Old "Patches, Hot Fixes" Thread

[wardrake]

The new game background options has not been addressed.

Background Name: Omen: The Storm "By selecting this Nackground,..." typo: it should be Background.

 

Secondly, the tooltip in stress and vitality do have different fonts applied(size and thickness)

Third, Ive found that the tooltip over the encumbrance and concealment attribute do not have any text, is it intended?... hehe

Yes, thanks, and corrected.

The Background spelling is not a code fix- that will be corrected in DLC 2.

 

For Stress and Vitality (and Encumbrance and Concealment), these are not yet fully integrated into the system which is why they are different.

 

Thanks!

Patch 8a Hotfix has been released, and can be found here:

 

Note: This hotfix is intended to help Players using complex Spells and Abilities in Patch 8. We recommend that you use it only if you are making use of these kinds of actions.

 

Instructions: Copy all files and place into your Academagia install folder (same folder as Academagia.exe). Please overwrite all files.

 

This Patch covers these issues:

 

1) Target Inheritance again works correctly.

 

Special thanks to the following Academagians who originally suggested or raised awareness of these:

Considering the rate you're pushing out patches, you'd have made a new game by now =<

Not quite *that* fast.

Any chance of another update on Impulse?

[Schwarzbart]

Only the Patches that contain a new DLC /CP where forwarded to impulse so fare.

To realy keep up to date you have to use the patches from this Forum and they work without any Problem with the Impulse version.

You can manually install the updates, they are compatible with Impulse version.

Wewt! This is the answer I was searching (and hoping) for

 

Looking forward to all the additions and fixes from patch 6-8, and the improvements here for patch 9 sound nice too but I wouldn't even mind if this patch was delayed another week. Then again, that a dev like this would delay such a patch that long after giving an expectation date could almost be called wishful thinking

Consolidated Patch 9 has been released, and can be found here:

 

Instructions: Copy all files and place into your Academagia install folder (same folder as Academagia.exe). For example: C:\Program Files\Academagia\Mods\Content.mdm (Please overwrite all files.)

Important: You must begin a new game in order to make use of the Content Patch/DLC. When you begin a new game, simply check 'Content Package 2' under mods, and proceed.

 

Before you Install: Patch 9 does not require you to create a new game, but if you wish to have certain fixes, you will need to create a new one. This Patch is cumulative with all previous Patches.

 

This Patch adds these features:

 

1) You are now able to save a Day's Actions into a 'Slot', and then use those stored Actions on a future Day:

 

a) You must be in the Confirmation Window, if you want to save specific Choices. Otherwise, you can use this feature from the Calendar Window and save only general actions.

Pressing F1-F5 saves a Day's Actions into a Slot.

c) Pressing CTRL+F1-F5 replaces the current Day's Actions with the ones stored in the Slot.

d) The graphical implementation will arrive in Patch 10.

e) In Patch 10 you will be able to tell what Actions are stored in a Slot, by mousing over a graphic.

f) Some Actions cannot be replaced or stored: Detention, Hall Sessions, Praetexta Court, Illness, etc.

 

2) Roll Over Information for Actions, Abilities, Spells and Preparation Locations now does not reset unless you move the mouse from them.

Works like a charm, but I wonder, why it's CTRL+Fx to Load, not to Save? Typically you are loading actions much more often than saving them...

[Legate of Mineta]

Elwin;

 

It's a fair point, actually. I think we'll probably invert the keys in Patch 10, when the graphical implementation is released.

 

Thanks!

[Ranielle Limeleaf]

Oh joy, brings tears to my relatively fresh out of adolescence eyes. To see it come this far. But it's never really over, is it? There are always more features to add, bugs to fix, content to add.. and hopefully novels!

[Leeskra]

Since the patches are consolidated, does it also include the DLC and Content Packs 1 and 2? o.o

 

Thank you for an incredible game.

[Legate of Mineta]

Leeskra;

 

They do indeed! Each Patch is cumulative, which means that all prior updates and fixes are carried forward- just easier for the Player that way.

[Leeskra]

You are awesome/incredible and extremely considerate. ^____________________________________^

PLEASE MAKE MORE GAMES. >=)

 

It honestly took me some time to get used to the mostly text aspect of the game (long time since I used to MUD), but once you get into it... man =D

 

I was used to Japanese games like Princess Maker where you would build stats and go on adventures, but they were mostly visual based.

Thank you

Thanks for the encouragement! We are already working on Year 2 as well as some other secret projects.

 

Enjoy the game!

Secret Project 1:

 

Chicken Frying simulation. Especially Black Chicken. Bwahahaha.

 

Yes yes I'm evil.

[Burnheart]

[wardrake]

Me too, me too, what are the secret projects of BCS.... weee

[Legate of Mineta]

That would be telling.

[Schwarzbart]

Lol the text file for Patch 9 was named Academagia Patch 10.txt!

[Legate of Mineta]

I know! I was hoping that would sneak by you.
