I tried loading a savegame where I had that last crash and I was able to go past it. About the scraps, make sure that in the main menu the "register" button has disappeared, it means that you have the base game + bonus content registered, otherwise try registering again. You'll get metal scraps after each battle, so if you don't get any, means is not working.
Sorry about the problems, I thought there were much less bugs

I clicked register twice and it loaded that I had scraps then. The only problem is that unless your supposed to ask lucille about scraps when you have a certain amount, I cannot get here to allow me to make them. She doesn't allow me the question/response to ask about making items. Although she does have the deluxe version under questions. Does she only allow you to make items when you have 400 scraps or a set number? Sorry for bothering I just am exited to make some new pistols.

No they use the same variable so should work, but maybe if there's a particular active quest is hidden... can you post a screenshot of the choices you have when you go to Lucille ?
Probably I could just allow the player to click a button in the inventory to access the screen even if would be less realistic but... or maybe add the option also in the barracks location...

if i buy the deluxe version, willi lose my achiviements?

I tried to print screen but it won't work. All their dialog says is-

1-Nothing Ill be on my way

2-Any news about the alien colonies

3-Can you refresh my memory on academy training?

That is from after I click to talk to lucille. When I just get there before I have a choice to talk to lucille-

1-leave place

2-Consult enemy databases

3-Talk to lucille

4-Talk to jacob.

That is all I have and I already registered from the main menu. Do you first get this when you finish the quest for the holodisk? I finished that quest but I don't know what to make of it.

Well yes but you could copy them manually if you know how to do it (is a file to copy from a directory to another).
Actually the old savegames are compatible, the main reason why I changed the directory was that the load/save screen new design use smaller thumbnails so it gets all messed up, but maybe I could find a way to shrink them... going to make some tests!

No you should get it already... Ok wait, will do another update and put the option also in the barracks just to be sure!

No you were right, I forgot that later in the game the dialog changes!
New version 1.5.2:

About the achievements, you can copy the files from the old savegame directory to the new one and they'll be preserved. Copy the files from:
c:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\Appdata\Roaming\RenPy\Planet_Stronghold
to
c:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\Appdata\Roaming\RenPy\Planet_Stronghold_1.5

I've noticed that the new save menu lists 8 pages, but you can scroll past that. I put a save in #185, and it seems to work. I'm not sure if that's intended behavior, but it strikes me as odd; I would think that the page numbers would scroll or update themselves to allow users to more easily access all the slots. (I do think the new menu is nicer than the old one, and I do appreciate having more slots.)

Ah that's the standard behavior of the framework I'm using, but indeed it should update the numbers... will check if I can do it myself

Hey Jack, I received an error in the Deluxe Version

This error occurs after the tutorial in the science facility when talking to Lucille. After completing the first fight, I return to the science facility and ask Lucille about using metal scraps.

She replies with her normal dialogue, but then I receive another set of dialogue, stating "11". Just the number "11", followed by the error below.

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

Hopefully its just an error with something on my end. Thank you for your time : )

Ok by mistake I built the .exe with the latest build of the framework I'm using which is not compatible with this game. I've reuploaded a fixed version, please try downloading this one and will work (savegames are compatible):
http://www.macgames.biz/games/PlanetStr ... -1.5.2.exe
(of course I'm also updating the download links from the main site). thanks for your feedback was useful!
