Trouble with achievements

Post by Spitzeuk »

So with the new steam supported achievements and patch 2.6 I copied my game files into steam/steamapps/common and got steam to download what it needed (or at least didnt recognise), which was surprisingly little. Updated and it all works fine.
I start a new game as I read that achievements will be vanilla only and I've used a few scripts for a while now. I have no *modified* tag which is good and the game is going fine until I complete the flight school as a test and don't seem to get the achievement.

Just wondering after I check the 'Global Achievements' on steam to see 0% on every one, are they not active yet, is anyone getting any or have I just missed something?

Thanks in advance for any info/answers.

I just started a new game as well and completed the flight school - no achievement, and I'm not modified (I was, but I deleted my scripts directories, let steam re-download them, and the next time I started the game the "Modified" tag wasn't there any more

EDIT: I've just checked, all achievements for x3tc appear to be 0% globally... this implies something's wrong, either with the game or with steam's backend

Hi everyone,

Yes, there is currently a problem with unlocking the achievements. We have tracked down the problem and are working to get it fixed as soon as possible.
Come watch me on Twitch where I occasionally play several of the X games

thanks for keeping us informed :)

one question - when this is resolved, will we need to re-trigger any achievements (i.e. re-take the flight school) or will it pick up the completed achievement status from our save game when we load it? or are you not sure yet?

Sadly it is not possible to avoid re-doing the things to earn those achievements. :(

I just logged into Steam and it seems they have removed the achievements for now, probably for bug squashing. :roll:
