Default Re: Patch 2.13 available now

The new patch appears to have broken my existing single player game. Anytime I try ending the turn I get the error: kv_c:bad mt0

I believe it's somehow related with a golem using the Amon Hotep helm. Anytime I try changing his command from the mummification spell I get what appears to be a related error: rho:bad mt0

Anyplace where I can download the previous dom2.exe ?? that might not fix it... but worth a chance


===============
UPDATE
===============
Restarted the turn from the beginning and reproduced the error instantly by giving the golem the mummification command after switching to another commander then coming back to change the golems command the same error. Problem is definitely either with the Golem creature itself or the Amon Hotep helm.

===============
UPDATE_2
===============

The bug definitely appears to be with the 'mummification' summoning command. I was able to continue my game as long as I don't use this spell. Also when setting combat commands I noticed 'mummification' was also listed here which must be part of the bug since this is not suppose to be a battle spell.
geo981010 was able to find another related with my bug discovery as well... nice work.

It isn't just Amon Hotep - I get the same problem when I select the "Summon Djin" with the Magic Lamp if I try to anyway alter the command after giving the summon order or if I try to alter the commander's orders or if I try to execute the turn with the summon command.

I can use the Vine Crown and the Wolfstone no problem, need to try Gatestone and Kurgi's Gift next... cheat protection was on btw, so I wonder if this related to that?

where is the cd - key stored ?
if you let you send the exe by a friend who hasn't patched yet it should work but is the cd - key in the exe stored ?
that would be rather bad then

The cdkey is stored in a plain text file appropriately named "key". Replacing the .exe shouldn't do anything to the cdkey.

I believe that the cd key is stored in a simple text file in your dom2 directory called "key".

Default Re: Patch 2.13 available now

Some issues that have not been fixed, at least according to the list of what has and has not been repaired:

Units:
Demonbred (121): Unit is Demonbred (87) turned into prophet. 87 has base undead ldr 25; 121 has base undead ldr 0

Captain (293): Unit should be mounted, not infantry (graphic is mounted, but the unit is not, has feet slot for items)

Holy Deep One (1009): Unit should have Magic leadership or Mad Deep Ones will self-destruct, rendering underwater Imprint Souls useless.

Default Artifact bug status?

What is the status of the Artifact bug mentioned above?

Does anyone else remember Saber Cherry pre-
(or was it post-?) patch-fix that changed things like these, but in a larger scale? Official quick-fix mod would be a nice thing, but someone should do it and we can't just put it for the developers. And as Zen and SC have both left the field it might not be the best idea to give it someone like Gandalf who are too important to risk leaving... I were going to make one, few months ago. It didn't come to be.
