3.0 Alpha

Is currently available for testing in Discord.

Patron Reward DropBox links will be updated tonight.

Title.

More content will be added to the DropBox that contains your patron rewards. If you're not a member of the Discord server, please PM me for your links.

Thank you for your support, I suddenly grew sick so it delayed the uploads.

Concerning the Switch (Details inside, you might be surprised)

In short, porting (or recreating) World Difficulty for the Switch is a possibility. The largest limitation will be on the end users applying my content to their copy of the game. I do run a tech support Discord server of over 1000 members, but making an attempt to hand walkthrough (possibly) so many people is a very tedious and time consuming undertaking.

It would also mean I would have 6 versions of World Difficulty to maintain. This is an alert to anyone interested in the Switch editi...

3.0 Progress

Encounter example.

WD 3.0 Patron Release in a few days.

Topic. I'd like to get the current build of 3.0 (in the works for 5 months!) For feedback. It will be uploaded to your current patron reward link. It will be labeled "3.0 BETA Test File". This is not a complete install. It will need to be installed over 2.0 (The patron version not the live version.) 

Keep in mind this is not complete! Keep a backup! You should be able to use this for a full playthrough, so don't worry about only testing for 10 minutes and ...

The ever elusive 3.0 BETA tuning.

This is the first look at the BETA test for 3.0 and an attempt to balance the level 200 version of World Difficulty by Lefein from level 1 to level 200. It's simple to make something that "works" for level 200, but it's a whole other beast to create something that is actually balanced correctly for every leveling bracket. This is where we are now.

Thank you for your support,

Lefein & Sheryl

Patreon and it's new interface.

I'm still trying to learn this new interface and all the new features in Patreon. I apologize for no posts. Per the usual, things are getting a bit worse. We just found out my friend's newborn, could have neonatal lupus. He's had several birth defects, and it's possible they're all related.  

That is the reason I have suddenly been away from my work this week. That was quite the blow. As those of you who have supported me awhile know, all of this; All my work is for her and her fam...

2.0 release finally eminent.

Topic. 

The last of the bugs are being worked out as I post this. Thank you all for your support, and I truly hope you all enjoy it. If there is another delay for unforeseen bugs I will update everyone here.

World Difficulty 2.0 Teaser Trailer

I am not the creator of this video. (I am the creator of the game content on display in this video)

It's about time for an update.

I apologize for the lack of posts. My friends child has been put into physical therapy twice a week for the next year. I'm not going to go into all of their personal business, just things have not improved.

The WD 2.0 trailer is in the works now, I look forward to everyone seeing what's in store for them. Because the launch version of 2.0 is different from the patron version, I've had to build it again. Which of course, caused bugs all over. Which I am currently working on. I am expandi...

Happy Christmas to my Patrons. A small token of my gratitude. (Skyrim LE Content)

I have a gift for you all for Christmas. I am a mod author, so it will be in the form of content. I used the assets from two mods, and I combined them into something new. This is not for the public, this is just something for all of you. I hope you like them.

A Happy Christmas to you all, or a Happy Holiday Season if you celebrate differently. 

The links can be found in the Patrons section of Discord.

Day after deadline.

I'm getting a crash with the Chimera. Something about hitting the tail with magic is causing a crash. Once that crash issue is resolved, 3.0 will be uploaded to everyone. I'm sorry for the delay, I was hoping to have it out by the 15th.

This is only a short update, I'm in the middle of working on it right now.

Skyrim (Normal+SE) Imperial Follower WiP

This is something I worked on early this week while parsing and compiling WD patches. It's part of a larger package of followers. It turned out better than I thought it might, so I wanted to share it with my budding community.

Just another example of some of the types on content I can create.

- Lefein

I'd like to share some of the other projects I've created and or worked on.

This is an update to a Skyrim ENB I've worked on for years. The newest ENB binaries were released so I am once again keeping this up to date. I only work on outside projects when I cannot work on my support projects (WD) for some reason.

Because I am so well known for my DDDA content some people may think that is the only thing I work on. I have a huge mod library, there are certain tier rewards that open my private library as a reward. I also have a large library of otherwise unobtainable con...

World Difficulty 3.0 . . . wait what?

My Patrons will get a gift from me hopefully before Christmas. 

World Difficulty 3.0 will be level 200 balanced. This is never going to be released to the public. I never intended to create a public level 200 version.

