Hey everyone.  Thanks for your ongoing support of Cataclysm--it's having enthuiastic players and modders that make creating a game worth it.
Cataclysm is, and always will be, free and open-source.  However, if you would like to encourage me to put more of my free time into Cataclysm, a donation is a great way to do so.
I've resisted the idea of accepting donations for Cataclysm for a long time, but the fact is I'm a starving artist, and would really appreciate it if you would show your support by making a small contribution to the game.  The more money I receive through donations, the more time I'll be able to put into Cataclysm--hey, maybe one day I'll be able to do like Bay 12 and develop Cataclysm full-time!
You can donate using the PayPal button at WhalesDev.com.  Thanks again for all your support.  I'll be keeping track of who donates, and will put up a Special Thanks section in the game--I'm also toying with the idea of putting statues to contributors in in-game parks, though we'll see what the response looks like before I commit to that.  Thank you so much for playing!

As soon as I get some spare cash, i'll donate some money.

Is the random hostile manhack thing a bug or is it some kind of thing saying your skill is too low and you accidently turn it hostile trying to activate it?

The latter.  Your roll is (a random number between 0 and INT/2) + half your electronics skill + your computer skill.  The difficulty roll is a random number between 0 and 4.  If the difficulty roll is better than your roll, the manhack is hostile.  A computer skill of 4, or computer 3 + electronics 2, or computer 2 + electronics 4, etc. will guarantee friendly manhacks.

I gave 2 bucks. I'd give more but my card's empty.
(Hell, I'll actually redonate once I refill it. Because great game.)

As for doing it full-time, I doubt it. It'd be hard to achieve the same success DF has. Still, we're here to support ya.

(and if you do that special thanks, I'm the apocalypse.comes one. Had to use my old account since PP only allows one account per card.)

EDIT: Ah, so that's where the wiki was moved. I still needed to finish up the firearms.

[Lolzwheejars]

Where can I find the wiki?

Edit: Neva mind! Found it.

Thanks so much!  I realize full-time development is a pipe dream, that was meant in jest (mostly)
When you donated, was there a "comment" section?  I was hoping people could use that to let me know how they'd like to be credited.

Yeah, there was a section that you could write "instructions" to the reciever. I guess this would work.

Can someone get me a guide to make a pre-made char?

I think he means how to make his own presets.
For which you need do change the code itself.

*Facepalm* I want to MAKE one. Not select one.
Edit:

Yes, I know.

[GlyphGryph]

If you... make one... then its not... pre... made... *confused*

[Lolzwheejars]

Well if you make it and then create a new character later it's pre-made?

[FunctionZero]

Well, the presets seem to be located in newcharacter.cpp.

They're just stat-based though, might be a bit harder to change traits. But still possible.
