ronikai Posted November 23, 2016 Report Share Posted November 23, 2016 Bummer! Is an end of year release a slight possibility? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ronikai Posted November 27, 2016 Report Share Posted November 27, 2016 It eases my mind all the same. I can wait. Just ignore the path I burned on my carpet from pacing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metis Posted November 27, 2016 Report Share Posted November 27, 2016 You ought to have burned a hole in the floor below the carpet by now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freespace2dotcom Posted November 27, 2016 Report Share Posted November 27, 2016 Oh, please, between all of us, we've likely burned through the concrete foundation of the building and are slowly making our way to bedrock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metis Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 Almost at the end of November, Legate. Has the artwork been send in yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted November 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 Metis; Not yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metis Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 *Sigh* This really isn't helping with getting the Beta out in a reasonable amount of time, huh ? How long do you think the community will have to test it anyhow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted November 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 Metis; A week or two, I would think. We'll see how it goes- they are working through an issue with loading other people's saves at the moment, and that definitely has to be resolved.

Metis Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 I don't intend to make a habit of loading other people's saves too often, but that's a function that sounds like it should work, yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freespace2dotcom Posted November 29, 2016 Report Share Posted November 29, 2016 Well, the point of the matter is, since the game has to be able to load any save, given that people have all sorts of characters, it would be really bad if it choked on loading yours or mine randomly based on a bug! Yes, very important to get it to work. Question, Legate! How will this beta of DLC17 come to fruition? Will we have to apply it to our installed game? I would rather not do that with a potentially unstable build if possible, but I don't see much alternative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted November 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2016 Free; I think it would just be similar to how we have released DLC in the past, so you would either want to have a second installation, or you will have to overwrite your normal copy.

Albert Posted November 29, 2016 Report Share Posted November 29, 2016 That reminds me... Will the Year 2 game importer or save game converter convert saves even if I somehow lost mods along the way? Maybe while switching computers, if I got the save file? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted November 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 albert; No, you will need the mods as I understand it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metis Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 ...Does that include the DLC 17 "mod"? Or DLC whatever mod, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted November 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 Metis; Yep, it's whatever mods your saved game used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freespace2dotcom Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 I think metis is asking that since all the dlc's are considered mods mechanically speaking, are we going to need them somehow, and how will that work? I personally could have sworn that there was a promise that Y2 would be innately compatible with all DLCs made by BCS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted November 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 Free; It's compatible, but you still need the DLCs. I don't know if they'll come with the Y2 install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 Then there is the ting about remembering which mods were used in different games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 Maybe if the converter had a mdoe where it only converts stats and the BCS Adventure exits/momories for getting you set for year 2. As long as you havn't got any extra abilities or spells or non-official stuff stick with you. Or is there a lot of background stuff that still needs to be added? A mostly flavor adventure with one boost to an official content skill to your character or familiar shouldn't be that much of a problem. Shouldn't it be enough to jsut scan the stats and compare to the last official DLC. A one off moded adventure shouldn't cause that much trouble one would think.

Metis Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 So now I have a question: If you create a modded DLC 17, which I plan to do since I need to for the modding I want, how is Y2 going to react? Assuming that you feed it the same modded DLC, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted November 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 Metis; I *think*, as long as you have it, it should be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
