I mean I have a lot of saves (all slots full) and I wouldn't want to lose them because of the new patch. Some of them are pretty near the end so I was wondering, what happens to saved games after upgrading with the upcoming patch ?

Nothing... Don?t worry your saves wont be touched. You can continue to play from the saves, no problema [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img] Now go to work, we need results quickly... [img]images/smiles/icon_razz.gif[/img] [ May 24, 2002: Message edited by: J.P. ]</p>

Yes sir. I'll go right away sir. So you got the mail working? [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img] Where do I report any bugs or stuff ?? Here or to your mail ?

Here. Post all your doubts in here so the Korax Team can provide you support. I?m NOT from the Korax Development Team, so please don?t send me anything, OK? Get to work now! [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

Yes, he is... I sent him a KMod 2.2 for testing, the kid was damn anxious...and he seems to be able to help. So, Merton, from now on, please take care of things with Janis, he will guide you, OK? [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]

Dunno about savegame compatibility between 2.1 and 2.2. I know there is a 100% compatibility between 1.0 and 1.1, incompatibility between 1.x and 2.x. I think 2.1 is also incompatible with 2.0, but I'm not sure. What I know though that demos aren't compatible between 2.1 and 2.2 so I wasted about half a day on something that can't be used in the final version of KMOD. [img]images/smiles/icon_sad.gif[/img]

Don?t worry RambOrc, the KMod 2.2 does?nt touch the v2.1 saves... I can assure you that. No problema at all. Both in Hexen and in Death Kings... [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]

Yes, kmod 2.2 savegames are 100% compatible with 2.0 and 2.1. Demo compatibility - actually they already were runing out of sync (at least they did for me).

I noticed that too. It seems that the experience you get in the demos is also random. This means that sometimes you gain a level when you expect, and sometimes you don't. As a result, your strength may not be enough to kill a certain monster in a certain number of hits. The first time something like this happens, the entire demo begins to go out of synch. A perfect example of this is the mage on the Shadow Wood demo. When he gets to level 2, he switches to the blue wand almost immediately in order to fight off some centaurs. Sometimes, he doesn't gain a level right then and he can't switch to the blue wand yet. Soon afterwards, he dies.

This was the last time I did demos for any of the Korax projects... [img]images/smiles/icon_sad.gif[/img] [img]images/smiles/icon_sad.gif[/img] [img]images/smiles/icon_sad.gif[/img]

Okay, I'll make a whole new thread for my report about the beta testing so far. btw the saves work but they seem to have some graphical problems... I'll talk about that at my new thread. Oh and sorry for the mistake. J.P didn't say anything and he/she is mod after all so I just assumed. [img]images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif[/img]

What mistake?

It seems that I confused Janis and J.P

No harm done...At all... Its an honor to be mistaken with Janis... If it was RambOrc, then it will be a diferent story... [img]images/smiles/icon_razz.gif[/img] [img]images/smiles/icon_razz.gif[/img] [img]images/smiles/icon_razz.gif[/img] And Merton, I?m not a chick, I?m a very moody old bastard with enough age to be your father...

The reason for this was that M_Random was used for experience, and not P_Random. And this affects both - demos and multiplayer (meaning that it's a serious bug).
