View Full Version : Post-update UI Anomalies

Unfortunately, my installation of NiGHTS is still unplayable even after the v.120 patch.

It runs perfectly upon starting a new game, but after you leave and try to load your save file... this happens.

The game seems to be keeping proper track of all the numbers and stats. I know this because I once tested the bugged trading menu. I had wheat at the time, and clicked on Wheat (0), which had no visible effect on the trading menu, but when I clicked propose, he took the invisible wheat graciously from me. So this seems to be just a UI problem.

Has anyone else had this problem with NiGHTS? Am I the only one who can't play NiGHTS right now?

Unrelated Question: After the 14 June 2012 update, I noticed that when you start a game you start off with 2 settlers, 2 scouts, and 1 warrior. I liked this change. But now neither vanilla nor NiGHTS seems to have this. Was it just a weird bug? Is there a way I can get it back to being like that?

The pics aren't loading for me for some reason - but certain load orders have changed in CIV V since the patch update, so now you can only load a game form the main menu. If you try to load a mod from within an already active game, you'll get some strange graphical bugs.

Ah, I thought I was being clever about making the uploaded pics public (finding the image URL and displaying that instead), but I guess it didn't really work out. Here are the pics again.

This is a bug that's been known for quite some time actually. It's caused by trying to load saves from within the game.

The only work around is to go back to the main menu, load the mod, then load the save game again. Tedious, I know. but that's the only way.

You don't have to load the mod, it will be loaded automatically when you load a savegame that requires it.
