okay, how do I start Vecna? I bought the ring, but all the locations seems pointless empty. Is there a walktrhough around ?

No there probably aren't any walkthrough, only my private BWP walkthrough.

 

Start Vecna by talking to Messenger to the Gods at Council of Six Building (AR1002) in Government. Then go to Bridge and then go to Twisted Rune (AR1008).  Use Ring of Recall you got from Shangalar and others when you killed them. Then you are teleported to Twisted Rune Laboratory Complex and Vecna starts.

Thanks Micbaldur <3. Definitely not my genre of mod.

using the "Do not extract paths" option on the Advanced tab in WinRAR. Also,
make sure the "Destination path" on the General tab terminates in /content or
/restore after vecna (there are no subfolders beyond that).

For WinZip, make sure the "Use folder names" box is *unselected*. You should
end up with a bunch of .bam files and no subfolders in your "content" and/or
restore folders. Rerun this installer once you've extracted all content.

Have you extracted the files to the given folder ? You need to do that. You should be able to find the files from... here nad there. The Shadows_harpy_frostgiant.zip seems to be, but not the other two that I linked you to.

Sorry, I missed the part about needing to install IA...and IA fails to install on my system, too. I'll try again, and report the inevitable failure here.

What codepage (#3.2) does your computer use ? Cause it only works with the 1252 -- or whatever the %&¤# it was.

Hellow! How it goes? Is it fully playable now?

Russian translation for Vecna but with no TP2 change. I saw that TP2 file also need to be cnaged due non-standard codepage (non-1252). But I don't know how.

Can anyone add this translation to the mod please? A year has passed, but the translation has not been included.

[jastey]

Just so nobody feels ignored: The mods released under "Miscellaneous Mods" are not hosted by SHS, officially. The forum is/was a platform where anyone could updload smaller mods. If someone provides an updated version (including tp2 and versioning) SHS staff can update the download, but my time for packing mod updates is limited with all the (official) mods I am maintaining.

[Gwendolyne]

Moreover, Vecna needs a good lifting as it is so buggy...

[Endarire]

I too want this mod to be properly updated and fixed, including with EET compatibility if it isn't already compatible.
