SPM v. 0.7.4 released + hotfix info

Post by Nacho84 »

Hello all,

The latest update for SPM has gone live, so feel free to grab it using the autoupdate tool. Alternatively, you can download it from this link and install it manually.

The latest patch includes lots of bugfixes and the content for all 14 mission configurations from the Gemini program. On top of that, we have moved the data files out of the binary data bundles, which means you can now edit things using a regular text editor. You can find the full changelog here.

A silly bug was reported here. Apologies for this, a wrongly named asset made its way into the last build. The fix will make it into the next patch (0.7.5). In the meantime, feel free to grab this hotfix. Just decompress it and overwrite the contents of your installation directory with the new files.


Cheers,

Downloading now. Will begin a new save and begin trying to break the game (without editing any of the data files, can mess around with those later)

I've a problem with updating the game. A similar problem was with 0.73:

"Unable to download file. An error occurred while trying to open an FTP file.

Unfortunately, as a new user I can't add pictures so please link to update :wink:

Hello Teserak,

Sad to hear that. Try grabbing the patch from ftp://ftp.matrixgames.com/pub/BuzzAldri ... p-v074.zip. I've just tested it and the link works, so you should be fine.

I am also unable to get updater to work. The updater will start and spend 10 minutes downloading the update. However, once the download is finished I get an error message that says, "An error occurred when downloading information from the server."

Hello ths921110,

Can you try downloading it from ftp://ftp.matrixgames.com/pub/BuzzAldri ... p-v074.zip and installing it manually?

Hehehe, big file! We're using Unity at the moment, and all the common assets get bundled into a big file named "resources", which unfortunately I need to recreate all over again and redistribute even for the slightest change.

At some point I'll change that so that the information gets stored into the so-called "asset bundles".
