Please feedback on this new public release.
It was a lot of work, show that U all apreciated the hard and long effort that was made in it.
Do not just stay in the shade, dwlding and going away.
...or only post when ur dwld went wrong...hehehe 

I did all this for free and for U all.
And I am Italian, folks...I like things loud and passionated!

....STOP SUGGESTING  N E W  THINGS, AND START APRECIATING WHAT WAS DONE, SOFAR!!

I dont know WHEN and even IF I will make a new updating job on this.
All I desire, deserve and need, in my most honest opinion, is a good long shower of happines and enthusiasm, a real explosion of posting good Pics, Videos, gameplay descriptions, etc etc.

I did my huge part Folks! ...and some other guys that U can see in the Credits did a lot for me and all of U as well....

NOW IS ALL UP TO U!!!

OLD COMMENT

....bahh....may be you and me are the only one that care about this Mod anymore, huh Aury?! 

Anyways, I m sooo proud of myself and FIXED all
-boots
-hats
-axe/shield and knife shields....

...as well...

I need some more time, but I will send you a copy to over check things...and then I will allow the Tester that candidate so far.
Gabby

Seems to be ... *Sadface*

I'm looking forward to the new version of yours. I want to do some things.

I will update the first post.

HAHAHAHAA....true!
But seems also all players are celebrating Holy Easter ...and probably eating to death, at the moment...hehehehe 
No problem and thx for always supporting! 
I did progress again and again and real soon I will send you my update to check
....seen my edit on your first post??? hehehehe
Albany first Scen bug was a pain for MONTHS!!!
I just removed it and used another scene 
gabby
PS HAPPY HOLY EASTER to you all, folks!!!

LAST EDIT:
Sorry for lacking in answer to PMs some of you...
AURIS
Auldman
Azrooh
Empress Meg
George A. Custer
Kegger
von Afton
....etc etc...

I read all of them and will feedback, ...with words or facts. heheheh
Yes, cuz this new 1.5 version is promising a lot and I added some Sieges/scenes that will make ppl play for months! 
I m very late on my schedule with you and expecially with poor Auris.. ...but I swear it is worth the time you wait.
Also, just found out that Castle count is wrong... ...and scenes were not assigned right. 
Castle 11 /23/ 25/ 32/ 38/ 41/ 47 are not in Scenes.text !!
So theoretically castles count was up to 55...but after I fixed it and renamed all castles with right number, there are only 48 castles.
Pls Auris check my last 1.3 that I sent to you... and see if I had that wrong, or... I messed up recently...
Thx for patience
Gab

Ok!
So that was about Castles numbers.

Now I just saw this:

scn_town_2_center town_2_center 256 none none 0.000000 0.000000 100.000000 100.000000 -100.000000 0x0000000030015f2b000350d4000011a4000017ee000054af

outer_terrain_plain

See? In some towns, like number 2, there are those numbers that I put in red for you to see...
In most towns scene code, though, there are just 2 final zeros.
I remember smth about this stuff...but not sure.
One of the zero, is the count of Secret Chests in that town, right? 

------------------------------

GGHhhhh....just found out another issue, maybe connected with that BUG of first mission wrong, when startin in Iroquois town?

ok, castles in towns have a number, that is regular from
scn_town_1_castle
till
scn_town_34


scn_town_1_castle town_1_castle 1 viking_interior_keep_a bo_viking_interior_keep_a -100.000000 -100.000000 100.000000 100.000000 -100.000000 0

- - - - - - - - -etc etc

scn_town_34_castle town_34_castle 1 viking_interior_keep_a bo_viking_interior_keep_a -100.000000 -100.000000 100.000000 100.000000 -100.000000 0

In town 34 the progressive number gets to  741 as you can see up above.

Now...look what happens with the last 2  of that list of Castles in Towns :
n. 35 (Dutch_Landing_Fort) and 36 ( Oshawa)

scn_town_35_castle town_35_castle 1 arabian_interior_keep_b bo_arabian_interior_keep_b -100.000000 -100.000000 100.000000 100.000000 -100.000000 0

I m sure I did not touch THAT one before! 

Any help^
I m late checking all this stuff...but I haven t being doing it for months and cannot remember...and some I never even noticed! 

Gab

PS ....but some good new as well. Get this!

No time to comment them now but I will.
Enjoy  the new scenes and stuff... and Diplomacy etc etc working, now.

Not sure what that means, but I think "scn_town_35_castle" and "scn_town_36_castle" could interfere with "scn_town_20_castle" and "scn_town_21_castle".
besause they already have the numbers 727 and 728.

