Warlords 2.13, latest RFCW. I tried starting a new game while I was napping last night and at some point during autoplay there was a CTD. I assume the bug is the same. EDIT: Scratch that; the game just minimized, seems to work fine now. :D

Sorry to shamelessly plug a post, but nobody seems to have noticed my cry for technical support in my "sup yo" thread. link.

Well, I'm still trying to start a game. First I had a problem that required me to install DirectX9c's latest version. Then I started a game and when my turn finally came to spawn, the second I'd found my first city the game would CTD with no error message. Reloading didn't help. So I deleted and...

Heya people, look who's back. Kinda. As we speak I'm updating Warlords and preparing to install the latest Warlords version of the mod. This is after quite a while that I was away from the mod and thus from cIV as a whole. Anyhoo, I'm looking at a steady increase in my free time starting a...

How very embarrassing. :blush:

I have a vague recollection that I once learned that opium was very important to the Roman empire because it was used in the military to enable the legions to march beyond the point of exhaustion and to feel no pain. For years I have taken this for fact, although now that I think about it I...

Thing is, diplomacy is hard-coded. AFAIK these things would be impossible or very hard to implement.

Seeing as there's a max of five embassies per city, a nice idea comes to mind, though I don't know how well the AI would deal with it... The idea is simply that embassies in your capital give a bigger diplo bonus than ones in other cities. This would force you to pick your friends. But the whole...

Hey, Poland would have totally improved the political map of Europe!

I've actually never managed to get a vassal. I honestly don't understand how to. =X

The diplomacy game in Civ (=RFC/W) is more difficult than you would think. Basically, what I've come to understand is that there are approximately three ways to go. I will describe these three general strategies; perhaps there are others as well. 1. The Partisan This is probably the most basic...

The thing about the UHV tweaking is that it will require a lot of tedious work to really get it right... Patches upon patches upon patches. The updates will be minor, the work less so.

Wow. The end of an era, to be sure. It's sad for me to see it end, though it's also a bit exciting to see the mod entering its final stage of development. I think at this point we need to discuss one non-urgent issue that's come up and kinda begs address now that development is ending - what do...

Creating an enormous empire may seem tempting, but you have to be very careful not to let your expansion destabilize your government! The Expansion Civics can help with that. Watch your cities' health! An unhealthy city can contract the plague, and you don't want that to happen. An Aqueduct or a...

Spearthrower, I understand why one would dislike natural disasters, but at least some kind of plague had to be added for the meeting of Old World and New. I wouldn't be so quick to rule it out before playing a few games with this specific implementation of the plague.

I don't know if the AI can appreciate it, but if it can't I can think of two ways to make the AI play right. One is to have some improvement spawn will all cities, called "Frontier Outpost" or "Village Well" or whatever, and have it give whatever bonus we want for small size and make it...

Meh. Well, something's got to change in a big way here if the best way to achieve the realistic goals is to utterly defy historical realism.

W00t! :goodjob:

I like per-city calculations much more than civ-wide calculations because they make the game more dynamic. Besides, a peaceful builder will not produce many units in tiny frontier towns, and when they do it will be because the town is on a frontier and requires military defense. It makes sense...
