Patch
 
I have a question.
Where can I get the king kong patch v1.1???

Delacroix02 22-06-2006 06:54

There is no such patch. It is not needed. The game is nearly bug-free.

ok Thks 4 the info

Joe Forster/STA 22-06-2006 07:15

Ehm, for official updates, perhaps, you could go to the official site. Sounds logical, doesn't it?

Delacroix02 22-06-2006 07:37

Yea, that's the general rule.

Or, to the publisher's technical support.

A little offtopic: did you guys notice that more and more Ubisoft's products require little or no updates? This includes: Prince of Persia series (only one mini patch for Sands of Time), King Kong...

Joe Forster/STA 22-06-2006 08:33

Few updates from Ubisoft? They are probably busy with removing the last bits of Starforce-related shit from their sources and other development stuff... :D

Delacroix02 22-06-2006 08:45

No, really. Some of their products are really the most bug-free games ever. Whereas others... well, let's see Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory for instance - four patches released so far (the most current version is - as we all know - 1.05) prove that this game was full of bugs and hell knows how many more bugs are yet to be discovered in this title.

No not mad dela - i just occasionally post messages like that to see what kind of reaction i get !

Why be mad - its not like somebody's gonna pay a visit to my house and slit my throat is it now ? !! ( at least i hope not anyway - GULP !! )

Actually i owe The Godfather an apology as i think i misread his post mistaking his username for the game !! Apologies to the Godfather for that one.

As for him being a newbie etc , i agree with what you have said in your reply but the mods normally say you should read the forum rules whether its your first post or your thousandth !!.......right Joe ? ;)

No offense intended im just a troublemaker !!:p

Delacroix02 22-06-2006 11:21

Hey - troublemakers actually often bring important matters to the staff's attention, so that these matters can be taken care of quickly. It's okay.

As for Godfather's problem... ah, sooo... OK, your mistake. Anyway, the problem GF had with King Kong is also present in SAS: Anti Terror Force, Russian Roulette II and a few other games. Strange though, because King Kong states to support joysticks and joypads.

As for the case of newbies - if their violation of the rules is just a minor offence (like not searching the forums), I believe the offenders should be treated reasonably, like this:

- check for sure, if the guy actually did break a rule
- advise politely, that he/she should read the rules, especially rule (XX)
(put a number of the rule you mean).
- in case of any aggression from the user, just ban the SOB for a week, so he/she can cool down.

If a major offence is made (like discussing warez), the person in question should be banned immediately, and ordered to read the rules.

As for slitting your throat... Not a bad idea, since I can be a psychopath at times. Just give me a few hours to find out where you live :-P

dazzashazza 22-06-2006 11:47

Nice reply Dela :)

I whole heartedly agree with all that you typed and to be honest im not really a troublemaker. Having read many of your posts i believe you would make a firm but fair moderator and i feel the likes of Joe and a couple of the others could learn from you. Have a browse through some of their replies and you will see what i mean.

Whilst i agree that people should read the rules before posting and shouldnt discuss warez and piracy which i know could jeopardize the gamecopyworld site i do feel that many of the moderators are a little quick in banning or being harsh in their comments especially towards new members .

It's not really an issue with the mods they are only doing their best to protect the website and in the main are very helpful so best let it lie.

Have you found my address yet ? got a rolling pin waiting hehe....:p

Delacroix02 22-06-2006 15:10

Well, to be honest, a computer-controlled plane is now flying full-speed towards your house. I mean, what the hell? If I am to commit a homicide, let there be some serious fireworks!

Seriously, thanks for backing me up on this one. I believe, that a warnings/infractions system would suffice. I would make it look like this:

- 3 infractions / warnings - temp ban (2 months)
- 4th infraction / warning - permanent ban

An infraction would disappear from the account after 1 month.
Which means if yu get 3 infractions in 3 months, once per month, you don't get banned. But hey, hey, hey! There are rules and RULES. Let's take a look at my idea of infraction degrees:

1. For first-time violation of rules #1, #2, #3, #7, #11, #12 - infraction level 2.
2. For second-time violation of the same rule (out of ones mentioned in point 1) - temp ban.
3. For third-time violation of the same rule - permanent ban.
4. For first-time violation of other rules - infraction level 1.
5. For second-time violation of other rules - infraction level 2.
6. Third-time violation of other rules leads to a temp-ban.
7. If an user had at least once received a temp-ban, he/she is rewarded with a permanent ban for breaking ANY rule even once.
8. If during temp-ban, a banned user harasses / spams / attacks a moderator in any way, the reward is a permanent ban.

Would implementing such a system be okay?

