Jungle Explorers [Free DLC]

[PiraatTippie]

Hello Lego fans,

I can be wrong but was it not normal for Dino Transport Cage to come into game yesterday ??
I do not own him yet and do not see him either !!

I have also read this:


FREE CONTENT RELEASE DATES
- Jungle Camp – August 3rd
- Jungle Temple Ruin – August 10th
- Dino Transport Cage – August 17th
- Dino Discovery Site – August 24th

So where is it then?

Grt,
Supertippie

The camp came late, I'd wait another day or two for this one. Or, if you have one placed in a world from earlier versions, copy it and save. = )

Well, today is August 21st and Dino Transport Cage still not in menu - is it problem with steam update or is se late in general?

The showcase builds are updated from outside the Steam infrastructure, it's a separate system.

I'm going with hectic gamescom preperations as the reason for it being late.

There has also been a build in the holding point for public release for 10 days without it going live, I don't recall that happening before, I figure a complication was spotted and there hasn't been time to correct it yet. Unfortunate because last patch did introduce new problems and quite critical ones for some players.

As of late night 8/22, still only the camp and temple ruins here, even though there was a Steam update in the last day or so.

Note that there appears to be an occasional or initial bug with the temple ruin; the first time I placed it, the discoverable items on the smaller platform were missing; specifically "Jungle Plane Wreckage" and "Jungle Idol 2". After exiting and coming back in, then placing another copy, they were present and available to scan and unlock.

Note that "Jungle Idol 1" seems to be an infinite source of red gems once memorized. The super money chest, like the one in the camp, is one use per save however.

This bug I observe wheneve I placing set without mixing option (I have czech localization and I dont know how is this option called in english, but do terrain optimalization for model when activeted but in same time practicly disable possibility of connecting set, so I cancel this option most time).

I was looking forward to having all the new models tomorrow, but it appears we'll have to wait for who knows how long to get them.

Well, i find some clue in another discussion:

The reason it's not showing up is because there is a typo in the latest DASHBOARD79.XML

Line 40
<file name="EVILKAGE_WITHPROPS">EVILKAGE_WITHPROPS.SAV</file>
should be
<file name="EVILKAGE_WITHPROPS.SAV">EVILKAGE_WITHPROPS.SAV</file>

If you like you can fix this yourself or wait until they push a new list.

Obviously the Series 8 Evil Robot is not part of the Jungle series, I think what happened is that this one was mixed up with the Dino Transport Cage. Evil Robot looks like it was intended to be part of the Monster Pack launch in the same trend as the Mineral Detector and Scooter for Classic Space.

It's been like that for a week now and today we should be getting the fourth Jungle showcase Build but let's keep in mind that in 2 weeks LEGO Worlds releases on Nintendo Switch. Making sure that has a smooth launch takes priority over some Brick Builds you know :P

I have no problem if smal DLC is late because priority of port and paid DLC, but before developers say something, or published new dat... But now they are silent, bud counters still counting countdown:-)

Developers develop, they occasionally also communicate with the community but this should be seen as a supplementary bonus because it's not part of their regular job duties while it does take time away from it, and therefore we shouldn't hold expectations that they will respond whenever a problem pops up.

That's the job of public relations and support.

Unfortunately they don't really know much on their own, they primarily function as a bridge between developers and players so when developers are incredibly busy they won't have the time to explain other staff what went wrong until they have a solution ready. On top of that Gamescom is going on.

So it may look like they are silent it's more like they are busy doing a whole lot of talking elsewhere.

But the jungle explorers builds are accesable till september

I believe the devs are aware that the current Showcase download library mechanism is not great. Apparently it sucks up so much server bandwidth that they have to delete older models or everything slows down terribly. They did say they are working on coming up with a better store to download builds from, including older builds you've missed.

They could just enable Steam Workshop and stick everything on there. This is the biggest flaw with Lego Worlds, adding SW would catapult this game into the big leagues I'm sure. No game needs this more, LW is the type of game that would benefit most from this mechanism.
