August 2017 Patroncast Submissions

 Hello!

It's time for me to put together this month's Patroncast (what with it being September in most of the world's timezones and all).

Just in case you're new,  this is where you get ask questions, suggest topics, or provide links to reference materials that support your preferred pronunciation of 'coyote', and they all end up in a big Podcast.

And as I mentioned last mo...

Patroncast - July 2017 (That's Better)

Hello!

The Patroncast is here! A small correction - in the Patroncast itself, we do talk as if you'd be able to listen to it via Patreon's player like last month. That isn't the case, as the file turned out to be bigger than Patreon allows, but we still have plenty of ways to listen, as always.

Naturally, you can also watch the unlisted YouTube video - 2017-08-06 18:09:03 +0000 UTC View Post

July 2017 Patroncast Submissions

The Patreon RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 Livestream - Final Details

And so we're almost ready for the Absolutely-Going-To-Run-Perfectly-Smoothly RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 Patreon Livestream, and that means I have important last minute notes.

Firstly, we had a few people whose Discord username and # we couldn't find, and without that, we can't give you access to the Rolercoaster Tycoon 2 voicechat on Discord so you can chat to all your fellow builders - if you haven...

The Patreon RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 Community Playday Livestream!

So, this coming Saturday, we'll be livestreaming RollerCoaster Tycoon 2. Except that wasn't ludicrously ambitious enough, so I'm going to turn it into a big Patreon multiplayer playday too, and we can all build a park together, live.

You may currently be confused, as RCT2 doesn't have multiplayer. Fortunately, it now does thanks to the Open RCT2 Project mod, which you can download from 2017-07-25 22:40:54 +0000 UTC View Post

Hello!

The Patroncast is coming later this weekend, but first I have some extra free keys for Dawn of War III's Closed Beta, which is happening this weekend and ends late Monday - there's also an Open Beta in a couple of weeks, but I thought some folks might enjoy playing it early :)

Patroncast - February 2017

Hi all!

Welcome to the February 2017 Patroncast, which is late - even by my standards - because I wanted to talk about the response to the new Fallout 4 series, and because it's easily the longest ever Patroncast, so hopefully it was worth the wait :)

The Many A True Nerd Patreon FAQ

Hello all!

In order to try to avoid either repeating answers, or leaving newer Patrons feeling ignored, here is the MATN Patreon FAQ, which I'll be linking to in all future Submission Threads, which should hopefully help with that sort of thing :)
