version v1.030

[Stratego (dev)]

version v1.029 is published to GP.

AND VERY BAD NEWS!

i lost my PC install.
so i started from scratch, that will result in all DEV versions on your device will not be updated anymore until you unisntall the existing one on your device
(this is a "debug signature conflict" problem)

to place it simple:
- your DEV version is frozen
- you need to uninstall it before getting the new DEV version (not yet up on server)
- you will not be able to "update" it as earlier because of my new windows/eclipse install.

drawback:
- you need to save-load your account on the new install
- YOU WILL LOSE ALL DRAFT MAPS you drew! so before doing this please send me all maps you planned to send me because you will lost your work then.

(this stuff will not influence the public version - only the DEV versions for all games AOS/AOF/SWS/AOW)

Really sad
I have made quite a few maps but no worry i will send you only the most important one.
You already have implemented the christmas map. So i wont be sending u that(no changes done after i sent it)
Thanks for notifying

[TheBluePhoenix]

Will multiplayer games also be affected?

[DoomCarrot]

This. This is why I only use the dev version for testing stuff out. Although I must agree that this is very sad for everyone else who is using it... does that mean they will even lose all their campaign/gem/upgrade tree progress?

[TheBluePhoenix]

No i dont think saved data on server will be affected. Its just that coolguy is not playing, and he never misses his turn so thats why i asked

[COOLguy]

Sorry - busy I took it now.

It will be fine - just save your progress to the server before uninstalling. I will back all my drafts to my own email before uninstalling.

[Stratego (dev)]

Will multiplayer games also be affected?

no, you can get them by using the join/games i am already in option.

does that mean they will even lose all their campaign/gem/upgrade tree progress?

these will be preserved if you use the save account - uninstall old - install new - load account options.

[SomeGuy]

Are the unpublished DEV version maps still there, or have they been lost?

[Stratego (dev)]

They are still there.

[SomeGuy]

So if I posted new versions of the maps, would you be able to update them?

[Stratego (dev)]

posted means - you sent it to me? if so: yes.

[RiverRaider 1097]

Is the fix ready to be downloaded and is it on the same link?

[Stratego (dev)]

not yet, it will be up on server in 1-2 hours.

[Stratego (dev)]

also please before uninstalling your version - please email meg asking if the given mapname you wanted to preserve (by sending me) is arrived to me or not. thanks.

[Stratego (dev)]

ok, the new version is up on server in 10 minutes.
change:
- palisade is not walkable tru.

READ ABOVE to save you stuff! (because this time u need to unistall the current dev version before installing...)

[SomeGuy]

Installed the new version from the email link you gave me earlier, but got the public version. If there is a new link, would you be able to email it to me?

[Stratego (dev)]

oh. my fault. that is not really the public version, but i forgot to "enable" the forumers stuff before compiling it. i am fixing it in 20 minutes.

[Stratego (dev)]

ok, the "forum version" is up on server!

also a new starting campaign "Liberators" (will get new campaign name later) by "Disco" - thanks!

[TheBluePhoenix]

Can i uninstall the present version? Did u get my maps?

[Disco]

ok, the "forum version" is up on server!

also a new starting campaign "Liberators" (will get new campaign name later) by "Disco" - thanks!

Hey Dan, just to let you know "Liberators" is the 2nd map in the campaign mate. Just sayin cos, it could very well muddle up the storyline

Edit: E-mailed you the name yesterday/last night. Thanks again buddy

[Stratego (dev)]

yes, yes, this is why i wrote "(will get new campaign name later)", and yes on next update the new naming will be there.

[Stratego (dev)]

3 new maps in Hornburgs Dominion campaign!
palisade is not walkable tru anymore
Scout bird can see stealth units

up on ser ver in 20 minutes.

[TheBluePhoenix]

DID U GET MY MAPS? CAN I UNINSTALL THE PRESENT VERSION?

[Stratego (dev)]

please tell me the map names to check, and also please not shout at me.
thanks.

[TheBluePhoenix]

Errr. No offence but was that in jest? Cause i jist thought that capital letters wont be overlooked(i posted the same msg earlier and u overlooked it probably)
You have to check for egypt map, gaul map and a christmas map
Sorry if you were offended

[Stratego (dev)]

also please before uninstalling your version - please email meg asking if the given mapname you wanted to preserve (by sending me) is arrived to me or not. thanks.

No problem. Was no overlook simply i did not know the map names to check. This is why i asked for mapnames as quoted.
No hard feelings i have answered these in email to you that these are in.

[Stratego (dev)]

A new attempt to activate the FFW button.

[Stratego (dev)]

[TheBluePhoenix]

When i uninstall and reinstall games, i donot get the betting gems when i win a bet multiplayer game started before uninstalling the dev version. Am i doing something wrong?

[Stratego (dev)]
