well im gonna throw my grain of salt and say that i use both blood&mana and DW 0.5 together with no issues, one of the things i recall i had to do was adding the changes ds raider made to champions into the core libraries because they take priority over loose xml it seems.

Other than that i don't recall having other mayor incompatibilities, if i remember something else ill post it here.

Thanks to both of you guys for sharing your work with us!!!.

Well I had plans to borrow your AI tweaks at some point for D&W so that's handy 

If I wasn't spending so much time modding i'd be playing LH with Blood & Mana, I think it's great... probably my fav mod, I like your attention to detail.

Regarding compatibility, i've just had a quick look through your files, and I think as you/NM have suggested it should work mostly if you make sure that B&M implements the background stats stuff.  So the main things are:

- add appropriate bg stats to any units you create

- use the bg stat method for applying damage from spells, items etc.  So +5 damage vs undead should use the bg stats method to apply it.... i'm sure you would have already seen how HF has done it in the bg stats library.

Then less important stuff...

- if you have summoning spells that are intended to be a "summon" rather than a "call" type thing, make them bg stats of summoned like HF has done.  The only thing is D&W has abilities that make summons cost less mana etc... it's a really clunky implementation, I have multiple copies of spells to achieve it.  I'd suggest not trying to get that working, that will be a minor thing that wouldn't quite be compatible.   Totally up to you but the simple thing to do is take something like your "Summon Hound" and change it to "Call Hound"... so that it implies that the Hound is not technically going to count as a summons.  Actually I just looked at your code and you haven't applied the UnitStat_BonusSummonLevel to that one... so it's not probably not intended to count as a summon.   Thats a bit of a ramble but you get the point, for D&W I try and use the terminology guideline of "Call Something" = unit does not count as summoned and summon level bonuses to not apply..... where as "Summon Something" = the creature will count as Summoned and get the bonus levels. 

- I double up enchantment spells also in D&W to give a mana discount from the Enchanter abilities in my Mage path.  I don't think you've got any spells that would need that through from what I saw.  (In any case probably not worth worrying about too much it's no big deal).

- D&W replaces a lot of the default abilities in the Mage path, if you create any Champions that have the Mage path, check they don't have abilities that have been "removed"

That's about it I think.

Having said that... if/when I ever get around to releasing the new D&W.. it will probably break compatibility because i've got a lot of new race types and stuff coming.  But when that happens i'll be keen to take a look at what I can do to get the mods working together somehow... because as I mentioned I'd like to apply your AI changes to what i'm doing in any case... looks like you've definitely made some improvements in that area.

Wow, I love both of your mods, so to see you working together to get them compatible is awesome!!!!

hi!

i follow your intallation instruction and installed the mod. I have the summoner path but mage path has no changed and i haven't found any 'new' resource (like beast or battle). They didn't appear in eghemon and in the word map

How can i fix it

I'm playing 1.6 with COS mod 

thank you in advice!

it's ok i solved thank you!

So what is everybodies favorite summoned unit? I find Air Elementals to be extremely good, you can get them as early as level 7 and they can often move twice before enemies can.

Genius work shouldn't be rushed, take your time.

Abob! Sounds great, no worries, I think i'll go crazy and i'll try xtradeconstruct with Children of Storm and Demons and Wizards and pray to god!

Cool, will be interested to see how it goes.

That was quick!

Yeah the resource type limitation is new to me, bit of a bummer.  It will get worse with the new version of D&W because of got more resourcetypes in there also.

If you haven't already seen it there was some suggestions on things to remove in this thread:

https://forums.elementalgame.com/454945/page/1/#3471158

Seems like removing the CoS rivermod is the best start point as it uses 17, then some of the ones that you don't need some much like the Arcanium ones, not sure how close that will get you but that'd be the start point.  Looks like you can check the log to see how it's going (see other post).

I'd suggest just removing these two.

That should be fine i'm not using this slot.

99% sure i'm only using Y=5, 6 and 7.  So if Primal is only using Y=8 it should actually be ok.

The worst case scenario if there is any overlap is that some of your ability selection layout might be a bit messed up.

That's a pretty heavy dose of awesome you'll be ingesting, be careful.

Assuming i can ensure i install Primal's mod properly you're right, if the PC explodes, it'd be worth it! Hey any idea what the TraitPathChoiceWnd is? Primal has instructions in installing it, and i think you do as well but i'm still not 100% clear what it is. 

I gave it a try this afternoon, and I am testing with a mix of D&W, CoS, & X D minus rivermod and a few X D resources.   So far so good.   If it actually works, I'll post a version.    I went through the pages on this post and the X D post.  

hey Abob! Question for you, and this is a weird one. It could be some kind of mix between your mod and Primal's mod, however, the individual shrills,specifically the fire shrills are doing more damage than the group ones, its really weird. I did not have this issue when i wasn't running both your mod and Primals. Any idea what could cause it. In his mod, most creatures obviously are much higher level than the units you send at them,so while my shrills are 13, the enemy is at 20 or so. Thanks.
