Re: Update To Version 3.08 Of Dominions 3 Today!
Yes, that's great, thanks!
Can anyone please give me advice on whether to update now, if I'm involved in 3 different MP games. |
Re: Update To Version 3.08 Of Dominions 3 Today!
I wouldn't try using 3.08 in an MP game that hasn't upgraded.
Make a copy of the 3.06 version so you can switch back and forth depending on the game. It will also help if there are game breaking bugs in the patch. |

DO NOT attempt to do your MP turns with 3.08 until the host as upgraded, you will crash the server and after do you turn again with 3.06. Thanks Illwinter/Shrapnel for another great patch. |

Re: Update To Version 3.08 Of Dominions 3 Today!
One reason for upgrading as soon as possible is the Y-fix mentioned in the middle of that list. That's the one that got marked GUI Special in the shortlist. Essentially it allowed anyone to locate all capitals on the first turn by checking each province on the map by selecting them and using the y-key shortcut. If the province had a castle, the castle icon was visible in the castle icon slot even though did not see castle type or anything else about the province.
It's verifiably fixed in 3.08, so no more beelining for the neighboring capitol with a bless or elephant rush without scouting first. DB update to follow sometime next week. The issues shortlist will also be updated and reorganized as soon as I have time, meaning next week or later. |