Solution is I think :

scn_town_35_castle town_35_castle 1 arabian_interior_keep_b bo_arabian_interior_keep_b -100.000000 -100.000000 100.000000 100.000000 -100.000000 0
  1  100000
  1  742

scn_town_36_castle town_36_castle 1 interior_castle_g_square_keep bo_interior_castle_g_square_keep -100.000000 -100.000000 100.000000 100.000000 -100.000000 0

But maybe it is only Code polishing.

Greetings

THx Aury! 
Also got your PM

....so I probably messed up some things myself....
But I did fix them, already..heheheh

Ok, I will try to have things done within this weekend and send them to you ...and after your supervision, we will send a link to Testers.

Gab

Ha ha, I didn't understand any of that, but I did understand that I'm really excited for this!

Hey Ney,
you are the first one who comments, well Gab but he doesn't count, hehe. Thanks. 
Here you can see what messages the dev-team is sending each other. And that Gab finally will give me something to work the Next days.

ever notice how I never post yet I'm a moderator   

don't mind me posting text editing was never my foray as gab does tricks with it that make me go 

Thx for enthusiasm Marhal Ney. 

Aury, I think that the title of this topic makes ppl to think they can freely comment...no? 
And suggest things, maybe. Or just compliment and show enthusiasm.

Maybe "Developers Comments on Progress" can be more clear? Not sure, though...


Ciao DELLY!!! 
Glad to see you posting here!!!

What??!! 
you do not post cause you are Moderator?? 
I added you in the general testing of the new update and surely hope you do comment now and always will, hey!! 
Making you my Forums Moderator is just an addition, not a "restriction", hope you know that.
I post here my doubts/problems so you all can see and suggest/help me on that.

Gabby

-Aury, I think that the title of this topic makes ppl to think they can freely comment...no? 
That was my intention. Now it is more "Developers Comments on Progress" but I think we can leave it as it is. 

Ok, now we need your help...

Gab has an Error that occoured and it is game breaking. With it we can not release the testversion. 

This error shows:

Number of passages for site 256 exceeds 16

Gab thinks it is connected to Scene.txt or Parties.txt, cuz they were his last changes...after all the work he did.

Maybe someone of you know what the Error means.

AurisGmbH said:

Found something: Error seems to be in scenes.txt

Search for "Number of passages for site none exceeds 16" in this topic maybe it is usefull.

EDIT by Gabby
THX, but I did it already ...and found some other errors...but old ones, it seems...
Gabby

Hmm...

That's odd. Never encountered that one before. Maybe Azrooh could help?

Thx, but I divided the buggy part in 2 parts and used the half that was working.
Than divided again 2 more times and again I used the working part.
So at the end I lost only some of my work but mostly I saved it!! 
That took a lot of time though, damn!
I think after this weekend I will send my final fixed version to Aury....and then to testers 

Wish me good work and....good luck! 
Gabby

EDIT:
Nobody wished me good luck... ....but I had some, anyway, cuz I did huge progresses and am almost ready to deliver Auris my work for his last check and eventually his additions, before official Testing.

I always wish you Luck. xD

Btw: With the files you send me ... I have several problems, because I don't have some files the scenes.txt is refering to.
But it seems that you already made some progress. So that this doesn't matter anymore?!?

Sorry for not fedbacking much lately but had several problems on my own. ....
Nope, that cannot work, you were right.
As I mentioned to you, I will have to send you the whole thing
Actually, we and the Testers will have to hurry up and check my last version BEFORE we update our WB to new version 1.151
It seems it is full of good new things, etc etc ....but I m sure it will screw completely our Mods...

By last version you mean version 1.0.7 sir? If so what exactly do you require us to test for you? We live to serve.

Devoirs The Empress

Hey Gab, just found I had the message i've been waiting for .  So looking forward to getting started.  The first problem i'm having is downloading the new version on Rapidshare, its been sitting with the spinning circle for the last 30 mins so i'm not holding out hope.  Is there any other way to get it?  My second question would be on banners and how do I attach one?

Edit. 6.40pm    24/4/12  Tried to download again and now getting a "file not available" message.

Edit. 6.53pm    24/4/12  Tried to download again and its back to the spinning circle like it can't find the file.

Edit. 8.15pm    24/4/12  Thanks Meg, i'm trying to save it to desktop but like I said its just spinning circle like its trying to get to the option at the bottom where you would choose where to download the file too.  Will try again and leave it for a while and see if I have any luck.  Cheers, Scott.

Edit. 8.25pm    24/4/12  Another stupid question (Seems to be a day for it. lol)  Is this where we have to report things during testing or is it where we applied to be testers as I can't seem to edit my post there?

Edit. 8.56pm    02/05/12 Hey Gabby, any word on a different download site for the Beta Mod yet so I can get testing?
