Is 1.0X patch coming out today or not?

from GalCiv2 Forums
Hey StarDock,

Just wondering when that promised 1.0X patch is coming out? No worries, just curious...thought I'd read that it would be out today. Obviously there is still plenty of time left in the day but it's winding down so was wondering if we'd see it or not?

Woohoo Friday!

Maybe.

We've been testing it and making tweaks.  We had to change the way ships are handled and that's been a lot of work.

Previously, ship designs were not kept between versions of the game. So when you'd update the game, you'd lose your ships.

That is still going to be the case THIS TIME. But this version implements its own versioning for the ship designs so that subsequent updates won't require ship re-designs.  But doing that required more work than we had anticipated.

We felt given the amount of effort people are putting into ship designs that we had to change the way we were handling the integrity versioning system to be independent of the overall game version.  We don't want people to have to redesign their ships every time we do an update.

And for those that have CTD issues and the game is unplayable, you can always try the preliminary build Frogboy posted in a different thread. Probably not worth it just for the social production fix, but if your computer keeps crashing....
