So, where is the patch ?

Boomer Ang · 08-31-05, 03:45 AM

DW box on my shelf is already covered from 2 inchees of dust and its technology is becoming very obsolete but despiting I have already paid the game the patch is still floating in the dark limbo....since months....

I am now pretty sure my elder " issues list " won't never be, neither partially, fullfilled and I think DWX guys have never considered DW an horse to bet on.

My DW copy is on sale,you can spot it also on Amazon starting from tomorrow.

P.S. my experience in terms of SA is growing and growing

Good luck with your selling. I suggest starting with 65% of current market value.

It is a valid question:

I cannot play online, never could...major reason I purchased DW is for online play.

Hopefully, at least , Sonalyst will allow something along the lines of SCX so more drivable platforms can be introduced...

What do you think the patch is going to do? :hmm:

Snakeeyes · 08-31-05, 08:57 AM

People can't make DWX without the patch.

While SCS is working tightly with the government right now to train REAL sailors (which is a really cool software job) a release date for the next patch would really be appreciate you know?

Originally the patch (and DWX) was slated for early August. Well... our 8th month has come and gone. I am beginning to wonder if we will see the patch by the end of november and DWX before Christmas. I'll wait no problem without female-dogging but mainly because I don't have much choice you know?

We may conclude this:

1. You live in a very VERY dusty place.

2. Your name is Jeff Bezos, because he's the only guy I could imagine that could use Amazon to sell his private stuff (I guess you meant Ebay LOL)

3. Your "experience in terms of SA" (whatever that means) grows well despite dust gathering on your copy of DW.

Why is DWX tied to the patch?

Why don't they release what they have?

I can't answer in their name (I am not part of the team), but DWX has "traditionally" been very very very slow (perhaps they are just being methodic LOL) in their work.

DWX is project guys do in their free time, and give away for free, so this is *not* meant as criticism, this is just sort of "explanation" for "younger" members of the community.

Thom (Thomasew) is the key person for DWX projects. Its very common of him to disappear from the board for months (I think his last post here was in June or July). So unless he decides to chime in on this thread, you will get no dependable info on DWX (I guess).

They or he (Thom) may be waiting for patch 2 (I don't know) but even if 1.02 is released tomorrow, I would not be expecting DWX anytime soon.

Feel free to correct me if anyone knows more.

I also don't see any reason why anyone would not be playing this great game NOW, regadless of DWX or patch 1.02 etc.

Because they want solid code before they come up with a magical way to transfer SCXIIc models to it and add new stuff as well. It just makes sense. If they don't wait then they'll have to do all the work over again to make it work with the patch. It's delicate work and these guys are dedicated. My hats off to them.

Yeah... I think Thomas' wife (or one of the crucial DWX staff) is having twins so that alone will definitely curb your "extracurricular activities."

They must all be virgos because they either ship it out to us perfect or not at all.
