Dialogue flaws and area lockups... not sure if it has to do with the paladin mount or not. _________________________ Steve's Characters - please don't forget to vote on them if you play them.

Just wonder, do anyone knows something about the story of the chapter 3? I really wanna know how the story ends

Played this a while back and liked it quite a bit, but unfinished trilogies make me sad.
Can't really get the mod started. I get to the point where I'm supposed to leave the village, and Miho just says, "I cannot work with you." and I can't leave the village. What is wrong here?
Sometimes when you are using WinRar, it decompresses the files in a folder. Check in the hak folder to see if you find the K haks. Hope it helps! _________________________ ADK

trying to give this a go and keep getting missing hak pack messages. I played number one first and have down loaded and redownloaded the K2 haks. Still getting this:
[Mon Nov 15 12:00:03] Loading Module: ADK_Kunoichi 2_The Temple_on_the_Mountain 11
Couldn't load the Hak Pak File "adk_music2.hak"
Couldn't load the Hak Pak File "orirural_v3.hak"
Couldn't load the Hak Pak File "femaletorsos.hak"
Could not load the Module.
Missing required HAK file.
Any ideas?

Since i have read that ADK and a friends is currently translating part 0, i was wondering if maybe there is hope to see part 3 comeing too.
Anyone know if ADK is working on part 3 or has he/she droped the serie for good and part 0 will be the last of the Kunoichi mods ?
I even would be happy with a frensh version of part 3.
Would take me years i guess but to see the series to the end i even would translate it myself.

PRO:
Decent module using custom content.
Good music - very atmospheric.
Interesting story and characters.
Different kinds of quests based on story -- good/evil options.
CON:
Very money poor adventure, few rest areas and some tough fights made for lots of reloading for my rogue/monk.
A couple of very hard puzzles made for a lot more reloading (one in particular is just a matter of guessing right)
Spelling errors were quite distracting.
Also, an unfinished series is always something of a disappointment.

I realize that the module's a few years old, but after struggling to maintain my sanity for the last several hours, I felt compelled to share my experience.
I wanted so very much to like this module, especially considering how much I enjoyed the first. According to the description, it's supposed to last, at most, two hours and a half. I am now at the five hour mark, not because of the amount of content, but because the module is so completely broken in certain areas that I've had to reload the game from almost a dozen different saves just to get past certain bugs. Without exaggeration, I can't remember when I have ever been more frustrated while playing a game.
I see that some people have posted a few bugs, but here are the ones I can remember off the top of my head.
More often than not Miho's conversations do not trigger during the journey to the mountain. (I didn't even realize I had missed them until I tried restarting the entire module a second time. I suspect you have a single trigger to have her speak up, but if the PC does anything to interrupt her from talking to you - and anything in this case can mean doing nothing at all - the conversation is irreparably broken.)
The WORST bug has already been mentioned. Despite trying everything my mind could possibly come up with, I find NO way to get around Aki's "When you killed my child, you killed me..." dialogue bug. This is not a case of screwing up the script by doing something unpredictable or out of order. I actually don't think there is any way to inform Aki that you've completed the quest and to get the reward.
Although this is likely a design flaw and not a bug, the last straw for me was when you reemerge from the cavern beneath the well and return to the top of the mountain. The path backwards disappears, and you can't reenter the well. This was an extremely unpleasant surprise since I'd left all my heavy equipment in there so that I could run to a place to rest before returning to pick it all up. Since I saved after returning, the equipment was all lost. Yay.
I can't remember, but I'm pretty sure there were a couple of other major bugs that broke a save or two each as well.
Some things about the design also greatly irritated me.
Firstly, while I understand that you were attempting to channel realism by limiting rest areas, it was truly tedious to backtrack every time you needed to heal up. Gold is very scarce in this module (something I don't have a problem with), so frugality is a must. This leads to a -lot- of dead time and boredom as you make your way back to wherever the last safe area was. This was especially egregious on the mountain itself, where I found myself running for what seemed like miles between each encounter just to be healthy enough to survive the next (and even then, I sometimes did not).
The skeleton warrior in the cavern below the well feels incredibly cheap. With each swing easily dealing damage in the double digits and with significant damage resistance, it seemed virtually impossible to defeat. Even more frustrating, the traps prevent you from even being able to run away. It's possible to simply avoid it, but it guards what I believe to be the only resting area in that whole section.
Speaking of the traps, I was fortunate enough to play a character with both high search and disable traps, but supposing a character didn't have those, I'm sure she would have a miserable time getting out of there. The number of traps were -beyond- excessive.
More minor bugs that aren't game-breaking, but were annoying/odd:
When you come across a scene with NPC dialogue, you're often expected to talk to one particular NPC to trigger the scene even if several NPCs are involved. For example, it would make sense to be able to start the cutscene with the arrogant ninja near the beginning by talking to your sensei. Doing so does nothing, however; you're expected to talk to the nameless ninja next to him to get the scene started. That's counter-intuitive; generally speaking, talking to any NPC involved in a scene should get the ball rolling. This also happens with the fight between "Rabbit" and Dragon Claw. Talking to Dragon Claw yields a blank stare. You have to talk to "Rabbit" to get it started.
If you talk to "Rabbit" right after the fight starts, the fight doesn't happen, and it's assumed you won.
A host of dialogue bugs caused significant confusion. I honestly cannot remember them all, but one that sticks out occurs if you threaten Eishi and cause her to faint, then rob her. After you've finished, she reverts to her, "Get out of here, peasant" which seems extraordinarily odd, considering she was terrified for her very life a second ago.
If you fail your persuade check to get the mother and daughter out of the old house, you can escape out of the dialogue and try again. Speaking of which, why is the persuade check the only option to save them? Is it physically impossible to force them out of the house? Feels like a minor design flaw (but irritating if you fail the check).
There's an infinite xp loop where you can keep talking to Kaisuke and sparing his life for 100 xp. (Instead of disappearing, he just stands at the edge of the map).
There is immense potential here, and I think that was what was most frustrating of all. I stuck with the module for hours simply because I enjoyed your writing, and I really wanted to see where the story would go. But the technical problems were so glaring, that I just couldn't get through it. I'm sorry. I really do hope Kunoichi 3 comes out, but I also hope you clean this module up first someday. Best of luck.

So what is happenning with instalment 3? - Nag! Nag! Nag! Nag!
Posted by necroburzum at 2009-05-30 04:15:57 Voted 9.75 on 05/30/09
Wonderful tilesets, moods and music, good history, a bit too short and part 3 is missing, a bit messy the scripting part with buggy conversations and journal.
absolutely to try.
Posted by CheeseshireCat at 2009-02-28 05:49:32 Voted 8.50 on 02/28/09
8.50 because of:
* incomplete translation;
* numerous recurring dialogs and out of sequence dialogs bugs;
* totally out of place (especially given monks' explanation afterwards) riddles in Room of Knowledge;
* high linearity with high potential for branching it.
The examples would be:
* completely ignored L/N/C alignment axis (I'd put differernt riddles for them - that's where they'll be REALLY matching up);
* integer -2 to +2 relationship scale for most folks. While on itself it's OK, consider that you are already likely carrying +1 or -1 on start, and no obvious reason to move to the other side. That makes four or five possible shifts for Miko kinda wasted.
Other than that, great. Flavor is an A+.
Posted by CheeseshireCat at 2009-02-28 05:03:54 Voted 8.50 on 02/28/09
The final puzzle in the Room of Knowledge has a translation problem in that it can be read two opposite ways.
"He leaves his house and goes the opposite way to the South-East" could be more likely read as "going SE, i.e., in opposite direction to where he found the first plant" than "in direction opposite to SE".
Posted by CheeseshireCat at 2009-02-28 00:52:08 Voted 8.50 on 02/28/09
One more bug. There's an XP loop in Yuki-Onna quest. When you rough up the guy, you can talk to him again and again accusing him of being her husband and getting 75XP every time.
Posted by CheeseshireCat at 2009-02-27 22:39:00 Voted 8.50 on 02/28/09
Didn't finish yet, just wanted to mention one bug. In the poisoning the tea sidequest, if you *accept* it, even with an intention to flip on it, some variables seem to set as if you actually *did* it, and Aki starts saying "when you killed my child, you killed me".
Also, there are at least a few things which remained in French (at least one item description, a few item names, and floating text notifiers). While mine is REALLY rusty, it didn't cause enough of a problem to remember where exactly they are, though :) Only that all of them were encountered in one of three places: bandit encounter, abode and watchtower (IIRC, in geisha route there).
Other than that... A damn great thing.

Fantastic, expertly crafted and thoroughly immersive module. This module really excels in almost every aspect: the story is well-written, involving quests that make sense while avoiding most of the standard cliches and shopworn tropes, wonderful use of custom content and music to make the setting come to life, interesting characters with personalities, challenging combat and puzzles, and decent roleplaying. My only real complaints is that there's a bit more backtracking than I like, and I found the challenges presented by the old man tedious and annoying in that they involved me reloading over and over again until I got the right answers almost by chance. However, I don't really like puzzles, and at least these fit believably into the story. Overall, an amazing piece of work.

How is the translation for the prelude module progressing?
Just curious.
Thanks.

Another good mod - bu free but again like it suffers from being too short and just as I am getting into it - well it is all over. Wonder if there will be a third installment - hope so!If demands of parenthood etc allow!
