v6.00 Patch
« on: October 07, 2012, 10:54:02 AM »
Important! This is a database patch so if you upgrade you will lose your saved game. Don't upgrade if you want to keep playing the same campaign.

This patch can only be applied to version 4.2 or later. To apply the patch just unzip the Aurora600.zip file into the installation directory, overwriting two files.

http://www.pentarch.org/steve/Aurora600.zip (12Mb)

This version has a LOT of major changes, so there are likely to be some bugs. Don't invest too much time in setting up new campaigns and treat this as a beta release. This database in this patch contains my current Aurora campaign as an example game.

Steve

hurrrrrr
* Britich touches self

edit: As commented below, I also am getting 76 followed by 91's.
I also tried a full reinstall using the program files location aurora offers up at the start, same thing.
Im using Win7 64x.

As a note I also tried to reinstall 5. 6 from scratch and that worked perfectly.

Niiiice.

Edit- It's erroring out.  I got an Error in Form Load / Error 76 - Path not found, followed by endless Error in Update Game Log / Error 91 - Object variable or With block variable not set errors.

Confirmed that both files extracted.... will try again.

The perils of testing in debug mode :)

Try downloading again and see if the problems are fixed.

Error 3315 was generated by DAO.Recordset
Field 'Rac.RaceName' cannot be a zero-length string.

Got this on trying to create a spacemaster empire for a non-Terra Start.

Where can one find the a11 and b20 planet jpg pictures that the system view states are missing and which cause a ctd?

Many thanks

Copy and paste existing image files and rename them a11 and b20. I used the existing planet images.

Looks like I have to wait a little before I could set up a big campaign, but I'm tempted to test the 6.00. Is it possible to have a double install of Aurora? :)

Did you extract the planetjpgs from the additional zip in the install?
