Cybernetic Pig, Some early feedback. The new AI and upgraded bots are excellent. Challenging in a good way for both stealth and combat. The significant nerfs to JC's starting stats with untrained skills make the game quite difficult indeed. Especially swimming and environmental, but also stealth and...

Anyway, if more people take issue with the "grass" I'll remove it. Nobody had complained up 'till now though. It was a bit of an experiment though so I am definitely open to removing it. But hey, in this shot the "grass" looks better than the actual tree itself. I think I could maybe tweak the gras...

Cybernetic Pig, In GMDX 6.1, clean install per your instructions, I have some visual artifacts right off the bat on Liberty Island. I tested and these are not present in vanilla (in this build). See the attached files. Shot0000.jpg Shot0001.jpg I am assuming this is not what the vegetation is suppos...

Cybernetic Pig, Congratulations and thank you for providing this update for all us players of Deus Ex. I'll be starting a 6.1 playthrough shortly. On our other conversation: We don't want there to be too many grenades that any player can pick up and use also, we want to empower those that invest in ...

Throwing around ideas: 1. Demolition skills unlocks a quick grenade key. You press the key to throw the assigned grenade without having to equip it. 2. Demolition unlocks the ability to cook grenades. 3. Demolition increases chance of grenade discovery at advanced skill (very rarely a grenade has a...

As a rough guess I'd say 40,000. However, GMDX adds small skill point bonuses on occasion and sometimes modifies existing rewards, plus you start with an extra 1,500 because of the newly-implemented stealth skill. With GMDX I'd say you get about 45,000, skill points which is still not even enough t...

Say, On a pretty much unrelated and pseudo off-topic note I wonder, does anybody know what is the total number of skill points available in Deus Ex? I ask because I am sort of obsessively (and I guess somewhat sadly) trying to plan out various playthroughs with Cyber-P's new GMDX skills overhaul in ...

Cybernetic Pig, With regard to the spy drone - I'm not necessarily saying the vanilla Spy Drone (SD hereinafter) is "unbalanced" against the Aggressive Defense System (ADS hereinafter) making you always want to take SD. What I'm saying is that it seems like within the scope of the rest of DX that th...

Hello Cybernetic Pig. I'm looking forward to the final version of GMDX. I really like the look of a lot of your enhancements and this is a great opportunity for me to get in a real hardcore play through whilst I continue to await Revision 1.0. Also I commend you for trying to make a real upgrade to ...

Kocmo, thanks for the info - I was not aware of Unified until you mentioned it in your post. I'm not sure how it works just yet and how it relates to Revision/Renovation... You are suggesting that Revision *might not* be compatible with Renovation (assume you mean HR ver 1.3) - not sure why that wou...

G-Flex... the $64,000,000 question... will a newer moar completer version of Renovation be available in time for the launch of Revision on May 12th? I certainly am excited to maybe get my first Revised play through also to be Renovated as well... knowing how much hard and awesome work you have been ...

Hi guys, Long-time reader, first-time poster here... I'm just so super glad that people are still passionate and working on this game. I'm greatly impressed by all your skills and can't wait to start another playthrough when the Renovation mod is ready to go. On that point, and to some of the other ...

Could be. I'm a TNM noob on my first run through, so it sounds like it must be the case that I did *something* in the Quick Stop before my save game that stirred up one of the NPCs or NVS himself. Thanks for the thoughts guys. I only checked it about 3 or 4 times, and always from the same save game ...

Warning, possible very mild spoiler alert: Has anybody else noticed that unless you knock out everyone in the Quick Stop on day 1, NVS hacker and A2 will invariably die? I don't understand these other folks that say NVS will show up places, in PDX etc., because I have found that visiting the quick s...

I think I just answered my own question. Phasmatis says this because he's trying to tell you that if you have insufficient computer skill, you will get less credits from a given hacked account than the actual account balance, AND you will kill it to 0 in the process. He doesn't mean that you can rev...
