Here is a script I use -> https://www.upload.ee/files/15387350/LO ... t.rar.html

It is downloaded from somewhere, I edited it a bit and for me its working. You can laso edit it (if you know how) by opening .bat file with any text editor program.

For me it will play sound (alert.wav) when memory usage goes over 2850MB and it will reset in case memory usage goes below 2300 (also for purpose when game is restarted). You can test it if you lower these values temporary or permanently in the .bat file.

Who want can make it better and share it with us. :P

I Just got to Ogre Chieftan and WTF!!
Can I damage his 3 fire minions at all to just fight him solo?
Yes, it checks memory usage of grimrock game process. When it exceeds my set value it will notify me. It seems that game needs some free memory while creating save file and I keep some part of memory free for save process.

It still dont like to work very well because with this mod it is not recommended to keep game AFK or minimized for too long time. In this case memory usage may not increase, but something else gonna happen which causes crash. So I keep game closed when not playing.

Ogre chieftan? Which area? Maybe use force fields? :D
I think quick saves take more so I have never used them.

The ogre Chieftain was in Sacred Grove. You fight the first round then a new round of whoop ass spawns and 3 of them are invulnerable. it is hard core mode with auras too.

DId you get to iron Temple?

If I go the Rav Pass or Cave way will it block any quests? I know the Rav Pass is utter madness with the ambush but just checking if anything can break.

Can you send me the script or app that is watching your memory for you?

Aa, under jungle ogres. Yeah, they are hard. For me I found a pretty good spot at the NE corner, where are 2 exits. Force fields for exits.

I have found all maps. Few secrets are not found yet. Script is written in my previous post.

Are those ogres killable the flame ones?
And did you fight the ambush near pass or avoid it?
Think this game needs some balancing by a lot. Too many fights are just too much.

I dont remember was it ethereal or pure weapon to attack them. I recommend to skip this fight as long as you can. Last ogres I fought this way that I have chosen closed corner. Then I let them come around this corner, put into force fields and throw the most powerful bombs (cover 4 squares) on them. And when they were weaker I throw smaller bombs.

But this fight is one of the hardest one. I think it is possible to get better weapons for this and maybe try to get more skills too. Or be ready to spend all bombs and probably many healing crystals.

I still recommend to skip it right now maybe ... idk.

Is there a place to buy gold keys?

Inside the sewer area I am missing a single key. Is this a gold key or a sewer key and is it in the sewer or do I get it later?

In Styr Jungle a secret area has a chest has a note that has a question mark on it. I notice how things are flipped in chest but do not understand the riddle here?

No, you cant buy any gold key.

Things are flipped in the chest? How? I have not solved it. I thought it looks like a incubator for eggs with force field but my ideas ended with that ...

SpoilerShow
They are upside down or mirrored. Place a note on floor regular and then place in chest. You can see it is upside down and flipped. I do not understand it so far. And the dragons just burn me. Maybe there is a mirror in game? To open force field place something between 2 candles nearby.
Did you manage to open all doors in Mael Tael Sewers?
How about below Dwarven area there is another key door and one in Iron Temple?
Did you manage to get the necklace hidden in Temple? I see the plate I see the door open but can not throw anything that presses the plate down.
