Beta Vs 0.023

[kimkom]

No longer boots from Steam.

.. or from the .exe (and as Administrator)

?? Any ideas?

 

[kimkom]

Sounds like the game wasn't able to allocate enough memory to run.

Hmmm... 16Gb RAM?

Edit: Exiting Steam and restarting seems to have solved the issue.

We are not getting into the "who gets access to T2?" wars again. Sorry.

 

[Rudy]

Indeedy, especially as we basically have free access to every table (bar T2) until the release hits, which is rediculously thoughtful of those lovely developers

 

[DaPinballWizard]

Agree. But to hold back on T2 makes no sense whatsoever. Period. Can not justify it it any way. I already own it for PS3 and IOS. End of rant.

Actually seems like the perfect way to beta test the code that limits table access based on user login. I Guess it works!

Enough about T2 beta access. DaPinballWizard, please contact support@pinballarcade.com if you haven't done so already.

Not for me...

First time I've encountered this in all beta versions. Was working just fine yesterday.

No longer boots from Steam.

Rebooting your PC may help.

If not, post log.txt and post the last line from MemLog.txt, should say something like Largest size = #

Okay Mike, thanks. Exiting and restarting Steam did the trick (you may have missed my edited post).

I'll keep an eye on the .txt files if it does it again.

RAM can get fragmented over time. This can cause it to not have a large enough chunk to allocate for pinball assets. Restarting will usually fix that.

That's an easy one to explain, the table is tied to user account not the beta build. It must not of been activated on your user account and I assume you need to email support@pinballarcade.com and a staff member can activate it. If I recall that is what I did, but I can check my email if needed for more specifics.

The email below was sent 8/23

"FarSight Studios says:

Hello there,

We want to let you know that you are officially able to beta test Terminator 2 for PC, if that is your platform of choice.

Just a reminder that if your FarSight log in is different from your Kickstarter log in, please let us know at support@pinballarcade.com.

We are just a bit away from releasing for PC and I/we hope that you are as excited as we are.

Thank you.

Ohhhh.... damnit. I could've had access to it all this time! I definitely didn't get that email. Hopefully they haven't left for the weekend. I think I was confused with this: "T2 beta testing has begun for PC/Steam for those backers at $300 and above. The game should be released in less than a month." and because I didn't back for that amount, I didn't bother. Oh well, this is a welcome surprise

 

[DaPinballWizard]

Ok, screw the T2 table. Where is the STTNG cabinet version?

 

[Carl Spiby]

There's no sound after the main menu, table select is silent, and the actual table has no sounds either?

Very odd.

Edit: there is sound its just VERY quiet.

 

[DaPinballWizard]

The main menu sound was much improved. It sounds like it is in stereo now. Noticeable difference.

 

[CycOd3liC]

I'm not sure if this is a bug or not, but if I turn on the operator menu on one table and then leave the table, it's active on other tables. Is this normal behavior?

 

[warh0g]

Any time frame for next beta version?

 

[Mike Reitmeyer]

Today there will be a new beta build. It'll have a purchasing test (you won't own any tables and have to "purchase" them). The purchasing is done through a sandbox server so there are no charges, even though it will look like it. More details shortly.

 

[Timelord]

Cool Mike.

Sounds like we're getting close to a release?



Timelord ...

Yes, very close.

Good things come to those who wait. Thanks Mike
