Also found that when the hang up occurs, if you exit to the main menu and try and load a game then the system hangs. But if you exit to the main menu and then exit the game. It leaves the game running in back ground. Never closing it unless you end task it.
Actually it just happened again on a new game I just started. This time it not only hung on the first hero. but when I got to 50 fame, my research just happened to finish at the same time. The game got stuck again. I saved and exited, when I returned I got to pick my new research option, but not the hero. Played on and finally got a hero when I reached 100 fame. It's the Hero selection screen that is hanging it.
This is the same thing that has been happening to me.But it has happened enough that I have narrowed it down. It's at the point where I should be getting my first Hero. When it end my turn and my fame reaches 3. The only thing I can do is save the game. Exit all the way out (usually with an end task from the task manager) then come back in and reload. The game starts up fine and continues, but I never get that first hero. Seems like the window for the sele
I'm having several issues with beta 4. First are video issues. The main one once i installed that last update, all my custom mages lost their heads. I think that is what start causeing the constant crashes in in the game after that point. So I started a new game (several actually) with a new custom mage. The first time I reloaded the game that mages head was gone as well. Sevearl other random video issues. When archer or mage groups fire a volley, firs
I get the following windows application Error when I try to load a saved game. "The Exception Unknown software exception (0xc000000d) occurred in the application at location 0x017561ab. Click on OK to Terminate the program." This has happened me in all 3 games i have started. I think it happens after one of my champions sells an item that was in their inventory. I was very careful this game not to do that, but I had trade up their weapons and I forgot wh
OOM crashes happen every time I take a option on the tech tree that auto updates many things. Like housing or sages then try and save the game. or the auto save kicks off. if I reload and then take a different tech the game continues fine until I take the housing tech later on. then it crashes again. As a test I was able to take the housing tech later on by destroying all the huts in all my towns the turn before then when the housing upgrade happened nothing got auto updated and I was
[quote]Gasp, I have offended someone on the Internet! In seriousness, read the posting again. I was not saying swillo was trolling, I said that I was wandering dangerously close to that territory with my curmudgeonly ways. Thus I stopped ranting and went for an amusing cartoon character, one of my favorite ways of defusing through humor. Its also a thread; the statements about Blink seem to show not read the pages of discussion around Blink that had already occurred.
Why was the Blink spell Removed? And how do I put it back in? You already removed most of the spells from the game, Raised the cost for casting anything so high it's near impossible to cast more then a few spells a turn, made it so the casters use all their action points to cast just one spell. Not even sure why Magic is in the title any more. There are only maybe 3 or 4 spells per book. so what is the point of creating a sovereign to specialize in one type of magic wh
OH one more then I need to get back to work! For caravans protection just allow the guard option the you currently have for a unit to apply to other units. Then they can select the caravan and your forces will travel with them. Seems a pretty easy option to handle protecting caravans.
OH and the option for an immortality quest/spell/combo of both, would be GREAT! Otherwise if you are playing in RPG mode you would have a limit on the age that you can achieve. Thus putting pressure on you to complete the quest as you get older.
On succession: For AI factions I think that it is a must have. I just doesn't make sense that the entire empire, all the people and cities and units just vanish when the sov dies. I think succession after an AI sov dies has LOTS of implications. Like: the faction is taken over by the next in line for the throne. However parts of the faction (units, siblings, cities) may decide to join an Ally's faction, or join a faction who has a spouse from the original one, or split among various s
Been playing Elemental for a short time now and really liking it. Good job. Since 1.07 my crashes have mostly gone away and performance is much improved. [e digicons]:grin:[/e] Couple things to pass on not sure if they have all been covered all ready or not. But here goes. When researching a spell if you open the spell book and add or delete any other spells to the que it will cause you to start researching the current spell over. Even if you only have 1 turn left. <br
