Do we patch? When?

[DaveShack]

As many are already aware, the new patch is out.

Do we patch the demogame? When?

I vote yes and ASAP. The pitboss will need to be patched to accomodate players with many patched MP games. I can do that by making a dual install, but then all the pitboss players would need dual installs too. Better to just patch and be done with it IMO.

However, it will be interesting to see when the HOF mod is available for 3.17.

How will patching and the HOF Mod work together?

I suggest playing saturday's TC first, we'll see after that.

Besides, there's still the succession game, that's in 3.13 too. Hopefully, it'll soon be over though

 

[thecommonnate]

I agree with dutchfire play the next TC without.

 

[civplayah]

I agree, we should wait to patch.

 

[DaveShack]

Well, as soon as possible but it's questionable given the HoF mod what possible means.

 

[thecommonnate]

Yeah, I would just like to finally get this TC in without any problems. Its been awhile.

 

[Joe Harker]

I am not patching until after tomorrow, then i am going to try a dual install after it, i just don't want to try doing a dual install today and muck it up before tomorrows seesion and not be able to play.

Unfortunately in order to patch, the new version of the HOF mod must be released. I cannot state an expected date of release, but I can say that we are currently working on it.

I would suggest a dual-install.

... As far as I've heard, the patch is not close to optimal, with flaws from copypasting XML, culture and espionage points not showing up and Collateral damage flaws. I suggest we keep playing 3.13.

This could be due to the fact that I have very sparse free space on my HD (not even enough to patch, certainly not to dual install), but please consider the suggestion any way.

 

[Joe Harker]

^^^ Well i am sure there will be plenty of peope complaining, informing us about any flaws in the programming, ultimatly i would like to patch and if there are any faults with any luck there will be a unoffical patch to patch the patch

(Doesn't the current HOF mod contains Bhurics unoffical patch?)

(Doesn't the current HOF mod contains Bhurics unoffical patch?)

Yes and no. We included his fixes we felt kept with the spirit of the game and did not provide spoiler info. So yes quite a few of Bhruic's items are in the current version of the HOF mod, but not all of them.
