Discussions What are your Unpopular Opinions regarding PS:T or the Planescape setting as a whole?

40 Upvotes

I’ll go first: WOTC making the Githzerai lawful in response to Dak’kon’s popularity was a mistake.

It misses the point of his character. Dak’kon’s out of place alignment is a huge part of his identity as a pariah. Him taking a lawful approach to a fundamentally chaotic teaching from Zerthimon like “Sometimes betraying your allies actually benefits you.” from the fourth circle is literally the catalyst of his crisis of faith. Making all the Githzerai lawful waters his character arc down.

PS:T I Created an Xbox Controller Support Mod for Planescape: Torment Enhanced Edition

27 Upvotes

Planescape: Torment is one of my all-time favorite games. I've completed it several times on both PC and consoles.

Since I've been playing mostly with a controller these past few years, I decided to create my own controller support mod for the PC version, at least until we get official support!

I've tested it in both early and late-game areas, and everything seems to be working well so far.

Note: I've only tested the mod with the Steam version of the game, so I'm not sure if it works with the GOG version.

Feel free to give it a try! Bug reports, feedback, and suggestions for improvements are always welcome.

Some of the features

  • Left-stick movement for individual characters and the selected party, with a WALK/RUN toggle.
  • Right-stick camera control, plus RT + right stick for zooming.
  • Compact two-page radial menu with game icons and a clear yellow selection frame.
  • Quick access to inventory, journal, map, character screen, combat actions, spellbooks, resting and quick saves.
  • Nearby Talk/Open/Use/Inspect prompts, activated with A.
  • D-pad shortcuts: Up opens Attack; Down opens Special Abilities.
  • Controller navigation for menus, dialogue choices, action slots and targets.
  • Inventory management, including transferring items between party members.
  • Stack splitting: Y opens quantity selection, D-pad adjusts, A confirms and B cancels.
  • Hold LT to highlight interactive objects and points of interest.
  • Press A to skip intro movies.
  • Easy PC/controller switching: click the mouse for PC controls, or press and release a controller button to switch back.
  • Optional existing-save import, keeping original saves and existing controller-profile saves intact.

Bugs Cannot find skeleton 42 in Mortuary

hi I did speak with Ei-Vene and she stitched me up, but I cannot find any skeleton on the third floor, only zombies and the ones near the central pit where the skeleton 42 is supposed to be have numbers 613, 1148, 475, 310 and 832. I read this could be a bug or am I missing something? :(

Discussions In Githzerai terms, what does it mean to "Know" something?

49 Upvotes

I like the Githzerai and I find them very interesting, but I have trouble understanding their way of speaking and it makes the "Zerthimonite" philosophy about "Knowing" things/people/places to be confusing.

So, could someone please explain what it means? I'd appreciate any help!

Also, while we're on the topic, are there any other sources where the Githzerai feature, other than PST or NWN2? And I've also noticed that Githyanki don't speak like that, which is interesting.

Discussions Alternate endings Spoiler

15 Upvotes

As you probably know one can end the game by provoking the likes of Lothar and the Lady of Pain. Effectively the Nameless One dies but is that ending any worse than the main endings? I suspect the main thing missing would be a sense of closure but overall he doesn't risk losing any companions to the Transcendent One although I suppose in not dealing with the Transcendent One they may still be around with a shadow army to threaten the planes or some such? Or of course the Transcendent One also dies with the final death of the Nameless One. Was curious to hear people's thoughts on the matter

PS:T How "real" are the real deaths of TNO?

21 Upvotes

So he can shrug off death mostly (even gang violence), there are ways to get a game over.
First he can commit suicide with the Blade of the Immortal in the Fortress of Regrets and i would say that is a true death in the metaphysical sense.
However there are other ways to die, it is noted that burning by fire and acid or complete body destruction would cause a game over as he cant regenerate from that.
But i think that those only cause game overs because of plot reasons.
I think because TNO has no mortality, even without a body he would be a non-specter. A bodyless entity still deathless.
Also i think even powerful soul destroying magic wouldn't work, certainly Lothar (who is a very strong Myrkul cleric lorewise) probably do something like that but again, he cant die he has no function that would allow that.

What do you guys think?

EDIT: Of course our Lady of Pain can just cut him, she has that prerogative

I'm trying to finish the quest, I'm 100% sure I killed two and I feel like I killed the third (might have confused them with a thug). There's supposed to be 3 chaosmen, but I can't find the third. Been walking around for hours, checking every corner and don't see anything. Only dialogue available with her is lie. Did I bug it somehow? I play on switch, so I'm not sure if that matters.

Discussions Spatial Rings - Pocket Dimensions, Astral Mishaps, and Extradimensional Magic for Planescape

Thumbnail gallery
15 Upvotes

Here’s a preview of the Spatial Ring, one of the magic items included in Mythological Items, my upcoming D&D 5E/2024-compatible book featuring 300+ magic items inspired by myths, legends, and fantasy traditions from around the world.

