Beta 9.0 Changelog: Difference between revisions

The changelog was provided out of order, it appears the latter half are the first builds starting in June 3, 1997, and the first half are the later builds ending at July 24, 1997. It can be inferred through this that LEGO Island was in beta for nearly two months, and the [[LEGO_Island_Versions#v1.0_.2F_August_Build|first retail release]] was only about two weeks later (on August 8, 1997).

The changelogs for the early builds contain information on playing/beating the game, as well as preemptive apologies for bugs, ostensibly for testers. The first build's changelog also instructs players to uninstall previous versions of LEGO Island and manually delete registry keys, indicating earlier pre-beta/alpha versions of the game were distributed to testers.

Occasionally, the changelog lists fixes for [[Glitches|bugs that remain in the retail releases]] or [[Compatibility Issues|have re-emerged in newer versions of Windows]] (particularly crashes involving leaving the game). These sections of the game may have been poorly implemented and fixed via hacks or workarounds that later became incompatible with more modern versions of Windows, causing the original bug to re-emerge.
