I have added back the standees so that both the Season 1 Investigator models and standees are placed on the table. I've also converted the 3D model from obj to assetbundle format to speed up loading in the mod.

Very much appreciated. Thank you <3

@Sisquinamook
You make a good point, I'll update the mod to put out both the standee and 3D model versions of each and let the player pick which one they want. I'll update the mode presently.
Sisquinanamook Apr 13 @ 11:05am 
Hmmm. This might be too late to ask now, but could you keep the old standees as an optional selection somehow? Not everyone likes miniatures for their character figures. :D

Additionally: If we set the color of this miniature to the player color: does it change the color of the base or does it change the whole miniature color? Because we always set the standee color to the player color, to make it easier to find them on the board, but changing the color of miniatures usually makes them look really ugly and it is not even the color of the player but a muddied greyish dark tone of it. Changing colors of standees only changes the color of the base and keeps the art of the picture untouched.

I've replaced the Season 1 investigator standees with painted 3D models created by aldosont.

I think you are correct, I believe if you have a good internet connection when you launch TTS it will update all of the mods to current versions. Maybe there are people who have a saved copy of the mod that they updated and were using that copy rather than the live version. That or maybe there was a network issue or the computer was offline and it didn't update the mod when starting TTS?

If you don't have a cached version of the file then TTS will download the asset from Steam, maybe if there was networking problems or a minor outage at the time then this could also happen with the current version of the mod.

I'm glad that the mod isn't broken but let me know if you find anything else.

@Trindall
I don't know what's happened but today it's work without problem. Yesterday me and two of my friends try to create and had same problem.

But anyway thank you!
I'll let you know more detailed info if this problem will happen again :)

Also how we can upload the last version of mod? I was thinking steam update it automatically if you follow it.
Trindall  [author] Apr 1 @ 9:10pm 
@VI_Kopo6oK
I loaded up the mod and configured TTS to always download everything. (Not use cached files.) I opened up every box and episode and did not find any that had missing tokens or assets at all.

Can you make sure that you are using the latest copy of the mod? Also if you can give me the name of one of the episodes you get this problem with? I'll do some research on my side, there may be some TTS related issues for certain types of OS/hardware combinations maybe?
VI_Kopo6oK Apr 1 @ 12:26pm 
Starting from 3 box and last 2 seasons in 2th box we can't find files. A few elements as tokens, discovery and etc can't upload and ask links

@Axl Dread
Thank you for catching the typo in the description. I've updated it now so that it is, hopefully, correct.

That situation with the episode deck is a tricky one to handle with the way things are currently set up.

If you deploy the elder one first, which also puts out a mythos deck, and the episode second, then the mythos deck from the episode combines with the elder one deck.

The guid of the episode mythos deck is gone now and the recall function of the episode can't find it anymore to return it.

To pull out cards from the combined deck I need to know the guids of each card and then scan the deck to pull them out individually.

That can be done but would take a good bit of re-architecting.
Axl Dread Mar 14 @ 6:25pm 
Just a little thing, in the Episodes listing, you mention Unspeakable box twice when there's the Unspeakble Box on one side and the other one is the Unknowable Box.

That being said, this mod is awesome, And with minis in 3D at that! Incredible.
I can't imagine how many hours you must have spend when you were crafting it.

Thank you for your time, and thank you for sharing!

@Trindall
Thank you. Also, we had this issue the other day: I placed S01E05 on the table. Then we wanted to change to S01E04 so I recalled E05 and placed E04. Then we started to play and when we were at the Mythos deck part of the game when I fetched the card it was still from S05. We got confused for a little while then had to reload the mod and started from scratch. FYI.

Thanks for adding some protection for the investigator boards and everything else.

You are a treasure, thank you again!
Trindall  [author] Mar 13 @ 10:29pm 
@HoustonAg1980
I've bought all of the gameplay stuff from the latest kickstarter. I'll get it all scanned and added whenever it ends up shipping.
HoustonAg1980 Mar 13 @ 5:40pm 
This is fantastic, thank you!

Do you have plans to also incorporate Seasons 5 & 6?
Trindall  [author] Mar 13 @ 7:24am 
@RedLine
I've added some protection to the Investigator boards and standees from being deleted by the player.

It turns out that the onObjectDestroy/onDestroy event handlers are too late in the process and won't work to prevent the deletion. But checking the action type in onPlayerAction will allow me to prevent deletion on objects that have certain tags.
Trindall  [author] Mar 12 @ 4:51pm 
@RedLine
Intercepting the onObjectDestrioy() and stopping it for certain items should be a fairly straightforward route. I'd likely tag the items that I wouldn't want a user to accidentally delete and then check if the object had the tag or not in the destroy call. There are a lot of parts in this mod in many different areas, for now I'll target the investigator boards/standees since these are basically singletons at the moment. If this works and there are more parts to protect then I can add those as well.
RedLine Mar 12 @ 7:10am 
@trindall
I understand, so afaiu it's a core mechanic of TTS. There's an event called onObjectDestroy which might be useful. You could get the object info before it's destroyed and put it back to it's original place. In case it does not already exist there or somewhere else (cloned).
Trindall  [author] Mar 11 @ 6:37am 
@redline99
This is a hard one for the mod. The components that you pull out and use and the only ones on the table so if they get deleted then there isn't a lot to do. I would have expected rewinding time to have fixed that if done soon enough but I've not actually tried that myself.

