Thank you Egosoft!

The "Savegame-TargetSelect-Crash-Bug" has really been fixed, yippie

And I noticed a slight gain in my Frames-per-Second, when I left the dock, and moved around, that's great.

Now the weekend is saved, back in-game

Congrats to all the Devs for working so hard over the past fortnight
to get this patch out in time for the weekend

I'm reading through the readme 1.2.1 and this comes to my attention;

Immediately stop the game, should you experience any of the following symptoms during play:

- dizziness
- altered vision
- eye or muscle twitching
- mental confusion
- loss of awareness of your surroundings
- involuntary movements and/or convulsions

I'll try to follow that in the near future

Its great that this patch is out, but to the egosoft guys:

Can I have some sort of clue as to weather issues with some game controllers such as the one I had here : http://forum.egosoft.com/viewtopic.php?t=96659 are at leaste being looked at for the 1.3 patch? If not I may as well return the game whilst I still can.

Thanks,

Jason

Cool, just tried it and my mouse lag and performance problems have gone in game, still a bit laggy on the main menu but who cares about that

.

Couldn't open the RTF readme file with Word 2000, or wordpad any ideas?.

jthorpe4 · Post by **jthorpe4** » Fri, 11. Nov 05, 19:58

oh forgot to say

Well done to the dev teams

Mr. K · Post by **Mr. K** » Fri, 11. Nov 05, 20:05

Well I can attest to the improved performance..

I only run a GF3Ti200 currently.. and barring the expected slowdown in sectors where there's loads of ativity, the game is *playable* on my system..

That said I did just get a CTD due to swap file size, but then I'm still running Firefox/Itunes and all my background stuff as well.

Give yourselves a pat on the back EgoSoft, you done good

Hi Egosoft etc,

Thanks for the 1.2.1 update - perfect timing, as I had planned a good long evening tonight of X3 playing! Been so busy work-wise lately that haven't had time to play, so thanks!

By the way, to all of those of you that asked, the Readme for 1.2.1 included with the 19MB patch just says the same as before:

X³: Reunion 1.2.1 Readme updates

Along with various minor issues, this is planned to make a large further optimisation for memory usage that will again significantly improve performance over 1.2.
