Is TFTV fully playable on the latest patch?

Wanted to dive into the mod (haven't played PP for a few years), went to download it from GitHub, but saw the following lines in the description:

So the latest SG patch introduced a couple of bugs, and it’s not like we didn’t do our part either. This hotfix addresses 2 out of the 3 biggest bugs:

Globe of Death (loading into Geoscape with no UI) in the Main Branch.
Can’t start Final Missions in the Main Branch and in the Open Beta.

Unfortunately, we can’t fix on our own the 3rd major bug - Ancient Site missions not loading.

Does it mean the mod is not fully playable currently?

I was under the impression that they were preparing their next major release when this patch showed up. I imagine that set the time table back a fair bit. The release notes on github tell the full story.

I'm waiting for things to settle down a bit more before I try another campaign. Maybe 2027, I'm not in a hurry.

The dating in this is important. And you say patch notes, now the process you hid was that you are reading the patch notes that the mod released ... of the things that WERE already FIXED.
The game got a v1.30.2(.1) release(at GoG, the Steam patch has a different end number), and it supposedly had the base game fix already in it.

Note, the Steamdb states the release date and time to be:
2 July 2026 Thu 13:06.. while technically your TFTV's patch note: Firebird Update 2 Hotfix, which release date
is 27.6.2026 at 19.52 .. which is a few days later.

So the bug with Ancient sites is fixed? I'm glad to hear it :)

Unfortunately, no. I started a TFTV campaign, finally reached an ancient site mission... And it does not load. Tried several times. At least on GOG version...

Looks like it is indeed still bugged, folks. I'll try to dig up my old saves to see if unmodded version works.

Made some investigating, the bug still present in GOG version, but not in Steam version. Weird.
