If you don't know what Deus Ex Randomizer is, then here's our old trailer which shows a breakdown of how it works:
See the full README here. Also check out our Discord and Mods4Ever.com
Download DXRandoInstaller.exe in the Assets section under the changelog here. It is safe to update in the middle of a playthrough.
For Nvidia users, setting ultra low latency mode for DXRando.exe can help performance. Use vanilla (optionally with Lay D Denton) to get all of the Randomizer's features and the most polished experience. Our installer has an option to install Lay D Denton for you automatically.
Major Changes
- New Vanilla Fixer program - similar to our installer, except it defaults to only apply the fixes to vanilla for modern computers with high resolutions and high framerates, without changing the gameplay at all. Like a "Zero Changes" mode.
- Installer now has an option to default to Zero Rando mode for vanilla menu experience on the first start
- Rando Medium mode, disables goals rando and memes
- Disabled fast forwarding through infolinks in training, and training restores health each map
- Fixed M04 street doors not opening after talking to Paul
- For other mods, fixed the M04 alliance change when using the computer
- Fixed M03 airfield helibase, chance for the key to not be available if the enemy is not there (and similar problems on other maps)
- Randomize MaxAmmo, and maxCopies for stackable items
- Laser triggers now ignore in flight projectiles (such as throwing an EMP grenade at them), and the weapons that enemies are carrying
- Reduced lower-bound door/keypad strength adjustments, to try to increase variety
- Explosives Only loadout
- Rubber Baton for Stick With the Prod Plus, Grenades Only, and Explosives Only
- Does 3 damage so you can break crates and windows, but deals 0 damage to enemies
- More Aug Improvements
- Aug descriptions show if they're automatic and their linger time
- Ability to early disable auto augs
- Combat Strength now has a quicker linger time
- Microfibral Muscle, deleted levels 2 and 3, so you only need 1 upgrade can to get to max level
- Aqualung is now perfectly automatic, and deleted levels 1 and 3, so it starts off better and you only need 1 upgrade to hit max
- Aggressive Defense System now only tracks projectiles that are near you, saving some energy and being less annoying
- Synthetic Heart now has a shorter linger, and the auto setting does not increase its energy usage
- Targeting aug no longer shows the annoying "No Image" black rectangle on lower levels, and on max level the image only shows when you have a weapon drawn
- Improved Vision Enhancement/Tech Goggles green filter to be less green
- Camera Mode can now be selected under the advanced settings (for third person and fixed camera like Resident Evil)
- Third Person camera
- Fixed Camera - updates the camera angle as you move out of view
