FOG2 Medieval v1.5.12 update is now available (changelog)

Post by rbodleyscott »

The version v1.5.12 update has been released:

STEAM and GOG builds should update automatically.

Standalone build will require you to run an updater. If the "Check for Updates" button does not work for you, you can download the updater here:

Changelog:

Version 1.5.12

• ELO Ranking System
  • o An ELO ranking system has been added for MP games.
    o This is optional and challenges can be set as ranked or unranked.
    o A green ranked game symbol appears in the MP lobby for ranked games.
    o Ranked challenges show the challenger’s current ELO rating in the “Accept Challenge” Tab.
    o On-going ranked challenges show both players’ rankings (at the time the challenge was accepted) in the tooltip in the “My Games” tabs. ELO scoring when the game is completed depends on these values.
    o A player’s ranking starts at 1000 and then goes up or down depending on victories or defeats in ranked games. The amount it goes up or down depends on the relative existing rankings of the two players at the time when the challenge was accepted.
    o There are separate ELO rankings for FOG2 Medieval, FOG2 Ancients and any other games using the system.
    o ELO rankings for FOG2 Medieval are shown here: https://www.slitherine.com/leaderboard/ ... i-medieval
(Until there are some results in, the Elo rankings page will just show "The leaderboard is on maintenance, please wait")

• Time Warp:
  • o Added Swifter than Eagles armies to Time Warp modules.
• Field of Glory Kingdoms Beta:
  • o If you are in the Kingdoms beta, and have exported a battle, the Kingdoms Battle button will appear in the Battles menu. Click on it to play your Kingdoms battle and export the result.
    o Currently Kingdoms will not restart automatically, you will need to restart it manually.
• MP Chat Box:
  • o This now allows text in the chat box to be selected and copied to the Windows clipboard using CTRL-C. It can then be pasted into other documents using CTRL-V.
    o It also allows CTRL-V pasting from the clipboard to the chat box.
• Army Lists:
  • o Indian (Muslim) and Indian (Rajput) lists revised.
    o Chagatai list start date changed to 1266.
• Main game points changes (also in Time Warp):
  • o Heavy Artillery (Trebuchets and Bombards) from 36 to 40.
    o Light Artillery (Bolt Shooters and Light Guns) from 24 to 30.
• Time Warp Points changes:
  • o Reduced cost of some chariots:
    •  Superior light chariots (bow) to 40.
       Average light chariots (bow) to 30.
       Superior heavy chariots (bow) to 54.
       Superior heavy chariots (light spear) to 48.
       Scythed chariots to 30.
       Light Spear Light Chariots not reduced in cost, as they are cheap enough already.
    o Corrected incorrect points cost:
    •  Lydian armoured hoplites to 48
• Key Bindings:
  • o Added R (Zoom in) and F (Zoom out) to the list of customisable Key Bindings.
• Bug Fixes:
  • o Fixed issue of small units of pre-dismounted MAA in Genoese army (arrived by ship without horses) being able to remount at Deployment.
    o Fixed Hot Seat bug whereby rear line side B infantry got assigned to Team 7 in non-enemy-fortified battle. (Only mattered if HotSeat turned off after side B deployment, as AI would not work as intended).
    o Anglo-Saxon Hirdsmen (Time Warp) cost increased from 57 to 61.
    o Fixed bug that prevented men from stepping forward correctly when unit is attacked in rear right corner.
    o Fixed Vijayanagaran general names.
    o Corrected dismounted name of Best-Equipped Cavalry.

Hi,
After download the file, when I try to install the update, the system says that I dont have the game installed.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks

Do you have the standalone Slitherine version of the game installed? (The updater is not needed for the STEAM and GOG builds, they should update automatically)
