[quote who="Raven X" reply="13" id="2602535"] Quoting Magicke, reply 7 ty BoogieBac, think I'll be using WinXP for a while still. Think there are still quite a few of us Up until I got Win 7 I was FIRMLY planted in the Win XP court. I hated Vista like it was the plague and avoided it as such. Win 7 is amazing in comparison though. It did take me a little while to get used to the slightly newer configuration and they tended to hid

Here we go. Debug.err: http://pastebin.com/4ef6S6yr Save: http://www.sendspace.com/file/r0uyqf Additional info: I managed to reload this saved game on the third try. So...you lads should try to load this save more times on different machines. The lock-up should be easily reproduced. Successfully reloading a game looks like very random. Sometime it works, sometime it locks

[quote who="BoogieBac" reply="1" id="2602364"]Are these on a fresh run of the game, or when trying to start a new game from within a game? [/quote] Fresh run.

[quote who="BoogieBac" reply="4" id="2602362"]Yup, all ending on "DebugMessage: Updating ZOC." Can i get one of those saved games to test against? Thanks! [/quote] It was an autosave. This is very weird. I managed to load the saved game on the second try. I am going to post a saved game file -which I was unable to reload- next time. Keep watching this topic Boogie, I will save/load games like a madman, so I can post the file in a couple

..and again. I guess 3 reports should be enough for now with regard to the lock-up while trying to load a saved game. Debug.err: http://pastebin.com/LKWHcmAn

Debug.err: http://pastebin.com/LrRmgkbw No dump file was generated since I had to kill .exe after CTRL-ALT-DEL

If you CTD, dump files are always generated. It won't generate any dump files, if you manually kill the .exe after a lock-up for example.

CTDs are generating dump files, you should upload that...it's the most important stuff to upload in this case actually. Here is the beta reporting guide: https://forums.elementalgame.com/364285

Weird, so it's a CTD followed by a lock-up? Haven't seen anything like that so far. [e digicons]:O[/e]

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="10" id="2601782"]I'm almost inclined to go back a different path: 1. Outpost 2. Hamlet 3. Village 4. Town 5. City I am not liking Metropolis either. [/quote] This sounds good. :)

Well...good relations with other factions should matter a lot. [Especially if you would like to trade high tier techs.] Also, if the AI will be decent enough [..and I am pretty sure that it will be decent :)], balancing this won't be very problematic at all imo.

[quote who="BoogieBac" reply="39" id="2601642"] Windows XP sp3This seems to be the most common thread amongst users with the most common crashing. QA has it reproducing, so now it's just a matter of debugging the issue and getting it fixed [/quote] Boogie, I have CTDs on Vista, but you probably read my reports already...as I see, more people are having the same CTD type: Hit the end turn button -> CTD.

[quote who="larienna" reply="56" id="2600457"]Things I would like to see for modding Zero Coding: If mods could be made by simply changing values, that would be great. I understand that this is much more limited than coding, but It could be interesting if you could do many things by only changing values. For example, beign able to create new spells without extra coding would be awesome. Interface for XML File: I remember making a small mod for CIV 3 and an interesting th

..and it happened again. Debug.err: http://pastebin.com/TXU6ivzX

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="15" id="2600867"]We'll worry more about city populations a bit later. I'm thinking this build is solid enough to proceed to beta 2. Been playing it on my home machines and my work machines for hours without problem. I experienced a considerable number of glitches and such (it IS a beta after all) but I think it's definitely solid enough to move forward to the next phase. [/quote] Well, reloading saved games is still problematic

[quote who="MagicwillNZ" reply="29" id="2601306"]The stability has gotten worse for me in the latest build. Last beta I was able to start a new game in the middle of a continuing game, whereas now it just CTD. I'd like to submit a bug report, but I don't know how to point the devs to my Dropbox account. [/quote] I am having CTDs as well, but I think that all of these CTDs are related to 1 specific "bug". The debug.err looks like the same after the crashes.

[quote who="krejci" reply="5" id="2601273"] Quoting Wintersong, reply 4 Just because there is the option, don't forget to actually develop some nice, good and efficient way to have tech trade done. I have never used the option of not tech brokering as, of all the things, that would be one of the few "inmersion breakers" for me. Would be like if I were to disable diplomacy.. or combat... So give the option but let's try to have a good tech brokering syste

Township and Grand City? Sounds weird imo...[e digicons]o_O[/e]

I've started a new game...and yet another CTD after ending my turn. [I am no expert, but it looks like that 1 specific stuff might be causing this CTD..at least the error reports are similar in the debug files.] Debug.err: http://pastebin.com/s6RQPywL Dump: http://www.sendspace.com/file/qhr1i7

Argh, it looks like that the save/load system is still bugged. I had to kill the game after CTRL-ALT-DEL when I've tried to load a saved game. Debug.err: http://pastebin.com/mEL5E9Aq

Oh damn, CTD after 5 mins of playing with .302 [e digicons]:S[/e]

Damn....the first CTD in .302 after 5 mins of playing, and I had no CTDs in 0.3 [e digicons]:S[/e] Debug.err: http://pastebin.com/ChQ97KEm Dump: http://www.sendspace.com/file/ozf4br

Boogie has said that the "item shop" has been implemented already in their internal build. IE. You can buy equipments for gold. :)

Nice, going to test the new build. Let's see the stability! [e digicons]:)[/e]

[quote who="leeboy26" reply="4" id="2600842"]Elemental, my dear Magicke. I think it's a Middle-Earth classification type thing. [/quote] What? While we are at it, I always loved Tolkien's naming of places/creatures/people. Thangorodorim, Isengard, Udun, Gorgoroth, Barad-dur etc. Simply epic. [e digicons]:smitten:[/e]
