ChemerBoy Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 Version 0.1.65 -------------- General - Significant Lane Creep AI changes * These all involve the assist trigger that causes the creeps to aggro you when you attack an enemy hero: 1. When a hero causes the assist trigger to go off, there is a 200ms delay before the creeps will turn and come at you 2. Creeps will chase for exactly 1600ms (down from 1800ms) 3. If a creep is in the middle of an attack animation but has not hit its attack impact point (600ms), it will de-aggro and stop its attack as long as you are out of it's short melee range * AKA: Creeps will not finish attacks they start on you if they hit the end of the trigger 4. A creep must deal damage before it can be called by the assist trigger again * This means if you tug, they must turn around and actually deal damage to a unit before it can chase again 5. You must be within 600 units of an enemy hero to cause the assist trigger to go off - Added a stringtable entry for Meatball - Updated the ramps to be better - Fixed a bunch of inconsistent in game messages that showing the incorrect killer/victim colors * Legion is now Red and Hellbourne is now Green - Kongor now has unitwalking by default * This fixes the exploits that caused him to be trapped in his lair - Updated Russian Stringtables - Added a Patch Notes button in place of the Create Account button on the main screen * This was a Mod, thanks to Thread 65344 and Sephinator - vid_meshGPUDeform false now works (only for openGL) - Fixed a bug where the "No Leaver" flag wasn't reset at the end of matches * This was causing players to see a message saying they were unable to join a game because they had too many leaves when selecting a server that was previously setup with the "No Leaver" game option. - Fixed the Pre-Query Filter button so it saves it's settings again - Added an "Official" icon to the game lobby when games are official - Updated "Invite to game" functionality to display all relevant game information Items (4) Barbed Armor - Fixed to actually return 80% damage (was returning 75%) Sacrificial Stone - Gains 25 health per charge - Gains .25 health regen per charge Portal Key - Cooldown lowered by 4 seconds Puzzlebox - Recipe now has a stock of 3 to start, with a recharge time of 10 minutes per recipe Heroes (6) Blacksmith - Slow on Flaming Hammer increased to 15,20,25,30 (from 10,15,20,25) - Flaming Hammer lowers magic armor by 2,3,4,5 of anyone it is on - Frenzy buff gives 7,14,21,28% cast speed as well Darklady - Updated effects for all abilities.

With the ability to customize game mode, region, and map preferences, as well as group up with players on or off your friends list, the new Matchmaking will not only make it much faster to find a game of HoN, but also maximize the fairness and quality of the match. - Playing Matchmaking rewards you with valuable Goblin Coins! Check out the new end-game scorescreen function after a Matchmaking game. - Matchmaking will be disabled initially, we'll enable it when we're ready to begin public testing on it this week.

Grimm's Crossing is a battlefield for the bloodthirsty. The terrain favors the cunning and aggressive, as hidden paths within the trees can provide a quick way to rout unsuspecting enemies. There is precious little territory to be contested over; battles are won and lost at frantic paces, often beginning and ending unexpectedly. - Features of the new map: * 2 lanes that are very close together * Only one set of towers outside of each base * Small, tightly packed map * Neutral creeps spawn only in the middle section of the map * No elevation at entrances into bases * 1 rune spawn location in the center * Towers' armor scales with number of players alive; Buildings have 100% of armor when all are alive, scaling to 0 armor when your entire team is dead. This is active if with both Casual and Normal mode on this map. * Twin teleporters for quick transit and fun surprises * It's a winter wonderland! Try the snow weather on this map! == New Game Mode: Casual Mode == - This entirely new mode of play will provide new HoN players and casual gamers with a more “fun,” less punishing way to learn and play HoN.

