D2PK 3.2 has arrived!
 

Hello guys, I have put alot of time into this next patch, and I hope it serves us until D2PK 3.3 is done. There is alot of fruitful changes in which im sure EVERYBODY will like. Please note though, I didn't get to finish some certain features that I would have LOVED to have made this cut, but they will be in 3.3. I may even have them done sooner, so please expect more to come soon. Even so, 3.2 is still filled with plenty. I will list all of the changes / features I can remember right now. Here ya go.

Features:

- Rolling completely re-done, rare rolls should be much better now, I am sure people will LOVE this. Here is something I rolled in just 15 seconds of rolling:

- Vengeance damage buffed massively

- Impale has increased damage it gets per level, its also uninterruptible and has a much quicker attack animation

- Blades of Ice has had buffed bonuses from its synergies, and is also uninterruptible

- Cleansing / Holy Bolt have gained their healing abilities back

- Casting Cooldown on Volcano has been decreased

- You can now cast Battle Orders / Shout / Battle Command in town!

- Donor Skills now do appropriate damage, and count as the correct type of skill ( I.E. cow hammer counts as a Combat Skill, thus gets buff from Combat Skill GCs) They are also maxed at +3 now.

- Crafting should crash way less now due to new rolling system, not completely gone yet though. Getting there though ;)

- Launcher now works!

- Tier 0 is now obtainable, more info below

- Tier 1 no longer needs Epic Gems to be created. Sphere + Token is all that is required. As for the token, more info below

- Tier 7 has been added. It works the same as the other tiers, Tier 7 Tokens are obtainable the same way as Tier 5 + 6, by d2pk fg or donating

- A new boss has appeared, the Time Guardian. He is found guarding the portals to other parts of time. He is probably solo-able by about any character. He has some very nice drops, including Tier 0 + Tier 1 Tokens. This guy is a big part of D2PK 3.2.

- Epic Cain is back and with all new drops! Check Cube Recipes.txt that comes with this patch to find out how to open his portal.


That's a bunch of it guys, im sure I forgot something... like that I added a Fire Druid Pelt to the druid vendor; but this sums it up. I hope you guys enjoy the features, and REMEMBER TO READ THE CUBE RECIPES.TXT. It will answer *ALOT* of your questions.


ALSO, installing is a bit different now. You need to READ THIS PART AND FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY OR YOU CAN RUN INTO A BUNCH OF PROBLEMS.

Step 3) Browse the installer to C:\D2PK and install there.

Step 4) Run the D2PK Launcher, and click Add D2PK Gateway and Fix pbData Error. You CANNOT skip this step, or any other step. I don't care if you've ran them before!

If you have never installed D2PK before, follow these steps:

Step 1) Copy your Diablo II folder (normally in C:\Program Files\Diablo II) to C:\D2PK - YOU HAVE TO DO THIS!

That's it guys, I hope this patch meets its expectations.

EDIT: The installer doesn't work right for some... giving them errors while launching and what not. If that's the case, go here and follow instructions.
