Had a few days off and clean-installed (adv) civ. Happy days. :) Things I noticed viz 1.08: The unit info display bug, random personalities bug and the (memory leak?) slowdown issues after a few hours of playing are all fixed. Also enjoyed seing the pop whipping limit removed. V 1.09 is very...

So nice to see some life on this thread again. Just wanted to add that, like @Furloughed , I've come around to playing with espionage on thanks to AdvCiv. It's not the most well-designed subsystem, but I've made it part of my playstyle and the game is better for it. Also, I've long since played...

Heya - grats on the new 1.09 release! Otsukaresama! I've recently moved to Paris for a new job, so had to take some time out from playing and posting, but I just downloaded it and will give it a spin today. Thank you for all your efforts. AdvCiv is the best version of the game, you're right...

Leftfield question: Why does the AI like to build forts on top of (surplus) resources?

After playing a fair bit of civ over the last few weeks, I've noticed one recurring hard-crash bug. It happens when you take a city and decide to "liberate" it, reverting it to its original owner. I've had three games where this happened and don't recall an instance where I did liberate and it...

Thanks for the explanation. So, basically, the folders will be merged rather than your folder replacing the original one. I'll give it a go. Again, great job on the mod, thanks.

Umh ... the "assets" folder in your ethinc_artstyles top-level folder contains far fewer files than the assets folder in the advciv mod folder. Am I really supposed to copy the former over the latter? Sorry if I'm stupid, but could you explain in more detail what to do with your assets and...

Hello all - just clocking in after a few months on the road to tell you I've been giving the latest version of advciv a spin on my usual settings (see sig). After a few false starts, I've taken a game into the late industrial age now, running third behind a powerful-but-backward Ragnar and a...

Not sure if it actually freezes or just takes forever to get to the "initializing" screen - longest I'd waited was probably a few minutes, but I don't recall this happening before. Will install your latest RC - for which many thanks - and see if the problem persists. Sorry I haven't been more...

Quick and probably not very useful bug report, but: I've generated 8 new maps on Totestra huge / 18 civ and have had 3 instances where the it hung up during map generation, before switching away from the menu screen. I don't recall this happening before - did you make any changes to that part of...

Thanks for the info; it's amazing how weak my factual knowledge of the numbers behind it is, considering how much time I've spent playing this game. I checked my last save from the game I mentioned in worldbuilder and found half a dozen barb galleys out at 670 BC. Guess my late contact was due...

So, I took 1.08rc for a spin yesterday, mainly to check out barb (galley) changes. On my usual huge Totestra / marathon / 18 civs settings, the effect was quite noticeable. I started on a 5-city peninsula inside a Mediterranean-like ocean, so plenty of coastline all around. Was able to...

Hi all - just wanted to touch base, say thanks to all who participated in the playalong; great fun, learned a lot. I'm very excited to see @f1rpo is back at work and that this forum is picking up again. I've had to travel a lot for work but have more time now, so if there are RCs to test, I'm...

Heya Mark, thanks for joining. Just read your first post - interesting how everybody here a) founded in place and b) went SE for the 2nd city, going mano a mano with Ragnar. What happens after that is imo very decisive. I think I barely escaped your fate of being attacked by him, by rushing...

Hey guys - works's been interfering in the past week so I haven't posted, but I've immensely enjoyed reading all the writeups and learned a lot. Grats to Santa and f1rpo for finishing, and looking forward to @Mark_82021 playthrough and analysis. I find it very interesting how the wider world...
