patch 2.06 out

[Kristoffer O]

You must use the same mods in MP. If all agrees to enable 'Alexmod - Ulm' amd disable 'Alexmod - Marignon' the host can start a game with these mods.

The hosting computer is what really matters. If you try to play a modded game with a different mod on the client computer you will have either corrupted turns or false information i believe.

Minor gripe: Pre-patch the arrow keys would auto-repeat when held down. Now they do not. This is one "fix" we could have done without methinks.

They work for me...

I seem to be having more problems with the Shrapnel web site as I can't get the patch download to show - I have had odd problems like this with it before. I've tried deleting all my offline content but all I can see on the dom2 download page is the different demo options and the SDL library.

If someone could email me the patch that would be great - my provider is not concerned with attachments.

Cheers

New 2.06 bug: You can recruit while under siege. The gold you spend is used. But the units mysteriously never show up. Where do they go? I'm looking in my recycle bin...

I was testing luck, and Pythium (only scale: misfortune 3) got attacked by knights on turn 8, who took the capitol (defense: 30, plus initial troops patrolling). Ouch! With no way to recruit, they're out of the game for good. I don't know if troop should be recruitable under siege or not, but the gold shouldn't be used if they don't show up.

It has to be in your Cache.

But having my own server has some advantages so if you want to use this to snag the Windows update feel free.

Black Forest, Hoburg and Trollheim

I think these are perfect. Black Forest is great to play with and a definate good choice for a theme. Hoburg and Trollheim are very interesting but not really theme material. Much better as mods. Thank You Illwinter.

I think Black Forest has replaced my favorite "sneaking armies" choices of Pangea and Man(Tuatha)

This was true in v 2.02 as well.

New 2.06 bug: The deepest cave in the province can be found twice. I suggest the second one be called "The Second-Deepest Cave In The Province"
