View Full Version : Cannot change civics
HerrOber Oct 05, 2007, 10:00 PM It is a very annoying and disappointing problem that I get on BTS.
Whenever I want to change the civic (and start revolution), I cannot do so because the Civics window does not have OK button. All I can see is Cancel. I tried selecting a new civic (Slavery for example) and simply clicking Enter, but this doesn't work.
I mostly can go around the problem when I discover a proper technology (like Bronze Working) and agreeing to the revolution promtp. But in case with Democracy (which allows two civic changes) I can only change one.
By the way, I also notices thatseveral interface labels are not internationalized. For example, instead of Marathon i see somethong like BTN_KEY_MARATHON_XXX (can't recall exactly), and similar for Custom scenarios.
Anyone with any tips or ideas please?
Desert-Fox Oct 06, 2007, 04:47 AM perhaps you have not these civics available yet?
Enigma256 Oct 06, 2007, 05:24 AM or you have to wait a few turns from your last change?
HerrOber Oct 06, 2007, 09:03 AM How can I attach the screenshot?
HerrOber Oct 06, 2007, 09:05 AM Aha, it worked. As you can see in the game speed section, the label for marathon is weird looking.
Right now, I cannot start a game to show you a Civic window, but I will try to reinstall and then get a screenshot.
HerrOber Oct 06, 2007, 09:48 AM OK, I reinstalled BTS, so that the game does not crash anymore (after patch 3.13).
Here is the screenshot of the Civics window. I just discovered Bronze Working, got the prompt for revolution and adopting Slavery and replied No.
Then I got to Change civics and get the following screenshot. How am I supposed to change something. By the way, clicking on Cancel also does not have any effect.
I willreally appreciate any help.

Bhruic Oct 06, 2007, 10:03 AM Are you still getting the TXT_KEY_GAMESPEED_MARATHON? That's an indication that at least one file is either missing, or incomplete. That certainly could cause problems in other areas as well.

TheLastOne36 Oct 06, 2007, 10:05 AM Are you using any mod?
HerrOber Oct 06, 2007, 10:14 AM Actually, I noticed that labels similar to TXT_KEY_GAMESPEED_MARATHON are all over the place. And no, I am not using any MODs.
Actually, after I tried playing custom MOD senarios, it was a total disaster - graphics, interface, invisible units. A ery-very buggy gameso far. I fee like going back to warlords until decent patch is realeased. I tried installing 3.02, 3.03 - these did nothing good. Aftre installing 3.13, the game started crashing.
Bhruic Oct 06, 2007, 10:36 AM Can you try performing the steps outlined in http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=246151

HerrOber Oct 06, 2007, 09:49 PM Bushface, I already have done what you suggest - clean install from the scratch, that is. Did not help.
Bhruic, thanks for the suggestion. It is quite today already, so I will do all steps over the weekend. Thanks
