Realistic expectation of new version

Maybe I got the wrong idea last month when there was a flurry of activity and posts regarding how this project would be getting an update in the near future? Is this another situation like the end of last year? Is Item Revisions cursed?

I'd wanna know that too man. Afaik he only things stopping the release are:

- compatibility checks (e.g. it's already compatible with BGT but Mike wanted to do some stuff to improve it someway)

- readme (*)

- Arda's eventual refinements (afaik the version he uploaded and got leaked is ok, but he may had something to do with the reorganized install options)

 

(*) I thought Mike was going to handle it, but if it remains the only thing left to do, I'm tempted to try handling it myself (though I'm not good at it).

 

Actually, if you request a beta access from Demi, you get the final version to what comes to the item changes, they are not fully translated etc but that's a beta for you...

I'm ok doing it with players I trust, like those who are helping me beta testing KR, but I don't want another Vxyz beta/alpha IR to start circulating too much.

I really would like to start a new walkthrough in BG2EE with SR (V3?), IR (V4?), KR (20) + Rouge Rebalance & Unfinished Business. So if it is around the corner I happly wait.

Also if this combination is ok for beta testing, I would like to apply for it. Please let me know what you think.

Unfortunately. KR Beta 20 has some bugs (nothing gamebreaking, but some stuff won't work properly) you should fix via an editor. If Demi is fine I can fix it an upload it somewhere for downloading

Well, I would actually welcome some testing for both IR and SR new versions but only in a closed form (no public link).

 

IR is ready for that unless Arda still need to work on the installation (testers can live without a cool-looking readme imo). Give me a couple of days and I'll do my best to provide a usable SR version too for this weekend.

 

P.S I cannot guarantee the following instead, but among the secret stuff I worked on the last few weeks there are the revised thief and relative kits. If I manage to package them within this week I'd be grateful if you test them instead of RR's ones.

Can you post on KR's forums any issue you have encountered? I'm willing to work on it asap.

Which is why I IMPlied/IMPcluded your name and pointed to your direction, so you could receive more PM(I)'s. Yes, this post was brought to you by the bad Imp jokes association.

Make a note that it could be a little harder for Darkersun to contact you as I would remember the forum needs the member profile and 5 posts to be approved to send PMs, while his(assuming it's he, it could be she, should it matter) profile is still "Awaiting Authorisation" and there's tons of things that can interfere there. Is there any other way to contact you ? If you want, you could just make a temporary Email address and link it to this topic... ouh and I promise not to send any Imp related porn to that address ... devil.gifdevil.gifdevil.gifdevil.gif Yes, indeed that was again a joke.

I'm not sure why I'm still awaiting authorisation, because I use this account some months now. (osted some feedback on KR a while ago^^).

If the new Thiefs are there I'm happy to try them :)

 

Should it be ok to use the rest of RR or should I leave RR out of the loop completly ?

For sharing the beta, maybe we can use google or something?

I'd also wanna test and play BG series with those Revisions mods, especially the new KR that includes revisions for thieves!

Jarno is right about the e-mail, the available Revisions mods still display an old e-mail of mine which I no longer use by ages.

 

No idea why you got no authorisation, I hope you get it soon, else I'll find a way to let you contact me directly.

 

Regarding RR, I have nothing against its use, it's a top quality mod, I was just saying that I'd like KR's thieves to be used instead of RR's ones if I manage to package them.

KR's beta will be "open" as always, but keep in mind that unlike IR and SR, which are in a way more polished state, KR is in a real beta stage as you can guess by the huge changelogs we have for every update.

Of course I know that. I'd just want to get a chance for contributing KR as much as I can by testing and playing it myself.

@Beta testers, unfortunately Arda is ignoring my PMs. :( I hope to have news from him during this weekend but don't worry both IR and SR are around the corner, especially because I'm at home most of the next week, and we may opt for testing even without a fully update setup for now. For those interesed on KR, I think I'll take the next week to include thieves, but I may release a new version sooner to fix the current bugs and implement a few tweaks.

 

Anyway, there's a bigger than expected changelog update incoming, as well as busy modding week. :)

 

FWIW, I was also thinking of doing a saga playthrough, am not afraid of beta software, and know how to compile a bug report.

Thanks, any help to quickly catch all eventual issues is welcome.

I am sure Ardanis is just busy and can not reply to PMs.

 

Good luck with pushing out IR and SR! Myself, I am truly hoping for Mike's comeback since he is the one taking care of the compatibility with BGT.
