7.4.4.4e is out!

I have decided to stop claiming that I have fixed things. Instead, I'll admit only to breaking the thing in a new and hopefully more interesting manner than the last time.
-Dash should work now. I did a test jog from Rei Long-Oak to Everlight, and everything should work. (If you are using another method to speed up the game, you may still run into bugged up cutscenes).
-The weirdness in the Shing concubine quest should be corrected so you're no longer clicking randomly to find an event in the casino that should be touch activated.
-Gave up on the all in one delivery method and went back to the zip.

7.4.4.4e
RPG Maker XP RTP link

HOTFIX:
I neglected to include the Shing Smearer.jpg file in the last release. Here's a 128kb .zip hotfix for that, just unzip it into your AloneXP directory and follow the .txt file's instructions.
Shing Smearer hotfix

Hotfix is unnecessary if you downloaded the 7.4.4.4e link after this edit was made.

    1. Gah, all this time I've been thinking it was our encryption/packaging software giving us errors, and it turns out I just forgot to copy the initial .jpg over to 7.4.4.4 in the first place. No wonder every release had that error. Check above for the hotfix. It will be working in future updates.

    1. Well, the new version should not install over the old version and erase anything. So unless you've deleted the folder for the old version, your saves should still be in the old versions folder as Save 1-Save 4.rxdata. You should just need to copy those files and paste them into the new version's main folder, (the one with the Game.exe file).

    2. i did. anyway, that's not what i'm talking about. i'm talking about my newer files from yesterday, i turned off my computer, and the only one i still had was before meeting the priest in evergreen.......i had gotten much further.

    3. Okay, that's a new one. Hmmm. You may want to try and get into the habit of double saving. (Save once, then after the noise dumps you back out of the menu, save over that save). I myself have also occasionally used escape on the save screen instead of enter, that'll cancel out the save.

      You may also want to verify that the saved data is there before you shutdown your computer. Either just exit to the title screen and see if continue shows the correct saves, or check if the saves were modified within the last several minutes in the game directory. (You'll probably have to modify the file directory to show you "last modified" in details view).

      If any of the above is not working correctly, then it's definitely a problem with the game and not your machine. It seems to be working okay in my tests, but I'll keep poking around to see.

  4. there is also one thing i need to tell you, the scene where you fight the orcs to free the prostitutes isn't working, i can still do the mission, but the screen is black, so i can't see anything.

    1. Yes, that was like that in previous versions. I hadn't quite gotten to it yet as everything else seemed way more urgent.

  10. Quick request. For those of you who find a bug with the dash program where you can suddenly walk over everything... please let me know on what map it STARTED on. It'll carry over to other maps if it breaks, but if I can find out which map it begins on, I can fix those events so it doesn't happen in the first place.

    So far, that includes dqslime1234's report of the Meaty Goodness shop. I'm almost positive there will be others, just give me bug reports if/when you find those. They shouldn't be super hard fixes, I just need to know where I may have overlooked something. I'll get a list going of bugged maps to fix once I have some more free time lined up.

  11. Why after a certain castle upgrade you get a large amount of G from going between map sections kind of game breaking even at lowest tax collection.

    1. That will have to wait until crouler decides how he wants to update the income system. He turned it off completely on some maps, but left it on for at least the map you've found. I'm not really sure if that's still a bug or if he just wanted you to only receive an income if you cross that particular map. I'm really hesitant to "fix" anything that may not technically be broken. Busted system's been there since August.
