Sorry guys I've been very busy with real life stuff for a long time. Have been looking at hellfire again a bit lately though, in between playing diablo 3.
I'm planning on fixing up a few things and maybe adding a few more features. The negative attribute bug in particular is a game breaker for barbarians, but I think I have a fix for it based on the darkmodnotes. I haven't tested it yet though.
Anyways, since some people don't like having some of the extra stuff, I have also been thinking that I might split the mod into two version, one called 1.02 pure and one 1.02 plus.
Where the pure mod would just have the bug fixes, UDP network, unique item drops and hive/crypt bosses and plus would add in the multiple players on the minimap, warlord of blood etc as well. That way people that just want as pure as possible version of hellfire but with bug fixes and things can play that version. Anyway, would this be something that people would be interested in?
It probably wouldn't happen anytime soon but I'm hoping to tinker away on hellfire whenever I have a little bit of free time (which I have a bit more of now).
Also in response to Mordor's question; yes unique item drops are fixed. I spaced out the levels of the uniques of the same base types to give them more even chances of dropping. I also reordered the data tables properly so that all the rings etc can drop.
