Hello all!

We have finally released Deus Ex: Revision Demo 1.3.1! The release is mainly a bugfix release, but it also features some improvements to previous maps. Mainly the Liberty Island, Battery Park and Smuggler's place. Later maps like Paris are not included, neither is any soundtrack material.

Hope you will enjoy it. Feedback is always welcome!

Excellent news! I no longer need to cheat to get a baton on Liberty Island!

While I'm looking forward to playing the full version of Revision later this year, I hope that later parts of the game won't be as rushed as the original.

I love this mod so much.

Nice! Thank you!

Are you going to play demo 1.3.1 or are you waiting for the full version?

Awesome. Paris looks beautiful. Ocean Lab, Sub Base & Ocean Lab UC are my most anticipated revised maps.

Yeah, we are saving the best for last. Paris is almost done, except for some minor tweaking and Ocean Lab is currently being worked on.

Well I'm playing 1.3.1. With hindsight, what Liberty Island has always needed was more trees, rain and darkness. It's far more atmospheric. I can't wait to see what you are doing with the Ocean Lab.

Excellent mod! another looking point on vanilla DX

I needed to grenade climb my way out of the tree triangle in battery park. But more trees is always good.

Why did you go in there in the first place?

Hello there, i am really excited about the new 1.3.1 and want to play it RIGHT AWAY, but unfortunately i think that there is a problem with saving crashing the game. I've turned off every mod and uninstalled HDTP, but i think the reason is either with shifter OR with Revision doing something. My mods are: Direct10, Shifter 1.9, NewVision, HDTP Latest. I would be glad if there would be any help for me. Thanks!

To see what was there! I won't be doing it a second time.

Hmm. Do you get any error messages? After a crash before you launch the game again, please find Revision.log and send it to me. It's either in DeusEx\System or in My Documents\Deus Ex.

Just so you know the game hasn't been tested with Shifter 1.9, since 1.9 wasn't even out when we released. However, it should still work fine both with or without the Shifter compatibility option.

I am using Kentie's exe. When i looked for the log file i was unable to find it. However when i started purely Revision exe, it generated a log file. Can i use modified exe to load the mod or i have to load Deus Ex through revision and replace existing files. Not sure if HDTP will work. I can try though if it is required.

However as i looked into the logs i saw that they are similar. I will post the DeusEx.log here:

That log file tells me nothing, since the log is overwritten whenever you launch the game. I need a log from the actual crash before you relaunch.

Also, how are you launching the mod now? You should use one of the Revision shortcuts to launch. You can now use any of the .exes' directly since that won't tell the game it should use our .ini files to load Revision content. You don't have to replace any content. The installer will install Revision into a separate directory, the only thing that will get overwritten would be any renderers you choose. However that shouldn't really be a problem.

You are having issues getting HDTP to work? Make sure it's installed correctly and then copy over the HDTP paths from HDTP.ini to Revision.ini that's in DeusEx\Revision\System.
