UC: A World Apart Patch Glitch [Aug 31, 2005, 4:39 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
3000AD sends along word on a glitch with the initial release of the version
1.00.03 auto-update for Universal Combat: A World Apart. Here's word on the
problem, and the updated update, which does not iterate the game's version
number:
Yesterday we released the v1.00.03 patch to the public via the in-game patch Updater. We have since discovered that an incorrect character asset was included in the original game distribution. This would cause one of the Instant Action scenarios (IA0113) which uses that asset, to fail upon loading.
To this end, we have re-issued this patch today and corrected this problem.
For those who have not yet updated their version, running the in-game Updater will download the new version.
For those who have already updated their version, the steps described in the v1.00.03 section of the recently updated version control file show how to force the Updater to re-download and re-apply the patch.
We apologize for this error. Hope you are enjoying the game as much as we enjoyed developing it.
I hate to rain on any perfectly good dsmart flamewar, but this really seems like a pretty simple and honest mistake which is fairly easily remedied.
Course, the link is broken in the article, and even when corrected I don't see that file on 3000AD's server
And, dsmart; you haven't adequately explained your reasoning for inconveniencing your custumers instead of your betatesters. It is a basic tennent in the mod-community
OK, c'mon. I've been around the mod community since almost the beginning and there are countless of mods with lousy installers and releases. I've done it myself, at least twice. Once I even had other people test the installer but they already had the file I forgot to include!
Now feel free to proceed.
