Might & Magic X - Legacy

05. September 2013

Erster (inoffizieller) Patch zur Early Access Version

Vor gut zwei Wochen wurde die Early Access Version von Might & Magic X: Legacy - eine Art Alpha-Version des Spiels - veröffentlicht. Zunächst nur für einen begrenzten Teilnehmerkreis, bestehend i.w. aus Vorbestellern der Deluxe Edition. Diese Alpha-Version ist naturgemäß alles andere als bugfrei, aber das ist ja eines der Hintergründe: Hinweise aus der Community zu Bugs etc. zu erhalten.

Gestern abend wurde nun ein erster Patch veröffentlicht, der eine Reihe von Problemen beseitigen soll, hier die komplette Changelog:

  • Resting and conditions: The following conditions are now removed by simple resting:
    • Weak
    • Paralyzed
    • Feebleminded
    • Asleep
    • Unconscious
  • Restocking of shop items now available!
  • Cure in temple is also resetting the resting timer, so that the party cannot get weak directly after cure again (player feedback implemented).
  • Time management in MMX has been changed according to player feedback to see how it feels like (still WIP).
    • Time spent per turn has been updated as follows:
      • City: 1 minute per turn
      • Dungeon: 2 minutes per turn
      • Outdoor: 5 minutes per turn
  • Item break chance is now applied as designed (break chance is not checked on each fight action anymore)
  • Actions can no longer be removed from action bar by simple drag and drop as it confused players. It is now only possible to overwrite them with other actions.
  • New identify item logic for merchants is added (UI instead of just a dialogue option)
  • Potions can now be consumed by dropping the potion on the character portrait
  • Hireling inventory implemented (Mule/Aonbarr)
  • Voice overs for Narrator and Dunstan in Act 1 added
  • Video Player setting workarround added especially for those players, who had difficulties installing the game (black screen reports) and for whom deactivating k-light codec and updating WMV player did not work:
    • videodecoder parameter added to config. txt (next to the save games)
    • Can be configured with the following value: none = videos are disabled in the entire build
    • Please note that the team is currently working on a new video solution (bink)
  • Several screens and popups now have hotkey shortcuts for closing/canceling (escape) and confirmation (space/return). Space can no longer be used within save game name (player feedback). Conversations can now also be left with escape.

Es ist deshalb ein inoffizieller Patch, da er nicht alle ansonsten erforderlichen Prüfungen durchlaufen hat und es auch nicht ausgeschlossen werden kann, dass durch den Patch neue Bugs entstehen.

Vor dem Einspielen des Patches sollte man seine Savegames separat sichern, da Probleme mit älteren Savegames nicht ausgeschlossen werden können.
