Ugh. I wasted too much time sleeping. Need coffee and carrots.

Love these quick fixlists. Sadly I can't play for a week because I'm going on a vacation. Oh well, all the better when I return!

On the store I can see 2 download links for version 0.86 and they are 212MB and 2GB, the same as version 0.85.

Do we have to download the whole thing again or is there a download update somewhere from 0.85 to 0.86?

Thanks!

huh ya it shouldn't be that large.... It's no like they have to readd the art files.

If you are currently patched to .85, just install the .86 beta "update", not the beta "download".

This game is really coming together. I think this is gamer history in the making!

Seems a coincidence though that it's exactly the same size as the 0.85 Beta update at 212MB!

**Edit**

Cool...they've added a link for an 0.85 to 0.86 update only:

Are there any save-breaking changes between .85 and .86?

Derek, I'd love it if you could make a cosmetic change: Normal FE mouse cursor when in the game menu. Going to the game menu from in-game preserves whatever pointer you had at the time, and it looks ugly and is difficult to navigate the menu with a crossed-swords mouse pointer, for example.

Cheers!

The mouse cursor code need to be looked at for sure, when it's the appropriate time.

I too am curious. I won't download until I finish this game just in case.

Agreed! Same behavior after winning a tactical battle.

As is with school, etc ... I've still only played 40 turns or so >.>

I installed patch .86 then loaded up an .85 save. It loaded and I played a turn. I don't know if that's a reliably indication or not. Later I'll play some more, but I gotta take a break ;~P Been playing for hours. One More Turn Syndrome and all that.
