Suggestions / Re: Easier to find masterwork small and broad knives

Agreed. Never found a masterwork broad knife, and only once or maybe twice found a small one.

Off-topic / The beauty of winter in your land. Sharing photos
« on: February 06, 2021, 05:56:17 PM »
For the last few days, I truly crave for taking a long long walk to some area untouched by man, where only silence, wind, and snow crunching beneath the feet is possible to hear, and for setting a campfire and sitting by it, with no thoughts, just watching the world exist...
But there's still zero snow in my part of the country, and so no least desire to go outside. At least I can enjoy photos my friends take, and hope you'll like them too. These are from outskirts of Moscow.
And how does winter of yours look, adventurers?

Modding / Re: Adding Custom Music?
« on: February 06, 2021, 03:56:50 PM »may or may not be necessary.
Supposed that sounds' filenames are hardcoded, replacing seems the easiest way. Once again, I'm no great programmer, so probably I don't know best. Just sharing ideas.

« on: February 06, 2021, 11:37:56 AM »
I suppose @Karmatose you mean music played when different game screens are active (the ones where music plays by design, like rituals screen) or events happen?
As of first case, I see an idea of some audio replacer that watches what game screen is active at the moment and replaces default audio files with ones from user-selected pool when it's possible. Say, each time you're back to the wilderness map or zoom in/out, the program overwrites default audio/ritual.ogg with one of /third-party audio replacer/audio/random_ritual_%number%.ogg, so the next time you hit F4, you hear different theme.
As of event-related music, I guess it's possible for the same audio replacer to watch msglog.txt (afaik the game updates it in real-time) for specific lines (like start of a battle), and when one of that lines appears, to play corresponding theme (however it will probably require extra programming effort to avoid conflicts with the first case).
Unfortunately, I'm waaay far from being skilled enough to code something like this by myself. But if someone could write this piece of software, that would be sure awesome. @Night, what do you think?

Laughing like hell. The dude probably thought, ‘Damn that, I'm tired to be the only one watching slaves and getting stabbed all the time.’
Who knows, maybe he even decided to spend a couple weeks in the forest working on ‘Cancel Slavery’ manifesto.

Off-topic / Streaming UnReal World. Any advice and suggestions?
« on: February 06, 2021, 08:14:53 AM »
Hi there, adventurers! Really glad to be finally back and see you all again.
After a couple pretty hard months I've happened to have a plenty of time free from duties, and there had been already thoughts on trying to stream stuff the last year... so recently I've finally started a channel and now going to give it a try. Not to become a pro streamer, just for fun (and, in a way, for the sake of self-therapy).
I do know UrW is not quite a game to livestream, like it's been said in YouTube content thread, and my case is gonna be even worse because of poor English and pretty low PC setup, haha. Yet, I suppose there are people who like it exactly the way it is, slow and calm and amateur.
Nevertheless, would be great to hear your thoughts guys on how to make letsplaying UrW better. Should I stick to challenges? Look for some appropriate relaxing soundtrack? Play funny or as hardcore as possible?
Hope @jonottawa is still here, maybe you can share experience you've got after making so many videos about UrW.

Wow, looks great!
I'm trying to build a village (a creepy ghost village with no one living there, granted...)
Pal, you've really got a spirit. I'm recalling how long it has taken to build just a single big house for my character, and I feel proud of you.

Mod Releases / Re: [3.63] URWSSSelector v1.0.1
« on: February 04, 2021, 11:53:25 PM »I took a look at it briefly after reading your post. Seems like it would work, but not something I want to invest a serious amount of time in currently, as I'd have to translate a lot of my work/learn the language before getting a decent foundation built. It's a good idea though for compatibility sake.
Is the mod written in C#? As far as I recall, there's MonoDevelop that is cross-platform, just like Lazarus, but is exactly for C#. Never used it myself, though, (got zero knowledge of C*, hehe), so can't say for sure is it good IDE or not.

