Good afternoon.
A little
SanchoMod update teaser if I may.
First of all, those that don't give a hoot about my work then please disregard this wall of text post. I'll likely not change your thoughts so no need to read any further and waste your time. For the rest, check it out:
While porting over my old beta mod from last year to current I've been adding even more new features to Core v6 of the mod. Folks accustomed to SanchoMod will know that one of the muscle features is the dynamic freeroam abilities with a couple highlight examples being 1) the Bella plant watering freeroam in BaD, 2)the Flink Mansion freeroam in Eternum, 3) the Private Jet freeroam in LoF, etc. One thing that was always missing that I had started coding out some time back but hadn't finished was SanchoHover help for the freeroam events. That base code has now completed.
Remember that the freeroam task information in the MiniStat screen still dynamically changes according to where the player is at and what tasks are still yet to be completed, that doesn't change. What does change is the new information available when you hover a hotspot while in those freeroam events. This information also changes dynamically depending on your previous choices, current stats, etc, so keep that in mind. I thought of capture some teaser pics and writing descriptions but realized that wouldn't portray the feature properly so I made a quick video teaser.
This video teaser highlights the "Hover Info" category while in freeroam. The end of the video highlights a few other new features such as the menu choice opacity adjustment, etc.
Obviously this is not the most complex freeroam event to example but should give you an idea of the power that's going to be in your hands (if desired, it can always be turned off on the fly, in realtime of course). Here's an example of the dynamic guide working even on the hotspots:
That's it for now, I'm busy at it and enjoying a Crown & Coke as usual.
Regards and have a good one,
- Sancho