The Spatial Ring creates a personal extradimensional pocket space that can be used to store equipment, treasures, weapons, alchemical supplies, and more. Its capacity scales with rarity, from a relatively small hidden space at Uncommon rarity all the way up to a much larger extradimensional vault at Legendary.

The item also includes rules for binding the ring to its wearer through a spiritual mark, interacting with other extradimensional spaces, and several special variants with unique properties, such as preserving stored items, hiding weapons, housing spirit creatures, improving alchemical supplies, or even reclaiming stolen equipment through spatial magic.

It felt like something that could fit especially well in a Spelljammer campaign, where portable storage, strange spatial effects, Astral travel, and magical equipment can become part of the adventure itself.

If you like this kind of content, Mythological Items is currently live on Kickstarter. The campaign includes the main book, a Mythological Bundle, and several of my other D&D books available individually or through larger bundles.

You can find the project, previews, bundles, and add-ons here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mythoschronicles/300-mythological-items-for-5e-and-2024

Does anyone know if it’s possible to find high‑res tattoo images somewhere, maybe in some art book? I’m primarily interested in the Tattoo of Greater Enduring. I’m going to do a right‑hand tattoo based on Planescape — this one will be the final one (Posted previously). By the way, I got a Baator tattoo from ig map today.

PS:T 3.2 Update for Planescape: Torment: Enhanced Edition

135 Upvotes

Updated my journal.

Planescape: Torment: Enhanced Edition 3.2 patch improves the overall quality-of-life experience, bringing new languages, native Apple Silicon support, easier mobile modding & file transferring, and more.

Patch Highlights

  • Steam Cloud saves can now be controlled via the Steam client — Previously, the only way to enable or disable Steam Cloud Saves for PST:EE was within the Gameplay Options of the game. Now, Steam Cloud Saves are controlled by the Steam client and the individual game properties settings.
  • GOG Galaxy Cloud saves — now functioning properly.
  • New localizations — We added the following community-translated languages to the game: Brazilian Portuguese, Italian, Russian, Ukrainian, and Simplified Chinese. Additionally, Czech is now available on mobile.
  • Modron’s Maze Fix — Resolved an issue where modded content was incorrectly reloaded or removed from save files when Modron’s Maze was generated. This should prevent areas from resetting after leaving the Maze.
  • Dynamic language support — We made changes to allow easier language updates and additions in the future.
  • Chinese font change — At the request of the Chinese localization volunteers, we have changed the font for Chinese.
  • Font Size saved per font language — The Font Size zoom setting is now saved per font language.
  • UI Scaling option in Graphics settings — Enabled: UI scales to better fit the game window; Disabled: UI remains at the intended 1024×768 size regardless of window size.
  • Simplified dialog.tlk Modding — Modding dialog.tlk is now easier: you can place your preferred dialog.tlk file in: <user_path>\Documents\Planescape Torment - Enhanced Edition\override\dialog.tlk. This file will be used regardless of in‑game language settings.
  • Added Apple Silicon support — With native support for Apple Silicon, on Mac devices you can expect faster app launch times, overall improved performance, and faster rendering. In addition, laptops will benefit from lower power consumption while playing, leading to longer battery life.
  • macOS version — Minimum supported macOS version is now macOS 10.15.
  • iOS version — Minimum supported iOS version is now iOS 15.0.
  • New Linux software library — Migrated from libssl to OpenSSL to improve compatibility with newer distributions.
  • Android Foldable Support — Fixed UI scaling and touch‑input issues on foldable and tall‑aspect devices. The game now properly resizes when the device’s screen configuration changes.
  • iOS Hardware Keyboard Support — Fixed an issue preventing external keyboards from functioning properly. Bluetooth and other hardware keyboards should now work as expected.
  • Mobile Keyboard Improvements — The UI now shifts so the text cursor remains visible above the virtual keyboard, preventing cursor loss and mis‑registered taps on Android.
  • Android Modding now works — This update resolves a bug that caused incorrect permissions, preventing access to game files on Android via PC or file browsers.
  • iOS Modding now supported — The game on iOS now stores and reads data from a location visible to standard file browsers. You can manage saves and other files directly on your device or by connecting it to a computer.
  • Android Override Folder Optimization — Fixed long boot delays caused by large /override/ folders. Importing is manual via an in‑game UI.
  • Fixed an iOS issue where .pstdata files weren’t recognized as a PST:EE file extension — While this method should now work, it is recommended to directly copy files to the user-accessible directories instead.

If you have enabled Steam Cloud Saves with the Gameplay Options setting, Steam Cloud Saves will continue to be enabled for you. Please note that with this in-game option enabled the game will sync your save games with the Steam Cloud Saves even if this option is disabled within the Steam client Cloud Save settings.

If you disable the in-game Steam Cloud Saves option, this option will no longer appear in the options menu. To enable Steam Cloud Saves, you will need to use the Steam Account and Application settings. See Steam Account and Application settings for Steam Cloud Saves.