Let me think if there is anything I can do to at least keep a backup of the player boards somewhere.
RedLine Mar 11 @ 2:44am 
First of all, this is a great adaptation, thank you for implementing it herein TTS. I had this case which I'm not sure it's something to fix or it's just my ignorance. I was playing around the board and deleted my character sheet. Then it was lost forever. I could not find it and had to open a new room to get it. I tried to find a menu containing deleted components to bring it back but could not find it. Also, I rewinded the time back but I passed the limit time and still it wasn't there when I rewinded with the maximum allowed value.

I've added a button to combine the fire tokens into a single bag.
Trindall  [author] Mar 1 @ 8:34pm 
@thejunecooperative
I've tried to reproduce the Relic/Insanity issue that you reported but this isn't happening on my side. I load up the mod and click the buttons and all four are working. Is this still happening on your side? What steps are you taking so I can try the same on my side.

I've updated the fire tokens from S02E02 to match the artwork used in the rest of the mod. A while ago when I updated the artwork I overlooked these 11 tokens.

On my side when I've needed to use a combined pool of fire tokens I've just pulled tokens from one bag when needed until it was empty and then pulled from the second, there wasn't any difference that having them in a single bag.

I can add a script to put a button in, though, if this would improve the mod for you. Is this something that you would like? A button could take all of the items from one bag and put them into the second.
Trindall  [author] Mar 1 @ 8:28pm 
rivs42 has started digitally painting minis from the mod and I've updated the first five models that have been done with the new models. I've updated the two Season 1/2 cultists, Hastur, Hastur disciple and Wilbur Whately.
thejunecooperative Feb 28 @ 6:12pm 
Additionally another extremely minor quibble that you don't have to worry about but is there a way to easily move all the fire tokens into one bag if I am using components from both the original box and Fear of the Unknown? (The instructions tell you to do that.) It's not a big deal I can theoretically just move them out as needed and in it just gets a little clunky with the two bags sometimes, even if it's better than the way it worked before you added the two bags. Anyways this isn't nearly as important as the bugs with the shuffling I mentioned before, or the other bug I just mentioned. Thanks for all the work you've done on this mod!
thejunecooperative Feb 28 @ 6:11pm 
Hey! Was playing the mod and for some reason the Relic and Insanity buttons broke on the board for 4 and 5? I'm getting the error "Error In Script (PlayerCardStand5 - a9b6db) function <buttonClick_addInsanity>: chunk_4:(99,28-102,6): attempt to perform arithmetic on a nil value". Also is there a reason S2E2's fire tokens look different than the other ones? I assume this is just because you used different scans but it does look a little odd playing with both.
Trindall  [author] Feb 26 @ 7:12am 
@iljapreuss
I agree that this would be annoying.

I've put together a fix for this but am running into a Steam error when uploading the change to the workshop. I'll try again later on when this issue gets resolved to publish the changes.
iljapreuss Feb 26 @ 2:07am 
When I safe and load a running game, the "place relic" and "place insanity" buttons are back, which is slightly annoying.
An easy fix could be to first check whether there is already a card lying there?
Trindall  [author] Feb 24 @ 1:13pm 
@rivs72
I've got the files prepared and ready for you. I've sent you a Steam friend request and can provide additional details through that format.
rivs72 Feb 23 @ 3:19pm 
@Trindall
Amazing thanks.
Trindall  [author] Feb 23 @ 12:46pm 
@rivs72
Give about a day to pull together files and I'll send you a link.
rivs72 Feb 22 @ 11:18pm 
@Trindall If you don't mind sharing the model data - that would be best. I guess I can re-supply them to you and you can choose use them or not. I wouldn't want to work with the asset bundle and break anything?
Trindall  [author] Feb 22 @ 9:33pm 
@rivs72
I have the models, textures and normal maps from before baking then into a unity asset bundle.

I don't know how easy it is to extract the model data from the asset bundle, if you want to go that route then that is fine.

But if youd like I can share the model data.
rivs72 Feb 22 @ 4:59pm 
I am a VFX artist. If I can find a way to access the models and the textures I'd love to paint the Minis using the CMON concept art as reference!!

@thejunecooperative
I've pushed an update to the mod that should hopefully improve the Relic/Insanity card clipping into the playmat. It was a quick thing to change so I've done that, let me know if it is still a problem.

