Deity? (Policy selection is pretty consistent on deity, whereas on lower difficulties there is randomness at play.)

On Deity, the AI that used to go statecraft seem to be going artistry.

Ah, as a Emperor player I'd forgotten how optimally streamlined Deity is supposed to be. That's good to know if I ever get the hang of warring properly and hopefully go up the levels.

Here is the data points from my game:

Carthage - Statecraft
Russia - Statecraft
Spain - Statecraft
Ottoman - Statecraft
England - Statecraft
Indonesia - Statecraft (My noble cohorts)

Brazil - Artistry
Assyria - Artistry

Observations on early English Spy:

Now on turn 198 (Standard)
I met England on turn 5 and quickly shared a conflicted boarder. Two wars later, she has never used her early spy against me and I can't see that she has any influence over any of the city states. I'm allied to 5 city states in her her vicinity.
It seemed a little strange that Lizzie would not try some skullduggery against me as we warred and quarreled over boarders. (England had only warred with me)
In the beginning, perhaps she used her spy against other Civs with more techs etc (but now I'm level on techs with the leader and just got ahead on policies). Hopefully, she didn't use the early spy for counter espionage when there was no threat from all us other Civs with no spies.

The "stop city razing" button doesn't seem to work. Both it and the confirmation prompt are clickable, but the razing doesn't stop. Is anyone else getting this issue?

Sometimes, I have not checked the current patch cause I have been trying to play more non-war games. But it has been around for a while on and off as I recall it now.

I noticed an trading issue for a few games now that the imports are acting a bit odd. It's not all the time but it happens sometimes. Is it a Portugal, as far as I can recall it's shouldn't be, issue? Take the screenshot here as an example. Portugal has spare Truffles they want to sell. But I'm already importing it twice, for another 94 and 101 turns (all trades with 101 turns started this turn). So it has updated that I am importing from Portugal yet if one looks at the Resource Imported headlines it's not in the summary, but the Jade from the Huns is. That trade started this turn to. Also note that the incense I just started to import isn't there either. But nobody has spares of that to sell at the moment. Also Portugal if willing to sell me even more Truffles is I just ask (and had spare gold).

Soooo ... what is up with that? Next question is then am I getting happiness from it? Is this related to the weird horse and iron bug where you sometimes didn't get them back if you traded them away?

These bugs should be reported on Github.

If I install this do I have to install all the hotfixes or just the latest one? I would like to play with RAS. Thanks
Just curious. Did anyone ever make a 5UC for this?

The latest hotfix is all you need, and idk about 5UC, but there's a wonderful 3/4UC modmod made by PineappleDan here: https://forums.civfanatics.com/threads/3rd-and-4th-unique-components-for-vp-official-thread.631657/

So do I just install the 7-1-3 version for the latest version of the mod?

Yes you do not need to install all the hotfixes

 

[ohhaimark]

At this point, I've reinstalled hot fix #3 several times via the installer / manually cleared out and turned off all other mods except for Vox Populi but still am not receiving any notifications - no wonders built, no meeting city states, religions / pantheons founded, or unit death or promotion. Unsure what the cause is at this point. Anyone have any suggestions?

I had the same problem and the only thing that fixed it was installing VP with EUI.

Sadly, whenever I try EUI I get several text rendering failures which make the game unplayable for me. Unsure for why that has recurred throughout each patch / fix - including this time.

This is typically happening when EUI lands in a wrong location. You need toove the ui_bc1 folder from the wrong location to where your Civ5 is installed.

Browse the few newest pages in the install thread, you will find more info there, this comes up quite often.

Dumb question but have you used the auto installer to install VP with EUI?

 

[ohhaimark]

Yes, I've used auto installer for EUI. I've tried moving the ui_bc1 folder like Vyyt suggested as well but am unsure if I have the correct file path. only DLC folders i can find for Civ V are in in the Assets folder, and the community patch itself.

Anyone know whats causing this with the installer?

 

[Teholb]

I'm not using any modmods, just have VP + EUI 7-1_3 in a modpack and in SP mode. Is this a known bug, and if not, how do I report it? I can't click the "Make Event Choice" button for the spy event.

That's been reported a couple times, seems to be from the antivirus you are using.

Yes, there is a problem between the new spy system and EUI when you use them in a modpack.

Yeah I managed to take notice a little later when googling around for an answer.
