Hi,

You can download the update by either clicking the Check for Update button on the launcher or downloading it from your My Page (https://www.matrixgames.com/member/downloads/shadow-empire)

Changes:

-Fixed the glitch where a Regime was getting like 10x the Rebel Unit per turn. Was caused by faulty duplicate regime records. Is fixed. And running games will be fixed as well (for future turns of course)
-Fixed a glitch with Red Hex Border Marker being shown in normal Map mode where you were attacked by non-aligned in the previous turn.
-Fixed glitch in Unit target selection in the Stratagem Tab where some people could not click the last item in the list.
-Fixed Upgrade/Downgrade bug concerning MG Infantry Brigade/Corps/Army *
-Multi Zone start has received plenty of extra checks to favorise the Zones being close. Having Zones without rail/road between them should be near impossible now. (and was already very rare)
-Fixed a glitch with BP above 100 in 1 task being capped in the wrong way. You can now effectively assign more than 100 BP to a single task.
-Fixed some glitches in the Org Task Progress Reports
-Tuned down the Resign exploit.. Now costs 3PP to resign and the maximum relation gain is +1.
-The Ancient Archive Stratagem now can also give you Techs from the Tech Groups you do not yet have access to, but that have a connection with a Tech Group you do. More powerful again now after previous downtune.
-Forced March Posture now only -10% readiness instead of -20%. *
-Fixed the graphic for forested mountain that did not colorize well with different vegetation colours (due to color of sunlight and type of flora).
-Fixed the faulty divisional nato counter with X symbol for one with XX symbol.
-Fixed processing turn crash due to Leader leaving a Cult
-Fixed some minor text glitches with -1 hex name for treasure and “” for job name.
-Fixed correct % display (or rounds feat still needs to be highest) for gain Regime Feat in Management Screen
-Fixed logging glitch on round 1 with Unit Food consumption
-Fixed a crash opening the OOB Tab
-Fixed nasty bug with cancellation of Model Design causing the next version to be based on a phantom Model (that was cancelled)
-Fixed a Model stat calculation bug that was not properly reading the actual Base Design value resulting in too low Armour,Weapon and Engine Design scores.
-Fixed the weird history bugs with Orange counters and some disappearing units (especially after just loading a game)
-Fixed Mountain % count in final Planetary Generation report (it was not counting grassy/forested and snowy mountain hexes)
-Fixed preview of Fuel use in Model Designer
-At Recon Level 5 on a Zone you now get to see its neighbouring Zones (1 hex recon point on Zone’s border Hexes added)
-Road Demolition now also clears Traffic signs
-Fixed again the New Model calculations. It was working almost as intended but Engine/Weapon/Armour Design was not using an earlier higher score if it had a low roll. Fixed this now. *
-Secretary can now be paid a salary too
-Did some QA on the mouse overs of the Diplomatic Stratagems *
-Fixed an issue with Regimes without Leaders and Units appearing. I think this appeared in v1.03-beta1. Good we catch this before the patch goes public :) Should be working as intended again with this version. *
-Fixed issue with recon glitch on enemy City
-Fixed a rule that never properly worked: Other Regime’s Cities are nos showing up with 1 Recon on Hex if they are within range 4 of your Hexes. This is because they block founding of new City/Zone within that distance.
-Fixed Archeology Stratagem *
-Fixed issue with Rebels getting victim to their own earlier rebels manpower still present in conquered Zone
-Fixed a minor glitch in the Colonization History.. Low rain was causing excessively little natural Pop growth.*
-Fixed a rare crash with “Strat” button on Regime bottom pane.
-Fixed glitch with Task priority sliders not doing exactly what they were supposed to do.
-Sped up some start of turn calculations (notably players with high stratagem count where being slowed down)
-Cult membership should go back to max 100%
-Fixed governor keeping to many reserves for construction of asset that is already partly finished.
-Fixed the Soldier salary setting decision that I broke in beta-2.
-Fixed faulty presence of 2 Bureaucratic Offices (constr finished of course) in same City… delete lowest on game load.
-Also fixed cause of those 2 bureaucratic offices. If you now conquer as Command Bunker/HQ/Palace it will only become a bureaucratic office if none yet present or level is higher and in that latter case it will replace the bureaucratic office.
