Alpha test v0.6.8

[oskarwiksten]

It's that time again. A new alpha of Andor's Trail is out for those interested that want to help test the new version.
http://code.google.com/p/andors-trail/downloads/list

Please note that this is an ALPHA version, which means that there may be several bugs still left in the game. It is therefore very important to SAVE YOUR GAME to some untouched slot before even installing this alpha version. The game might still contain bugs in the storyline or otherwise that are not reversible.

Specifically, I would like you guys to test the following things in this new version:
- Are there any misspellings in the conversations?
- Are the conversation options fluent everywhere?
- Are the new monsters too difficult or too easy?
- Can you solve the new quests? How did you solve them?
- Did you find any unique items?

The changelog for v0.6.8 is:
- Fixed conversation typos
- Updated conversation interface
- Monsters will now respawn on other maps than the current one
- Support for containers and searchable crates (not that many added to the world though)
- Drop item bug fixed
- Updated world with Vilegard settlement
- Updated NPCs with about 400 new lines of converation
- Several new merchants
- Continuation on the main story
- Russian translation by Dreamer
- Italian translation by k6blue

Thanks in advance for all your help in the alpha test.

The dialog box issue with tablets is fixed and looks great. The new dialog format is very nice overall. It really feels like you are choosing your own path now.

Do you want us to post bugs and typos here or on the bug log?

I would say post typos here in the bug section of the forum but the more serious ones should go onto the tracker.

Wow I'm already done with all the quests for the new update. No new tough monsters, or really decent gear. I'm beggingvfor the heartstone

[demon]

Again finished all new quests, no bugs. The weapons and armor were nothing short of mediocre, the new monster and new bosses were laughable however i am drooling for a tough boss that will give me that heartstone so i can get a really cool weapon. but until then im waiting paitently
