Oh fishy fish fish fish
Ayslhyn:
The installation of Bon Voyage has suddenly and inexplicably gifted me with visible fish.
Now I knew my old PowerMac was incapable of rendering the fish (at least after OFB). The new MacPro also could not do it. Until now.
With the installation of BV I can see the fish in SOME ponds (not all, dependent on size and depth) but also in decorative fishtanks. I'm also getting some water detail such as rain falling into the pool. I thought the water detail was directX?.
Any accounting for this? Did Aspyr put a fix in?
seelindarun:
Yes.
It's also in the Seasons patch. I chose to patch first before installing BV. I haven't play-tested thoroughly yet, so I don't know what the patch fixes besides the fish, and some water effects, but at least I don't think it borked anything. Not badly, anyway. ::)
I don't know if you'll want to patch or not. It certainly was massive, but all of it may have been rolled into BV. They came out about the same time.
Ayslhyn:
I put no patches in. I surely know better than that. A simple install.
Madame Mim:
You can't get away with saying that anymore. I know for a fact that Seasons & BV both firkle around and patch as they see fit. It's part of the reason why when I reinstall the game in a couple of hours I'm going to try putting the EP's in backwards and see what happens then.
seelindarun:
EPs for MacOS have always been a little different from the PC versions with regard to patches. Quite a few of the EPs have patched earlier ones as applicable, and sometimes even the base game, so I've never had an installation interrupted because of a missing patch.
This last patch for Seasons was a little unusual, as it was supposedly a combo patch, rolling together earlier patches for base game, Uni, NL, etc. I'm not entirely sure though, whether there was any change if you had already patched those EPs. I only took the extra step this time because I wasn't sure if everything in the Seasons patch had made it to BV, because of the timing.