Hi there!
Is sprites server down? I keep getting an error when trying to update. Also, is the mod still being developed?

Stories / Re: Fjara the Huntress of Owl-tribe. A Quest for Mother
« on: November 14, 2020, 12:59:13 PM »
DAY 1186
She had survived. Travelled all over Driik, working first for food, then for gear. She had come back to the Owl-tribe land. The pain of the loss did not go away, it only passed into the background. Her parents would have wanted her to go on.
And now Fjara stands, looking round the homestead built by her. She's achieved what her father and mother had dreamed of. This small estate is a tribute to the memory of them.
Hearing a merry singing, Fiara stops and suddenly, surprisingly for herself, decides to turn off to meet the owner of such a charming voice. He turns out to be a stately woodsman, busy with carving a trunk. He is so involved in work that he doesn't hear Fоara approaching with her little caravan. For some time, she just stands there and listens.
“You sing good,” at last says the girl. “It seems, we've never met before.”
The man turns around, a big smile breaks over his face. “I am new here. Who are you, young maiden?”
“A young maiden, like you said. Fjara is my name.” She steps closer.
“Mine is Frodr.” He puts aside an axe and sits down on the trunk.
Fjara stares at his face, and suddenly she feels her throat tighten. Can it be?.. He has njerpez ritual scars on the face. The ones they mark slaves with.
“You... you had escaped from slavery, right?” The thrill makes her dizzy.
“Yes, that is true,” he answers in a grim voice. “Two years, four months and eighteen days I had been a captive of those scum.”
“And was there... was there a woman named Eeva? Brown hair, blue eyes, a head taller than me, thirty one winters old?”
Frodr looks into her eyes attentively and says the words that make Fjara's heart pause and then beat faster, “Your mother?.. Yes, I did know her.”
The girl feels tears begin to flow down her cheeks. Legs fail her, and she falls on her knees, and stares at the ground blankly. “For all these years... mother was alive! I could have saved her!”, a thought occurs to her. But than another, calm, as if not her own, inner voice retorts, “No, you could have not. You were not ready. But now you are. There's a time for all things, and Sky Father assigns a proper role to everyone.”
Eeva looks senile, yet seeing the daughter makes her look twenty winters younger. They stand in the middle of the outpost, hugging and crying, and whispering words of love to each other disconnectedly, with no attention to the warriors who, having paused gathering the loot, look at them. At this moment, the mother and the daughter forget the world exists.
“Yes, mom,” Fjara chuckles, “All as we had wanted back then.”
Frodr stands in a distance, looking at her. “I guess, twenty-nine months of slavery were worth a girl like her,” he thinks and smiles.
THE END

She finishes loading up the bulls and deers and sets out. It's time to go to Driik, to trade. The weather is hot and sunny, and walking is a pleasure.Hearing a merry singing, Fiara stops and suddenly, surprisingly for herself, decides to turn off to meet the owner of such a charming voice.

There's a time for all things, and Sky Father assigns a proper role to everyone.”

Frodr agreed to help her. It will be a great joy for him to take revenge on slavers. He told that there was just a dozen warriors in that small outpost where he had been captured. Fjara exchanges all her valuable belongins for weapons, and hires almost forty men in Owl-tribe settlements. There's even more people willing to fight njerpez then she expected.***
They attack at night and kill almost all slavers in their sleep. No mercy, even on women and kids. They find three slaves... and one of them is Fjara's mother.Eeva looks senile, yet seeing the daughter makes her look twenty winters younger. They stand in the middle of the outpost, hugging and crying, and whispering words of love to each other disconnectedly, with no attention to the warriors who, having paused gathering the loot, look at them.

The three of them come back home. Eeva looks around, turns to her daughter and asks, “Have you really built all this by yourself?”“Yes, mom,” Fjara chuckles, “All as we had wanted back then.”
Frodr stands in a distance, looking at her. “I guess, twenty-nine months of slavery were worth a girl like her,” he thinks and smiles.
