Bah they didn't change the 12ga slug or the 44 hand load recipe. I guess they weren't mistakes after all.

Steam just finished downloading. Sadly it's too late to start troubleshooting.. erm I mean playing.

» Sun Apr 24, 2011 9:25 pm

Don't get too excited. I'm still crashing to desktop in the Ultra-Luxe Bathhouse after applying the patch.

Wow, Steam's just downloaded something. Presumably a patch. Such a pity it's 1.30AM and I can't really stay up for extensive testing

» Sun Apr 24, 2011 11:49 pm

Hmm... my game says it's v1.2.0.314 after the patch, but the patch notes say "1.2.0.310". What's that all about?

» Sun Apr 24, 2011 11:15 pm

I guess the difference between 1.2.0.310 and 1.2.0.314 if whatever they tweaked during the delay? Probably nothing worth added to the notes because the difference constitutes fixing what would have been bugs introduced by an earlier unrealsed test build rather than bugs in the earlier released versions?

Well, the day still reverts to Sunday when you load a save - so I don't know if traders will be updating their inventory - and the crafting menu is still glitchy; so there doesn't appear to much change to the .exe. I guess it's mostly quest scripting fixes.

Maybe I'll start a new game and see if that does anything.

Earmack we are something like "second class citizen". Rus/PL/Czech must wait just like previous updates :/

Notes are up (they're the same as the PS3 notes).

I've asked this many times but never gotten an answer, please answer this time since the patch is now out. Have you looked at/fixed the halved FPS issue that some of us ATI users have experienced since the last patch (probably got broke when you fixed the Nvidia problems with DirectX)? There's nothing about it in the new patch notes and I can't check because I won't have my gaming computer handy until a couple of weeks from now.

I have this problem but its participially due that ATI cards arn't really meant for gaming there meant for design and other things.

Erm...what?

Ati cards are just as good for gaming as Nvidia cards. In fact, with some setups. some models are better than their Nvidia equivilent.

Please post actual facts in future.

That one annoyed me, but at least you can wait for 3 game days in an unpopulated cell and it'll force the resets. Should not have to at this point but it seems like they would have to append the day to the end of the savegame format and potentially risk breaking pre-patch saves. They're probably having trouble altering the formatting and variable cotent of the saves since currently the bug is a result of there not being a varible in the save structure for day of the week! You'd think they could probably write a script that correct by using the date since the numerical date value is at least save correctly.

Though a complicated post (To me at least, hey's its 1:30am here), this does bring up a point.

Some bugs may not appear to be immediately fixed, so it may be worth finding an interior cells with no NPCs and waiting three days for the cell resets and see if that clears the issue. May not always work, but always worth a go.