-Fixed bug caused by clicking on Hide Units and then clicking on a Subunit of a previously already selected Unit
-Fixed a glitch i caused yesterday with 103-beta3 concerning the Stratagem speed-up.. It was to brutal and caused issues, seems especially in multiplayer games. Fixed now.. Including for running games. This might lead to some Stratagem loss in some cases though.
-Fixed glitch with Skill Log report with Admin Roll for Supreme Command Council *
-Fixed glitch with execution of Archeology Stratagem
-Fixed max-stack preview in battle window to always being minimal 100
-Fixed a logging issue where Leader suffered two relation effects but only one was logged
-Fixed glitch with text in CEO asks for tax reduction
-Fixed issue with Stratagem Categories not being selectable if player had more than 1000 stratagems.
-Fixed a number of minor issues in layout, list sorting, spelling
-Fixed some extreme case layout issues in the combat select window (not perfect yet, but at least not overflowing)
-Fixed glitch where you could use Group Move to enter territory of other Regime without declaring war
-Fixed a miss calculation with AdminStrain with delegated Assets
-Profiled a bit the Logistics Calculations (but still more needs to be done here)
-Profiled a bit the Scripting Interpreting Calcs
-Did some other profiling to improve turn speed as well
-Fixed issue with Windows Form not using correct mouse location (if you play in Windowed mode please check i didn’t actually break anything)
-Avoided crash in Windowed Mode if size of window and DPI would result in game below minimum screen size
-Fixed glitch with too high militia numbers (glitch occurred on higher difficulty settings mostly)
-Fixed broken “Supreme Leader Day” Stratagem. *
-Concerning Rail Logistics. The quickest route between two Rail capable Cities now takes into account All/100% Block Traffic Signs.
-Added “Unification” and “Annexation” Minor Dip Stratagems
-Fixed CAS for a Minor that joins you. It should start at 0.
-Fixed the mess caused in Stratagems (causing crashes) in v1.03-beta3. You might lose some Stratagems or have some weird swaps due to this however, but it should allow you to continue game.
-Think i might have fixed for good (ehem..) the varying and semi-random history map glitches in the AI moves screen (orange units glitch)
-Think i fixed the weird results with the 8-9 keys and Units going to Guard mode without being told so. It was probably an integer overflow issue that is fixed now.
-Tuned down the Fuel Cost quit a bit for the heavier engines in big size models *
-Added in an AI loyalty to a high relation with another Regime. It is partly depended on victory score difference and a little randomness,, but mostly on the Faction in power in the AI Regime. Expansionist,Corporate and Crusaders have low loyalty. Federalist, Realpolitik and Humanist have high loyalty. This should allow for some more enduring relations with major AIs. But never be sure of it of course! *
-Fixed scripting glitch (not sure if introduced with v1.03-beta5 scripting profiling, but probably) with faulty calculations of Credits (and some other formulas)
-Fixed weighting errors in events with Major Regimes causing some that should have appeared less to appear more. *
-Tech Fields that are missing a prerequisite condition for discovery are no longer shown as discoverable in the Tech Management Window
-Fixed glitch with lowering / hiring Worker salaries. You are not advised to exploit here again.
-Fixed Model Type Tree in Management window correctly showing Walkers need Heavy Tank, and not Medium Tank
-You can now play non-agression/friendship/victory pact on Human players as well *
-Major AI at war even if it doesnt want to be at odds with you will now start cancelling science and trade deals anyway ( if those are still in place) *
-Effect of multiple Leader Feats on same Stat or Skill is now actually shown in the Char Popup.
-Fixed small textual glitch in Senator Extradite Decision *
-Fixed a faulty concentric attack bonus calculation when HQ itself was involved.
-Added a special soundtrack for the Planet Generation phase
-Replaced the 4th women voices who where to shrill sometimes. It hurt the ears so to speak.
-Number of fine-tunings to decisions. Minor stuff. But needed a small fix here and there anyway. *
-Fixed glitch with 0 BP assigned to Task in Org
-Fixed nomenclatura with a bonus, now called “Public Industrial Bonus” and applies only to Industry, Heavy Industry and Hi-Tech Industry. *
-Public Prod Penalty now has a round of delay so it is always used.
-Fixed Public Prod Penalty not writing with Cult effects

