[quote who="seanw3" reply="3" id="3234502"]I play the game in windowed mode and watch TV while I play. Never had a problem running itunes, hulu, and FE all at the same time.[/quote] Yes, but you also sacrifice small animals to Bill Gates, and have created an Evil Midget World-Conquering Mite tribe. I need hardly add that this grants you special powers. [quote]OK, so whatever it is, it's not a general issue but appears to be specific to my system.

I can run FE and ALT+TAB to the main screen in WinXP. It's not a good idea to do with anything so RAM-intensive, but I can do it without problems.

[quote who="Gaunathor" reply="6" id="3234458"] The only way for the player to get Coal Stones is the Staff of Furnance, as far as I know, and like I sayed before, you can't expect to find it each game.[/quote] I found the staff of furnace after a battle with with a group of air shrills, and the damage it's been doing is completely out of line with that you describe. So it would appear to be bugged. Remains to be seen how well it works when it&#3

[quote who="Gaunathor" reply="1" id="3234341"]A casting time of one or two turns is the only thing needed. The spell is otherwise fine as it is.[/quote] With respect, if my party is attacked by four or five units, their enemies are going to (in most cases) slowly advance in rank. My sovereign can simply move to the back of the available space, and use the staff. A turn or two later, the enemies are gone, without otherwise touching them. That still seem

I'm convincing they are in the early game, when my sovereigns find them. True, you can't use them every turn, but they're effectively a one-shot kill to everything on the screen early on, and even against resistant creatures do good damage. Perhaps make the item only available for use to characters of a certain level, or gimp it with a really hellish negative initiative. Or both.

Or possibly, "I'll make a note of this, and come back later."

Much better relationship of monsters to environment than in the Diablo and Fate series. Much larger game, lots more monsters, some pretty nasty traps. Game ramps up difficulty of dungeons for the second city you travel to a bit too quickly in my opinion, though I'm playing on veteran. Spell are far, far too few, and haven't found anybody selling them. Like the new enchant system.

[quote who="seanw3" reply="63" id="3234001"]Can you have an advanced interface for me? Maybe something you add after the basic is completely finished? [/quote] And if I can piggyback on top of that request, make it toggleable. So that users can easily move between the two, in order to see which better suits their needs and immediate capabilities.

I'd certainly like to see some monsters gain bonuses and malus for movement and combat on different terrains. That might even apply to some champions, as well, depending upon race.

Any chance of getting the spellbook associated with each spell into the Hiergamenon for 0981? And maybe having the entire list sortable by spellbook?

[quote who="alrom" reply="3" id="3233391"]that makes harder to get mantle of oceans and makes betrayers a little bit useless[/quote] Useless? Getting to hire [i]all[/i] the champions you find? Getting to use whatever level their opposite alignment magic is, sometimes as high as level 3? If that's useless, I'm not sure what would qualify as useful.

Could it be a saved game from an earlier beta, continued with the current one? That might cause some issues.

[quote who="Kongdej" reply="26" id="3233214"] Its a forum, dont take it personal [/quote] ;) Oh, I don't. If I sound exasperated, it's because the quoting and searching mechanisms in this forum software are about as bad as I've ever seen, anywhere. That's where my real frustration lies. :) [quote]I still hope troops gets to get quicker to build, and I start with proper troop research at some point, anyways, I will probably pla

[quote who="Derek Paxton" reply="6" id="3233137"] Quoting Heavenfall, reply 3Any Chance We can get essence added to the city level-up screen? Yes, Toby is working on that (we gotta make sure it has space and such, gonna add a few more resources so that it doesnt look wonky). Probably wont be in for this patch though. We have some other UI stuff thats higher priority. But it is on the list.[/quote] Good.

An interesting approach. Try varying your map size, and see if that affects your ratio of win/losses.

Then Alrom, I'm sorry for conveying to you a misunderstanding about the latest patch. Hopefully the fix will be up in the next few days.

I second this. Given how important Essence is in many ways, including it on UI is pretty important, too.

[quote who="Derek Paxton" reply="16" id="3233067"]Fixed, thanks.[/quote] Derek, I think you're confusing him a bit. He wants to know if the current beta update includes the fix you mention.

[quote who="pkaski" reply="5" id="3232922"]No, it's common sense that if the dev's didn't want you testing it, they would have added code to block loading older rev saves. [/quote] I'm pretty certain I recall seeing Brad comment that save games weren't completely compatible across betas. Personally, I would never assume compatibility in that situation with any game, but perhaps I'm just a bit pessimistic on that score.

[quote who="DsRaider" reply="12" id="3233042"] You will have too wait for the next patch for a fix. Derek just means it will be fixed in the next patch. [/quote] What's in 098b, then? It's different from 098, and there's been no word about it.

[quote who="alrom" reply="9" id="3233032"]I can´t install the patch, latest version, new game no market.[/quote] Would you care to elaborate about why you can't install the patch? I did, without any issues.

[quote who="alrom" reply="7" id="3233019"]So, if i redownload .98b i will be able to build markets?[/quote] Yes, but I don't know whether you'll have to start a new game, or not. Try the patch, then bring up your current game, and let us know what you see.

[quote who="leroy105" reply="22" id="3232693"] Quoting Napean, reply 20 Quoting Glazunov1, reply 5 Production nerf is great. Now there is more a hard choice what to build Agree completely. I am much less cavalier about sacrificing spearmen and settlers. snip If you're that good, you're just that good. Talk about amazingly good. Um when were you ever 'cavalier' about wastin

No idea what it changes, however. And it's different from 098, or at least, doesn't replace the 098 executable I downloaded the other day.

[quote who="Cyreph" reply="3" id="3232987"] Quoting Derek Paxton, reply 1Fixed, thanks.That was fast. So... I just reboot the game and start a new game?[/quote] No, it means you can download .098b, which will include this (and presumably one or two other changes). Then run the beta patch.
