New Items Deluxe (2.20b)

Description
If you want to submit a translation for your language – contact me.

Now supports vanilla savegame import!
Savegames from Legacy New Items are safe to import, but some battle locations may be unavailable.

Features:
+ 5 common and 7 unique swords (26 in total with all their variations);
+ 3 common and 8 unique bows (25 in total with all their variations);
+ 3 common and 6 unique staffs (19 in total with NG+);
+ armor and weapon slots for dragons – defensive and offensive orbs;
+ 4 common defensive orbs (8 in total with NG+ versions);
+ 5 common and 2 unique offensive orbs (14 in total with NG+ versions);
+ 3 common and 2 unique heavy armors (10 in total with NG+);
+ 1 common and 4 unique light armors (12 in total with all their variations)
+ armor slot for berserkers – boots (currently added six pairs + three unique + upgraded versions = 20 pairs in total);
+ 16 new battle locations so you can get enought gold and skulls for upgrades;
+ Market town location. You can suggest almost any item down in comments so it could appear in the Market;
+ Library town location, where you can "learn" about some artifacts.

Note that orbs are unsellable because of their flavours.


I will never remove any of vanilla weapons or armor in this mod, yet some common items have little changes in their power and price.
Also, I've increased gold rewards a little for some battle locations since in other battles I've replaced gold with item rewards.

Why do we need Library? Some items were intended to have flavours before NG+ and that's the only way around, because when the item drops as battle reward, it comes with no flavours for some reason.

Some legacy-size textures may be missed. Please, play Legacy, if you want the old artstyle. This mod is aimed to HD version only.

TODO:
- redraw item sprites.

Known bugs so far:
- If you see the "DON'T ENTER HERE!" description of the pearl, it means that you really shouldn't. That's not a bug actually, it's just that that location is not implemented yet.

If you'll notice any bugs - report them =)

"Endless 2" causes Crash, i don't know why.
When i try to start the round it gives "Null Object Reference" error and crashes.
Lame.
Tested: It does not crash on the unmodded version.

> is this mod works with latest version? Is this mod complex? Just want a chill RPG experience with DQ but more content willl never hurt.

It should, but it's abandoned, so no guarantees. AFAIK, it mostly works and it doesn't break any original game scripts. You shouldn't run into any problems with new locations as well, unless there's "DON'T ENTER HERE!" text on them.

It's still being updated. I checked the official site. There's new media of characters etc.

What release?

Came back to do a quick run of the game hero mode'd everything. Mod was very enjoyable. You happen to be one of the few waiting for DQ2's eventual release?

Thank you for the update!

Nah, it's OK. All you did was just that you made me fix the broken stuff, nothing more, so there's nothing you should worry about =)

I realy like your Mod and I feel you deserve something for it, also you fixed stuff for my desire.

Well, it's a MOD :D
I mean, things like this have always been free community-maintained content expansions.
In some cases, mods are sold for real money: it happens when the two factors meet each other: 1) a company (game publisher mostly) wants to profit from everything they could; 2) some modmakers are creating great content, and since they know (or sometimes overrate) their own worth, they have Patreon with the latest/premium versions of their mods anyway.
Sure, in the age we live in there are some cases of such mod markets But I think that community content - as long as it's not of a size of Skywind or something - should be at least available for free, with nothing more than a possibility to willingly donate to the modder. Yet again, it's just a thing of etiquette. I mean, nonetheless, every modder him/herself decides, whether he/she should get money for the work.
