I noticed that too. Arcane weapons seems to stick around a good long time, but it eventually went away. I cast it again, and judging from the fact that my attack value increased, it seems to have worked, but the enchantments window didn't show it (it did show the arcane defense spell that was still active).

Immediately after founding my first city, and getting the tutorial welcome from (I think) Janusk, I got the diplomacy dialog from one of the AI opponents greeting and warning me. I'm now at this point, with Janusk in view but no sign of any opponent: If I click on Janusk to try to hire him, I get the diplomacy window with an AI opponent, as if, perhaps, Janusk was already hired by the AI? But

I founded my first city, set it to build some improvements, then set a destination 2 tiles away for my sovereign to attack a spider drone. The tutorial character popped up right next to a big spider, and the game crashed. I'm wondering if it happened when the spider attacked the tutorial character. dump file is here.

My sovereign found a pair of patchwork greaves, so I went to the items menu and double clicked on them to equip them. The icon changed to show that they were equipped, and I could see that his defense had increased, but before I could do anything else the game crashed. dump file is here. debug.err is here.

[quote]How do you share multiple debugs from dropbox it doesnt want to give me more links?[/quote] Are you renaming the file to something other than debug.err before moving it to your dropbox public folder? I usually rename my debug.errs to debug+date+time.err.

I'm using an external monitor on my laptop. I had the laptop open, so both the laptop monitor and the external monitor were showing the same Elemental window (playing Elemental windowed, but at max resolution). I closed the lid of my laptop (action defined to Win7 on closing the lid: do nothing), turned away from my desk, and when I looked back I saw this: No dump file was produced, but the de

A spider drone appeared close to my city. I moved my sovereign to attack it, but when it reached the tile where the spider was pictured, nothing happened. I happened to move the cursor over another tile nearby, and the info card for the spider appeared. So while it was pictured at the location where my sovereign is (it's hard to see in the screen shot, but there's actually a very small spider at his feet), the spider is actually where I've indicated in the screen shot:

[quote]I even uninstalled and reinstalled the whole game to be sure there were no corrupt files or anything like that.[/quote] When moving from one beta to another, I uninstall Elemental, then also delete the "\Documents\My Games\Elemental" and "\Program Data\Stardock\Elemental - War of Magic" directories that the uninstall doesn't remove. Then I reinstall. I'm not saying that this will fix your problem, just that it's been recommended as a good practice to follow when p

Thanks for the tip, but even with the cloth map only option checked, when I load this saved game the music starts, and then the game hangs. Task manager shows Elemental using 100% of one of the processor cores (i.e. 13% of an 8 core processor), and I either have to kill it with task manager, or click a couple of times on it and get Windows to tell me it's not responding and do I want to cancel it.

I had declared war on Capitar, and taken one of their towns. One of their hired heroes was one tile away from counterattacking the town I'd taken, which was defended by my sovereign, a hired hero, and a pioneer. When I hit the space bar to go to the next turn, expecting the enemy hero to attack, the game crashed. dump file is here. <a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5003976/debug

For the first time I was able to get far enough into a game to build a frigate. I moved a pioneer on board it, and moved down the shoreline a bit: Note that the frigate is selected and shows the pioneer on board. When I select the pioneer and try to move him ashore, he shows up (sort of) back at the point where he boarded the frigate, and cannot be moved: <img src="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/50

I got to turn 185 and crashed when I hit the space bar for the next turn. This was not an out of memory crash (was that fixed? If so hurray!).

I built a garden in my capital. When zoomed in to the 3D map it doesn't show: but when zooming out to the cloth map it shows momentarily, but then fades out and is no longer visible. I managed to capture a screen shot before it faded out: I know it's really there because it's giving me food.

[quote]Any chance you could send us a saved game?[/quote] I have posted at least a half a dozen dumps for this problem in other threads (there are a lot of them), but I'm not sure what good a saved game will do. I play for 40 moves, crash, reload from the last saved game, play for 40 more moves (approximately) crash, repeat. Anyway, here's my last saved game , from .804. The debug.err and dump

[quote]I assume we can't contact Tech Support for beta issues. So, short of a mod/dev posting in your thread, how do you know if your issue was noted/reported? Should I just wait for the next build and hope I can launch the game then?[/quote] Kryo regularly compiles a list of open issues and posts it here: http://elemental.kryofx.com/
