New Patch (v1.102) question?

Post by Michael Slaunwhite »

Hi.

Are previous game saves (Scenarios/Campaign) compatible with the new game patch? Meaning should I restart a saved scenario just to implement any new features that the patch provides? I'm also wondering if I don't need to restart the campaign scenario, will it mess with the scoring (not that my score is all that great) at all?

Cheers...and take it easy.

As far as we know, saves from previous versions should be fine in 1.102. You can look at changes.txt in the main game directory to see the specific items that have been fixed or added.

Hi Jim.

Alright I'll check the changes.txt.

Thanks Jim.

What exactly does the new patch include?

It includes manual activation (no internet connection required), the game loads faster on startup, and an MP fix.

Hi Little Powell.

I thought those changes were introduced in version 1.101? I'm a wee bit confused with the latest posts concerning the patch versions. Were the multiplayer crash's are they because of version 1.101, which have been fixed with version 1.102, or is it patch v1.102 with the MP problems, and a future update will come soon with the mp fixes?

At the moment my left side of my brain isn't keeping up with the right, so if you could clear this up for me I would appreciate it.

Thanks Little Powell.

The soon to be released patch will be 1.103. It will have the last, (we hope), needed MP fix. It should be out this week.

I'd like to thank all you guys at norbsoftdev for all your hard work. It's nice when you feel you've gotten your money's worth from just about anything you buy these days. And I think we all got off cheap with this game.

And I hope all you guys' hard work pays off. I still can't figure out why there aren't a couple of thousand players in the MP lobby every evening. Hopefully with the cd version, we can at least get a couple of hundred.

Thanks for all the kind words, but it was really the logs and descriptions you all gave that pointed Norb in the right direction. He had the fix ready to go before we even tested the old version and found the bug. It was a true group effort.
