Prototype 5-4g Release

Posted on by SaltyJustice

You can get it on Mediafire or Mega.nz.

This prototype is the new UI update as well as some bugfixes, particularly the double-load crash (which was actually caused by Windows mangling the memory hasher). Glad to get that one out of the way.

If you didn’t try the previous experimental, this one now loads only graphics from the chapter in question, so it loads somewhat faster. It also has a lower memory overhead for players on older machines.

Please Note the Status UI is not redesigned yet. The equipment icons were changed so it will need a redesign later, but it wasn’t a huge enough deal to justify holding the release back. The UI still functions, it just looks silly.

Next week: Hopefully the Classic Mode update will be ready to ship.

  1. Stuck in the Mansion Basement bit. Many of the interactions just stop working (Combat autocompletes to a draw, I guess, doors can’t be opened etc.)

    Log says:
    ua Error during (C) string-loading: [string ” WD_SetProperty(“Append”, “[VOICE|Mei] (That …”]:1: unfinished string near
    String: WD_SetProperty(“Append”, “[VOICE|Mei] (That seems to be it.[SOFTBLOCK] Seems they haven’t finished their research.))

    When I use a stairs in this case it crashes to desktop.

  2. Thanks for the bug report. I’ll put out a fix with the upcoming Classic Mode patch.
    If you don’t want to wait, you can fix it yourself: The file is Data\Scripts\Scenario\AdventureMode\Maps\QuantirManse\QuantirManseNEHall\Examination.lua
    Line 148 should be :
    fnCutsceneInstruction([[ WD_SetProperty(“Append”, “[VOICE|Mei] (That seems to be it.[SOFTBLOCK] Seems they haven’t finished their research.”) ]])
    Note the quote near the end. This is a problem in Lua, where a broken statement causes a memory error which eventually crashes the program.
    Alternately, you can load the game and just not examine that journal (it isn’t needed to progress).
