Haven't been using viewports, but I'll try that now. I'm in what I think of as early/mid game. Just hit Rennaissance. On an eternity game, but only 3000 turns in. I gave everybody 2 great engineers, a great sci and a great merch turn 1, so tech sped up through prehistory. I'm on the...

So far-have told Rome, Russia, Italy not to contact me. Egypt and Navajo have contacted me, but not asked for anything special, and the turn went through. Even Italy asked for my help after being told not contact. My suspicion-this is an error with advanced diplomacy somewhere.

Ok. I think I have nailed down my personal issue with the "failed to... video... line:341" thing. My rig is an i53570k with 16gigs of Ram. Vid card is GeForce 660 Ti. Running windows 8. I'm trying to upload the save-it's .7z.(can't upload after all-can I send it by email to somebody?)...

... then again, maybe it was some buildings I missed...doh!

So I found the GlobalDefines thing We love the king rand and minpopulation, so I'm pretty sure I can turn it off. I may have missed something, though, as some smaller cities lost their graphics, too. I'm wondering if this isn't a problem with the wonders. It could simply be the same problem...

After searching around some for the mechanic that causes WLTK or for the effect of it, I've realized I have no idea where to look. :) If there's an option that can affect when it comes or something, I'm going to try and turn it off. Otherwise, if anyone knows where to find this, I'll try to...

The problem has remanifested when I had my first "We love the..." day. I'm trying to track it down now.

This seems to have fixed the problem.

I think I found the problem. It's the modular buildings in modular/hydro/buildings (or thereabouts). Using Worldbuilder I set walls on a city on turn one, then tried each other building in the city, together, to see what would make the walls disappear. On Boneworker's hut and Seamstress' hut...

I see what is happening(I think). It's like there is something that sets a display priority for stuff. Any idea where that might be? I tried doing worldbuilder on turn 1 to place a walls around my village, and it worked. Then I tried it on turnn 500 or so, and it would not display. I also...

Is there any way to make it display buildings in map view? For whatever reason, mine is not showing them at all. I know about the new buildings not having graphics, but what about stuff like walls?

Another week of testing, although I slacked this weekend while trying Civ 5. (My opinion? Meh. I'll wait a year.) Fixed the lock-up. Apparently, it dislikes circular unit advancements. I was trying to make it so certain units could laterally promote, like from warrior to horseman and back...

I think that my beefs with Civ 5 are the same ones that existed when Civ 4 came out and I was all hopped up on Civ 3 mods. Look at it. There's alot of potential in there. Pretty graphics, some new tactical problems from the land unit becomes it's own transport and what not. It's not the...

Cool thought, link16. Call it "artificial hill" or something. The only problem I see is how to get it to build a quarry and a road on it. Anyway. It's been a week of playtesting and tweaking. I'm focusing on the "scientific" tree right now, but I'm hitting a snag. I think that I'm hitting...

Well, I guess it's the thought that counts, right? Anyway, I got the techtree to a BASIC point of usability. I simplified the research requirements into 8 tiers, so I can find and replace any changes to the costs. I have most of the units in and working, as well as buildings. My weakness...
