Is there any info in the game or the manual that suggests Anna is Israeli? Following a youtube comment led to several wikis claiming that, but not sources cited.

Red Crown posted:I've got a quest (IW spoiler): Kill JC Denton. No, I mean before you're supposed to. In the sanctuary, it appears that the radius of grenades goes inside his little chamber. Also, if you contact det spider grenades they'll spawn inside. Since they follow you, they'll push him around, but he'll stay inside the chamber. I don't have any explosive grenades, but I know the radius of smokes, flashbangs and EMPs affects whatevers inside... Personally, I never really triedkilling him...that is until I got to NY, then I could cause in-fighting between parties and lead a squad of Templars and commandos to the statue. But it's interesting to know that you can still push him around within the chamber using spider grenades. Xander77 posted:It makes sense to track the status of those NPCs you have plans for - that is, "if status=dead, then=do something". If you have no such plans and "if dead, then=crash" you're probably doing it wrong. That's IW for ya :[

Is anyone interested in a video of Paul cleaning up (most) of Liberty Island? It's going to be pretty heavily jump-cut, because Paul's walking speed is slower than JC's crawling speed (just confirmed in-game)

Le Sean posted:What happens if you sneak into tracer tongs without the sword? Is there any new dialogue? You can't get into the secret basement, since the code is some 6-digit monstrosity they never tell you in the game (once you're supposed to be in there, they change the code to what it's supposed to be). It's quite easy to jump into the compound with Speed Enhancement, though doing so makes everyone in the compound hostile. If you do manage to break into Tracer Tong's lab, he simply doesn't spawn until you're supposed to be down there. Incidentally, setting everyone in the Luminous Path compound on fire is both entertaining and therapeutic.

Also, going back to the assassin thug theory - in retrospect, given that this is the plot of the same brilliant mind that decided to plant a bomb (A bomb?!) on your helicopter and only detonate it when you're done thoroughly loving their poo poo up, I can see that happening.

I always do this in the missile silo level: knock out the dick in the bottom of the silo, carry him up top, and center his body over the silo doors. When the missile launches, it will pick him up and take him with it. gently caress you, unimportant forgettable bad guy!

So I got bored and decided to figure out HOW to change sounds in Deus Ex, instead of whining about not knowing how. Initial tests have been promising. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hx1RyZ2C0DQ Maybe I'll beef up the sounds a bit for my next playthrough... though giving every enemy squeaky shoes would be funny.

Has anyone installed Biomod on a game in progress? I switched from Shifter to Biomod just after Liberty Island and the microfibral muscle aug hasn't become passive. Also, the aqualung I picked up after installing Biomod, even though it has the biomod text, is also not passive. Wondering if there's a console command to spawn the Biomod version of these canisters.

Velius posted:Can someone explain the retarded Invisible War save system? I must be new to this whole video game thing, because my expectation is that a 'quicksave' is a normal save game that lasts until I overwrite it by saving a new one. But I must be doing something wrong, because not only is the quick save not persistent upon leaving the game, if I accidentally choose to load something else (from the menu, naturally, because when you die it boots you back automatically), it overwrites the quicksave with whatever else I've loaded. Maybe a dumb question, but are you sure you're actually loading the quicksave? I ran into a similar issue only I realized I was loading the save directly below "QUICKSAVE" because the load menu makes it look like the quick save text is a header: QUICKSAVE Tarsus Labs I was clicking Tarsus and not QUICKSAVE.  Anyway this post will probably come back to haunt me but IW is actually turning out to be more fun that I thought it would be. I'd be pissed if I dropped $50 on release expecting the second coming of DX, but now that I'm over all the "CONTARD!" rage it actually stands pretty well on its own. Still no where near DX1, but the biomods are pretty cool and the gunplay is a lot smoother after you get the SMG.

Dr Snofeld posted:Shifter lets you replace augs, so yes, assuming you find a canister with the aug you're looking for. Gotcha. Well, now I'm running into a different problem. None of the things I'm spawning the cheat menu are actually appearing in game. Basically, even though I'm doing a stealth run, I decided against the spy drone because it flies at roughly .3 miles per hour and uses a retarded amount of bioenergy, meaning that you can go from a full bar to literally nothing by the time the drone gets 15 feet away from you, so I thought it was kind of worthless. However, Biomod has apparently improved the Spy Drone by a lot, so I'd like to give it another shot. However, nothing will spawn, including aug canisters, even after I go through the trouble of enabling the cheats, then trying to spawn the canisters into the game.

Guess I had my expectations too high from reading all the praise, but this game plays like Tekwar. I know people usually put their rose-colored glasses on when they talk about how good the games of yore were, but that' because those games could innovate, like xcom, dungeon keeper or jagged alliance 2. Recommended if you feel that conventional stealth/fps games have too few DoTs, I guess. Also, bonus for hilarious voice acting.

Try something simple like "ghost" or "fly" (use "walk" to disable these). If you can't get them to function, try enabling cheats manually with the command "Set DeusEx.JCDentonMale bCheatsEnabled True". Watch the upper left corner of the screen. If you did it right, nothing should appear here. If you did it wrong, some message will appear. Have you tried the command that directly alters your augmentations? I believe it's just augadd [name]. You might also try allaugs, which (if it works the same as allweapons) will just drop every canister at your feet.

The spy drone was great even in vanilla, it was a decent alternative to carrying around the GEP gun and a stack of EMP grenades. Inventory space is a much more valuable resource than bio energy in Dues Ex, and the spy drone was a good trade.

I spawned a repair bot, a medical bot, and a couple thousand medpacks and cats. But when I typed "summon augdrone 1" or "spawnmass augdrone 1" with or without the numbers, nothing happened, not even so much as a confirmation or error message.

I love active defense way too much to take the spy drone instead. Upgrading that thing to level 2 or 3 will protect you really, really well from just about every explosive weapon you'll ever have used against you, and bringing it up to level 4 turns fights against heavy bots and MJ12 commandos into hilarious suicide-fests.

Jagged alliance 2 had infinitely superior mechanics compared to the first, which pretty much was one good idea marred by the execution. So, nice try, I guess?

Does anyone know how to fix the horrible lag from prerendering using the D3D10 renderer? I'd play with vsync off because that'd fix it but that's not an option since you can't play Deus Ex with an uncapped framerate.
