DavidW Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 SCS version 9 is now out, exactly a year after the last version (well, excluding a translation-only update). Mostly this is a bugfix, sorting out the rather bewildering mixture of (mostly small, mostly BGT) bugs that have turned up in the last twelve months. Under the hood, the code has been completely redone, though most of this won't be that directly noticeable. The main new features are a systematic inclusion of spells from BG2 into enemy spellbooks (this is optional: you can keep them using BG1 spells if you want), an automated reorganisation of all enemy mage and priest spell books to be more intelligently chosen, and an assignment to many mages of a speciality type to make fights with mages slightly more varied.

Daulmakan Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 Is it just me or the download links still give out v8? Link to comment
Jarno Mikkola Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 Is it just me or the download links still give out v8? Possibly the wrong link perhaps? The right link ...from the project page. Notice that it's for SCS, not SCSII. Ah, scratch that, indeed, hmm, it might be that it's not yet updated in the servers, as the file is still being updated. Link to comment
Shaitan Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 As the readme still is version 8 will I be able to uninstall version 8 and install version 9 and just continue with my savegames? Link to comment
DavidW Posted October 8, 2008 Author Share Posted October 8, 2008 As the readme still is version 8 will I be able to uninstall version 8 and install version 9 and just continue with my savegames? Yep (probably, no guarantees, terms and conditions apply, yadda, yadda). But you do need to uninstall v8 completely before installing v9. Link to comment
Graoumf Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Thanks for the update, David! French players will be able to play to your mod now. Link to comment
Child-Like Robot Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 The mac distro of v9 doesn't have a .tp2 file (at least I can't find it) and I can't install without it. Help? Link to comment
Steve Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Download the PC version of the mod and copy over its .tp2 file. Link to comment
Icendoan Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Except you download a self-extracting executable, which won't run on a mac. Icen Link to comment
Steve Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 You don't execute it, you give it to your favorite archive extractor and it'll do the work. Link to comment
