This release is just a bugfix version that resolves some important issues (including a crash bug in the prior release). There will be another release tonight with actual new stuff.
However, today is already exciting because the long-awaited release of the remastered music — and the new Children of Neinzul tracks — is today! We haven’t managed to put together a new installer yet, and some folks with the game already installed just wanted a zip archive anyway, so that’s what we’ve done. Download the music bundle zip file here, and simply unpack it (with directories intact) into your game folder. Pablo has really outdone himself with this one, and we’re very excited to be able to share it with folks at last!
This is a standard update that you can download through the
in-game updater itself, if you already have 3.701 or later. When you
launch the game, you’ll see the notice of the update having been found
if you’re connected to the Internet at the time. If you don’t have
3.701 or later, you can download the installer for 3.711 here.
Can I add the music tracks even if I don’t have Children of Neinzul?
This only is set up for working with the new AI War 4.0 betas, but you can definitely use it even if you don’t have CoN or even TZR; as long as those expansions are simply disabled, it just won’t play those tracks.
For the 3.189 and older versions, the folder structure is all wrong with the music bundle, so you’d have to alter it to get it to work with that.
