New Version 0.108 not working for me

1.) I have the "see pre-release versions" set to allow in the impulse menu.

2.) This morning I woke and saw an "update" to Demigod available in the Impulse Reactor menu.

3.) It didn't say it was a beta or anything.

4.) I downloaded it...

5.) So, as I did that I noticed in the bottom left corner of Impulse menu that my Demigod was now listed as Demigod v1.00[b]

6.) I started the game and got to the "single player skirmish" screen and noted that the in game version was Demigod 1.00.0108

7.) I was puzzled because it seems as if the version listing on the Impulse screen was different than in game. Very disconserting.

8.) In order to "test" the game I decided to try to start a single player skirmish match. After setting up the match, I clicked launch.

9.) However, when I got to the splash loading screen I saw the fatal "no text" under the map name and my skirmish matches won't load.

10.) So now I have an updated version that won't run and it seems as if there's a conflict between what impulse says I'm running and the version in game.

<_< Needless to say, I'm not very pleased with Stardock or Gas Powered Games right now.

Before this morning I was able to run single player games no problem and I was able to get into multiplayer games although I encountered the slow and borked multiplayer issues just like the rest of you.

I'm running Vista 64 bit just in case that matter. Like I said, prior to this latest patch, I could run the game. Now I can't get past the loading screening after I launch a single player match.

delete games.prefs in  your my documents\my games\gas powered games\demigod folder, i've had this once and deleting that file fixed it.

So you know, version numbers don't change if they're beta.  Some versions just ARE beta releases.  Version numbers jump so much because software companies have internal versions between releases.  Now, to (hopefully) fix your problem, you can always uninstall and reinstall after unchecking the "show pre-releases" button.  Hope that works for you!

I tried that and it worked. I was able to launch a single player game. Thanks.

Now let's see if I can get MP to work. :D
