Moviestorm 1.1.7.1 patch
Following the release of Moviestorm 1.1.7 on Wednesday, you guys found a number of bugs. Most of them are the sort of thing we expected, and we’ll fix them in due course. However, there are a few that need to be sorted out right away, so we’re putting together a 1.1.7.1 patch release. This is scheduled to be shipped next week.
Key issues being addressed:
- Running Moviestorm fullscreen causes it to flicker badly
- Weather effects distort the camera view
- Under some circumstances doors don’t work properly
- Several problems caused by user-created mods
- Some backwards compatibility issues with old movies not loading correctly
- Issues with Snow Leopard
We’re not sure exactly how much we’ll squeeze into this patch - we figured it would be best to get something out to you as soon as possible and deal with the most critical issues, rather than wait until we’ve fixed a load of them and leave you hanging for a few weeks.
In the meantime, here’s some advice when upgrading.
- Don’t run Moviestorm fullscreen. Before upgrading, change the setting in 1.1.6, and then upgrade. (If you’ve already hit the fullscreen problem, here’s how to get around it.)
- If you have mods installed, disable them before upgrading and check Moviestorm 1.1.7 runs OK without them, then re-enable your mods.
- If you have 2Gb or more of memory, use this method to change the memory settings - changing the heap size in boot.properties won’t work.
- If you have an Nvidia graphics card, update the drivers.
- If you’re running on Snow Leopard (Mac OSX 10.6), make sure you install the Nvidia CG toolkit before you install Moviestorm.
