Release 2.1

Get Release 2.1 here!

Just fixed a couple small bugs, and tried to make it Mac compatible by attempting to remove the rainbow spew. Unfortunately I have no Mac testers at this time, so I don’t know if I succeeded. I also fixed a small map bug that prevented tall creatures from traveling into the Greenhouses.

Remember that you MUST, MUST, MUST, MUST delete all sprite files in your Images directory beggining with the prefix, “moe_C2toDS_” and inject C2toDS into a NEW WORLD, IF you’re upgrading from the FIRST release. If you don’t, things will mess up! The cheese machine and lifts in particular.

C2toDS Release 2!

The highly anticipated C2toDS Release 2 has arrived and it’s jam-packed with all kinds of goodies!

Such additions include:

• Full transportation system, including to and from Albia and the Capillata
• A wide variety of Albian plants and wildlife
• New additions to C2 such as the Air Trolley (among other exciting additions)
• New vendors
• Toys!
• ...and a few secrets to discover! ;)

Get it here!

And don’t forget to get the music here!

The first release had dependency bugs and would not inject. If you were unable to install the first release, you can re-download the whole thing above, or download this somewhat smaller patch.  Sorry for the inconvenience.

This release is far from finished. Send bug reports to:

C2toDS (-at-) Gmail.com (CAOS errors only, please)

And as always, we love your feedback! Leave your comments below or on our Facebook page. :)

 

Credits and Shout Outs!

I forgot to put this in the credits, but I really should give a big shout out Elastic Muffin for giving us a sub-domain and bandwidth to host C2toDS so we don’t have to deal with those nasty file-share sites!  Thanks EM!

Also, thanks to Aquashee, for assisting me with some post-release beta testing, and for ideas and suggestions. :)

And of course, Liam, my partner in crime, for coding things, and a whole boatload of other Liamnessness…plus for poking and prodding me into make a new release. ;)

And last but not least, the community, for not dying on me! Stay strong! Stay supportive! Keep developing, commenting, drawing, writing, or whatever it is you do to contribute to the Creatures Community. Thanks!

GOG Sales!

The sale has ended. Hope you were able to get the games while they were cheap!  You can get them now for $9.99—still a great price. :)

Good Old Games.com is having a spectacular sale!  You can get The Albian Years, Exodus, and Creatures Village for 4.99 each!

If you’ve never played any of these titles, I highly recommend making a purchase--particularly if you’ve never played the original Creatures 2.

While C2toDS will be accurate, expansive, and more advanced than Creatures 2, it can never replace the quaint atmosphere and quirks of the original; not to mention it contains the Emerald, Hebe, Golden Desert, Frog and Pixie Norn breeds—arguably the most adorable of all the series!

So while you wait for C2toDS, there’s never been a better time to go snatch up The Albian Years and play the original. Not to mention, the original game is the best sneak peak of what is to come you can find!

Thanks to Jessica from Discover Albia for bringing it to my attention through her thoughtful Facebook and Twitter updates!

To my knowledge, all of these games work on Vista and Windows 7. However, I am not the manufacturer or a sales rep. Please don’t ask questions in my comments section about compatibility, pricing, marketing, or anything equally unrelated to C2toDS and Creatures. Thanks. :)

C2toDS Preview Agent from the CCSF 2010!

This is a C2toDS sneak peak agent from Moe! 

It adds relocatable butterflies and pear plants to the Capillata, giving it a whole lot more life. 

You can download the C2toDS preview agent over at the CCSF 2010 website!

HEY YA'LL

Just an update to assure you that despite popular belief, we are not dead. Resting for a while, perhaps, but not dead. :)

Have a complementary screenshot in the meantime!

Boo! D:

Sometime around 1998 Creature Labs released a Halloween object pack.  As that season approaches, and Albia has graced our screens once more, it was only fitting to reproduce the Halloween pack.

There are two agents in the package.  One for C2toDS, to decorate your world just as it was in C2, and one for Docking Station to liven up your Meso.

All the objects of the pack have been remade and altered, with a few additions, namely the pots and wind-up-bat toy you see above.

Some of the objects can be quite frightening, so expect to see a lot of scared creatures if you install these cobs! :)
