Eschalon: Book II version 1.03 BETA Available!
Here is the release information and download link for version 1.03. This is the code base for the Mac and Linux version, so you Windows users can help out by testing it before we release it!
1.03 Change list:
- Fixed several more typos and grammar problems.
- Fixed a rare condition that sometimes caused a crash on map loads (this includes Quick Traveling).
- Fixed an issue where player effect durations over 256 turns long were not beings saved properly.
- Fixed stat display issue on the final score screen, and improved screen layout.
- Encumbrance updated properly after you dump torches.
- Avatar graphics are updated properly if you overcharge and item and destroy it.
- A higher resolution world map is now included with downloadable game.
Fixes in "final" version of 1.03:
- Rare crash that happens when your player is facing NW and dies.
- Triggering trap while trying to pick lock properly fails True Thief Challenge.
- Fixed a miscalculation with the way MP and HP are gained at level-up.
- Fixed an odd little bug involving the swapping of rings when multiples of the same kind are involved.
There is important information about saving your game with 1.03: you cannot go back to playing an older version once you start playing 1.03 or later. More info here: http://www.basiliskgames.com/forums/vie ... =20&t=3379

Cyrillic support is ALREADY IN the game.
The problem is you are hacking it and not working WITH ME.

I finish downloading the beta within 10 mins, thanks!
However when 1.03 is officially released, please consider having mirrors that allow multiple connections as previously it took me 1 1/2 - 2 hrs just to download official 1.02 from the mirrors.
Thank you.

Sorry to be a bother, but when clicking the download link, I get a "Error 404 - page not found"
I´m going to sleep now, so I´ll just try again when I wake up.

Yep, that is because I was uploading the 1.03 final version.
The link in the top is active now with what I consider to be the final version. Everyone should still consider it a "beta" until Wednesday (26th) when the Mac and Linux versions are released. Baring any major bugs, the code base will remain as-is and be good for release.
I've also added in the additional changes (see change list in the top of this thread) and fixed pretty much every last minute typo that was posted.

Ah, now it makes sense why the game crashed when the Lorewitch acolytes killed me AND when I died of poisoning earlier on. I was facing NW both times.BasiliskWrangler wrote:Fixes in "final" version of 1.03:

This latest version still says that lock picking depends on intelligence in the character creation screen.

I wondered where that was at. I've just changed it- there is obviously going to have to be one last update before the actual release on Wednesday.Buckets wrote:This latest version still says that lock picking depends on intelligence in the character creation screen.

Is there a way to use this install for the Impulse version or are we stuck waiting to update through Impulse? Any clue how long it should take to get the update to Impulse once it's out of beta? Thanks much

We have just "locked down" the final 1.03 version. It will go online Wednesday when the Mac and Linux versions go out.
Once our version is out, we will contact other distributors and send them copies- they usually have their version online 48 hours after they receive it, but some may take longer.
