About the crashes you get : In a modern operating system (like windows or Linux, if you didn't know what it means), a standard program cannot accidentally reboot the computer. What can is either a hardware failure, a system bug (quite rare on most configurations) and driver crash. So if you have those and you didn't do it yet, my advice is to update all your drivers, especially the video drivers and the sound drivers (as you get sound bugs). Moreover, ATI is a specialist of half teste

I think the problem you're speaking about is the "click" bug, where the tile where you click is not the one the game think you clicked... I suggest you try to move the camera around and try a number of times, and try to click around the escape square before to give up. This problem evolved over the versions and the tactical battles are the place from where the problem appear the least, and the escape is the main click problem in this mode. It appears a lot in the main view, espec

About the journeyman boots... I suppose you are speaking about the journeyman cloak (as I know only about traveler's boots). I reported this here , and was given a workaround. I didn't try it yet, though, as it seem you need to start a new game before it is taken in account. Defending towers seems a good idea to me, and you're right, the current way is a little too much abstract: If you can understand its effects inte

Thanks for the workaround. It seems like the current games are not changed by the correction, I suppose it is normal... The game took two minutes to load after I did it, too. There was a buzy "datazip.exe" process that let me guess why... Too bad it is neither multithreaded nor incremental... I will test it when I start a new game, I guess...

This is a very simple, and very old one: one minute to find the line, and five seconds to fix it; in the shop, select the inventory, and click the "next champion" button: the inventory shown is still the one of first champion.

One of my settlements was invaded by a bandits just the turn the town finished building. I was still proposed if I wanted to give new orders. Out of curiousity, I accepted, and I could probably have built something if I had clicked... But I chose not to risk a CTD.

The game is much, much better with the 1.1, good job. But there are still things that could be change for very little cost and have a big impact on the enjoyment...

I forgot to say, about the AI: Don't make it like galciv 2 in the area of warfare: all you had to do was ignore the others factions while researching whatever strengthen your research and economy, and once far ahead, research warfare and crush them... As a global rule in any strategic game, building an army and not using it quickly is a waste of resources... And also, I'm waiting for potions and scrolls crafting : you should never see any fantasy world without these...

Well, for good or ill, I'm feeling inspired, today... A small bug report to begin with: it seems that, like a lot of other games, Elemental don't read the saved games directory path from registry, and instead use a fixed "My Games" directory in the document folder. This makes two of these folders in some non English version of windows, or when its path is customised. Next, a big thank for your frankness and honesty. You don't see this every day... Or year. Or ever, in fact: I

[quote who="Tryptophan" reply="76" id="2754100"] My first real gripe is: I would like to know if there is a way to specifically choose from the research screen so that you know without doubt WHICH selection you have really made?

I don't know how it could be done, but I suppose it is one that should be thought abou

I'm quite amazed of some of the big bugs not being talked about anywhere. Am I the only one having them? Here they are: Mouse over don't work : when I the mouse passes over something, I'd like the card on the bottom right to actually represent the thing it's over. In particular when I'm choosing the unit I want to train, on when I'm wondering if I should attack a pack of monsters Black portraits<

It seem to happen a lot to ATI cards users... Like me. But this one is only annoying. Not like the one, that may be related, that changes the click point to make it 50 pixel under the mouse pointer. It forces me to exit the program and restart it. It happens after between 1 minute and half an hour of game... Do any of you have this problem too?

nitey47 : [e digicons]k1[/e] but about the channeller champions. natural abilities for champion seems to be a very good idea to compensate; I would add, as I said before (lost somewhere in the forum) that champions should not have only one point to level, but at least 3. That, or the stats should go up automatically depending on the champ class, and that one point is the one you choose to place. The prices are definitely needing to go down the ones of regular soldier,

I have seen in the support section that people speak about that version. I also have seen that I was updated to 1.05 twice, but the displayed version is still 1.05, and the executable file too. No new update is proposed. So, where does this "16" come from?

When that happens, the price will be well worth it.[/quote] ++ It will be nice, when we get the real release version... But until then, the game is barely playable many computers, and even unplayable on some. You, Frogboy have something than nearly all other game developers lack: real passion.

I have a party of 3 wandering pack drakes on my map. When I click anywhere on the surrounding tiles, for whatever reason (selection or order) they are seen my the game as the target, unless for maybe a quarter of the furthest part of them, if I search for it. So I found myself accidentally attacking them, or having difficulties to select a unit on the tile next to it (that nowhere near powerful enough to take it out). It's the only time I got such a problem, the other creatures I found don't

I tweak the file of my sovereign to add the life spellbook. It now appears in the least of sovereigns, but it gives no new spells, at least at level 1... Searching for the code corresponding to this spellbook, I found that the spells are there. It makes it a very minor graphical bug... Supposing the spells you get depend on the sovereign's race or faction you choose. What if I wanted the death spellbook? Well, I don't, but...
