We just released Deus Ex Randomizer v3.4.1, including recent big updates for the Zero Rando modes (no randomization modes). One of the biggest updates is putting all of our balance changes behind toggles - off by default in Zero Rando mode, but enabled in Zero Rando Plus by default.

  • Vanilla Fixer: No gameplay changes, just compatibility fixes. Our installer ensures a smooth, battle-tested setup for modern systems with just a few clicks, inherited from Deus Ex Randomizer. Automatically installs Kentie's Launcher, D3D10 and other renderers, DXVK, Engine.dll fix for high framerates, and config tweaks.
  • Zero Rando: The pure Deus Ex experience - with no randomization, just essential bug fixes and optional QoL improvements from DXRando.
  • Zero Rando Plus: Same as Zero Rando, but with balance changes enabled (which you can still customize in the Rando ➜ Gameplay menu).

This is a fresh update, so if you spot anything that shouldn’t be enabled in Zero Rando, let us know! We're still constantly updating all of these game modes and the Randomizer.

Download DXRandoInstaller.exe in the Assets section under the changelog or download from Mods4Ever.com. It is safe to update in the middle of a playthrough.

Use vanilla/GOTY (optionally with Lay D Denton) to get all of the Randomizer's features, best QoL improvements, and the most polished experience. Our installer has an option to install Lay D Denton for you automatically. We also support Revision, GMDX, HX, and Vanilla? Madder.

If you're experiencing objects warping and drawing on top of each other incorrectly when using the D3D10 renderer, you need to install the 2010 x86 Visual C++ Redistributable package, which you can get from Microsoft here. Alternatively, you can use the D3D9 or OpenGL renderer (and check the Rando ➜ Visuals menu for Brightness Boost).

it's just painted black I guess?

https://youtu.be/oSoYenJ7mkY?t=169

as seen in the game: https://youtu.be/9WcD7ZDTYyo?t=84

notice the pattern of the arrow keys, the up and down keys to the right of the main arrow keys, and the top row is somewhat visible too but much darker, you can see the last 3 keys on the top row are spaced apart from the rest

 

just use ScummVM to play T7G and T11H

New Game Modes

  • Mr. Page's Mean Bingo Machine: A new mode where you play through the whole game, but must complete a set number of bingo lines before being allowed to progress to the next mission. Once you get to the next mission, you are given a new bingo board!
    • Special handling for Anna and Walt in Mean Bingo Machine
      • Since they can be difficult to avoid killing, they needed special care to reduce impossible bingo goals on future mission bingo boards
      • 50% chance for Anna to be deleted from Mission 4, and Walt from Mission 14, so the bingo goals to kill them on a future board would always be possible
      • The other 50% chance leaves them but bans the goal from appearing on the future bingo boards
  • One Item Mode: Our new dumbest game mode! All items in a map will be replaced with a single type of item (eg. all flares, all biocells, or all beers)

Major Changes

  • Give the security computer in Mission 5 MJ12 Lab with Paul's camera the special computer skin, since it reveals Paul's randomized location
  • Aug Canisters now show the aug location in the description and also show the stats and description of the augs contained within
  • Augs can now receive randomized slots (so speed can be an eye aug)
    • On NG+, augs are first removed based on newly assigned slots, then more get removed only if you didn't lose enough already
    • Setting is a % chance for each aug to be assigned a new random slot (100% means all augs will have a randomly assigned slot, 50% means half will retain their original slot)
  • Deus Ex: Revision support is massively improved as a whole (see below)
  • Fixed issue with bingo goal scaling when changing Bingo Duration in the Advanced Settings
  • Many fixes for bingo goals and mid-mission starts

Major Deus Ex: Revision Changes

  • Music Randomization is now supported for the Revision and PS2 soundtracks!
  • Added "Goal Locations" button to Revision goals screen
  • Hacking Computers in Revision now uses energy (and has the Use Biocell button)
  • Fixed Zombie respawning for Revision-modified MJ12 Troops
  • Fixed Datacubes not being shuffled in Revision
  • Datacubes now have defined rules in Revision (should ensure datacubes are shuffled into "safe" locations before the location they're needed)
  • Area 51 Bunker vent entrance is now harder, like in Vanilla Randomizer:
    • The door on the top of the vent is locked
    • The password on the security computer has been changed (and a datacube added with the password)
    • The elevator starts at the bottom
    • The elevator call button has been replaced with a keypad (and a datacube added with the code)
    • Many goal randomization changes for Revision

And much more! See the full change log here!