However with 2.0 nearing a possible release, I want to make sure my supporters get a something extra special.

Thank you,

Lefein

A request to share, not give.

This Patreon exists to raise money for my best friend. Everything raised is hers. Anyone who is a Patron, is already supporting her. I am posting this here as a request for anyone who sees this to share it for us on any social media you have access to.

Anyone who does, Patron or not will get access to the final version of 2.0.

Thank you, each and everyone of you for your support. No, frankly we might not make it out of the pinch this time. That doesn't mean I don't appreciate each of you...

My Private Collection.

These are wallpapers from my personal collection. If you see it in the wallpapers it's something from my collection. I don't have an online work portfolio so this will have to do for now.

Incoming patch for 2.0

Posting a null patch here for Chimera.

https://www.mediafire.com/file/cp2uw3beuq5b3lp/Null_Patch.rar/file

This will revert the Chimera in 2.0 until I find an amenable repair option for the accidental spawn of hell I created.

The Chimera Nightmare.

The recent enemy expansion is in need of a Chimera patch. The problem is, a single enemy has devoured 8 hours of time, and I am no closer to a patch the quality of which I am willing to release.

If you're using the 2.0 enemy expansion, you can use the Chimera provided. However, if it is too much for you to want to deal with, restore the 1.5 version of the Chimera files as a default. I will not stop working on a replacement until such time that I have created one of that meets the standard of q...

World Difficulty 2.0 Stream Edition Enemy Expansion (Patron Reward)

The World Difficulty 2.0 Stream Edition Expansion pack links can be found in the next post. I apologize these took so long. I ran into some personal difficulties while working on them.

These files are not play tested, however they've all been load tested, this means I have loaded them and they will not cause you to crash on encounter. These files are strictly intended for the most powerful Arisen.

Not all of the files have been updated to this version. This is only an expansion to the ex...

Delay

Due to a personal problem, files will have a bit of a delay. I'll get them out as soon as possible. I promise there won't be a major delay.

Patron Rewards:

As you know there is currently a link to one of the rewards available to Patrons only. I did this because I am currently expanding the "Patron's Package". Unlike the public, you're getting the other half of the 2.0 enemy packages making just your enemies complete 2.0 and go.

A lot of people who wanted to see the stream and get the files, couldn't. This is a second chance for those people to get them. I just wanted my Patrons to know that I will always work to provide you valu...

To my Patrons. All of my live work of the past 4 days.

s. Including the long awaited Patron Only reward for the Everfall Version 2.

Everyone on stream had a fantastic time watching Hazmat die to my creations. I hope very much you will enjoy this as much as the audience did. This is a Patron only reward, and while I usually allow Patrons full permissions to share anything awarded to them, I request a small caveat. If you share this, please do it only to your Livestream audiences. (Stream the Content, make it available during your stream ...

Everything created will be provided to the audience as it was last night. There will also be some pieces of shared cosmetics and the like, links to videos that are unlisted about other projects I am working on, Desktop Wallpapers and the like. 

The shared content will be created during stream. ...

New Patrons, and this weeks event.

This is a quick thank you for everyone who participated in the Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen World Difficulty 2.0 event this evening. I want to give a special thank you to those who've just started supporting us, as you can see from the goals and the front page, or from the last several posts - There is no adequate thanks I can every provide.

This event will continue with more patches, more expansions, and more Livestreams with exclusive Download keys until Thursday. As usual all of the Patrons ...

Tonight the largest test and release in the history of my work will be conducted to the public!

I am throwing the doors open to you all tonight. Utilizing Discord, I am going to post the World Difficulty by Lefein 2.0 framework to Discord to the public. After posting it, I am will be unlocking the mod test area to everyone for the purpose of providing them content patches in real time while I am working on them. I am posting the alert from the server below:

 #mod-test-area will be opened to all members of this server while the Alpha Framework is posted. I w...

Critical Complaints in World Difficulty 1.5

I have received some critical complaints about WD 1.5. Enemies too easy, or along in the same vein. I am going to be looking into some of the fodder enemies to just see if there might be something I can possibly do to with those to strengthen them. I can't make any promises with the current workload and our life circumstances getting critical. WD 1.5 suffers from a one size fits all approach. 

If I tweak things and upset the already delicate balance, I could alienate players who already f...

Rewards update. Launch of World Difficulty Subreddit.