-Fixed glitch with disappearing Artifacts after turn of 0 production
-Fixed log glitches with Cults
-Reduced publicProdPenalty from Eternity Movement
-Fixed missing robotic infantry sprites (with armour)
-Some minor tunings
-After the 4th branching (not counting the source) logistics “runners” will suffer AP penalties (5th branch=10 ap, 6h = 40, 7th=90, 8th=160,etc..).
-Improved the speed of the Logistics calculations a lot.
-Rail Logistics => 5pts per Hex * (instead of 2)
-Truck Logistics on Sealed => 7pts per Hex * (instead of 5)
-Increased speed of Logistics calculations a lot
-Increased speed of opening Asset Tab in Management Screen quite a bit

There as a question from last time that was never answered:
Does the updater remove files that are extra?
What about modified files, does it fix them?

Once again, the launcher option fails with a FTP problem.

No issues with the d/l .exe.

Any plans to fix?

I can't find a update button on the launcher

Edit: I manually downloaded the patch from the slitherine site. The launcher tells me to update to 1.02. I have one of the Beta 1.03 patches. Do I need to reinstall the game to get to 1.02?

Folks, my update function from the game launcher has never worked for any Matrix product I own -- and I own many -- in years and years and years, ever, as far as I can remember. Once I was told it was likely my McAfee security suite. Rather than fiddle with that I just get the download from the Matrix page. It took me about a minute from clicking on My Page to getting the download complete notification. Maybe I'm not demanding enough, but I'm not complaining. If you are rather new to Matrix, www dot matrixgames.com > My Page > Shadow Empires > File Downloads > Click Download for [PC] Update v1.04.00 (Jun 26, 2020). If you don't have an account, create one and register your game first. That will take a couple more minutes. That's good to have because you can also get the full game download file from there. Back that up, and you still have it if Matrix goes tits up and if Steam does likewise. Advantage of Matrix system. All my Matrix games are backed up externally. Should the update function work for everyone? Yes, Matrix, it should. But I don't see it as a game stopper. Does Steam auto update work better? Yes. Until you get an update you didn't want. And I love Steam, btw, except for the idiots and trolls on their forums, and I usually use the Steam version of Matrix games once they come up on Steam. No system is perfect. Best wishes.

Never use or like 'auto-updates' if direct download is available.
I want that file to store with my 'install file'...just in case.

Updater broken for me too, the very first update worked fine with it and last two gives me an error. My fire-wall allows.
Thanks Vic for the new update that is a ton of fixes! Keep up the good work!

Just back online-- v1.04 includes up to Open Beta Patch v1.03-beta12? Does it include anything not in the betas so far?

Thanks for this great update.

Just a note : i’m playing on PC Linux, via WINE, so i wasn’t reporting it, but to update i must DL the update.exe and install it.
I cannot use the launcher (i can open it, but then nothing is updated or a crash).

Anyway, i can update and play, so, i’m good.

I think Windows 10 gives you one chance in a popup to open the firewall for the updater, and after that you will have to open it manually, or ftp transfer will be blocked.

There may be other reasons for failure, but this is one. Custom firewalls and security software could complicate things further, as they usually do. (people wouldn't believe software protects them unless it is nagging them).

Updater hangs again upon trying to create a handle.

I'll do a fresh install later on, but don't want to be bothered with copying savegames out and such now, just wanted to play a few turns.

The updater being wonky is no big thing, but sure would be nice QOL improvement if it worked.

I'm sorry, but I have no idea what that means. I heard that this update was making changes to how Supply Bases work, which is why I did a quick search for that here. (I'll need to check out the rest of this when I have time.)

But "Supply Base" doesn't seem to be mentioned here at all, unless that's what a "runner" is supposed to mean. But I don't know what "branching" would have to do with that.

Sorry, but could someone explain? And do supply bases still work best when placed on or next to a truck station?

PS. Yeah, the update didn't work for me, either. Luckily, you provided a convenient link here so I could download it manually. So, no problem.

Same problem. There is no way to download 1.02.00 so what are we supposed to do?

The poor Store Page with the download links. It always has people claiming it does not exist:

The 1.02.00 installer is on your 'my page' in the Matrix store as a download.

You have to re-install from scratch using the updated release installer (1.02) from the product's page, and then apply the updates.

Did a fresh install of version 1.02, still no luck with the auto patcher. Still hangs after it says: Creating handle

Wonder or it has to do with me not having installed in the default directory and or drive. Still that should not be an issue anymore nowadays.

Applied the manual patch to 1.04, that went without problem.

Would at least like patch news / heads-up though. All the commercials are ok I guess (understand the need to sell stuff), but not important to the product I bought.

I have the same issue with "version too low", but the games is patched to the last v1.03beta. The download from the store page (v1.02) says "it takes 1 more hour", while speed is limited by the server... Can you give a information at what time the steam-keys will be available?! I had not any issues like this with steam in years.
