My processor is 2.7 GHz Intel Core i7

Intel HD Graphics 3000 384MB

4GB 1333 MHz DDR3

To be honest, I’m not exactly sure what you mean by that. Could you possibly tell me what I am looking for specifically.

apologies, i was quoting one of the developers there (@sdee), but i believe she/they were looking for the driver version on your graphics card, perhaps? its always best to keep those updated…

see? i’m learning @not_owen_wilson!

I’m just checking for any updates

Just need some conga music and then we can call it a conga line! :smiley:

sooooooo, i run xp, and i get this? any fix?

I don’t know about that specific error, but I do know Stonehearth isn’t yet supported on XP, sorry. :disappointed:

You sure do take a lot of things these days.

On that note I’m off to bed!

So I was looking around in the files for Stonehearth and found that a berry plate and berry basket are counted as plants… Team Radiant you have some explaining behind your logic… :wink:

Edit: So I was doing some more delving of the files and I edited something, and now I have this…

Why did you delve and edit the files in the first place? It (almost) never means good things… enjoy your Purpleland :stuck_out_tongue:

Well what all you don’t know (but now know) is that was the first step for one of my mods… :wink:

@SteveAdamo, if you buy the $30 Stonehearth right now, you will get acces to every following Alpha/Beta to the final release right? You also get a Steam key which you have to redeem on Steam to get the game… right? :wink:

You do indeed :slight_smile:

You will receive a Steam key yes - you don’t need to redeem it to access the game as you can download straight from Humble Bundle, likewise redeeming the game through Steam won’t deactivate your Humble download, so you can have both at the same time :slight_smile:

The benefit of downloading through Steam though is that you will receive the latest (untested) builds - this Dev Blog post talks about it all :slight_smile:

@Geoffers747 has covered all your points! I just wanted to mention what I wasn’t aware of until that last blog post (that you can apply a setting in Steam in order to have the latest builds automatically pushed to you)…

for those who are more “adventurous”, this is definitely for you! :smile:

Well… I bought it now (about 2/3 hours ago) and it was awesome! Can’t wait for the later versions! Have you seen my little photo-adventure yet?

It was brought up in my bug post about the steam version but I’m interested to get an official word on it.

Is the Humble bundle updated when the Steam version gets updated. I understand that steam is a much better way to distribute updates, but unfortunately I can’t get my Steam version to work at all, but my humble bundle one works fine. It’s strange because the Steam graphics test 2 worked perfectly fine for me. I’m about to do a complete re-install of windows to try and get it to work, but I’d really like to avoid that. @sdee, do you guys update the Humble version with the Steam version?

I believe not all the time. Steam gets every release they put out, and HB only the ones they consider ‘stable builds’.

here’s the official word (from @Tom) over on the blog:

Was the build also sent to Humble Bundle?

Nope. Because these builds are pretty much untested, we want to limit their exposure. Steam has a way of quickly flipping between the unstable and stable builds, which is why we’re releasing there.

When we have an update with a critical mass of bug fixes and features, we will test it and push it to both Humble and Steam.
