Ugh,  I know.  I've been procrastinating (can you call it that when you're coding up a storm, just not on what you're supposed to be doing?) but during lunch at work I'll make sure to at least itemize the bugs from the Let's Play and the threads.

Well... Merry Christmas!

[newstarshipsmell]

So how's the final version coming along? You looking at a... 2016 release date?

[MaximumCDawg]

That depends how productive I am in the next two days, dunnit? 

 

Yeah, here, look, lemme PM you something to keep you happy in the meanwhiles.

[newstarshipsmell]

Made any progress lately?

[MaximumCDawg]

No, but I am alive!  Haven't coded in three weeks - feels bad - due to other real life obligations.  I'm getting to it at some point though.

Any chance of re-uploading the music/build at least so people can check the game out?

[MaximumCDawg]

Oh!  Is the link broken.... yeah, sure looks like it.  Bugger. 

 

Alright, well, I guess I should get my butt in gear anyway.  After my C++ education, Zodiac's code is soooo painful to work with now... oh well.

 

Look for something in the next few days.  I'll post here when I've got it fixed.

Okay sport, I uploaded the latest beta.

Did you put it up and then take it right back down? That link lands on an error message.

[MaximumCDawg]

It works for me. Can you access the quest project download and get the file successfully?

It works for me. Can you access the quest project download and get the file successfully?

On the quest page, all I see is this:

 

There's no entry for demo #586 (the one you linked to above, that loads an error page for me), Download Demo links to demo #557 (the 8-1-2015 build) and #586 isn't listed on View All Demos either.

 

But at any rate, crowfeathers was asking for the custom build and music files, which were never included in the site download, obviously...

 

And the Dropbox links for all those files in the last demo description are all dead.

 

I still got my files, no worries here. I was just asking in case the other guy still couldn't get what he was looking for. But yeah, I think however you uploaded that last demo, you managed to set it to private or something, since it ain't loading for me.

[crowfeathers]

Indeed, that link says I don't have permission to access it.

[MaximumCDawg]

PureZC now allows me to use the site link to my zip file directly, so that's why you don't see a .QST download. The permission thing, however, I don't know about.

Can you access the drop box directly?

Yes, that download works. Thank you!

 

I can load the game and play through the shooter section up to the first boss, though nothing damages it, making the fight impossible. Maybe I'm doing something wrong.

 

edit: the bomb-dropping ships also cannot be hit with regular fire. I checked the previous demo you had uploaded and it worked then, so it seems as if something has broken the hit detection at that height. lasers still do damage but of course are limited and you can't refill them during the boss battle.
