It doesn't work. The Edge still only has 4 levels

aaah, I think it may be the arrow walls. I created a mod for those and noticed that each arrow is a separate object, and because it shoots something like 25 arrows at a time, it has to create each one of those objects. With dozens of those traps, It would have to create hundreds of object at once. That is the only trap I used where I noticed a slowdown on my system.
On Passages, we blocked off the sides, so we had everyone walking along the top, then returning to the bottom and it didn't slow down at all even on the final wave.

Hi, no we didn't have any other mods on at all.

That's interesting, means it's possibly one of two things - his machine crashed, forcing mine to crash somehow (probably not this but who knows), or it was our trap set up.

We essentially funnelled everything into the main tunnel, and created a kill box near the top (Passages has three entry points, and an upstairs section). The kill box had steam traps, grinders, arrow walls and pounders.

Because of the setup, I wonder because if it crashed we weren't killing them quick enough, so the later waves simply overloaded the game engine with Orcs. I imagine other players may just create a massive kill zone near the rift where all lanes meet, or kill near where they come in.

Not sure, had fun though! We'll tweak it and see if we can finish the level without it crashing lol.

Hey Magoo, Were you using any other mods with this at the time? I played these stages over and over again, and only really experienced crashes when we were using my raining boom barrel mod. The mod allows the barrels to pile up, and I think with all the chaos happening on screen, it just gets too much for the game. Because of that, I tend to be careful which 3rd party mods I used with it.

We did experience one or two crashes after that, where it would exit straight to windows, but that was probably only one in every 10 games, if that. (My friend was playing on an AMD with an integrated vega 11 GPU, so it's not exactly a powerhouse. I've got a 1070ti with 16gb ram)
Unfortunately, I'm not sure how to stop it.
Glad you're enjoying the mod though, we got many, many hours of enjoyment out of it.

Hey man, this mod re-invigorated mine and my friends love for the game (we're just short of 200 hours since May last year)...

Noticed on Passages though, the game crashed at around wave 15, even after reducing graphics settings at wave 12/13 when things got a bit chunky. We've both got new-ish machines, plenty of RAM.

Don't suppose you know of anything we can fiddle with to stop this? Some DLL setting to utilise more RAM or something?

Appreciate the mod though, it's great! just gets a bit much for the game engine at times lol.

Amazing to see new mods come out for this old game. Almost makes me forget i can't play unchained anymore. Anyway this pairs well with other mods that make the game more difficult like 5× orcs or tougher mobs

Thanks Shady. enjoy! Once you're done with these, I've also released the classic stages.

Nice Mod, Dude !

i like how people are still making mods for this old game

Love the idea! However, after trying out 2 maps with this mod, one thing is very clear - It's super unbalanced. You basically end up with unlimited coins and a full map of traps which means no matter what the game throws at you, it's not gonna be any challenge. I suppose if you just wanna watch orcs die without any effort behind it, then this mod is great, but for those who still wanna put a little work into killing them, this mod isn't particularely fun.

Now i can toast six armored ogres at once. Great mod, really adds into the game.
