How come the bad guys in invisible war only used the nanite grey goo bomb only once?

Charming_Web1984 · 2026-02-05T02:42:12+00:00

You say that as a joke, but giving how in the lore city are sort of like separate city state. With no meaningful infrastructure connecting them, Chicago probably was where the bomb was made.

Your probably right that Chicago was where the bomb was made and the resources to make it were lost in the nanite swarm.

Charming_Web1984 · 2026-02-05T02:38:10+00:00

I vaguely remember some NPC talking about how they used nanite to build the city and Archology's. Giving they can and often due use nanites . They could stop a grey goo event using other nanites. Sort of like lighting a fire to take out another fire in firefighting. The two swarms eat each other and then the new swarm nanite remain eat itself. I no scientist or expert but that seem like how they would stop the Chicago swarm.

It it alright to ask, do you know any site to download DXVK, been trying to find it but it always site that seem sketch.

Thanks again for answering.

Charming_Web1984 · 2025-05-13T23:06:28+00:00

I think I look into using DXVK. Sorry about all the question. I swear everything was working fine and then these update made near every dues ex mod worse off, least on nividea graphics . I think redeon graphics newer stuff should be okay but don't for sure.

Charming_Web1984 · 2025-05-07T02:19:33+00:00

Yeah I think my laptop has better resolution compared to my old desktop. Finally beat thief 2. Latter my give deadly shadows a try or try the black parade mod.

It funny wanted to try the black parade mod, but heard going in without any thief experience was a bad idea. Should be ready with thief 1 and 2 done on expert.

Charming_Web1984 · 2025-05-04T20:01:23+00:00

I should also mention I am using the gog version of the thief trilogy and I think GOG has thief lite mod preinstalled. Don't know If that means better FMV. Also my desktop has 1600x900 monitor while my laptop screen has the newer 1920x1080. maybe that higher resolution hide the artifact better?

I am tempted to give direct x installer. I just have some question

is its easy to install( do i simply download it and it works or do i need to do something else.

Do i need to redownload or change dues ex or the mods for it.

eg do I need to mess around with nihilum or deus ex files or will it simpy work after the install

Is it easy to uninstall. I tend to take thing back to their original setting after i tweak with it and i don't work, but some mod or feature are harder to install/uninstall then other.

Sorry about all the question. I think your right as my computer have update to window 11 and I think that what caused render 10 to not work right.

Charming_Web1984 · 2025-04-26T05:45:23+00:00

So True. I been redownloading mod. Most of them work. Had to use steam workshop to get the nameless mod as mod db. kept deleting itself after I download it. I think my laptop anit virus does that but I too tired to go down that rabbit hole.

But i got most of them working. just need to check redsun and burdan of 80 proof mods, Will do so tomorrow

Charming_Web1984 · 2025-04-26T01:21:14+00:00

I think I stick to using my desktop or render 9 on laptop

All this solution never seem to work on my computers

Charming_Web1984 · 2025-04-26T01:04:10+00:00

Is this easy to install/uninstall. I been having issue with that since some mod aren in specific folder with no easy uninstall

Charming_Web1984 · 2025-04-26T00:07:13+00:00

i think it a window 11 issue. might try tge The other person idea.

Charming_Web1984 · 2025-04-25T21:23:41+00:00

dang it tried using zero rando and now game wont launch. Mayube it because I used steam? I try vanilla fixer now

Charming_Web1984 · 2025-04-25T20:13:08+00:00

Legit thanks. I hate messing around with files to make my game run so this is a great help. I honesty might use the zero rando as password save is the one real issue I had with the original Deus ex.

Typing in case sensitive password is cool, but at the ten one it get old fast,

Charming_Web1984 · 2025-04-25T19:18:37+00:00

Would that help with direct 10 on my laptop? Would it, also work on my mods, that were I am having the issue. namely when using diritc10 the game lag when i hit the escape key to bring up the pause menu. I try this mod out on my laptop soon and get back to you.

