When releasing the Pre-release software last weekend, I warned that the software was incomplete and there were known issues I was going to fix. Let me clear up any confusion by listing each and every one of them.
* Music cues. I know they're in the wrong order. Because there are four cues instead of three, I have to totally rework this. They will be in order. First will be the fiddle cue, then the harmonica, then the fiddle cue that starts with the 9th measure, then the harmonica cue that starts with the 9th measure, and then loop back to the fiddle cue.
* Score to win. A problem that existed in the original Family Feud software was the game not allowing a win if you scored the number of points specified in the configuration. I think it probably carried over to the Pre-release.
* Strikes. They are the old ones, the superimposed icons, the sounds, everything. They're getting a total re-do.
* Animations for flip panels. Right now, the animation doesn't match up with the sound. And in Family Feud Challenge, they should flip much faster. I don't know what they did to the board when FFChallenge started but they flip insanely fast.
* Face-off podium lights. They're wrong.
* Fast Money timer. It's wrong. That's what I had just finished when my file blew up.
That's all I know about. I plan on fixing all these things.

There's a couple that you forgot to mention:
*The bells that play when you press 'R' during the question, or when the points are awarded to the team are from the original version.
*The bank scoreboard gets added as soon as you press the 1-0 keys to reveal the answers, instead of waiting a half-second or so.
*The "buzz-buzz-buzz" sound effect that plays when you press Insert during a question shouldn't be there (since the Combs version didn't use the huddle)
*The game-win cue, the "losing family leaving the stage" cue, the Fast Money win cue, and the ending sequence cue are all from the original version.
*The "blip" sound effect that's used to reveal a Fast Money answer isn't there.
I think that's about it.

Also, with both versions... the "win cue" in the main game and in fast money (Combs only) shouldn't have it repeated 3 times, its only two. Combs version played this when fast money was won. The last like 3 phrases of the song then it goes into the main theme... it should only be 2 of those phrases, not 3. This probably makes NO sense hahahaha.... I'll upload an mp3 of what i'm talking about later today.

Not just the panels. One other thing: after revealing the second answer for the first player in Fast Money, the board graphic goes to the original Dawson Feud board. |

This is great. I'll keep all these things in mind when I figure out the best way to restore my file the way it was.

and when you get to the end of fast money on the podium lights they're a bit off meaning the left side wont reach the left hand corner

For most of the Combs' run, the "number boxes," that box beside each flip-answer that had the number of people who gave the response, was black with a white number. Not brown with a peach-like number.
Not sure how much that really matters, though, since technically, earlier episodes still did use the peach-on-brown (standard for Dawson), rather than the "normal" white-on-black, which came to be normal for Combs.

No, sorry to disagree but the numbers showing the survey result are yellow as is the box outline. The fill for the box, however, should be darker. I'll correct that in the official release. Thanks for pointing that out. |
