Updated to Version 1.2.0
Firstly let me apologize for any confusion with this update. The update requires starting a new game. If I could have, I would have prevented this but alas, it was unavoidable.
However, if you really want to continue your current game, I have provided a legacy version 1.1.7, which you can access via: "Islands of the Caliph > Properties > Betas" and select "version1.1.7" from the drop-down menu.
If you really want to continue your current game in the updated game, this is also possible, but your maps may get messed up due to changes in the update. Scroll down for instructions on how to do this...
[h2]What's New?[/h2]
Several new features and fixes have bee implemented.
[h3]Achievements[/h3]
Steam Achievements are now active in the new version. 15 Steam Achievements are ready for you to enjoy.
[h3]Stair Issue Addressed[/h3]
Some stairs in the game were exhibiting very strange behavior. I believe all of these have been fixed. You should be able to go up stairs without this weird behavior now.
[h3]Necromancer Bug[/h3]
The Necromancer fight had a bug where it would disappear if you saved and loaded the game after the combat began, but prior to defeating him. This should now be resolved.
[h3]Torch Issue[/h3]
The torch was having an issue freezing when passing between areas. This should no longer happen.
[h3]Map Icons[/h3]
Some icons for mosques, caretakers and trainers were not showing up on the map. they should all now appear as intended.
[h2]How to Update your Game[/h2]
If you really want to update your current game to work with the latest version, it is inadvisable. However, I don't believe it will cause any game breaking bugs. Your maps may get a little messed up if you do this, and I am not sure if or how it will work with Steam achievements, so please don't say I didn't warn you.
To do it, go to "C:\Users\*YOUR USERNAME*\AppData\Local\Islands_of_the_Caliph\Save_*#*"
Where *YOUR USERNAME* is your actual username on your computer.
And *#* is the save slot number of your game.
Open your game folder and find the "save.txt" file.
In that file the first few lines will look like this:
SAVED GAME: 2,
Version 1.1.7,
INVENTORY,
Simply change the second line like this:
SAVED GAME: 2,
Version 1.2.0,
INVENTORY,
And then save the file. Now you will be able to load your old game in the new version.
[h2]Last Time[/h2]
I do not like making promises I cannot keep. However, I do not foresee any other changes going forward that will require starting a new game. This should be the last time this is necessary. Thank you for your patience! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or concerns - [email protected]
