Where are you all finding the xml files to edit?

Can someone tell me how to mod in more settling locations please. I'm tired of hitting CTRL N for 45 minutes. Thanks in advance.

I love Steam, been using it since beta days shortly after HL 1 came out. Never had an issue, never had it crash, never had any problems with it messing up my games. I guess some people know how to use software and some people....don't. It is funny watching my mom use email once in awhile, she might have a hard time with steam.

Windows 8.... hmmmm not really sure.... In win 7, you have to regedit to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Valve\Steam\Apps\228260 and change VCRedist to 1 See if you have a DWORD of VCRedist? Usually, we have to change that data value to 1. *BUT* I have no idea if this works in WIN 8, and I do NOT have VCRedist listed in my registry for this app. I'm going to guesstimate that is has something to do with installing on 8 and it not cleaning up after itself.

Thank you kindly!

I searched... I googled... I checked the modding sticky.... I looked through the mod tools in game....I looked through the dev journal.... nothing. Where are the xml files, after I edit them, where do they go?

I love spears, they are fun, please do not change them. Please do change the swing around and decapitate animation though, that drives me nuts. An upswing impale would be so much better.

Or when you want to queue city production and research window pops up. You right clink on a enemy army to start a battle and a bandit dialog pops up from across the map dragging your attention to it. Or you are trying to save the game but the research window opened up in the background and you can't do anything.

Win!

I started a discussion on this two days ago, I should have titled it better: https://forums.elementalgame.com/442239 I also am finding the tiles/settling areas to be quite worthless, and I even resorted to playing on dense. Even on that setting, the areas are pretty much crap. It is far and few where I will get luck after 100+ ctrl Ns and an occasional ctrl U that I find something decent. I got tired of investing a few hours explor

I agree with you Gandalftheredskin, I also like to have 3-4 core cities and build them up. They seem to have 3 of the 4x covered.

Would you like some crumpets with that tea?

I had no idea the spell worked this way!! It never gave me anything settle-able so I thought it was just a way to get a lumber yard near a settlement.

I don't understand, what is wrong with city spamming? Isn't that the point of the game: to build up an empire? Expand? Conquest or quest? Unrest is now limiting expansion, take a line from Endless Space, expand too fast take a hit on population + unrest. Things take longer to build, negative income.... I'm sure Brad can code this into the AI. Had a whole page of long winded babbling here, but I deleted it. I guess what I'm trying to say is that it is not fun. We

I'm still new, only 60 hours into FE and LH. After spending the past two hours trying to start a game with control N, I had to resort to using Ctrl +U to use my actual real life time more efficiently. Weekend time is limited don't want to waste my time by reloading for two hours. I'm playing on a large map as I wanted more excitement but the starting areas, if even remotely useful, the next area to settle is half way across the map. I'd have to kick out 6-8 pioneer

Quick story: I got a champ at 200 fame. I picked one, changed my mind. Went back to autosave and champ was gone, next hero at 400 fame.

[quote who="Alstein" reply="5" id="3336362"] That said, they have serious unrest issues, so they have to pretty much go on a razing spree. [/quote] That's the reason why I don't play them. Sad really as I like the idea of their play style.

I agree with Fallenchar and Azunai_ There is really nothing I can add that they have not already said.

I cannot get burning hands to work, I select the spell, get the blue grid then select enemy, but I get a pop-up that says "Must select enemy". Other +1 range spells work fine.

I had this happen too, before the crash had a brief pop up of "invalid DX call".

Agree with the OP, I'm constantly losing my mage because he/she starts right up front and usually isolated. Wouldn't a fix be to flag mages as ranged?

I love steam, never had a problem and I love having my games with me where ever I go. It's mind numbingly easy to keep games from updating, I do it all the time when not at home. Works great without internet access, never had a skyrim issue and I have easily 25+ mods running. Just gotta figure out the incompatable mod.... Thank you for releasing this on steam!! And thanks for the beta!!

Newbie question here, how do we get to test the beta when available? Can we pre-order? My FE is registered, is that the email you all are talking about?

I'm having the same problem as the OP. I have 4gigs on my videocard (680FTW) and I have 16 gigs DDR3 on my system. Any fix yet?
