[quote who="Tydorius" reply="98" id="2754296"]I do understand how much of a pain debugging and such are. I work a lot in database administration and previously had a CEO that liked to log in behind my back and delete things he thought were 'not really needed'. Tables, fields, and even random bits of SQL. [/quote] It's not my intention to derail this topic but WTF?! That is seriously f***ed up. [e digicons]:omg:[/e]
[quote who="Gene1966" reply="6" id="2754293"]1. having researched Fortification (I always do this now so not 100% its required for improvements but given you could not I think it is required because I can)[/quote] I never researched Fortification so that's probably it. I didn't realize you needed specialized training to loot and pillage. [e digicons]:|[/e]
Yes. My gold mine was well within my territory and it was destroyed. I took my sovereign with a bunch of units to destroy their gold mines. When I was on top of the gold mine, there no option. I checked all of the sovereign's actions and didn't see anything that would allow me to destroy it.
Excellent question. The bastards destroyed my gold mine but I was unable to retaliate in kind. So instead I took over their city. [e digicons]:grin:[/e] Seriously, I'd like to know.

Unless there are other tags I should be looking for, I think there are only 24 quests which is why you're not seeing a lot of variation. All of them being located in the "Core Quests" folder. Quest_EscortNobleman1.xml(9): Quest_EscortNoblewoman1.xml(9): <Q
[quote who="Simsum" reply="160" id="2753993"]Firstly, I'd like to see the team post a complete list of the changes they intend to make to turn Elemental into a "fantastic game" instead of a patchwork of good ideas executed badly. And by complete list, I mean exhaustive detail. If you revise the combat mechanics, post the complete revised system so those of us who care to, can examine how and if it works.[/quote] ^ THIS I hope that before they start making changes that they com
[quote who="bortlings" reply="72" id="2754076"]They did manage to get married though.[/quote] I think the AI starts out married. At least that's my theory based upon the existence of "spouse units" in the CoreUnits.xml file and the fact that I've seen kids born within the very first few turns of the game.
I kept checking back and their servers finally came back up. I downloaded it from here, or at least found the link to download...

[quote who="dr_fishy" reply="25" id="2753815"]Wow, I have at 5870 (2GB) and disabling outlines is a huge help to the framerate (playing at 5540x1050) and it was already much improved vs. 1.06 before I tried that. I think it looks better too. Kudos so far. [/quote] So far I'm really liking the look of it without the outlines. The game also feels much better performance wise. Two thumbs up so far.

Try unchecking "Enable Auto Saves" under your Game options and see if that helps. If it does, you can do quick saves using CTRL+S. That seems to have reduced the end of turn pauses I was experiencing. I would gladly trade a longer time between saves for not having to experience the pauses every turn. So put that down on the wishlist - allowing a user to define the number of turns between saves. :)

[quote who="Zoomba" reply="1" id="2753734"]Yes. They should work with retail and D2D (or gamers gate etc).[/quote] Nice! I'm glad my daughter doesn't read these forums cause otherwise she'd be begging me to buy them. However those are very good sale prices and the fact they're part of the "Play for the Cause" charity drive has got me thinking about it.
The positive out of Elemental in the state that it's in, I now have even more game choices now than I have time to play them. Wish I would have known about these months ago. Would have saved me from spending money on Starcraft II and a few other games. SC2 is a decent game and all. I enjoyed the campaign but after that I was done with it. Main reason I bought it and others was because I was bored
Thank you to you and the rest of the team. It's much appreciated.
[quote who="Board_Marshal" reply="145" id="2753779"]I think Froboy's reply (#45) here is important and I only found it linked through another thread. A statement like that should be an independent post and not embedded as a reply in a post. I'm not saying he's trying to hide it, just saying I think it's simple, straight forward, honest, and blunt; I appreciate and respect that, I think everybody else in the forums would appreciate knowing it's there as well.[/q
I'm thinking the vacation was probably a good thing. It's probably allowed you time to reflect on the situation due to your limited connection. Had you been home, it's likely you would have reacted by doing more coding and not come to the realization you have now as to the state of the game. You should focus on the rest of your vacation, spend time with your wife. When you get back, take your team out to dinner. I'm sure they could use the appreciation after th

Thank you for the screenshots. It looks like there are a lot of similarities. Your search window has more tabs though. :) Nice write-up about Eclipse.
[quote who="Novaburst" reply="1" id="2747798"]Good writet up, I briefly looked at Eclipse but went back to Notepad++. Might have another look in the future with your post as reference. I use Sadman Software Search, for digging through the Elemental files.[/quote] TextPad is another excellent text editor. Let's you search subfolders. When you do a search it will show the file name, line number, and text. You can double click on it to load the file and it will take you
Agreed. The quests concept in this game is really cool.
Congrats! Today is a celebration of the fact that 20 years and 9 months ago your parents had unprotected sex.
[quote who="James009D" reply="101" id="2752893"]Honestly, and sorry if this sounds rude, but I'm sick of seeing these kinds of posts regarding modding because I'm seeing more then enough of them. If they continue then the Elemental modding community will likely be stifled before it can really be explored, discovered, and populated with talented people. Elemental modding needs more positive feedback, support, and more thanks..[/quote] Thank you for your time and effort. Now can
