ithildurnew Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 (edited) Mod has been updated, the link here should work. The mod apparently was updated January of 2015; the link provided in the above post by author reports a version '2', but the updated version isn't reported in the main G3 website news, and the link provided in the main G3 page still links to a version 1. Would be helpful it this were clarified; maybe adding version number to the file name is a good idea as well. Edited March 5, 2015 by ithildurnew Quote Link to comment
Kish Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Unfortunately, I haven't been able to get in touch with a G3 admin; I have no direct power over website news or the main G3 page. Quote Link to comment
Mike1072 Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 I can create an official package and update the download center and announcements. I should be able to get it done tomorrow. Quote Link to comment
Cahir Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Mike does this new v2 of NPC Stronholds at G3 is the one compatible with BG2EE? Kish said that CawDawg make it compatible, but I wanted to be sure if it's this version indeed. Quote Link to comment
Mike1072 Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 My understanding is that the mod is compatible with regular BG2 and BG2EE. Quote Link to comment
Guest Icarus300 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 According to the above thread the latest version is .... 8... updated in 2016? Yet the latest version in downloads seems to be 2 from much earlier. Anyone aware what the story is? Quote Link to comment
Mike1072 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Fixed. v8 is now available from the download center. Quote Link to comment
Jarno Mikkola Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 1 hour ago, Arthas said: question: why did mod's version go from v2 to v8, instead of v3? See thing is, it was v3, v4, v5, v6 and v7, before the v8 came up, if you just look at the linked posts version data... but the G3 download centers file was not updated, just the dropbox one, was. Assuming a little here. Quote Link to comment
ithildurnew Posted November 24, 2019 Author Share Posted November 24, 2019 (edited) Oof... Someone dropped the ball a little. Still, thanks for updating the download page finally... better late than never I suppose, although it's too late for my current run (installation order has it before SCS and other major mods; there's no way I'm reinstalling all those at this point). Hopefully I won't run into serious bugs still running version ... 2... holy cow... that's 6 updates that have been MIA for who knows how long. This is a highly underrated, conceptually wonderful mod imho, much better than 90% of NPC related mod content out there; some of the writing/characterization is arguably better than Beamdog/EE added NPC content. It's a real pity that it's being treated like a one legged stepchild (no recent updates/bugfixes, newer version not available for download etc.) Edited November 24, 2019 by ithildurnew Quote Link to comment
Isewein Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 I couldn't agree more with the sentiment. And just to make sure nobody else misses this as well: There now is a version 8.1 with bugfixes by @Cirosan which hasn't been linked on the main mod page yet. Quote Link to comment
jastey Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 @Isewein v8.1 is still in testing and as far as I can see has a few bugs. We can't link versions on the main page blindly. Quote Link to comment
Guest Morgoth Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 The other version being linked is in a way worse shape than cirosan's work. So bad that roxanne made her own and started correcting her own. No problem if you dont want to spread a legit version, but don't get mad when people choose roxanne version if cirosan's one is rotting inside this forum. Quote Link to comment
Isewein Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 I didn't mean to imply that it should be, just raise its visibility for other people like me who might come across this thread not knowing about the newer version (which after all needs more playtesters in order to become stable). I don't think it's fair to equate Cirosan's work with Roxanne's - he recived explicit permission from Kish to continue working on the mod and also documented his changes thoroughly. I wish the community could finally start moving past this entire nasty Roxanne business instead of bringing it up again and again... Quote Link to comment
jastey Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 Morgoth: had Roxanne decided to work with the community and not against them, her bugfixes could be in the official mod version. But I'm sure the reason this mod wasn't debugged and updated yet is because we all just dawdle away our time with other needless stuff. @Isewein this wasn't addressed at you. Quote Link to comment
