0.4 broken
« on: December 29, 2010, 03:49:38 AM »
Something went wrong when we packed together 0.4
Known issues curretly are:
-many sounds are missing
-client crashes when using any kind of jump jets

We are in progress of fixing this, but it will most likely take a while. Don't expect a fix within the next couple hours.
There comes a point where the talking must stop, and people have to do actual work.

If we're still downloading should we continue or stop?

EDIT: through the updater I mean

I'd continue to DL cause the fix will probably be just a hot fix pushed through the updater.

Either way.  I am glad to see it is out, and I can not see this taking too long to fix, hopefully.

If you stop downloading for the next two hours you probably going to speed up the fixing process.

If I pause the download is that enough or would you rather we all cancelled it and started again later?

Is it possible to have both the 0.4.0 for crysis and crysis wars installed so that we can switch from one to the other depending on whim?

Yes! There is two options to install: Crysis (vanilla) and/or Crysis Wars. They are installed to each location respectively.

One last post before I go to bed...

Is it possible to have both the 0.4.0 for crysis and crysis wars installed so that we can switch from one to the other depending on whim?

As Kit said, it is possible.
but since they're basically the same except for the main .dlls I think you may also set up a symlink from one directory to the other, I'm not sure whether the betalauncher will switch the dlls automatically or if that needs to be done manually...
If at first you don't succeed try again, and if you don't try again, you'll be hit in the face with a shovel!

I see... ~80% so far

How many in-game servers have started running 0.4.0 as of now? If 0.3.2 is still active on good servers than we could just keep playing that..?
My 0.3.2 installation is sitting in the Recycle Bin, just a simple matter of restoring it and removing 0.4.0 until hotfix comes around.

Mine's paused right now. I have no idea if that's what they wanted but I don't really want to cancel unless they tell me to.

The autoupdater is effectively a torrent client with a built in torrent, even if you cancel it and restart it later, you wont lose your progress.

So what should we do then?

I'd either just pause it and close the program (you can resume anytime I checked) or pause it and leave it running so that you keep seeding if that's how the program works. Even if we have to delete it later and start again there's no harm in keeping the half downloaded file for now.
