THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! (If I'm shooting the messenger with karma, please tell me who else needs some)

Quoting EviliroN,

You can convert back to binary if you want, it's not necessary, it just makes the files smaller so they load faster.

Nah, no karma for you.  I need to find how to give it through the op.

 

EDIT: Why can't I give it through the op? Whatever, I'm off to find a random post to give him karma through.

The karma button is hidden on the OP.. but if you hover your mouse just to the right of the karma-meter, the button is clickable (and the mouse hover tooltip will read Give Yarlen +1 Karma)

13 karma???

*ahem* 14. Holding Entrenchment hostage is just MEAN.

I propose the reverse: release the Entrenchment beta so everyone would have many more reasons to give karma

We are not in the habit of entertaining hostage negotiations, the SWAT team is inbound

Heeeeeeey. Are we supposed to convert the data files ourselves? Or will you guys get the folder with the text versions together?

EDIT: will the developer exe we downloaded earlier work with 1.1?

That's what I'm talking about, the main Forge Tools package is still @ 1.05 - and no, the dev exe and data are different

There's a gameplay.constants in your Sins install GameInfo folder, it's always in text so you can use it.
