I have been away for three months (on holidays) and have not found an answer to the (rather obvious) question: Are 1.0-Savegames compatible to the 1.2a-version of the mod ?
I didn't upgrade to 1.1 because my game run fine on 1.0.
I do add 'Van' and 'Mod' to the ends of my TC folders. But unfortuantly I also had an old Egosoft folder on my system that I had forgotton to remove, needless to say that's the one X-tended found and installed to.I've now removed it to avoid confusion in the future.

I would imagine so, but you may need to do a reinstall with 2.1a full version.




They really should be compatible, yes

Some bug fixes may not work if you continue to play a 1.0 save, but it should work fine otherwise. The only one that comes to mind is a couple sectors were swapped on the map, but I think there were some other ones as well.
All 1.x versions of XTC will be savegame-compatible. However, version 2.0 will not be compatible with 1.x savegames.

(Sam Redstone's Long-Rang Missile Mod, or SRLRMM, coming sometime after the next XTC patch... meanwhile, I'll be thinking of a better name for it...)

I was installing 1.2 the other day and when i went ingame i had the red 1.2 thing. So i went again, reinstalled everything and figured out what was causing it. If you got cycrow cheat package XTC will turn red ... I got no scripting skills but why does it do that ? when installing the package it didnt overwrite any files ...
So, if anyone else is getting the red 1.2 and dont know why, check if u got cycrow cheats.


Depends if you installed them by hand (extracted the scripts using the spk explorer and then copied them over) or if you used his script installer tool. The latter adds it's own cat/dat set which interferes with XTC.
Yes i figured that part out too, noticed that it was interfering with XTC so i used SPK explorer and placed the files manually but didnt solve anything i still got XTC red which to me seems strange as it doesnt replace any files at all.
EDIT : Same thing goes for MARS (altho that is probably understandable, it DOES replace files)


IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR STEAM USERS:

1) Is this an early warning or should it be out already? (don't see anything online yet)
2) Is there a version change that I can check? (assuming this isn't DLC)
Edit: 3) Or is it only after we redeem tickets for that extra sector?
