Thanks for the update!
Are new releases usually not savegame compatible?
I'm way too invested to give up my current game so that was disappointing news.
I already love it...what are the chances?
Looks great. Thanks, Steve.
The minor releases (1. 12. 1, 1. 12. 2, etc. ) tend to be compatible, while the major releases (1. 10, 1. 11, 1. 12, etc. ) are not.
Makes sense.
I'm having way too much fun with my current game to abandon it, but maybe someday I will restart and take advantage of these great fixes. :)
This game is amazing once you learn enough to get into it. I've never felt closer to actually running a Pournelle Empire of Man or a more "realistic" interstellar empire.
There were a lot of changes and fixes in this patch. Therefore, don't start any major campaigns until the patch has been out for at least 48 hours.

Is this still relevant? Are we to expect any additional patches soon? Because...Off-Topic: show

game has been quite uneventful so far, no npr (gen chance 30%) and no precursors/ruins (gen chance 20%) anywhere, despite the abundance of habitable worlds found.
can it be something I've overlooked in the game setup?

I have an issue, when I try to download it with Chrome, and only Windows Defender active (W10), I got a warning there is a virus in the .RAR.
I don't want to freak anyone, but can it be only a false positive?
I am willing to bet the false positives stem from the obfuscation. That being said, I am NOT asking Steve to remove it :)
For some reason, Windows defender seems to think there is a virus within the patch. It says CyrptoInserter.That's just defender being irritating and giving a false positive. If you check VirusTotal it only has one engine detect anything, which is pretty standard.
I will not disable my antivirus, i have burnt myself with "false positives" before.Here ya go, the file direct checked by 83 AV services and not one positive.
No offense but i don't know any of you!
I think the developer should address this, either modifying or providing an official checkshum to check whether it is an official release or it has some malicious inject.

We should certainly not disregard the possibility that someone actually managed to get into the forum database and add something spicy to the aurora executable sometime after Steve uploaded it. I too am in favor of an MD5 (well, strictly if we want to be secure we should use something other than MD5 since thats been cracked, so a careful hacker could cover their tracks fairly easily compared to a SHA hash or something).

Reasonable paranoia aside, I think this is pretty safe.For what it's worth the SHA of 1.12.0 I downloaded a few days ago matches the one in your post.
The storage location doesn't affect any modifications made to the file during transit, and only protects the file vs the post to the extent that different passwords are (or should be) needed to affect both areas, although I'd guess there is an admin account somewhere that can affect the whole shabang.We should certainly not disregard the possibility that someone actually managed to get into the forum database and add something spicy to the aurora executable sometime after Steve uploaded it.

Speaking of passwords are any of them aurora123? ;D
On a more serious note have you considered adding TLS/SSL for the forums?From the host, a dedicated certificate runs $100 a year with a $25 setup fee. See the Donations thread on why that probably won't happen :)
That would ensure that communication between the browser and the server is secure and that messages between them cannot be tampered with during transit.
The file path for the 1.12 patch is also on pentarch.org so I think it would also add security during file downloads.

I have tried to run 1. 12 patch but its very sluggish! Also the 1. 11 coloured events are not colored any more. Strange indeed!

Hello, together.You need to change your system settings for the game to work correctly, the game takes the settings from Windows, the game doesn't tell Windows to change them.
Is it possible that we don't need to change the , and . ?
I have reinstalled the Game and doesn't change the , and . in the Region Settings on Windows.
But i am from Germany
Yaaay, it is not flagged anymore, i can play :D
