: Sandstorm after 7.1.4

[shiroronin]

I believe is't about time to play (finish) Sandstorm...END (-Sieg) is at the gates

So my questions are: Is Sandstorm bug free now ? Are there any critical / major / minor obstacles spotted?

Thanks in advance!

Is Sandstorm bug free now ?

What bugs do you remember with Sandstorm specifically?

[shiroronin]

I'm just before the Sandstorm (my first time)...so I'm curious about any bugs (that were not fixed) till today Or there are no bugs and I can play smoothly ?

Absolutely nothing was changed in the Sandstorm campaign from 6.1.9 to 7.1.4.
A simple file comparison showed differences in following campaign/scenario files, but don't ask me about details:

...so is Sandstorm bugs free ? (glitches don't matter )

[GabeKnight]

So my questions are: Is Sandstorm bug free now ? Are there any critical / major / minor obstacles spotted?

In my professional opinion: Yep and no.
(tested with v7.1.5beta2, above statement in regard to campaign/scenario evaluaton only; possible engine errors, minor stat deviations, and issues resulting from after-beta changes are explicitly excluded)

Talk about fine print!

[shiroronin]

Soooo Guys...will wait till the next patch When may we expect The 7.1.5 next week ? next month ?

[bru888]

I don't think I am violating any protocol by telling you that the next patch is a big one, encompassing many fixes that have been reported to the new bug database. They have a beta patch out which some of the regulars have been looking at and the plan seems to be that if all goes well, the new patch might be released in early to mid-January. What I say is unofficial, of course, so please bear that in mind.

Thanks! Sounds promising
