PROJECT: Playtest Thread III

[Unspeakable Horror]

You can download winRAR from the official site

http://www.rarlabs.com/

The RAR format is from them so...

It´s a trial for 30 days by the way.

I don't think the problem lies there either, I just think I need to understand it to understand where the problem does lie .

The SPRiskLevelStringTable is also used in spnewgamewindow.cpp and so far there are no reports that there is something wrong.

Yes. I noticed that too. But I suspect that the use there is superfluous and the result doesn't actually appear anywhere in the game...

Anyway, after a couple of days thinking about it I have an idea what to try next.

Maq,

Maybe you should add a link to the latest playtest build in your first post for a lot of thenew guys coming by...(atleast I didn't see it there)

[Maquiladora]

I added a link to the latest one, but do I need to link to the last playtest that is playable on more than one continent? Does that playtest support the mods?

[Maquiladora]

I just found Monarchy in a ruin and got this popup, any idea why it does that and in a different colour?

Using latest playtest.

[Marko Polo]

The same thing happens every time I have researched a new goverment, missing gov name and the question in white color.

[Ekmek]

Sorry I couldn't find the link because it was in the Martin quote so it didn't look like link.

Not Sure if we need to provide the other links, but then again customer service is what we are about!


PS anyone else notice that the latest playtest date on the start up still uses July 2004???

And anyone know how to disable the start up video? It wears me out as I test my tiles and sprites for errors....

Yes - use the command line argument "nointromovie" .

Thanks J, which file though?victorymovie.txt?

[Maquiladora]

You add it in the target line in a shortcut like

"D:\Games\CtP2 Playtest\ctp2_program\ctp\ctp2.exe" -nointromovie

[Ekmek]

Got It thanks Maq!

[Mirimunchkin]

E,
another way to skip the intromovie is to hit any key once the Load has completed.

[Ekmek]

thanks Mirimunchkin,I was doing that but just got aggitated because I was just starting a new game, looking around then exiting. And then repeat to see how things flowed with my tiiles (by the way I 've done a lot of tweaking to clean it up and it looks really good, I'll post the newest soon.)

[sekel]

Where can I download the latest Playtest???

And I´d also like to see all the current altered source code files (specialy if they are all together in a ZIP)

I only found an old version in the directory, and even this one seams very, very good.

thanks,

Felipe

Playtest is on the first page of this thread, but I feel generous: :
2004.12.28.CTP2.Playtest.rar


code BUT you have to download each individual piece done since then (thest of page 14 and 15 in the Altered Source Files thread)
2004.12.27.CTP2.ALL.zip
