We’d been thinking we were going to release on the 25th, this coming Monday, but we need a couple of extra days. Aside from one OSX crash all is well — very well — with the betas, but we still have a lot of last-minute stuff to prepare, and our distribution partners need time to…
DetailsThis one mainly fixes a bug in the last one that was causing savegames to all be 0 bytes. Yikes. We rushed this fix out as soon as we’d realized, thanks for your patience. This is a standard update that you can download through the in-game updater itself, if you already have 3.701 or later.…
DetailsThis version re-implements more of the statistics window tabs, hopefully fixes the too-low-ship-caps thing, fixes a couple of other exceptions and bugs, nerfs the Zenith Polarizer, and improves memory allocation a bit more. The memory allocation thing in particular changed a few thousand of lines of code scattered throughout the program, so please do keep…
DetailsThis release is smaller on the surface than usual, but it still packs a punch. The biggest thing fixed here is that now the AI Taunts are once again functioning. On OSX, this is a pretty critical fix, as it was apparently deadlocking the game when trying to taunt on that side (or after 25…
DetailsThis release has a lot of miscellaneous stuff in it, but there is particular attention paid to the lobby in there. Specifically, all of the known lobby bugs should be resolved as of this release — including that squirrely one where settings weren’t really taking, etc. Also in this one: Unique graphics for the avenger…
DetailsWell, the release notes for this one are immense. I mean, really really immense. At the risk of seeming terse, I’m just largely going to point you to those, because the fixes and tweaks are all over the place and I’m running really short on time, anyway. But, some of the most exciting points: Lots…
DetailsToday’s release is perhaps the biggest bugfix release we’ve had by far. The three biggest issues on people’s minds are all now fixed: the “Network host initialization error,” the “Access Denied: Could Not Get Cursor Position” error, and the clunky-feeling (compared to the SlimDX version) zooming. We also fixed some bugs from the prior version…
DetailsToday’s release is a major one. Really, really gigantic. Not because it adds any new ships or features, but because it really polishes the balance and difficulty — including fixing some nasty bugs — to such a heavy degree. Let’s see, where to even begin: In the prior version, the economy costs weren’t working properly,…
DetailsToday’s second release is a substantial one. The memory-usage improvements that Keith has put in place for the AI thread alone are really significant, as this lets the game skip for garbage collection vastly less often which means that the music/action doesn’t skip even every 26 seconds or whatever we were up to before. That’s…
DetailsToday’s first release is a small one, but filled with critical fixes. In the prior release, players were lucky if they survived to the 7 minute mark in new games because of some bugs that were causing the threat to skyrocket after the 1 minute mark. Those are now all fixed, and the game should…
