BEW Forum

I am currently playing v1.4.2 so I have missed patches 3-4 since latest patch looks to be 1.4.5. Does the latest patch include the previous patches?

Yes, the latest one always contains the previous patches.

I am have now made a Lunch pledge for 10$ on Patreon with effect from 1st September . How do I obtain access on the Lunch Forum.
Also I am unable to Download and access Episode 6 as I have an Imac and therefore use Safari .

Make sure you've extracted the whole archive and not just a single file from it.

Send Wolfschadowe a PM and request access. To PM, click on his username and select "private message."

Kexter already responded to your other question but to reiterate, you must extract (unzip) the entire package onto your HDD. Then double-click "Start."

I am downloading the entire package however when I unzip the file I get the same result each time.

I am downloading the game to Safari , Unzipping the file and double clicking the Start . The result is the same each time that I download as stated in my original email.

There is a compatibility bug with Safari, although previous versions of Safari worked with previous versions of BEW. We are looking into the cause of the current bug. In the meantime, you should be able to play using an alternate browser such as Chrome or Firefox as a workaround until we get the issue fixed.

Your point is well taken. It has been a long time. This has been a very complicated and frustrating episode to get right and nobody feels worse about the delay than Wolfschadowe. There have been some major changes to the underlying game mechanics to include several new character stories. No future episode should ever take anywhere near as long.

As mentioned in another thread, Episode 7 is due out in mid- to late-August for the "early release" group and a week or so after that for the general public. It is currently in beta testing and looking good. Almost all of the major work is finished but there are a few of the smaller scenes that need a bit more tweaking and a few stubborn bugs to kill.

Does the latest episode also include the previous episodes? I find the versioning and naming of this game extremely confusing. Is it a single game? Or there are 6 separate games, one for each episode? If so, where are the links to download the previous episodes?

If it's a single game, calling the latest version EP06 was probably not the greatest idea. It should be called something like EP01_to_EP06 to make it clear it includes everything. Or just not include the episode number in the name at all.

Yes, the current download includes all chapters (episodes) up to and including chapter 6.

BEW is a single game, being released in episodes. The use of the term "Chapter 6" is actually just an easy way to refer to things and is, as you note, a little confusing. The actual, correct reference should be "Version 1.6.5." That is the current designation and includes all previous versions. The next version, due out in the next few weeks, will be "version 1.7" and include all "chapters" including the newest, "Chapter 7."

I hope that makes it a little more clear.

Yes, it's clear now. Thanks for the quick answer. Now that it's all clear, I can pledge a beer