The auto-shuffle business will take a bit more work to address. Right now it is just a dumb zone that will reshuffle if anything enters the zone. Simple but no longer good enough. The next simplest method is a button and this may be the way I'll go as it'll greatly simplify the code. (Versus keeping track of the deck guid and shuffling the deck at pre-determined times.)

The deploy of the Unknown Monsters is the biggest set of work to accomplish. It is currently not sensitive to the already included monsters, I'm relying on the players to decide to use or not use a random draw than to try and track all deployed monster types. I'll need to think about this last request a bit to see what can be done cleanly.
thejunecooperative Feb 11 @ 9:04pm 
Might be the playmat and not the table tho.
thejunecooperative Feb 11 @ 9:03pm 
Also the insanity and relic dealing function work very well, but as is like I said both actually end up underneath sometimes.
thejunecooperative Feb 11 @ 8:31pm 
Could you also add a button to set up Unknown Monsters? This would be quite nice but I know a lot of scripting. Especially if it's sensitive to the already included monsters when randomized so you don't accidentally duplicate. That sounds like a lot tho so I don't realistically expect you to do that part unless it seems feasible. Perhaps just making it so you physically don't have the figures to accidentally duplicate unknown monsters so when setting up you can't do it on accident, how it is IRL?
thejunecooperative Feb 11 @ 8:30pm 
Perhaps functionality to set a card to the bottom or reveal what's on top would smooth out play as well, but that's even lower priority, as for now I'm just concerned about them being almost unplayable when the deck will shuffle itself regardless of how you put it at the bottom. Current only manual fix is to set them aside when on the bottom, which can be confusing for checking the mythos discard pile at end of turn. This is even less necessary but some tracker for the Mythos discard symbols i.e. a number tracker like what you have for actions would be quite nice Other solution is to just separate them into 2 piles and hovering over, or to spread them out far, or to remember to check closely, and would reduce the risk of missing that step at the end of turn. Once again I am aware that that side of the board is quite crowded though.
thejunecooperative Feb 11 @ 8:21pm 
I don't have a good solution for this but also it seems like it's difficult to play Fatima or with the Crystal Ball Relic at present because the Mythos Deck is so sensitive to shuffling itself when disturbed. If I had to suggest a solution it'd be to turn off auto shuffling or make the shuffling into a button, but perhaps you have better ideas because that side of the board is indeed getting crowded. I just know it's hard to manipulate the Mythos deck properly as is.
thejunecooperative Feb 11 @ 6:34pm 
The insanity cards appear to be slightly below the table when dealt with the episode already out. Any idea why this is?
thejunecooperative Feb 11 @ 6:05pm 
Yay thank you so much! :) Gonna test out the game again!
Trindall  [author] Feb 6 @ 9:40pm 
I've added an "Add Animal Allies" button near the Relic deck. This will drop in the Animal Allies relic cards into the Relic deck, shuffle it a few times and place the standees and player aids nearby for ease of use.
thejunecooperative Feb 5 @ 9:47pm 
I wasn't thinking of the animal allies being always in per se, I just want to make sure there's an easy way to add them to the auto relic dealing if there isn't already.
Prince Feb 5 @ 9:36am 
@Trindall Oh okay, I'll do just that, thanks for the help and all your hard work with this mod! :lunar2019grinningpig:
Trindall  [author] Feb 5 @ 7:02am 
@Prince
I don't think I have the base files for most of the game minus the most recent updates. However you, or anyone, can download all of the assets from the mod using the "TTS Mod Backup" tool. It is on Nexus, It needs .NET 5 but it works well once installed. It will let you back up all assets for any mod into a compressed file that you can then extract and then look through to get all of the tile files.

The resolution and quality of the original tiles is lower compared to the most recent updates though. I tried to be more economical with file size in the beginning considering the tiles are just small pieces in TTS. But with internet access speeds increasing over time I did do slightly higher resolution files in the latest release.
Prince Feb 4 @ 3:35am 
Hi, I just wanted to ask if you'd be willing to share the files for the game tiles. I have a physical copy of the game along with its expansions and am planning on printing out the different scenario maps on a large booklet for easier setup.
Trindall  [author] Jan 28 @ 8:59pm 
@Prince
I've made a small tweak to the mod to get the Mythos and Discovery decks to more reliably auto-shuffle.
Prince Jan 28 @ 8:29pm 
I noticed the Mythos and Discovery decks don't automatically shuffle themselves anymore when I put cards into them like before.
Trindall  [author] Jan 28 @ 4:39pm 
@thejunecooperative
I have not added in adding the Animal Allies to the Relic deck yet, it is still on my todo list.

In addition to adding in the relic cards I want to also pull out the standees and likely even the relic card sized reference cards so the player can pull them when or if they need. The space in that area of the table is already very crowded and I need to run some tests on how to add these in without cluttering things too much and also making it obvious to the player that they can do this.

Although the Animal Allies is intended to be in the relic pool a particular player or group may not want to add them in. I'm looking for this expansion to be an opt-in expansion but I'm open changing that if enough people want the Animal Allies in always.
