Is this a bug or something peculiar to my PC?
I have recently installed the 1.22 Conquests patch. I have a scenario that I had previously created with barbarian activity set to "No Barbarians". Only now, barbarian camps start showing up on the map when I begin a new game. I've tried doing a clean install of the game as well as reimporting the scenario into the editor but to no avail. Has the No Barbarian setting been broken?

It's Conquest I'm afraid like you I bought Conquest unaware of this problem, if I had known I would not have bothered!

Unfortunately only Conquest is being further developed not PTW to be honest the lack of Barbarians the much easier Victory conditions. The AI is not as strong as PTW so I went back to PTW but as I say only Conquest is being patched.

So you can play Conquest with added content better stability or...

You can go back to PTW great barbs, better and stronger AI but not as stable.

Yes I know it sucks
.

But prior to the patch this was okay. The problem I have is that Barbarian camps appear in my scenario even tho' I have the "No Barbarians" option selected in the scenario properties. This option seems to have been broken by the latest patch release.

Have you saved the bic again after you updated C3C?

Yes POLM I resaved it then I tried importing it into a new biq but nothing has fixed the problem.

You say barbarian camps are showing up? I believe you and only have suggestions to look into. On the General Tab, what have you there, in the Barbarian unit? and in the Advanced Barbarian unit setting? And also as the sea barbarian unit?

Recommended cure; put 'none' in all these windows. Additionally go through on the unit Tab and un-highlight all units as available to the Barbarian CIV.

This I believe/hope will solve this problem.

Happy Modding!

thanks Antrine this is what I've done, barbarian camps still appear on the map but there are no longer any barbarian units. You can still move over the barbarian camps and 'disperse' them for 25 gold.

You welcome, glad it worked! And hey, nothing like a little free gold along the way, gives yet another thing to beat AI's to.
