Game Version
I'd like to update to 3.08, even though it will hurt me slightly with the sloth scales. I've got a couple other games on the go, and I'd like to avoid having to remember which client to run.
I guess we really need to hear from the Vanir, since they may be affected the most by the patch.

Re: Game Version
I agree, the Heims should really say if they want to play the game the "new" way or like they signed up for it. Vanheim, Helheim, hello? Oh, and hi Randvek!

Re: Game Version
Okay, I'll update the server for the next turn then. Just one reminder: Do not try to connect with a 3.08 client to the server unless the server says that your 3.06 client has a too low version number. Otherwise you'll crash the server.
To save me trouble I will not turn off the quickhosting, but generate a new turn with the 3.08 server as soon as the current turn is finished. Yes, that means that the current turn is going to be processed twice - once with the 3.06 server, once with the 3.08 server. Don't complain if you didn't receive that awesome hero, found that hidden lair full of gold or won that insane battle the first but not the second time...

Re: Game Version
The server is patched to 3.08 now. Anybody who downloaded the temporary new turn with the 3.06 client please delete their turn and download it again with a 3.08 client. If you are playing on other servers which are still using 3.06 then you might want to make a backup of these files before applying the patch so that you can revert: - army12.trs
- battlemaps/cave3.d3m
- battlemaps/cave2.d3m
- battlemaps/cave1.d3m
- dom3_amd64
- dom3_x86
- dom3.exe
- flag.trs
- misc.trs
- res.trs
Linux commandline steps to do that:
Code:
unzip -t dompatch308_linux.zip | grep "testing:" | sed "s/.*testing: //" | sed "s/[ ]*OK//" | grep -e "[^/]$" | xargs tar czvf domprev308.tgz
If anybody has problems besides not being able to connect before applying the patch, please post about them here. I have backups...
