Seriously, I like this game, but it's even less stable than when I played it when it first came out. Seems like it adds just as much bugs as it solved. The game crashes even more than before. And then there's all sorts of glitches with units. So they changed it so that the min units is a squad of 4. But why then is it showing up as 1 unit half the time when I want to build? Then there's the headless naked torso bug, where halfway the game my units appears

I've had this once as well. And another time, one of the sovereigns didn't found a town and apparently died fighting some random mob.
[quote who="SwerydAss" reply="7" id="2782308"] I still have 10.6 drivers since the newest drivers seemed to really screw up another game for me. I am doing the same since the aug 26 drivers screw up starcraft 2 and a couple other games.... I hope stardock isnt testing with these(aug 26) drivers since they need to be fixed.[/quote] I was talking about SC2 as well actually :p
And if you revert to the normal version, delete your mods as well and start a new game. I had to even delete all my old savegames and sovereigns in order for it to work again
I love Starcraft 2, though haven't played much since I got Elemental. I've never enjoyed multiplayer against random people that much though, and since I only know 2 people IRL that have SC2, I don't play alot of multi. I hate losing against random people who win simply because they rush better than me. I do enjoy a regular coop though, but that gets boring since the pc does the pretty much the same thing every time. The campaign is pretty good as well, and if you add the achievements, i
Yea, I had this silly game yesterday. Playing on hard, large map and 8 opponents. Kraxxis was my strongest neighbour and was at war with Pariden, who was alot weaker looking at the kingdom reports. Then out of the blue, the whole of Kraxxis was gone suddenly, because of some silly suicide run of the sovereign. That was kind of a let down.
Explore faster I'd say, you should atleast find your closest neighbours fairly fast. And then keep an eye on them. If you start getting negative multiplier, spam some squads of axe/shield men (or spearmen if you don't have metal) untill you are neutral again. Making units without armor doesn't cost that much and it does the trick till you can afford some more expensive units. the key is to start soon enough, before they are hostile to you. Or if you are too late, you shouldn't have to
Hmm I have 1.08.037 so I'm clueless why it wouldn't work now
Vista 64, HD58xx card. I don't seem to have the more than in earlier versions though. It does get worse the later in the game though. I can usually go quite a while before crashing. But once the crashing starts, it doesn't matter how much I restart the game, the crashing becomes more frequent. I still have 10.6 drivers since the newest drivers seemed to really screw up another game for me.
If you open the shop screen with a hero that can wear them, and cycle through your heroes, you can buy them with other heroes/sovereign that can't use them. If you have you sovereign selected and then open the shop screen, they shouldn't show up.
Ok, first of all don't give me the "they hotfixed it", I heard it already and knew before even having to hear it. Anyway, 2 uninstalls later my archers still don't hit anything. The first time I uninstalled I uninstalled from within Impulse then reinstalled with the "show pre-release versions" off. For some reason I ended up with V1,08b. I'm assuming that is the beta? I played the game and archers didn't work, made a post and people responded with simply the obvious things I a
Why is it that an AI requests me to go to war against an empire they themselves have not met? They shouldn't even know they exist as I'm blocking them from eachother. And why don't they shut up after I told them no 15 times? They are starting to feel like spam popups.
[quote who="econundrum1" reply="1" id="2780776"]The problem is like me you have the beta of the multiplayer (because like me you keep beta versions switched on in preferences). There where two hotfixes for the non-beta single player only game the second on fixed archers. But only the first one was released for the beta which included mutliplayer. They said Monday for the second one, haven't seen it yet but who knows maybe later. [/quote] But
Didn't they hotfix the archers yesterday? Cause I'm still hitting squat. I even uninstalled the game to get rid of the multiplayer beta and reinstalled/updated without showing pre-release versions. It says I have this version v1.08b hotfix. Or could it be that I'm still playing a game I started when I still had the multiplayer beta installed?
Got mine last week
He might, but I find enemy sovereign's always have pretty good armor fairly early while they are apparently always researching adventuring first. Weird. They have money to buy those armor + spamming cities and armies like there's no tomorrow
I never have autoexploring units. Already posted in another topic with the same problem. https://forums.elementalgame.com/397134
I had that in my last game as well. My sovereign had 26 battle points at the start of each battle after I used it in a fight before. So that kinda made him invincible. I could cast deflect on him and run upto any mob and kill it in the first round :p
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11801197/stuck.EleSav This save is stuck already http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11801197/last.EleSav Here the game isn't stuck yet, but whatever I do the game becomes stuck after a few turns. it also crashed a few time when I entered Kraxxis Oh and I'm using the old armor mod btw, dunnow if that makes any difference I'm like 530 turns
You had nothing by the time you had 2 grown children? That's hardly a rush :p Anyway, my current game is on a large map (on hard, normal pacing). I ended up with only 1 neighbour, an Empire (I'm was plaing as Tarth). As usual in the 1,08, they started sending threaths, I paid the first one but knew it wouldn't last long so started building a few squads and manned my closest cities. And sure enough they started suiciding their armies against those. Eventhough their armies shoul
Perhaps it has already been suggested, but here's my 2 pennies anyway. So, my idea was that you have to have a certain population before expanding. Lets say 50 or so. And with each new town it scales up a bit so you won't get a snowball effect after you have a few cities. So in this example 125 or so to make your third city.
[quote who="kryo" reply="6" id="2777384"] When a screen pops up (like the quest screen), the text on the main screen is visible beneath the quest screenGone are all the spell, quest, Elementopedia, etc. art If you're having screen/UI issues, try deleting everything from C:\ProgramData\Stardock\Elemental - War of Magic\Screens (C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Stardock\Elemental - War of Magic\Screens on Windows XP).[/quote] So far I've only
Not certain, but I think the hut offers the same quest as one you are already on. I seem to get that now and then as well. And when I finish that certain quest, both Odd Huts disappear. Thats why I thought they don't always respond anyway :p I could be wrong and it might be a bug afterall
Weird, in the first game I stared I could recruit most of the heroes. I started a new game though and can't recruit anyone anymore either
I started a new game, and not very long after it started (15-20 turns maybe) I met a hero called Inaey who had the picture of a baby, had 6 essence and also 4 mana regen. I've met the hero called Inaey in a few games already and she always looked the same. How could this possibly happen?
