CIU version 149 BETA

if you fail a mission, it can mess up some gatling gun chicks (some of them are upside down and vice versa)

also is it intentional that i didn’t get the points from the “early bird” bonus after death?

either ci1 or ci2 should have different game over snippets/tracks

iA already gets pinged whenever someone posts on any of his topics, so pinging him is mostly inconsequential

i assume you still need to push out the beta for one of the episodes on steam

Still no.

It’s too early yet. You’ll find out soon enough.

That’s normal. When you die, they stop tracking you. Gatlings start tracking from the bottom-right, so the first two have a change to get an intial lock, while the rest remain in their default position.

You did get it. You can see it on the video.

Yes, but that’s only the beginning. All of the Steam games need to be working properly (non-beta) before DLC purchases are enabled in CIU. This is done to avoid cases where someone who already has bought an episode on Steam goes ahead and buys it again within CIU without knowing that their purchase carries over.

you can see that i still have 0 points on my score hud

Ah. After losing all your lives, your score is not allowed to increase. Death is processed first, then the bonus, so no score.

Advance Preview Update

There’s a crashing bug in the Advance Preview for Android (v.149.5.0) whenever you try to start a DLC game. This has been fixed in v.149.5.3:

Android (32-bit): https://universe.chickeninvaders.com/files/CIU.ia.armv7.1490503.apk

Okay, turns out for some reason it doesn’t help with the recent android hotfix and it keeps crashing while log in to the game during an episode going on in my end.

Your posts were deleted because they were off-topic. This thread only discusses the v.149 beta.

Oh, no. Check that the version shown on the main screen (top-left) is indeed v.149.5.3

Does the game outright crash, or does the server kick you out?

and in the official update I mean 149 version will be avaible?

No. Even when v.149 is officially released, you will NOT be able to purchase DLC within CIU. You will ONLY be able to export an existing Steam purchase to CIU.

Purchasing will fully work in v.150.

Yes, it crashes after log in and i am using the least version with an hotfix applied shown right here.

Cluck. Ok, let me try logging into your account from Android.

Ok, DLC server was serving some stale files. Fixed server-side in v.149.3 :medal_sports: Bug

Go to Options → DLC Downloads and “Delete” all files. Then, try again and let me know if it works for you (the first time you’ll be kicked out until the DLC download completes – this is normal).

Okay, it works now and got in to the game… hooray!

thank you so much!!!

I see another problem. The DLC server was serving uncompressed files. Files on Android are supposed to be compressed to save space.

:warning: I’ll fix this server-side, however if you are already in the middle of a download, you might receive a “Bad file hash” error, and/or be kicked out of the DLC server.

If this happens, go to Go to Options → DLC Downloads and “Delete” all files, then try again.

Being kicked out with “Still downloading” means that the DLC files required to resume your mission are not yet available. Wait for the download to complete, then log in again.

an off topic but it’s about CIU, on these day’s I make some progress with the quests! and as I notice there allways some satellite shots! and on the easy wave’s I use only the satelittes, wich lead me to an ideea. I mean maybe it’s a little to late for that, but it will be cool an medal for complete an wave without use the main weapon! I mean satellite or special weapon!

Pre-mounted satellites (most notably ICBM because yes methinks) can recharge by themselves by the start of each mission, therefore I believe it’s fine to get awarded for that. None of the same can be said about special weapons, though.

Would you like to beat at least one wave without primary or special weapons?
  • Yes, I would!
  • Nah, I’m good.
  • I’d do it even if there’s no such medal :​p
  • I’d grind for many such medals!

i was thinking of a full screen dialog that appears when a player clicks on the dlc section for the first time, asking if they have owned any episodes in the past. something similar could be added for each episode too

Wait, i thought they already do that? I mean… other enemies, including bosses and normal chickens and some chasing bullets. I noticed that they still look into player’s position, and even shoot correctly to the player.
