Hmm, so it means new content will be published ;-)

That would be nice, you can just never have to worry about using full save names, and just play dungeon 5, quick save, try out dungeon 10, quick save, go back and play dungeon 5 some more, loading ITS quicksave, etc
Exactly... I think that'd make saves well organized.

I have a bug since 1.2.9: when closing the game or the editor, Steam thinks it's still running. Thus I can't restart the game nor close Steam (it says please close LoG first).

If you opened a web browser through the help menu, Steam still thinks Grimrock is running, probably because it's part of the same process tree. That may be what you're running into.

I didn't start any browser or open any webpage through Steam or Grimrock (my browser is running all the time anyway).
Also the bug is reproducable by just starting Steam (remember I had to close it through Task Manager), then instantly starting Grimrock and exiting right there.

Ok, I don't know what exactly it was, but restarting my laptop fixed it. :)

Well, no new bugs to report by me as I have the GOG version, but according to the changelogs I found (1.2.7, 1.2.8, and 1.2.9) several old bugs from 1.1.4 seems to be not fixed up to now.

The 1.1.4 bug backlog/thread is here: PSY's 1.1.4 bug thread (pretty deep hidden in the support forum thread list now).

This is amazing, given the awesome quality of the main game. Can't wait to see what you guys make next!

Hello guys,
sorry if my english is not the best: it's not my native...

So, i don't know if this has anything to do with the beta release of the Editor. I am a Steam user, so I am able to use the Editor. Shortly after the release of Grimrock, I completed the game two times. I also got the achievment "Buddies with Toorum" and was able to play as Toorum following this guide: http://www.gamebanshee.com/legendofgrim ... ummode.php

This is now a while ago and the game wasn't on my computer for quite some time. I reinstalled it (with the Beta Editor) and wanted to complete the game in oldschool mode with Toorum. Sadly I am not able, to get in Toorum Mode... As I said, i don't know if it has anything to do with the beta...

Any ideas?
