Hi, any update for 1.7?
Boom  [author] 2 Apr, 2018 @ 7:00pm 
@Zerokylin I've fixed the issue and updated the mod to version 1.0.1.

Thanks for your help!

Please let me know if you discover any other problems with it.

Hello everyone!

I've recently followed up with the promised update that fixes the last known bug in this mod. Furthermore, I've switched to using semantic versioning, so the mod is now on version 1.0.0, rather than 0.4.

Let me know if you're having any trouble with the mod (and please provide context), and I'll roll out an update as soon as possible.

@Zerokylin What is the error message?
Zerokylin 30 Mar, 2018 @ 11:19am 
The update you added now causes an error message :c

Hello everyone!

I've recently updated this mod for the grand 1.6 update to the main game. I've taken this opportunity to clean up several aspects of the mod, and also add new translations! See full change log in the OP.

Also, I scanned the source code for the bug that @redmoth27 described, and found it to be impossible (assuming that GDT is managing mods correctly). Removing this mod should cause no adverse effects to your game.

I'll be following up with another patch for the bug described by @Kyouko Tsukino. Thanks again for your feedback.

@redmoth27 That's interesting, but I don't think it's likely. My mod only changes the static topic visibility amount in the code base. Removing the mod should reset it back to 4. I apologize if this hindered your experience with the game.

If it was truly an issue with lingering code, that's something outside of my control. The developers of the game itself are the ones that built the Mod API, which my mod merely integrates with (per the specifications of which they described). If you feel that this is a real issue, I would report it to Greenheart Games.

If you're able to reliably replicate this issue, I might be able to look into it. Of course, due to the reason above, my contributions may be limited.

I know your mod dosen't reveal all topics but I think it amy be the source.
redmoth27 7 Feb, 2018 @ 3:00pm 
I didn't like your mod so I unistalled it, but somehow me the 0.1% got this strange bug where some of the code was left behind, and even without the mod ALL TOPICS ARE REVEALED!

Sorry for the capslock its for dramatic effect.
Boom  [author] 6 Feb, 2018 @ 5:19pm 
@redmoth27 How so?

YOU RUINDED MY GAMME!!!!!!!!!!!!! :steamsad:
Boom  [author] 5 Nov, 2017 @ 6:30am 
@belltawaun We'll see. I'll have to play the game after the update to know if anything needs changing.

Will you upate this mod for the new update coming ..they just announced it..
Boom  [author] 29 Jan, 2016 @ 4:00pm 
@Kyouko how odd. This might be a trigger bug from the Vanilla game. I'll have to fix that.
Kyouko Tsukino 29 Jan, 2016 @ 3:27pm 
This mod's quite helpful since the randomness of starting topics may make it hard to choose something useful, but there's one little annoyance caused by the mod. Early in the game, when the pop-up comes asking you if you want to move to a bigger place, if you choose "not yet" then a message about how your move to a bigger office made more topics unlock.

Since you didn't move, you don't get any upgrade on topic visibility, and the message repeats itself every single time if you stay on the first stage.

Maybe you didn't consider that people would not move out of the garage 100% of the time? It happens. It helps the players with not going bankrupt at the first flop they get on the second stage.

@Boom Hi, I finished the translation can you put the link in your mod description?
Acegh4 14 Nov, 2015 @ 6:36am 
@Boom okay I'll begin now
Boom  [author] 13 Nov, 2015 @ 7:56pm 
@kaway.marinho

Absolutely! Let me know if you need any help.
Acegh4 13 Nov, 2015 @ 11:20am 
Developer can I translate your mod to portuguese? I put your credits and the original link

Awesome, thank you very much and take care! :)
Boom  [author] 11 Aug, 2015 @ 12:17pm 
Just updated the mod!

Changes are in the description.
Xeonzs 11 Aug, 2015 @ 2:14am 
Yea if you could add that it would complete the purpose of this mod :)
Boom  [author] 10 Aug, 2015 @ 12:57pm 
@Xeonzs

Good call. I meant to add that, but forgot to. I'll put that in the next update.
Xeonzs 10 Aug, 2015 @ 7:47am 
It's pretty nice, but it should dissapear as an option if all topics are researched or visible.
Xeonzs 9 Aug, 2015 @ 12:35pm 
Sounds good, I got anoyed that I only saw 4 predetermined ones everytime, this will increase my options just that little bit extra, will give it a try, thank you.

@Agathorn

It comes with the Steam Installation of Game Dev Tycoon, which you already have if you're able to subscribe to this mod.

Check your mods, you likely already have it. If not, try updating your game.

If all else fails, get it here: https://github.com/greenheartgames/gdt-modAPI

"Lastly, this does require the Game Dev Tycoon Mod API, which you should already have installed."

I have no idea what that is. Where do I get it?
