Hubert Cater Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 I've just posted a hotfix for the v1.03 patch in the Battlefront repository found here: http://www.battlefront.com/index.php?option=com_remository&Itemid=314&func=fileinfo&id=3079 Please install the v1.03 patch first prior to applying this hotfix as the hotfix is not all inclusive. The hotfix will need to be extracted first from the ZIP file and then installed via the installer by double clicking the hotfix EXE installer file. The hotfix includes the following CTD corrections: - fixed a controlled unit movement error (patrat618) - fixed a rare submarine movement error when the sub is in Silent mode and passes near hidden enemy Destroyers that may interrupt the movement path (rjh1971) Hubert
lhughes41 Posted April 12, 2014 Posted April 12, 2014 First thanks for fix. Second word of warning, opponents will need to install as well as you, else creates load error.
4th Bn 66th Reg Posted April 12, 2014 Posted April 12, 2014 Do I need to install the hotfix before doing a turn? It would seem to me that you would have to?
lhughes41 Posted April 16, 2014 Posted April 16, 2014 They still work but both sides of the game must upgrade.
Hubert Cater Posted April 17, 2014 Author Posted April 17, 2014 Do I need to install the hotfix before doing a turn? It would seem to me that you would have to? Yes, simply close the game, install the hotfix, and then reopen the game and continue as you normally would as the hotfix is backwards compatible with v1.03 saved games. Hubert
Amona Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 Hi Hubert. Seems I am to stupid to install the hotfix. I followed your instructions, but instead of installing the exe just makes a new folder of AOD inside my AOD installation with the exe. What am I doing wrong? The hotfix is definitly not installed, as I keep getting file read errors from opponnts turns.
Caustic Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 Hello - Installed the hotfix today - silent sub movement into hidden enemy destroyers was causing the game to freeze - and now I get a new error during the AI's next turn. [09/24/2014 9:43:48; 6.1.7601; 1680x1050x32(0); v1.03 AoD] FAILED(animate_recon_spotting): Segmentation violation [09/25/2014 4:57:07; 6.1.7601; 1680x1050x32(0); v1.03.1 AoD] FAILED(animate_recon_spotting): Segmentation violation [09/25/2014 5:09:24; 6.1.7601; 1680x1050x32(0); v1.03.1 AoD] FAILED(animate_recon_spotting): Segmentation violation Game crashes at this point. Is there a way to uninstall the patch and go back to 1.03? I can't seem to find an uninstaller for the hotfix. Is there a way - command line option, renaming and replacing a file, whatever - to roll back? If there's anything I can do to help resolve let me know. Caustic
Hubert Cater Posted September 25, 2014 Author Posted September 25, 2014 Hi Caustic, Sorry to hear about the trouble. We've also come across this bug and unfortunately it would also appear in the pre hotfix version so no advantage to rolling back. This is fixed on our end and I could release another hotfix as needed. Can you send me the turn that is causing this crash and once I confirm that the current fix on our end resolves this I'll release a new v1.03.2 Hotfix. Please send to support@furysoftware.com Thanks, Hubert
Caustic Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 Thanks Hubert! The save file has been emailed. The mail will be from afinley01@gmail.com. The save is about 3.5 megs, zipped. All you need to do is end the player turn and let the AI's turn commence. Thanks, Aidan
Hubert Cater Posted September 25, 2014 Author Posted September 25, 2014 Thanks and I will take a look
