Media Audits Completed and In-Progress

[Circo]

For most of this initial beta year the media downloads didn't really work all that well. The media system that was included with the early beta (alpha) was more of a placeholder, it only kind of worked just barely. About two months ago the dev team replaced the media system with a fully fleshed out new system. Media was reimported and it got much much better but there were still plenty of issues. So the media audits started in earnest and things are looking pretty great.

Please feel free to request systems, tried to start with the most ubiquitous and popular systems first. Also of note just because an audit says completed doesn't mean there will not be further updates, just that we audited for proper formatting and matches.  Any feedback is welcome.

HyperSpin 2 is basically entering the stable beta phase this month so enjoy all the updated media.  I should stop and send a big massive shout out to the internal discord testing team and the dev staff.  WOW you guys are amazing!

Keep in mind that systems not listed are still going to have fairly complete artwork assets in most cases, they just haven't been audited yet.

I've lost count of the number of times I've reinstalled HS2... But damn it is worth the effort. Awesome news on the completed Audits thanks for your dedication Circo. TeknoParrot is in progress. Now that's happy news for me. Those games are some of my favourites to the point I pay for TeknoParrot. This is gonna be fun. 

 

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night.
