We are happy to announce the release of ADOM 1.2.0 prerelease 5!
Note that this release is only available to donors of the ADOM: The Resurrection campaign of Wanderer level and above (Seekers excluded, thanks for asking ;-) ). It is available under the URL you received with the same login data as before.
p5 is a bugfix release removing some old and new problems. Barring any major problems with p5 p6 should be the next major update introducing at least one new profession (Chaos Knights) and quite a bit of new stuff (full plate armor, some more heavy weaponry, new artifacts, etc.).

ReplyDeleteAs for issues 1300 and 1301 - are these artifacts/items available in p5 already?
Sorry, Thomas is still working on them. No new artifacts or items in p5 I'm afraid. I updated the changelog accordingly.
Deleteand by issues i meant features ;)
ReplyDeleteY'know I think you should include the Seekers on the distribution for the pre-releases. A fair few seem to have been confused by the wording of the text, and it's always good to show a touch of generosity in kind. I sincerely doubt any Wanderers would get upset by this. Everyone's pretty happy to be getting new ADOM releases :)
ReplyDelete... It would be a good way to placate them for delays in the release of the RPG, should they occur down the road ;)
Delete1000 times this!
DeleteI have to admit I wasn't very careful when I was choosing which pledge to take (I just assumed you are getting everything lower pledge levels have).
Not being able to access pre-releases is huge disappointment :/
I really fail to understand how one can misread the very first sentence of the Seeker pledge level, cited:
Delete(NEW EXCLUSIVE - NOT INCLUDED IN ANY OTHER PLEDGE LEVEL, DOES NOT INCLUDE ANY OTHER PLEDGE LEVEL)
Just curious...
Seriously, I mean I wouldn't mind if Thomas decides to give the ADOM pre-release builds to the Seeker level donators, but I specifically donated an extra $20 (or however much it was) on top of the Seeker level, in order that I would get the pre-release builds along with the ADOM Lite RPG.
DeleteI donated at the Seeker level, and I don't want access to the prerelease builds. It was not included in the Seeker level, and that was pretty clear. It seems odd to me that people would feel entitled to something extra due to their own poor reading comprehension.
DeleteAnyway, I don't mean to be rude. I just find this sort of entitlement somewhat bewildering.
I'm looking forward to the tabletop RPG and the final build.

ReplyDeleteErr, when did we receive this? I'm having trouble finding it. =S
Can we have a journal? I sometimes play several characters and forget all the important things: altars, cute dog status, cleared dungeons, useful stuff in shops, my own stashes or simply what I was up to..
ReplyDeleteYou sir, had one genius idea.
DeleteNow THAT would be useful! A really good idea.

The email with the URL landed in my Junk Email folder in Outlook...if you're having trouble locating it, it's dated Oct 21, and the sender is "Thomas Biskup" (unlike this latest announcement, which was from Indiegogo).
ReplyDeleteAh, it very well might have ended up in my Junk folder... which has been emptied since that date (nothing before the 5th of Nov). Is there any chance we can get another round of emails sent out?
DeleteSecond. I can't find the email with the prerelease link. I have literally been waiting years for a new adom version to play, please send a new round of emails!
DeleteI am too missing my email about the prerelease link.
