Demise Patch 342 Notes

BACKUP DATA FILES:
It is hightly recomended that you backup your data files. If you did a default installation of Demise, your data files are located under: c:\program files\artifact entertainment\Demise\system\demise

MAIN EXECUTIBLE:
Extract the new executible to the root demise folder by running DemisePatch342.exe If you did a default demise installation, this folder is located at c:\program files\artifact entertainment\Demise

NEW DATA FILES:
If you did a multipart download of the data files, then recombine them by running disk1.exe

Extract the new data file to the root demise directory by running DLL.exe If you did a default demise installation, this folder is located at c:\program files\artifact entertainment\Demise

The patch has been released to the public. The beta testing group had no problems with the patch so everything should be good. This patch is focuses on stability issues only, so issues:

119: When Demise is installed, and the patch is applied, when the game is started it makes a ding sound and closes.

3: Crashing in town...especially after mapping large areas and then swapping inventory items. The game either gives a Demise error or the Blue screen of death.

40: Random crashes from a general protection fault in GDI.exe module. This may be related to having a a lot of newly mapped squares on your automap.

14: There is an indexing error generated by high level treastise-type items.

9: Attempting to Pick up/Drop Character/Companion causes an error in some circumstances. (Press keyboard P)

36: Playing game and suddenly dropped back to the Windows desktop with no error.

146: Sometimes on exit not all tasks are terminated. - Part of this issue has been resolved.

The patch has also been broken into two pieces so that updates in the future will only be a 1.5MB download.

I hope everyone enjoys the patch.
