.1.0 – 25.09.2022

This is it. That’s it. It’s all set! Darkness Falls V4.1.0 has been released and is now available to everyone!

COMPATIBILITY NOTES

You must make a new save if you are running  4.04! No if’s. Not at all. Without exceptions No, you cannot copy your work because of class modifications.

Enjoy!

V4.00 – 07.02.2022 

If you have been playing the DEV builds, you need to make sure that your /Mods folder is TOTALLY deleted. No exceptions. 

You will also NEED to start a new save. No exceptions. 

This will work on 20.1 (which I believe is stable at the time of this post), or 20.2 (which will be stable later according to TFP). 

There are no more client/server builds. One build works for both.

V4.01- 25.02.2022

To update, you need to make sure that your /Mods folder is TOTALLY deleted. No exceptions. A new save is very, very, very strongly recommended as your progress may be wiped. Patch notes as follows.

– Fixed localization on steel crafting saying level 50 instead of level 30. 

– Tweaked loot a little more.

– Made reload speed of laser sniper a little faster.

V4.02 – 08.04.2022

Full patch notes going from 4.01 to 4.02: https://pastebin.com/CR4rPMLP 

Download links are the usual, and manual install is recommended as per usual. Just download the mod, delete the Mods folder, replace with the new one, done. Regarding save compatibility. 

Going from 4.01 to 4.02 may have some… odd side effects. 

It is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to start a new save. In testing, no character data was wiped, but some items changed due to removing some buggy/unneeded ones. You have been warned.

V4.03 – 15.05.2022

This update includes some required tweaks so the mod will now be compatible with XBox Game Pass versions of the game. Also, this version of the mod has been tested on both 20.4 and 20.5 experimental, so you can use whichever version of the game you wish. 

Regarding save compatibility, I have tested it on my youtube save, and there was no issue going from 20.4 and V4.03, to 20.5 and V4.03A. A new save is still recommended, as per TFP guidelines, but you CAN get away with not doing it. 

Darkness Falls V4.03A 

– Added Krunch’s 8k map and required POI’s. 

– CompoPack and required rwgmixer edits added. 

– Khaine’s version of the A19 Crack-A-Book tower added. 

– Edited the small Crack-A-Book POI to swap to new bookshelves. 

– Added new pre-generated maps that included the CompoPack. (they have CP at the end instead of NoCP) 

– Scoutsmod updated to run from any folder, and compiled into the main DF DLL file. – Scoutsmod now configurable via blocks.xml (info is at the bottom of the file). 

– Darkness Falls XML updated to allow it to run from any folder (including the new mod folder).
