Armagan & Co:List of changes/features for next version?

[Cataphract]

Now that the new version probably arrives soon, i think we all would like to know what the changes are for the next version, so it doesnt hurt to ask does it? What changes apart from the mod tools can we expect in the next version? Will it concentrate on bugfixing or feature adding or both?

 

[Raz]

Yeah would like some answers on that too

 

[J.A.R.S.]

im about sure armagan was serious : tools : only... but it would means a lot of work in this field I prefer focused work actually... One release being that, another being bugfixes only... it sorta works better when working on a specific thing doesn't it?

 

[miruim]

It seems to me that next version features the mod tools along with bugfixes (bugs are always a priority imho).

 

[armagan]

There will be several small but important changes such as addition of gloves and chests. There are some other quite important changes, but these will not be immediately visible in the next version. But they will hopefully be very useful in the long term once we can add the necessary content.

ARmagoN! when do you think the new ver. will be out?

 

[Mathias]

Alright keep your secrets

Gloves and chests sound awesome though, look forward to seeing them. Haven't read this board or played the game in awhile due to, uh, personal difficulties. In fact I have court in about an hour (wish me luck :O ) Anyway, this update might be just the thing I need to get me playing it once again.

 

[Raz]

GLOVES!!! What are ment with chests?

 

[Xiphos]

Chests, you know, gorillas beat on them . . .

 

[Lost-Lamb]

and people put stuff into chests, what he probably meant to ask was which one

 

[okiN]

Woohoo, gloves and gauntlets! It always freaked me the hell out seeing myself armed capapée in black armor but with my small, pink hands exposed.

 

[Raz]

Hmm, so either 1.) grapically chests are improved (bodyparts)
or 2.) Chests to store things in !?! How could they be improved?

Dunno but the qute little lunchbox that the player character has on the battlefield is a little comical.

 

[SiR K1lLaLoT]

How about:

1.Crowds watching the games and cheering for hits, k.o.'s etc.
2.Being able to join a group of pirates/bandits, but instead of just joing, you have to defeat their champion (this is done with blunt weapons of course)
3.Sieges!
4.More soldiers on a battlefield at once
5.More dialogue options

 

[okiN]

He might also mean chests where you can leave stuff, then come back to retrieve it. You know, so you won't have to carry all your wordly posessions with you, around the world, 24/7.

gloves?chests?what the?is it french?i'd better go and take extra english lessons

 

[miruim]

Gloves are obvious.

By chest, I think that armagan meant separating the chest from the pants.

At the moment, you can't wear pants and no shir, but either the full set or nothing. I think that he means from next version on there will be the following armor slots:

Head
Chest
Gloves
Legs
Feet

That's just my interpretation out of it, though.

 

[DaLagga]

Hmm...i wonder if my save games will still work?

 

[Reinhart]

I believe Miruim is correct.

This is excellent, and I can't wait to get the mod tools. I don't need Armagan to complete the game at that point, I'll just make my own damn game ^.^

Can't wait to see the mod community with this game, it has so much potential.

 

[compfreak]

Hmm...i wonder if my save games will still work?

No, they won't. Because of the addition of a large number of new variables and registers for the mod tools, as well as the new armor slots, it is doubtful old saves will work. Armagan could release a tool that converts the old saves to new ones, but I doubt he will do something like that since it would take extra work he could put into writing more of the game.