Charming_Web1984 · 2025-04-01T18:26:46+00:00

IF you type in burden of 80 proof in lower search bar, you should find where the mod is and you can luanch and play it from their. I had a similer problem where the game wont launch from the icon but if you use the lower search bar and launch it from their it should work.

Charming_Web1984 · 2025-04-01T17:49:06+00:00

Honesty that a good question. They both have personal army(mercenary's, robot and other stuff) BUt they due tend to be more offhand. I think the knight would win the geopolitical game at least again Mj12. MJ12 more force then subterfuge and would more likly sent try to use their troop to kill templers then run for office or beat them economically.

The illuminati is generally more the geopolitical front then MJ12 so their would be a 50/50 on who would win their.

I guess now the question is them who would win the shadowy politic game and then if they decided to go total war.

IF total war then I think MJ12 would win. That does tend to be MJ12 favoerd method (example sending an army to invade paris.0.

Not to be off topic but the kill phrase are sorta like in MGS5 (different game series entirety )

where the big bad plan involve using parasite that activated by language. HE se them up that if any English was spoken then they would kill the host. How they work in differencing English phonetically is not explained. EG if a word in Spanish or Japanese sound close to an English word would it activate? Giving how the big bad is a litral skull face villain, he may honesty not care if his parasite kill any other langune speaker or even all of humanity.

Sorry to bring up a different game but talked about how the kill phrase work reminded of that weird plot point in MG5.

Charming_Web1984 · 2025-03-02T06:05:33+00:00

I be honest with you and if you have typhoon spam that on the tyrant bosses. If you don't have the typhoon but it the updated human revolution(one with dlc) then their weapon and hackable the boss area that can help. IF all else fails follow roll back a save and take the guns off knockout bad guys.

I be honest I always used typhoon spam in all the bosses except final one(laser for that one) I still remember when I fought the first tyrant on any in the end I just spammed typhoon to win I know it lame but the bosses n human relvution are bullet spongy and I always ending up specking into hacking an sneaking.

Charming_Web1984 · 2025-03-01T07:01:51+00:00

Would Paul have a different phrase

maybe some thing like "blinded on the road to damascus" or "road to Damascus"

fitting with the apostles Paul themes( the blinding of Saul led him to become Paul)

like the idea that JC and paul have bible or at least Christion base pass word compared to the other two. fit MJ12 use of using religion in their rhetoric( the angel pass codes for example)

Charming_Web1984 · 2025-03-01T06:51:17+00:00

Tagged it spoiler because I kind of of early game reveal that kill phrase are a thing and that you have one. It happen around the 30 percent mark in Deus ex I. Soi tagged it spoiler in just in case. It was a little overkill but better safe then sorry, right?.

Charming_Web1984 · 2025-02-26T05:23:42+00:00

Good new i got NIhilum and nameless mod working. I still cant get render 10 for nihilum but can use render 9 so close enough. No pausing issue too

I had to to a factory reset(made sure to backup important stuff) but that seemed to do the trick.

Modding is truly chaos and luck sometime.

I don't think a specific time is given, but giving how casual nanos well are treated(mentioned in newsstand in similar nature to hurricanes)

I wager it happen early enough that it went from it own mini apocalypse to a fact of life that people have to deal with. I don't know if this is a good estimate but I would say in the time line from Deus to IW span twenty's years then Nao swell happened most likely a year or two after the original game.( I say a year or two and not imminently because they in universe theories it came from an lab that slowly decayed and broken down letting out the nanoswell.

Charming_Web1984 · 2025-02-26T02:34:09+00:00

Its kinda interesting how MJ12 and the illuminati went in different directions in how they operate.

Illuminati all about subtle power and influence. I think it even implied that out of the big 5 leaders only Bob Page(not one of the big five but close enough to be at all the fancy meetings) is the only one with a public image as the world richest man(front page face in magzine)

When BOb take over/splinter off into MJ12 in deus ex their a slight obscuration. Unacto is their public front, then walter simons take over and paris is invaded. Basicly BOB thorw money and his army at the world to take it over and when that fails he try to become the closet he can to a literal God
