Game News Dungeon Lords issues are fixed!

[cpt kirk]

Thank you Deathboy - my faith in trolls has now been reaffirmed

Heh.

now then, as i said before, i now have a fresh install of the game itself, not played yet, does anyone think, or know if i should now, install the patch, before i play the game, and see if that correct the loading prob, i had after first try of patch?

Once again. really don't know. The thing is, your primary source of sorting out this problem (i.e. the DC forums) has been yanked out from under you. Bad form, I say.
You really need to get the thing going (if at all) with the latest patch, and any following patches for that matter. Some early annoyances are fixed...and believe me this game needs some good patching.
I remember some (not many) threads about the patch borking save games for some people. Once again, I can't corroborate because the forums are down.
I would recommend just giving it a go, but making sure you back up your save games first. ("save" folder in your install folder)

hey, thanks for your input shagnak. i sent a request for help to dreamcatcher and got a reply. they said since i had reinstalled and not played the game yet, this time round, to go ahead with the patch. if it still messes up like before try to turn down my sound acceleration, and try again.

so i will try that out.

thanks,

Cpt Kirk

Holy sarcasm filter Batman! If I got you for thinking you got me, does that mean I win? Or do you win for making me think that I got you when you got me? But the big phish didn't bite at all

Hmmm.... I'm confused as wel
who wins?
or have we both lost?
Some one help

Me and Shaggy are huge fans of Dungeon Lords, we spent hours on the demo (at least two, would have been less but the save game feature didn't work and we had to restart) :D

Still Eating fatties!!!

Some one help

I think it's a draw.
It appears that no-one fooled anybody, really, and everyone's still happy and agreeable.
This is a good thing. Let's celebrate with a whiskey! :D

Oh man, please don't go there.

Every time I saw that link, I said to myself - "Self, don't do it. You know that it has to be truly horrible." And because I was at work - and you never know how good the logging programs are - I was able to resist.

And then, one week-end at home, I was reading one of Saint's posts where he included the link.

And I clicked it.

And it was worse than I even imagined. I think my brain has scars.

well, shagnak, i tried what dreamcatcher said. no dice. all 4 settings got the same result. goes to first intro screen, music, choppy, reboot to desktop. so i emailed them again. gotta wait for reply.
darn thing runs ok till i put on the patch. like said b4, noticed some things dont function in game like should, and flickering on loading saved game. the stuff everyone says it does without patch. but the damn patch aint workin. it seems to make things worse.

Do you feel irony in my words? :wink:

 

[cpt kirk]

well. finally figured it out guys. the patch did work. thing is i have to hit esc repeatedly to bypas all the intro crap. it will then go to the load screen/single/multiplayer stuff. had a few game freezeups though once in a while. does anyone know when dreamcatcher might be releasing the 2nd, i hope, patch? i;ll try to ask over there too.
