Hence the new version that corrects the problem he reported and introduces optimizations in downloading creators from IMDB. By the way, a small update of the set with the developers you submitted.

Version 0.8.6 IE fixes and a few new arrivals

The main reason for the emergence of this version was correction of error reported by the user Maciekw7, regarding the lack of information about the awards won by the film in the savegame. However, it turned out that in addition to this important correction, I was able to include a few new, slightly smaller, but quite useful features.

Here are the most important ones:

Cult characters

Just as there is a new version of the game, and I think the other interesting features. One of the following ideas that appeared are called. the cult of heroes.

What it is?

It often happens that the character played by the actor in a particular film is distinctive enough that when you create your film (e.g. the equivalent) do you think carefully about this role.

Hence the idea to the actor that plays the roles had photo clearly indicating at what's going on. This means that the actor in addition to the standard 5 images assigned to their age will be able to have additional photos of such a cult hero.

Refreshing the parameters of creators

Jakiś czas temu skontaktował się ze mną Kacper (MrWeista), jeden z graczy Biznesu Filmowego, z sugestią, że parametry wielu twórców wydają się być nieaktualne. Musiałem mu przyznać rację, gdyż wielu z nich było dodanych 10 (a nawet więcej) lat temu. A przez ten okres dużo się zmieniło zarówno w świecie filmu jak i w algorytmach oraz założeniach gry. Co ważne Karol nie tylko zauważył problem, ale również zaproponował konkretną pomoc w weryfikacji tych parametrów.

Art market and selling of paintings

For a long time in the Film Business 2 it is possible to purchase works of art in the form of paintings. exactly... purchase, nothing more can be done with them. The new version will eventually allow you to fully invest in this market.

First, the paintings will be available for sale. Secondly, image prices will vary depending on several factors. These will m.in: events, the frequency of a given type of image (from a given style/specific author) at auctions, as well as market reactions to the actions of the connoisseur of Vico art.

Profits (or losses) will not be too large, but investing in works of art is intended to protect capital, especially against random events (which operate on the percentage of cash held by the player). Of course, you can not forget about the trophies associated with this element of the game.

It's all version 0.8.5

New game mode

Another novelty planned in the upcoming version of the Film Business is the new game mode. I admit that I did not plan to add more modes because It seemed to me that the current number of them is sufficient and provides a wide range of gameplay variants. After discussions with the players, however, it turned out that they had a slightly different point of view and wanted to play more stress-free at times.

So here are the assumptions of the new mode, which has been Quick game.

About mobile applications

From time to time appear questions on the possibility of the emergence of the mobile version of the movie Business, along with the argument that such an application is that you can earn coconuts ... Well, I recommend you refer to the text Tomasz Zielinski the author of the popular (and useful) applications Transportoid posted on a very interesting blog wonderland-engineering. It describes the reality looks like from the typist mobile apps.
