Yeah, I'd love someone make a 0 point version as well. I know for balancing reasons it's not, but i'd love setting this up for custom games. Other than that, great mod.

I will say a 0 point version would be good for some fun role playing runs!

Really amazing mod, seriously thank you for this!

@Scribe of Nekoti
Yes, AI factions with these traits will have the transformations applied to them automatically at the beginning of a game. :)

Nice! Does the AI use these automatically?

Hey guys, just put out a new update to cover the new Giant Kings DLC.

One of my favorite mods, would love a 1 or 0 point cost version.

love this mod but like many others i would love a way to change point cost!! <3

I can look into that yeah, seems like a decent number of people are interested in that.

can you please add a 1 or 0 point cost version? or tell me how to change its cost?

Will there ever be a 0 point cost version?

Thank you for creating this mod, Gurgle Nurgle. I enjoy it very much. Is there a way to make sure that AI players do not apply the transformation on their ruler if it happens to be a Wizard King? For example a Necromancer Wizard King that stays among the living while his people become Wightborn.

They're coming soon. :)

Do you intend to add the two new traits to this?

In case of AI, they will not use the skill but instead have the transformation applied to them directly, so the outcome is the same but the way there is slightly different for AI. :)
And yeah free city faction should never have these traits show up for them I'm certain.

If I put these traits on a opponent's AI will they use them round 1? (and if I'm not mistaken, I won't see these popping up on independent towns since those form traits are locked, is that correct?)

@Warm Toy : I just made a mod to allow majors transformations.
Analyzing the scripts of this one helped me, as it is my first mod; so thanks to Gurgle Nurgle.

It is easy to add several transformations effects by mod on ruler or race (so multiple major transformation is possible by mod), but when i tested my mod i discovered that when a ruler ascend, he keep only transformation if he had casted the spell (my mod was made to ascend any ruler as game start, with transformation and skill he choose.. i"ll push it on line soon)
This is probably why Gurgle Nurgle made the spell castable instead of directly add the effect to ruler and race; i just had the same issue and had to make the spell castable too in my mod.

And if you cast a major transformation while you have an other one, the game ask you if you want to replace the older one.
I do not know yet if it is possible to prevent this by mod

there's a mod to let you activate multiple major transformations. but that's casting them in game. @Warm Toy

If anything this would probably a seperate mod but I think it's not really possible without causing a lot of visual glitches and stuff, not sure. And many major transformations kinda work against each other in terms of mechanics. So yeah not sure how sensible this would be.

this mod is great. Is there any chance you can make it so we can choose multiple major transformations this way?

Shit I got it now lol thank you for your help!

did you select one of the traits?

Okay so I started a new game with a custom faction and opened my spellbook but I only have the starting spells

@PREDATOR, transformation spells are cast on the world map

do you have to be in a battle to cast the spell? thank you for the help!

Correct and you can find these traits all the way at the bottom of the form trait list so you gotta scroll a lil to find them. The mod is useful if you want to create a faction and want to make one or several transformations a fundamental part of it.
Like, maybe you want to create a faction of demons but normally you can only acquire the demonkin transformation quite late into a game, preventing your faction from embodying demons right from the start. This mod changes that.

@PREDATOR, this mod adds form traits, you can pick during faction creation, they grant you the minor/major transformation spell they are named after and make it available to cast on turn 1 for free.

If you don't cast it turn 1 then you'll have to spend casting points and mana

I'm new to the game so not quite sure how this mod works. Would someone mind giving me a step by step please? I would appreciate it!

The Tome of Chaos Channeling is dead, and has been remade into the Tome of the Inferno, now featuring Abyssal Flames, Fan the Inferno, Scion of Flame, Sacrificial Flame (a re-theme of Sacrifical Slaughter) and a brand new skill: the Ashen Vestal. It also adds Pillar of Fire to the Tome of Pyromancy.

Found what happened

Ah I see, haven't looked into how that works but maybe I can put together a compatibility patch in cooperation with them.

@Gurgle Nurgle, I think elemental tomes changes the tome scions of flame is in

Hey guys, just released a patch that brings the mod up to speed with Eldritch Realms!

As I'm currently occupied with other things, this maintenance update will be it for now in terms of changes made to the mod. So things like having the transformation visuals displayed in the faction preview will not be a thing for now. Hope ya'll understand and have fun with the mod regardless!

Another user also had that problem in the past, it seems to be a compatibility issue with the Elemental Tomes mod by Arca_Bibliophile. They said they disabled that mod when testing things and that fixed it. Although not sure why that would happen because my mod does not change any vanilla files connected to this transformation.

IDK why but Scion of Flame trait doesn't work anymore, it won't give you the transformation spell from start.

Yeah, I like what Bishamonten says. Hell, the society trait actually makes you start with it already active. So you could take whatever is there.

Yep!

Are Eldritch Realms DLC traits going to be added later?

so about transformations showing in the faction preview, the new society trait actually immediately applies a new transformation upon selecting it. so maybe you can use that as a reason to implement it too (and it will hopefully make it easier for you to do so as well!)

Alright thanks for letting me know, I'll look into it in due time!

that way eldritch leaders are excluded just like the dragon lord

the ting you want to include in that script is the "Eldritch Leader - Unit Requisite - Logic"

i made a version of your script to test it and it works by just copying the line that includes the "Dragon Lord Requisite" and paste it right under it + replace the dragon requisite with the eldritch requisite and repeated it for every transformation in that script

if you have an enemy that is an eldritch leader with one of the transformations especially one, that alters appearence more, like angel or naga, the leader glitches out.
I actually looked into the script you use for the ai, to prevent the bug with dragon leaders and i found an easy fix

What exactly is the problem? I'll update it eventually when I have the time but I'd be surprised if it causes issues rn.

using this with eldritch leader is very buggy, needs an update!

No problem. :) But good to know that those two mods clash but seemingly only when it comes to Scion of Flame? That's weird since I didn't make any changes to the vanilla files for that transformation. Might talk to the person behind it to figure something out. Thanks for letting me know!

@Gurgle Nurgle
I dug around my load order and you're right, it was a comparability issue.
Transformation Traits and the Elemental Tomes mod by Arca_Bibliophile appear to be incompatible. Disabling his mod fixes the issue.

As far as dragon lord transformations go, that's my bad. Seems to be a weird mod interaction (not sure which mod). Launching the game with no mods enabled prevents transformations from applying to them. Maybe I'll dig around again and find which mod is causing that.

Sorry about that. It wasn't your mod's fault to begin with.

@JKingJ
Mh that is weird that just Scion of Flame doesn't work for you, it has to be some compatibility issue with another mod or something, not sure.

Are you sure about transformations normally applying to dragon leaders? Because I'm pretty sure they don't do that or aren't supposed to at least. The More Traits mod had actually removed transformation traits because they were unable to find a way to PREVENT transformations to be applied to dragon rulers.

Scion of Flame also works for me btw

Idk. It's just that trait for me. Itll popup at the start of the game but then not be anywhere to be found in the spell book. So I can't cast it.

I also noticed that none of the transformations are applying to dragon leaders. They apply normally (if I research them).

Tested some more, they all work.
