Belmakor Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Played 11 missions now and not one crash! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randemonium Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 It works very good over here now..a view balancing and a bit this and that to add, but it never played so nice and smooth.. And I could load the savegame from v18 hotfix1 without problems. I just played about 4 hours and I got not any crash. The first time I got on to November!... But I only met Sebillians and Ceasans yet, and no cruiser or officer or terror mission yet. I wonder if it is ment that way..and a bit more research options would be nice at this point.. Anyway.. I think this is the best working Xenonauts Version until now.. thanks a lot for your work!.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omots Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 I'm receiving a 'connection refused' error when clicking on the Hotfix 2 link. V18 and Hotfix 1 worked without problems. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sathra Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Awesome work Goldhawk and Chris! Looking forward to trying it out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonie Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Now we are getting somewhere. Finally; the true birth of Xenonauts is upon us. Polish your boots, clean your guns and don't forget your sunglasses. Time to kick some alien butt comrades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sathra Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Hmm not sure but I think this hotfix is causing soldiers to not be listed as healing. Routinely only put soldiers who aren't listed as healing only on the dropship, yet had someone with greyed health in my last mission, and had two lose all their gear.

erutan Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 gear loss bug is a pain. I wonder if I hand over weapons from someone wounded < 50% health to someone else if i'd keep them? armor is toast either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assoonasitis Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 gear loss bug is a pain. I wonder if I hand over weapons from someone wounded < 50% health to someone else if i'd keep them? armor is toast either way. As soon as the mission ends, unequip everything the wounded soldiers has (before the transport returns to base). Re-equip right before sending the transport out again, and make sure to heal the soldier in the battle. Et voila: not lost gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StellarRat Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 I say THREE HUZZAHS for the Xenonauts crew! And an extra ration of RUM! Yes, there are still some problems, but with HF2 I'm having a lot of fun playing and it's really looking like it's going to be awesome when completed.

raziel1981 Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Just wanted to say V18 hf 2 is a quantum leap in stability over previous versions. Their are still CTDs but much fewer (the hunter destroyed CTD for instance), their are still missing sprites and various logical/graphical anomallies (had a Sebillian spawn in a haystack...) but the game is definitely converging to the point of becoming a stable, playable and fun beta. Huge codus to all of the dev team! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GizmoGomez Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Ironically, I've had more CTD in this version (18+HF2) than any other (though, I am actually playing through a lot more than I have in any other version, so it makes sense).

Moonie Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 (edited) For me, it's the first time I have actually been able to get down and enjoy myself playing the game, as bugs would always bugger up my fun in some way or another, there are still bugs, but it is now playable. So I also give a huge codus to all of the dev team! I am frikkin loving it. Get a stable beta on green light, and this has to be popular. Don't know if this is possible, but it would be a great spring board for the game. Edited April 13, 2013 by Moonie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FranTorres Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 So? is it really playable? I'm forbidding myself to play it until it has a stable beta release or its first release version. I'll download it and check some... not much, just some. It was quite frustrating to advance into the game then being unable to past certain milestones, it's not because of the game, it's because I'm an impatient SOB hahahaha.

You have to change the Researches.xml file because apparently half of the requirements for researching the Shrike don't show up in-game at this time.

radiognomeinvisible Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 Hello, i'm new here, so i'm a bit confused about the release numbers. Desura currently hosts V18.1 build. Is V18.1 the same as V18 Hotfix 1? Should i install V18 Hotfix 2 on V18.1? Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
