What the intention behind this?
I assume that it is the solve the join by preventing variables to carry over and thus prevent errors. I would assume that it's not possible or hard to properly reset everything without forcing the menu to close.

  • Fix: The 'red text' jedi/sith joinbug should now be fixed.
A bold claim, but if this is true, then this will hands down be one of the best updates to come out ever since 1.3 based upon that alone.

We certainly couldn't reproduce the bug anymore when we were testing the patch. You can thank Viserys for nailing that one.

Is anyone playing currently? I'm not sure if I'm having problems with the update not installing properly and not displaying servers with players or if no one's playing.

One question about the new Lunarbase, are the win and lose cinematics gone now? I was surprised by it though, I thought I wasn't going to like it since the old one is pretty much a classic after all these years.

Yes, plenty of people are playing. Presumably your game didn't update properly or... server filters are set wrong or... something

(Aside: I really enjoy the security camera on Lunar Base. You can see from Imperial Spawn directly into the secondary objective. Tactically, I guess it means you can guard against a flank-on-obj by just remaining in spawn, and watching the security cam to see if secondary objective is being hacked. Although the camera can be destroyed. Aside from tactics, it's also just fun to watch people from safety.)

Entirely false, see above, click the link in my post. There are 154 players on.
Hmm, I'll try to install it again. Thanks for telling me - cleared up a lot of confusion.

EDIT: Got it. One file, for some reason, didn't paste over properly. It's fixed. The serverlist displays players now and I can play. Thank you again!

Yea, I already checked, I fixed it to, dont know what file didnt upload correctly, maybe it didnt install correctly, had to leave pc on at night to download the new version, I reinstalled it in less than an hour, maybe it had to do with the launcher but meh.
Thx anyways Lessen.

I can do something to bring the pillars back. I just needed to do something fairly quick as I didn't have much time and needed to fix some of the other things listed on DS. The problem is the very outer spots, not the inner spots.
Ah, that would be great if you did, thanks. I guess the only pillars that need the fix are the ones underneath the tractor beam. DS has been my favorite map for quite a while now, so, sorry if I'm overreacting. Overall it's a great update, I just don't like map changes lol.

They are still present. Saw the imperial win one last night.

This ship you mean? The one actually in the hangar at some point in the movie unlike catwalk? :p
