Beta 1.08J ???

[Panama Red]

Other than fixing the (1) Multi-sync problem and (2) releasing the Turkish Garrisons, what else is planned for the Beta 1.08J patch and do you expect to release it for testing before this weekend ???

Thanks for your continued improvement of this great game.

In my opinion I believe that the multiplayer aspect of the game needs the most attention right now. It appears that its difficult for some pc's to connect because of the port #. Its a guessing game, what port does this game use? Is it possible for you to remove needing the port number and just use the IP address like other games? Right now we dont know all the reasons for not connecting and if we had a more simplified method it would be easier to find out why.

Could you please add in garrisons to British Africa and South Africa?

(1) Multi-sync problem and (2) releasing the Turkish Garrisons,

Good idea!But it is not a big problem.
Too much patches are not good.

Hattrik is right. I'm yet waiting the saves for MP test. When I fix the most outstanding MP bugs, I can release a new 1.08J beta patch.

No need for that ,the British will land in Africa.Is there any South Africa in the map ?

Why ,I think AI is more important.Why fix the MP test?

Maestro and I tried to connect with MP over the weekend and after some problems we did. But it desynched before we had even made the first move.

MP remains unplayable.

I'm free for playtesting if you want someone to resolve bugs with.

Thanks Calvinus,


This game is going to be the best choice for people who want to game World War I for years to come..

Any progress on the Beta 1.08J patch ???

[Tamas]

I am sure Calvinus will continue working hard on the game, but we really ought to breath less on his neck

Yes, 1.08i is excelent. The game as it is now, at least for a single player, is almost perfect. As far as I can tell, only some minor bugs remain. To me, it's finally time to "jump" to the game (and to continue reading the manual... )

[calvinus]

Don't worry. I haven't stopped to working on the game. I'm just working a bit more relaxed... also because of the big hot temperature that makes me less efficient!

As soon I fix the most outstanding MP bugs, I will publish the new beta patch 1.08J.

[Panama Red]

Thank you, but will you have any of the other small bug fixes included in 1.08J that have been mentioned since 1.08I came out last week ???

The latest version was just released. Based on almost every game patching experience I have, I wouldn't another beta for a while. And since the goal is to work on the MP issues (a lot of complexity to handle), I'd expect this might take a little longer to go through the steps needed to reach a beta stage.

So patience...
