A free update along with a GREAT sale? I’m buying copies for my friends.
All right, you win. You made me get Steam just for the update and expansion.
Also, this is the Fleshsmithing I thought I was getting when I first downloaded the game! Thanks so much!
When is the update coming to HB customers? I see there’s a .tar on Desura, but just for Linux. While that enough for me, some might be unhappy about this.
Where did you find the tar?
On Desura, they’ve got a download available as well. But I’d rather it was on Humble as well.
I meant where on Desura did you find the tar? I’m not seeing it on the Dredmor page and searches for “name expansion” don’t turn up a different product. I must be missing something obvious. I tried a re-install but no changes. I’ve upgraded to 1.0.11 but am still not seeing the content…
Desura: we’re getting the new DLC up there as soon as we can (as well as Windows builds.) We had to stop and draw art for the store, and then we have to get it hooked up by Tim,…. so it might be a bit, but we’ll get you sorted.
Same for HIB folks, although this is an ongoing pain in the neck as they’re not set up to sell expansions whatsoever. We have a storefront that we are working on with them, but it’s an ongoing thing. Since the new DLC is free, we’ll probably just let you patch it yourself. 🙂
Thanks for the info. As a Linux user, I’m all about self-patching until a more proper version becomes available (e.g., Minecraft), I just couldn’t find the patch described. I still can’t, but I’m taking your response to mean that it’s not available yet in any form but Steam.
It’s on the product page when you’re logged in. On the right side, below the different buying choices.
This thread may have a working download link: http://community.gaslampgames.com/threads/yhtntep-without-steam.3571/ ; we’re going to try to get it up on a (legit) torrent as well, if it isn’t already.
I love the new expansion, and the fact that now dozens of other people will make even more free expansions for me, but is anyone else encountering the game freezing when you try to exit?
Just so other people don’t make the same mistake…the sale is Steam-only, so don’t go to Desura for a DRM-free version unless you’re willing to pay full price. Which, I guess I was….
Ninety cents!? Hello, diggle operators? Eric’s joining you. Yes, I’ll hold.
Think there might be a similar sale for drm-free Desura? I dislike steam. 🙁
After one of the latest patches (I haven’t been playing for a while) I’m experiencing crashes on savegame under win7 and xp. Also where did recipe for molten orb go?
How do i get the latest update if i get the game from a bundle?
I don’t know if you guys already have heard, but Felicia Day (!) mentioned Dungeons of Dredmor in her latest episode of The Flog as one of her five favorite things this week:
http://theflog.geekandsundry.com/
Oh yeah, totally saw that. Made everyone’s day in the office!
thank you, for trying to look out for us hib-bundle buyers. I will gladly give you some more of my money as soon as the mac version expansion is in some way available drm-free an hib-bundle compatible.
Is the steam sale over? Is there a way to play the steam version without actually needing Steam? I don’t really wanna waste the hard drive space on the main steam program.
Is the latest updated version on desura?
I still get a quest monster stuck in a wall every few games. Can’t seem to hurt it without destroying the wall. Sometimes, I explore the entire floor and can’t find the monster, it won’t show up on the minimap if its stuck in a wall.
And it might just be me, but Big Game Hunter’s Butchery procs all the time, even though I don’t have the skill. Pretty sure that isn’t supposed to happen.
Butchery will even proc without the monster dying, too. There’s nothing quite like hitting a bird (or diggle) and having meat spawn at it’s feet as it continues attacking you.
Oh, and it procs from non-animals too (such as Evil Magic Potatoes).
Are you wielding a cookbook? The cookbook tome (whatever its name is) comes with a chance of Butchery procs when you attack.
Really? I didn’t know that. That’s probably it, I found a cookbook in a lot of my runthroughs. Whew, that’s a relief
