[quote who="Uvah" reply="9" id="3149011"] I have the latest FF, that's when it started. I rolled back to version 11 then opened FF and it went right back to version 12, updated itself. Funny thing is it doesn't happen right away. See reply #4....same thing happens to me regardless of what version of FF I use. Always did that but only on WC. Doesn't happen on any other site. [/quote] One more thing to try: a new profile. Your profile is what stays constant across

Add a few columns that parse out the parts of the location you are interested in (yes, using mid&co (hint: instr)). Then work with those.

They always did for me, and yes, it's annoying sometimes. Noticed at least since .86, not sure about WoM. A more technical description: When loading a saved game, every unit with movement points and a set target movers its full move allowance toward the target before the player gains control.

I have seen this a few times already, back to at least .86. It tends to happen whenever you have a geometry like in your screenshot: Two zones of influence (almost) touching in a slightliy diagonal configuration.

I have gotten that from time to time even back in WoM. Normally, zooming out to cloth map and back in tends to fix it. In FE, it seems to happen when memory is getting tight (just like other optical strangeness), so take it as a hint to save, exit the game and start it again.

Get enough +sight items (Amulet of the Eagle, Compass, Telescope) and you'll see that there is Waerloga the Dragonlord (93 Atk, 49 Def, 107 HP; Lvl 1(?!)) locked inside.

Kongdej, thanks for your tips. [quote who="Kongdej" reply="1" id="3138651"]Nice munchup, not sure how many of these allready is posted, but that doesn't matter (better safe than sorry as i say).[/quote] I didn't see them reported recently. The other health bar threads are contemporary ;-) [quote who="Kongdej" reply="1" id="3138651"]If you need help putting in pictures, just ask.[/quote] The only one that would benefit is the one from sovereign d

Verified today. Magic Tech Tree: There is no tooltip for the last icon under sorcery. That seems to be Dispel Enchantment. Hero screen: The tooltip for encumbrance gives the ranges as Light Tactical Combat: The tooltip for enemies only shows up after I have viewed at least one of my own units. Was reported for .86 once. During a single attack, the hit point bars get

For me the hit point bar gets updated at the start of the attack animation, while the floating damage numbers show up at the end of the animation.

[quote quoting="post"] After all heroes have moved, the end turn button does nothing. Issue is the same even after saving / reloading. [/quote] This normally happens when one of your units tries to go across a non-enemy building. Pathfinding doesn't notice it should go around. Find that unit and move it around manually to continue.

Take a second look at the possibilities of XML modding, they seem to go quite deep. Looking at what Heavenfall has shown possible with special resources, you may well be able to create colored mana by creating special temples per kind of shard. It's less clear whether you could create spells that consume colored mana (but WOM had spells that needed you to have a certain kind of number of shards), and IMO unlikely that you could get a "1 fire + 3 any" mana mechanism like in M

[quote who="Ragmash" reply="7" id="3111809"]-- I WOULD LOVE to see a visual cue to show me which units still have movement points to use. After a long turn, I can forget and needlessly be clicking units that can't move. Maybe having a red-colored select-box when out of MPs, blue-colored for gaurding or immobilized, and green for ready?[/quote] Something like that would be useful, I agree. Until they implement it, you can use TAB to activate the next movable unit. Unfortuna

A radical possibility is to play on the cloth map only. That option is under gameplay, not video.

[quote quoting="post"]- How can resources per tile (grain/material) be displayed when the city is already built? Hovering over the Build/Settle button won't work anymore. If this is not possible, it might be an informative feature to consider[/quote] As described in the FE Mechanics explained thread, only the city core's tile counts. Those values can be found on the city detail screen. Instead of hovering over

[quote who="DarkGaldred" reply="4" id="3108873"] It is not the same: My game froze before the bear actually attacked, just after my hero meleed it. [/quote] ... just as it was starting to attack. The freeze from maul always happens before the first hit . [quote who="DarkGaldred" reply="4" id="3108873"] I suppose this one has been reported too, but with impulsive, it looks like fireball still only requires 1 turn to cast. <p

[quote who="DarkGaldred" reply="1" id="3106522"] - The game kept crashing on me when I loaded several times in a row [/quote] This has been reported several times. Exiting to desktop before loading seems to be the only cure. [quote who="DarkGaldred" reply="1" id="3106522"] - Removing an improvement from a city ... The worst part is that sometimes, it does really look like the city would still be contiguous, were you to raz

[quote who="fuzzbonce" reply="3" id="3106237"] CPU : AMD Phenom II X3 Tri Core 720 Black Edition 2.8GHz [b](overclocked to 3.3GHz)[/b] [/quote] Have you tried without overclocking? It may be that your overclock is normally stable, but that FE loads it in a different way than what you normally do. One such difference could be that FE is much more multithreaded than most other common software, using all your cores at the same time and needing

[quote who="joasoze" reply="81" id="3105780"]Does production of units cost population?[/quote] By experiment, no. Additionally, although the message for disbanding a unit says "x people deserted to ", doesn't get extra population.

This has been mentioned a few times. Every enemy with the MAUL speciality (attack again and again until the target evades) at least causes a long pause (say ~30sec). So maybe if you wait a while, your game will recover; mine always did, but it's extremely annoying. Be warned that defending (shield icon) also takes a long time - maybe just as long.

While the game can easily deal with two stacks in a single square, my units/stacks seem to have a lot of fun stepping off the road to pass another of my units on the road during auto move.

See the [Typo] threads (shrill lord, trainer ii) for examples. I'm criticizing the fact that this can happen at all. All these descriptions should be created dynamically from the game data, ensuring they are always the same for a given fact and always up to date. As things stand, even if they agree, they may be totally out of sync with what the game does - unless one of them already gets generated the way I suggest, and then it should be easy to use that code in al

[quote who="bpalczewski" reply="5" id="3101109"]Yea, this boss is totally stupid ... Does not deal any damage and you just have to hit it x times with storm, not big challenge and certainly not a an epic fight ...[/quote] If you melee him, he packs quite a punch. At least he did so for me. I did him with a lvl 11 or 12 melee champion, two drakes and two healers. Using just the drakes' fire breath (target a square in front of him) looked fa

Q: Are there specific buildings to choose for each city level e.g. prison only appears when city levels to level 3, or is there a chance to get the option prison at both city level 2 and 3? A: From reading CoreAbilites.xml and from experience the improvements are specific to the city level. Q: How is the Crystal resource used to make magical weapons/armor? A: As a raw material, just like iron for mundane weapons/armor. Q: How can I