On the other hand, a promotion system could also be implemented. In the system I recommend, a "+" icon is located under the nick of every user. If this user's post has helped you in any way, you click the "+" icon and a dialog pops up, in which you have to explain, how this pos helped you. And this user gets a reward point! 10 reward points can lead to lowering the infraction level by 1. How's that?

Sorry for that offtopic, I just couldn't resist.

DABhand 22-06-2006 16:09

LOL

From mini-mod to mini-owner.


I wonder whats next :P

dazzashazza 22-06-2006 17:57

Hmmmm......seems a tad complicated :p

Back to King Kong :D

BTW....your missile missed the house :eek: :D

Delacroix02 22-06-2006 23:32

Well, it was aimed to wake Kong Kong. He'll visit you.

Joe Forster/STA 23-06-2006 02:53

A complicated banning system should be automized which, in fact, needs to be supported by the bulletin board software. Is it? I don't think so. Also, I don't think I've ever been quick or unjust with banning; I might have been harsh a few times but, well, I'm also human... :o

By the way, the netiquette recommends that people should keep reading public forums for, at least, two weeks before they post in there. Guess why; to become familiar with what's allowed and what isn't and what to expect from senior forum members, moderators, administrators. With this in mind, even quick banning and harsh behavior may be justified (although that may not be a good idea, from a completely objective point of view).

Furthermore, the forum rules are very clear - I'm happy and proud that my recommended refinements and explanations have been added to them - and, with the big pop-up windows, you just can't miss them. So, is there any real reason to get annoyed when someone calls a newbie's attention to the fact that he made a mistake (e.g. not searching the forum) that is obviously a mistake, according to the obvious forum rules?! And I'm very sorry but, with real life around, most people, including the moderators, don't have time to explain everything, including the forum rules - what, where, how, why - again and again and again to everyone. In fact, it shouldn't be explained at all; people should grow up and understand that they need to educate themselves instead of expecting other people to educate them, especially when that educational service - e.g. this forum - is FREE!

Delacroix02 23-06-2006 03:34

Well, your statement is just and I totally agree with you. With so much hassle required to add the features I mentioned, and amount of work required to maintain such service, it is an utopia, having it here. Well, I believe that I've never seen an unjust ban - although it is sometimes visible, that you guys are a bit too harsh. Anyway, just like you said, we are all human beings, and you have the right to lose patience sometimes. I think, that with such dedicated people and clearly explained rules, this forum is one of the most user-friendly forums I've ever been to. Just take a look at the user count - it's popular, isn't it? So, with all the good and bad sides, this forum is a verified, good service. And it's FREE! Cheers.

DABhand 23-06-2006 06:52

Well you know say you just became a mod and went ban happy, now thats being harsh.

But after a number of weeks, you see the same crap, the same requests, the same questions (when they could have searched), the same advertisements, the same warez crap.

You would get a bit miffed and be harsh.

Joe Forster/STA 23-06-2006 06:55

Well, to get annoyed and become harsh within a few days/weeks, because of the same crap pouring in all the time, you don't even have to be a moderator! ;)

dazzashazza 23-06-2006 08:36

Weeellllll !!!! I have to admit, i agree with you dab and joe.

Peace;)

Delacroix02 23-06-2006 08:55

Peace;)

You guys are totally right. Violation-of-the-rules routine can kill a man's temper...

dazzashazza 23-06-2006 09:29

Ooops !...nearly forgot...agree with you too Dela :D

Are you actually Polish Dela or a Brit living in Poland ? Im intrigued as your english is very good.

<<< flattery will get him everywhere , hehe......:p

PoP Warrior with In With had lot of glitches Ubisoft never corrected and the patch development was cancelled

Delacroix02 23-06-2006 11:07

Dazzashazza - I'm Polish.
Acal3000 - I didn't notice any "glitches"...

Not all ocurred in all machines but used be one very know near to end game called as the "time portal bug" but like I said not all computers presented the same glitches

Delacroix02 23-06-2006 14:05

Uh-huh, I understand. Well, this might prove to be a problem. There is no official SDK for PoPWW and using any unofficial tools to modify the game files, even in good faith is a violation of EULA. So, the game will remain buggy.

acal3000 23-06-2006 14:15

Yeah is very common on multiplataform games like POP released for several consoles to don't have too many SDk Tools or mods when are on Pc like PC only games

Delacroix02 23-06-2006 14:18

So true. And without an official editing tool you cannot modify ANYTHING in the game, in any way, because it is a violation of EULA.

mojo8850 25-06-2006 15:12

Hi Guys

I have downloaded the crack from GCW dont seem to work i used the RELOADED version..

Delacroix02 25-06-2006 15:47

Yea, now I know very much. What is the error message? What version have you applied the crack to? For example it's not working with Polish version and 5GB High Res Edition.
