Welcome to "Unofficial Revival" version 4.1

"My heart stays in Hellgate."
                            Kikina the templar

If you like Hellgate and want to remember a bit of old times, this mod is the best solution for you. Contains elements from many versions of the game, while maintaining the original gameplay.
Mod retains original skills, quests and monsters, but adds some things from early game concept (for example using implants), original online game (pets, dye kits, events..), game from test servers (new weapons, rings, many types of monsters), korean Hellgate Global (bosses, weapons) and ideas of members the Hellgateaus community (expanded stash, better monsters info, cheats..).
A description of all the changes is in the complete patch notes in the .rar package with mod.

4.1 Patch Notes
---------------

- Revival now have a Russian language support !!!
  After the failure of my another project to convert Revival texts into russian language (my russian-speaking associate has no time, again), i finally decided to make a translation on my own.
  I have processed the greater part of the text myself, armed only with my school russian language knowledge and online translators, with some smaller parts helped me Pawunia and Marcelka. What does it mean ? The translation is not good and may be ridiculous for a native Russian. But, it's still better than nothing for people who don't speak english.
  That is to say, no complaint will be accepted, only if you decide make a grammatical correction to the entire text. 
  It is about approximately one thousand lines of text with different lenght, in unicode text file with special format markers. Just for comparison: the original game contains around 15,000 lines of text.


- Revival now have a original new music on game credit screen !!!
  If you open credit screen in game, you now can hear a metal song "For the living" created as a tribute of game Hellgate London.
  The song comes from "Mindpatrol", a young Extreme Progressive Metal band from Luxembourg.

  https://www.facebook.com/mindpatrolband
  https://www.instagram.com/mindpatrolband

  Band members send a greeting to all Revival players:

             "Keep on slaying and see you at Murmur's place!"
                   Best regards, Luc and the Mindpatrol guys

  Thanks, guys, for permission for using this song. For technical reasons, the song is a bit shortened in the game, you can play it in full lenght here .
  People who don't like metal can deactivate the use of the song in the mod install menu.


New install options:
- Russian Tahoma Font - Replace default Excelsior fonts for Tahoma fonts in installations with russian language
  - font originaly used in game is not much good for viewing texts in Cyrillic, new font is better. Function has been taken from one older mod, author is "Evil_Good", thanks

- Multi Aura - Allow you activate every aura you learned at the same time
  - experimental function ported from Nagahaku mod, use it at your own risk. Author of this function is "Nagahaku", thanks

- Indestructible summoner elementals - Except force elementals, make all summoner elementals invincible. Force elementals cannot be indestructible, if they are to keep tanking function
 - Experimental function ported from Naga optionals mod, use it at your own risk. Author of this function is "Dank Rafft", thanks

- Faster Elementals - Make all elementals about 50% faster
 - Experimental function ported from Naga optionals mod, use it at your own risk. Author of this function is "Dank Rafft", thanks





For people who want to play online as well: "London 2038" project is in stable "public open" alpha stage. Its possible make on you computer dual installation of Hellgate and play both (London 2038 and Revival) simultaneously.
You must follow this instruction:

How play 2038 and revival together on one computer: 1. Install Hellgate London and both patches 2. Backup whole folder "Flagship Studios" with different name. 3. Instal revival 4. To backuped folder install 2038 files 5. Keep both folders in "program files". The version you want to play rename to "Flagship studios", the other may have an arbitrary name. Do not forget to run every version with the right loader inside folder...

News: Chat troll "Wollah_bee" is currently gagged in online game. But that doesn't mean he's not dangerous in Revival !

I predict this will come sooner or later
Was hoping more easier to instal the new mod, but I sure you this is worthy to try more than steam v.

FOR THE LIVING!

[Pepsson]

I am getting error with launcher - "error extracting modification to temporary directory".. Maybe problem with *.rar? Any idea? Could I install it manually somehow?

[Pepsson]

Solved. FOund out that *.rar has a *.zip insiede.. 

[Hellscream]

This is a fun mood! there's no balance.
But I understand now why: "Keep on slaying and see you at Murmur's place" lol Multi Aura x)

[Kikina the templar]

 
Velcome to Revival !

In fact, there IS balance for first difficulty, but only if you do not activate cheat modes in install menu.
At the end of normal difficulty you can farming for good gear, so nightmare difficulty can be beat with many ways, completely intentionally totally unbalanced.

I installed Hellgate: London for the first time in many years.  I found this patch, was delighted more work had been done on it. 

The second link is giving deceptive files that isn't Hellgate London and installs different kinds of software on your system.  Deceptive, because it claims to be Hellgate files.  I had to use the non-English site and figure that one out instead, that first site works fine once you figure out what buttons to push and type in the anti spam code. 

Came here because I found Hellgate Global on Steam and was deeply disappointed they still aren't attempting to fix the issues with their Tokyo addon.  I still haven't played it and couldn't even sign up when it was live previously (wouldn't accept any name I submitted no matter how ambiguous).  Sigh.....

If anyone has any information that would give me hope for the Steam version, let me know.....

Something about listening to that Hellgate tune on Steam made me really want to play this game, LOL.  I probably won't for now, playing the new Titan Quest version with a summons build (nature/dream) and also a D2 Eastern Sun dire wolves summon build, as well as Borderlands 2 with all DLC's (was on sale on Steam recently for 15 dollars and have never completed the game).  I am, however, delighted this site is still around and these mods are still supported!  When I get bored I'll know where to go.   

[Kikina the templar]

Thanks for info, i updated download links.

Steam version of Hellgate is port of online game "Hellgate global" with minimal changes made for singleplayer play and without bug tracking and fixing.
Revival no have maps and locations from game expansions (it doesn't concern items and bosses), but great attention was paid to gameplay.

[Kotaidis]

hey guys..got here after years so i say hi and thanks for not forgeting HL.. i actually came back to mod the game and play after i downloaded everything i need i am at the installation processes of the 4.1 revival i hit instal at the launcher and this comes up... "Can not Install, dependency sp_hellgate_1.10.180.3416_1.18074.70.4256 is missing" . Help plz

[Kikina the templar]

This error means that SP patch is not correcly installed, or is installed some wrong version. Try redownload SP patch from Hellgateaus and reinstall it.

[Kotaidis]

i did download what you said but there is another problem when i try installing the patches you said " cannot find hellgate london. Select Launcher exe from the game directory" i try finding game shortcut but another error pops up "Invalid or missing SKU"

[Kikina the templar]

"Invalid or missing SKU" is problem with region - versions of client and patches do not fit together or with install language.
It can only be that individual components cannot find each other.
I know from my own experience that on some computers Hellgate can't be installed to user defined place.
Try install game to default location.

[chaos0ne]

is there a Chance that we get a german Version of the mod?

[Kikina the templar]

Not for now.
I only know the basics of German language, we would first have to find someone who wanted to work on this project.

[Elsevier]

Howdy! Reinstalling this I noticed the newbie gun included into the package. It' cool and all that, but two thirds of the classes are ill-suited for gunning. A ring would've been better. Out of curiosity, how hard it would be to transfer the invincibility effect to a ring for someone who knows nothing about Hellgate modding?