This means that at the beginning, players level up a lot faster than in Normal Mode, but in the mid and late game they level up at about the same rate as in Normal Mode. * Buyback costs are at 1.75x normal mode values * Towers' armor scales with number of players alive; Buildings have 100% of armor when all are alive, scaling to 0 armor when your entire team is dead. == New Interface Features == - We have revamped the in-game interface to be more dynamic, informative, and efficient. - Enhancements include: * Advanced mini-map interaction. Try hovering over heroes, buildings, or wards! * Pull down tabs in the upper right for intuitive access to vote functions and game options * Graphic kill messages for feedback when you net a kill in the upper left. * A gold counter to see the breakdown of your gold earnings from different sources. Hover your mouse over your gold count to see the exact breakdown! * Experience range indicators to mark enemies within the experience gain range. You will notice a small purple diamond next a creep's health bar when you are in range and a purple diamond effect will play when they die if you got experience. * Context-sensitive pings to highlight the object and send out alert messages to allies. Try Alt+Clicking an ally, enemy, or building. * A hover-over inventory to allow for quicker inventory feedback on allies and enemies. Hover over an enemy to quickly see their inventory. == BETA Map Editor == - With the exact same tool that we used to make HoN, users can now create and edit maps for enhanced single-player experiences. Users who are inspired to create multi-player maps can submit their map designs to the HoN DREAM website for potential inclusion in HoN. Also, in conjunction with scripting manipulation, players can create their own custom modes. - This is still a BETA version of the Map Editor, and as such still has features to be added, polish to be done, and bugs to be fixed. Keep this in mind! - To open the editor, use the editor.bat file in your HoN directory or re-install the game and it will automatically add a shortcut to your start menu as well == Weather Effects == - A storm has arrived on Newerth with HoN 2.0 and it shows! Change the weather of the map you are in at any time through the Options menu and feel free to sing in the rain. - Players can set their preferred weather effect in the interface options or with a chat command. Right now we support "Rain" and "Snow". The default is "Off". - Chat commands are as follows: * /weather * /weather None * /weather Rain * /weather Snow - We included a text file with instructions on how to make your own weather effects in the HoN directory == New Item: Spellshards == - It's time for the magic users of Newerth to show their true power! With Spellshards, they can pierce the defenses of the enemy and burn them to a crisp that much faster. - The wielder's spells ignore a portion of their enemy's magic armor, causing increased magic damage. - After obtaining this item, the recipe may be re-purchased to upgrade it. Can be upgraded two additional times. - Components: Great Arcana (1675) + Recipe (1000) - Stats: * 6 Intelligence * 17 Damage * 10 Attack Speed * 3/6/9% Cooldown Reduction * 75% Mana Regeneration * Causes any Magic damage you deal to ignore 2/4/6 of your target's Magic Armor. This effect can never cause their magic armor to go below 0. - Note: The item "Trophy Belt" did not make it into this patch. == Nemesis and Payback == - Beat down an opponent hard enough and you will become their Nemesis! Be careful, though, for payback is sweet revenge. - A 'Nemesis' against an opponent is gained when you kill them 4 times in a row without them killing or assisting in a kill against you. - A 'Payback' is given when you kill or help kill your Nemesis. == New Music == - Newerth's citizens, every now and then, take the time away from the battlefield to learn new musical scores. They have brought us six new songs to encourage us in battle! - New songs: * The Missing Rune * Hope * From The Depths They Rose * The Chase * Overrun Lane * Kongor's Lair - Each map now has a custom music soundtrack that plays songs in a pre-determined order. - In addition, several music related bugs were fixed: * Fixed music looping * Fixed playlist looping * Fixed music fade-out/fade-in * When a music track is stopped, it defaults to fading out * Music is now streamed rather than loaded upfront.

(ie. only after the players are loaded into the map can they call these.) - If displaying chat timestamps were enabled in game, various game messages sent to both teams were not being timestamped (disconnects, Kongor kills, Barracks destruction, etc).

Min/Max PSR games will appear normally as they would in the game browser and other players may join a game if their PSR falls within 2% of the range the game server Min/Max PSR is set to. (This means a player with 1471 PSR should be able to make it into a game marked Min 1500, and a 1734 player would be able to join a game marked as Max 1700, but those are the very edge of the 2% tolerance, so anything higher or lower would be rejected.) - Games outside of a player's PSR range are grayed out in the game browser similar to the way "No Leaver" games appear to a player with leaver status. If no range is specified when the game is created then no range is enforced. If a player is invited to a game, the server ignores the PSR restrictions for them allowing friends to play in games they may not normally be able to be playing - Added Min/Max PSR to the /gi or /gameinfo commands - The players PSR is now retrieved stored locally on the client when logging in, and is accessible through the UI_CMD() GetPSR() - Removed the ticks, grinds, and blips and whatnot that were playing when the game started up - Added an option "Disable Background Effects" that allows users to toggle whether or not all the background lobby effects and animations are played.

You now must request friendship before someone is actually added as your friend. * You can request friends when offline and they will get the notifications upon logging in, and approve at their convenience * We might have to wipe current friends lists at some point in the future for this to work correctly. - Added new search support for filtering games by name: * Added feature to allow players to type in multiple search phrases. By typing a search phrase and adding a ?|? the client will distinguish one phrase from another. The browser will then search the available games and show any games showing any one of the phrases separated by a "|". * Added feature to allow players to exclude certain games based on the search phrase. By typing in a "-" at the beginning of the search phrase the client will automatically filter any games with "Phrase" to not show up. Note that exclusion of search terms takes precedence over inclusion. (Excluding a term, and then trying to include the same term will cause it not to appear, ie ?noobs|-noobs?) * The "|" and "-" can be escaped with a "\" should the player want to search on a game with the pipe or hyphen in it. * All searches are color and case insensitive, and the order that the search phrases are entered have no effect on how they will display.

Kaurin Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 Version 2.0.18 ------------- Reverted creep stacking mechanism to allow for 2 stacks (3 camps total) *The change was mistakenly patched into the retail client. We are, however, considering such a change as part of a package of changes aimed at shifting the focus of play away from funneling all of a team's resources into one carry.
