Someone stole the 5.6 release thread! It's gone! Ok, I know I saw it and read it on here today. Don't try to deny it because I have screenshots! The title was something like "release of the 5.6 mod" or some such thing and said it was gonna be released on august 20th, 2009. Someone took it down. It's not april 1st anymore, fellas! Don't try to con a con. What's the story? I ain't leaving until I get an answer. When you're playing with my mods you're playing with my emotions! :censored: AND it listed a big list of all the major bug fixes and whatnot! Like the complete rework of Jayfie's agents revealed quest and the rewrite of Dead Jay's Black Sheep quest. 10 fixes from an error reporting thread on this website. Taking out all the hyper treasure and too powerful treasure. I'll list more as I remember them. Come clean! You shouldn't have to carry this burden around, weighing you down. Lean on me, when you're not strong, and I'll lend a hand to help you carry on... *edit* Oh man, they pushed it back to Sunday, August 30th! GG Blizz! oke:
Ok, I found it again. Over in the community channel. Co8 5.6.0 Target Release Date Dateline August 20, 2009, USA Circle of Eight Modpack version 5.6.0 is being targeted for release on Sunday, August 30, 2009. So finish up your current campaigns and get your modems ready! Here are a few teaser features: * Optimization of virtually every map in ToEE, with the hope of improving general game performance and (fingers crossed) eliminating the dreaded jerkstop phenomenon. * Less Humble NPCs. * Elimination of hyper-treasure and overpowered items. * Sound effects for traps. * Tweaked NPCs - further portrait/oufit alignment, disband tweaks, and other basic repairs. * Over 30 bugs fixed from the official bug report thread. * A crash-free starting shop map where you can buy ammo and save games without fear. * A complete rewrite of the Jayfie character and an overhaul of the Agent Revealed quest. * An overhaul of the Black Jay's Dead Sheep quest. * New graphical and audio enhancements to Emridy Meadows to improve ambient atmosphere. * A reworked Mona scenario in Nulb. * Temporary removal of Co8 major new content areas in preparation for upcoming re-release. Stay tuned ...
