Divinity 2 original sin guide1/7/2024 ![]() ![]() Set Everything on Fire: Combat in this game is about controlling the environment and exploiting enemy weakness. Try to fight guys at your level if you can, especially while you get used to combat’s finer (or dirtier) tricks. Two levels and you may as well flee, unless you have iron-clad tactics. If you find yourself going up against a group just one level higher, you’re in trouble. Level differences mean a lot in Original Sin. Tactical Retreat: It’s fine to run away from a fight and come back later. Out in the West you’ll find level 3 undead enemies that you should be able to cope with. Leaving by the other routes is like doing the Graveyard first. This game is kind of like Dark Souls in that it is just about possible to deviate from the “intended” path, but the North-West-ish gate in Cyseal is the Undead Burg equivalent. If you find yourself on an orc-infested beach, you went the wrong way. Make sure it’s the gate in town and not the harbour one. Head out of the West (or North-West-ish) gate. Sallying Forth: When you’re level 3 (or near enough) and have a party of four, you’re ready to leave town. This helps when looking for smaller objects like keys. Hold ALT to highlight stuff of interest in the nearby area. NPCs can be easily distracted by talking to them with one of your party members (making them face away from whatever you want to nab,) giving you the perfect window of opportunity. You’ll make a decent amount of cash from selling (or bartering) these to various vendors. If you’re low on money steal plates, steal goblets and steal artwork. Put aside any moral disagreements you may have and claim that five-fingered discount everywhere. The Secret Ingredient is Crime: Speaking of stealing, do this all the time. You can leave by moving one of the paintings to reveal a door switch. This place is full of artwork to steal and sell, plus a bit of other loot. For gameplay features programming, Lua is much more concise than Osiris.Grave Tidings: If you need some level two enemies to beat up for some added experience, there’s a hidden tunnel in the graveyard (dig up the biggest mound of dirt with the nearby shovel.) Go south in this tunnel where the road forks (north will lead you to a bucket and a well outside of town,) and you’ll emerge out inside the abandoned Cyseal general store. Lua has many advantages over Osiris since the extender makes available a lot of functions that are not usable in Osiris. Using it in DOS2 requires a small setup described here : It is widely known for its usage in games modding (World of Warcraft, Garry’s Mod, Roblox, …) and is easy to use. ![]() Lua is a procedural programming language with possibility for OOP design. ![]() It is somewhat similar to Osiris syntax-wise, but it works in its own way. However, it is very inefficient for programming gameplay features.īehavior scripting is tied to items and characters of the game. It works with statements and databases, which is great for designing quests. Osiris is a declarative language which makes it very different from the way most common programming languages work. (Note : the script extender adds new Osiris calls, event and queries) Norbyte’s script extender adds support for a 3rd language : Lua. Q: What scripting languages are used in the Divinity Engine 2 ?A: It uses 2 scripting languages : Osiris, used for Story scripting, and a no-named language we generally refer to as “Behavior scripting”. Make sure to regularly backup your project files, especially for maps.LaughingLeader’s Source control generator can do it very easily for you: Public : contains the rest (stats, resources, behavior scripts, …).Project : contains the project metadata.Mods : contains maps data and story scripts (+lua scripts).Nobody wants to help lazy bums so if someone catches you copy-pasting code/resource an experienced modder gave you without working it, forget about looking for more help. When you ask for help, make sure you show that you have searched and worked on your side. Then if you’re really stuck after doing that work, I will gladly help you.” Search for a solution for 15 to 30 minutes, make sure to dig the available resources you have or look for some you may have missed.
