Patch Notes Update Beta Update 1.04 Now Available

[wstephenson]

Both my attempts to hyperspace from I Bootis to Eranin after updating today resulted in the game hanging as soon as the countdown expired - frozen screen, audio looping, ctrl-alt-del to solve after several minutes' wait.

In the words of the great Michael Brookes....

there will be news "soon".

Does Michael let you wear his Soon-T-shirt as well Adam?

I reckon it'll take a while to update all the servers to 1.04.

Hopefully it will be stable by the time I've had my tea tonight

- Insurance screen occasionally not being displayed after ship was destroyed.
- Very occasional crash when outfitting weapons.
- Game occasionally getting stuck in the shipyard when buying a new ship.
- Improvements to joining populated multiplayer islands.

Thanks for all the devs! Will test it tonight.

Great news, a hotfix like this was really needed!
The insurance- and outfitting-bug topics were growing page after page, so it was good to focus on these showstoppers.

Everytime I read a post written by you I can't help but to "hear" it in my head being read with Andy Pipkin's voice

The elephants are stored in repositories, when there is a conflict between cloned heads then rebasing the sandbox is required. They can't tell you how many elephants they have but I checked them all out and I checked them all in again.

Ok, that makes sense. I was just worried for a moment because my auntie is an elephant.

lol

Rumor has it that they're placed up on the roof to bask in this glowy-ball-thing in the sky.

Computer people outside.... now I know you're lying...

Yeah I know!

Ok, from now on, I'll hear Lou's voice coming from YOUR posts

Mmmm
I was hoping for the new oculus rift sdk support
Please keep the lead it produces a lot of publicity

- Very occasional crash when outfitting weapons.

Is this where the game physically froze or is it the 401 error?

Thanks!

(I tried using search but "401" is too few words and "Error" came up with nothing so I assume it hasn't been asked already, apologies if it has.)

 

[Stressfest]

Aaaargh...lost my custom bindings. Back to the drawing board tomorrow.

Mental note : make a backup

I think we deserve an explanation from FD about why they are keeping elephants in their basement, how many elephants they have and their excuse for beating them with branches.

Personally, I much prefer pachyderm. It's marketed better, it's got a much prettier skin and its yawn is much easier to control.

If FD don't sort out their elephant, I shall only be interested in pachyderm, and remaining on this forum to say that I am only interested in pachyderm.

 

[Darth Krayt]

Outfitting is broken for me - getting 401 errors.

Oh dear. I was already getting these 401 errors for half of the hardpoints on my Anaconda on Beta 1.03 until I sold and rebought it for a 3rd time.

You forgot about TM here...

Good morning commanders,

There is a new build available for download. Beta 1.04 is a minor interim release on the same development branch as 1.03, fixing a small number of niggling bugs, listed below.
We're still working very hard on the trunk for Beta 2 and will have news on this soon.

- Insurance screen occasionally not being displayed after ship was destroyed.
- Very occasional crash when outfitting weapons.
- Game occasionally getting stuck in the shipyard when buying a new ship.
- Improvements to joining populated multiplayer islands.

Thanks,
Adam

Good stuff. Can I have a few mil put into my account to cover all the credits lost?
