A New Dawn Beta Builds

Hi Afforess,

Unfortunately I am also having trouble with the 2.0 beta 1 installer. After pressing "Next" the installer moves to the "Installing..." screen, but there is no progress after several minutes.

I'm running Win7 64 bit and have the .NET 4 runtime installed, and I am installing with Admin rights. Is there any more info (Log files, screen shot, etc.) that I can provide to help troubleshoot this issue?

Thanks again for the update - really looking forward to playing around with it!

Yep, it is indeed broken. Mind testing this one out for me?

Ill dl it and give it a try for you.

Hey you should incorporate all of zulu's art its really cool how all the individual civs have unique art for there units.

--- It installed, after it finished got a popup saying this did not install properly coz of compatibility with version of windows.. I just chose the 'it installed probably - fark off' option ;)
 
Yey! Testing this, hopefully stable enough to complete my game (so far lost my both RoM and AND games).

At first installer didn't work, said it needs .NET Framework 4, so installed that and then it went smooth.
 
Beta 2 is up, with some fixes and most importantly, a working installer!

:p

Aforess I can confirm the new installer works. And the odd CTD bug has been squashed it appears.

Kudos again for this excellent mod. I shall push on and see what shakes. :goodjob:

This save crashes the next turn

Also while the AI now builds nukes, they are still to rare for my taste, oh and it should realy build more airplanes.

LOL. It crashed in... wait for it... debugging code that printed the tech choice to the logs. It didn't check against an AI who failed to select a tech.

I don't want to reupload 200mb, but will provide a link to the fixed DLL.

I also think I fixed some logic fails and improved AI building of air units and nukes too, let me know.
 
yeah i did it right after I posted the question lol guess i just wanted to be sure :)

Seems nice and stable btw no crashes really for me. I like the games pacing compared to c2c.
c2c can be a bit hmm tiresome, sometimes get to the point where its like omg whatever just build w/e.. stop bugging me lol
Plus you kinda crawl through the techs in c2c where this is a bit more exciting. Think it just comes down to taste, I restarted a game on epic speed with a larger map (around huge) and with no tech trading at all. Last game even with tech brokering disallowed I flew through the techs once I got going.

The difficulty level is a bit easier compared to c2c i find. Monarch is a challenge in c2c but emp is kinda the equivalent i think in this.

Thats my thoughts anyway.
 
Welcome back Afforess! I hope life has been treating you well :)

Looking forward to trying out AND 2.0 b2 this week!

Out of curiosity, what made you decide to go for a whole new AND as oppose to continuing the 1.76 betas? (If its posted somewhere else, if someone could just point me too it and save Afforess the time I'd be much obliged)
