Hi Hanno555 - if you could post the recent saves, debug, and dmp file (if created) that would help. You can post these files through dropbox. You can check that out at dropbox.com. It should help the devs track down your specific oom - just a recommendation from a grizzled playtester like myself.
[quote who="Lord Xia" reply="110" id="2926530"]The problem why everything is taking as long as it is, is they are doing three things at once. Yes, I understand that the poster wants them to take all their energy and put it toward fixing this game. But just because its his opinion, it doesn't make it valid. Also, WoM was really fucked when released. Lots of problems. Am I disappointed that it is taking so long, yes I am. Am I concerned that the changes t

[quote who="mywhiskey" reply="6" id="2926455"]Don't you get bored using vanilla factions, especially since we can't play with mods? I like to play with the different colors in the custom factions, now I'm changing armor colors (shows how bored I am). Mainly, you get a wider variety of perks for your faction, which is probably overpowered, but so what, it's more fun. [/quote] In short, yes. But that's why I'm a big fan of the mod community! <img src="http:/

[quote who="mywhiskey" reply="4" id="2926164"]I'm so glad you brought up the custom faction colors. I bring up that bug a lot but I think I'm the only one complaining about it so it hasn't been fixed yet. I guess most people play with the vanilla factions so the colors not being saved doesn't affect them. The game also doesn't save portraits when you have a horse equipped. Have you noticed that? That's another one that drives me nutz. [/quote] Yeah,
Woohoo!
I've noticed that occasionally the buttons on the right hand side of the map get all screwy (i.e. placed behind the faction power listing) when certain things occur. In this example, I had everything turned on except the mini-map: Faction Power Window, City Hud, & Terrain Window. The UI placed the buttons behind the faction power window after I attacked and killed Magnar. I think there are other catalysts too - I'll post them here if I notice them again. Zip (saves of

Same example, a couple of turns later. The strategic UI count has reverted again to 3 but the inventory count remains at 1.
The turn right after the one above. ElanaAhova still has 1 in her inventory (correct) but the strategic UI count dropped from 3 to 2:

This has been around awhile but since I have less oom's to report (yay!) I wanted to throw this out there. Why does a champion's inventory show incorrect counts of items, such as midnight stones, etc? It's like it's totalling from across all champions instead of the one selected. I've seen this with salted porks, nectars, etc... anything that has multiple counts. Zip - shots, last couple of saves - <a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19969679/Elemental/119m/UDFv0.1f/1
