Well-Actually War Trall Spidweb Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 We have released a tentative, beta v1.0.1 for Avernum 4 for Macintosh. Avernum 4 v1.0.1 (20.5 MB) can be downloaded at ftp://ftp.spiderwebsoftware.com/mac/Avernum4.demo.v101.bin It fixes a variety of irritating bugs and adds some improved graphics. The full list of problems fixed is on the Avernum 4 support page. Comments or problems are best sent to spidweb@spiderwebsoftware.com. If it looks clean enough, I'll make it the default download shortly. - Jeff Vogel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Lilith Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 Quote: * The sparks on the title screen will no longer look odd after you make 32000 of them. Wow. That seems like an awfully obscure bug. Anyway, thanks for the update. The bug fixes are much appreciated, and the fixes to the bugs (new Chitrach graphics) even more so.

Easygoing Eyebeast VCH Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 Could someone post a screen of the new graphics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnificent Ornk Aran Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 Next question: Did you notice this problem by looking at the code, or did you get an email saying: "Hey, your game sucks; if you make like 32000 sparks on the title page the graphics go all wrong!!" The new chitrach looks good. I'm looking a bit more forward to the Windows release now than I did a few weeks ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 Actually, I'm not even so surprised that someone made tens of thousands of blue spark things. What worries me is that someone may have counted. Even rounding to the nearest thousand requires a frightening amount of concentration on blue sparks. —Alorael, who would like to know if the precise number of sparks before errors is 32767.

Well-Actually War Trall Spidweb Posted February 1, 2006 Author Share Posted February 1, 2006 Nobody reported this bug. I just noticed it while I was working on the Windows port. "who would like to know if the precise number of sparks before errors is 32767." Yes. - Jeff Vogel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Actaeon Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 How exactly do you go about updating without losing your saved games or registration? Additionally, could someone tell me the location of some more Citaraches other than the mine in the Great Cave and the Eastern Gallery? Once I update I would like to be able to see the new graphic, and I have already eliminated most of them. If there are no more of them, I also ask that someone else post a picture.

Magnificent Ornk Kelandon Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 The pictures were already posted. Follow the links above. They're not screenshots, but they definitely give you a good idea of what the chitrachs look like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyshakk Koan Croikle Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 Registration and prefs should be continuous, since they aren't dependent on the app's folder. To transfer your saves, I think that moving the Save# folders from Avernum 4 Files in your old installation to Avernum 4 Files in the new one should work.
