To all SSC Station occupants

Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.

Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

Thanks for the update Wesp5, uploading it to the file area now. And with this patch do you think Precursors is very playable if I purchase the download version from Gamersgate?

Yes, but maybe you should look at the Beamdog version too, because they already offer the Russian voice-pack :)!

Darkone, please replace the version in your file area with the one from 20.4.2011, the other version may crash on startup.

That's the version I was talking about! The Fan Improvement Pack are the original Russian voices which not only make the game much cooler, imagine it's an alien language ;), it also fixes the sound dropout issues people have.

After some tests i found that merchant have two lines that give package.

[attachment=679:Precursors 2011-04-26 16-48-38-68.jpg]

Option 1 gives correct dust package.

Option 6 gives spice package.

And cutscenes ogg in installer have modification date 1 hour less.

installer version from 20.4.2011

Cell key (without description) from fisherman quest on Gli is not removed from inventory.

That is correct, the daytime saving change did this. Is the 20.4.2011 version working for you?

Hm, what do you expect me to do, remove it when it is used? I don't remember how this is handled in TP and I don't know how I would change this. I added a description and I could make the key droppable though, so you could get rid of it afterwards...

Cutscenes from version 20.4.2011 still cause crash on run (I redownloaded patch from patches scrolls 5 minutes ago)

so I repleced them with files from moddb which are working fine.

As for the key you could add remove item command to fisherman reward script so it could be removed when he gives reward. Power cell quest removes keycard to bandits storage on completion so you can look in its script to see how it is handled.

Were you using the GameFront mirror? I think it hasn't been updated yet. Please try the version below and tell me if it works:

I don't know how to access quest scripts, but I will remove the key when you speak to the captured friend of the fisherman.

The file you posted works fine. Looks like Gamefront is in no hurry to update their mirrors.

Keep up the good work Wesp5 if Ifind any more bugs or inconsistencies I will let you know. Thank you for your awesome work.
