Well-Actually War Trall Spidweb Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Edit: v1.0.2 is now live. Thank you for the feedback! I have made a public beta of Avernum 6 v1.0.2 for the Mac available. I wanted to give it two or three days to make sure I didn't let a corrupted file slip in there somewhere. You can download it at [just use regular download page] If you try it and have any problems (or try it any everything is great), you can always send a note to spidweb@spiderwebsoftware.com. Or just post in this thread. There are a lot of changes in this version. A lot of bugs fixed, a lot of balance tweaks, and a few changes to make some regions less annoying: * The game in general is slightly easier. Your foes will have slightly less health and damage capability. * Fewer creatures cause ongoing acid damage. * Quite a few early side quests are now easier. We like for a handful of the side quests to be challenges, but too many were too hard. * You will now be able to complete the Fort Draco and Fort Monastery quests even after Levitt will no longer tell you about them. * The Hirickis encounter will no longer get stuck and unable to continue. * Resurrected characters will be cured of damaging effects (like poison). * Some other balance changes and minor bug and typo fixes. - Jeff Vogel (Edit: 1/13/2010: I just put up a new version. The missing dialogue script has been replaced and a bug which made it possible for the Khrez-Yss encounter to get stuck has been fixed.)

Garrulous Glaahk Clocknova Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 I'm getting broken dialogue script errors whenever I try to talk to anyone in the Castle, which means I cannot complete my Levitt quest. Going back to the previous version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Spidweb Posted January 13, 2010 Author Share Posted January 13, 2010 Thank you ... Somehow a script got dragged out of a folder. (I blame my children.) I'll get this fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curious Artila IJBall Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Jeff, Did you see (or receive an E-mail about) the possible bug in the Skunky Joe quest, mentioned in this thread? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curious Artila Lightning Spammer Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Yay! I was a bit sad about not being able to get into Fort Draco with my current (and first) play through. If I update, will it immediately be available even if the save was made on an older version? If not that's fine too... goodness knows I play each of your games at least three times. I think I've played Avernum 1-3 about 5 times each. >.< EDIT: Well, think I answered my own question. No, I still can't get into Fort Draco. Oh well. I'll stick with 1.0.1 then on my first play through, I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Spidweb Posted January 14, 2010 Author Share Posted January 14, 2010 In 1.0.2 go back and talk to Levitt. He will give you the key. - Jeff Vogel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotghroth Rhapsody Soul of Wit Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 I see 1.0.2 is out officially. I was undecided on the acid damage reduction, but I now see that it makes sense. I was almost always using Ward of Steel for the acid protection, even when Ward of Thoughts would have been very useful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Spidweb Posted January 15, 2010 Author Share Posted January 15, 2010 Acid damage is the same, but fewer creatures inflict the ongoing damage. A certain amount of that is ok, but too much is annoying. - Jeff Vogel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
