A New Dawn Bug Reports and Feedback

[Afforess]

Odd bug here. When I was installing, the installer said an error had occured right near the end of the process. I start up Rise of Mankind to see what's going on, two things I notice:

1) The Civilopedia refuses to open. I click on the button in the main menu, the game jitters a bit, and then I'm still in the main menu.
2) I open a game to see if anything is wrong in there. All the interface is gone (or invisible, I'm not sure). Either way, I cannot play.

I think I'm going to try to reinstall using my backup ROM. Can you guys tell me what went wrong?

Bad Install. Turn off UAC and get a clean copy of RoM 2.81, then re-install.

A friend and I are having quite a rough time with OOS issues. What kind of data do you need from us for troubleshooting purposes, and do you have any tips on avoiding the OOSes?

We're both running the recommended install of AND beta 11 on clean ROM full 2.81 installs. The host is on XP Pro x86, and I'm on Win7 Pro x64. OOS'es happen anywhere from the first turn to the 20th, and we've yet to find a single cause. Map is a large terra.

Please report beta problems within that thread.

Anyway, I believe Afforess want logs from both of you who are playing.

Hello Afforess!

I have problem with RoM 2.81 and A New Dawn 1.55. Whatever I doing, i have crash.
It is some 40-50 turns of game. I can't play in this super mod! Please me!

PS: It's my first post so hello everybody! Sorry about my english .

You will need to be more specific so that Afforess can help you. What settings are you using, what were you doing when it crashed, what was the error message etc.

Afforess, there seems to be a problem with either Beta 11 or the green UI. The pop-up text when I highlight workers, terrain etc. frequently "slips" and starts at the bottom of the screen, beneath the HUD, not floating on top of the HUD as normal. The diplomacy screen will revert it to normal, but I don't know what's going on there.

Could you post a screenshot, I'm not sure what you mean.

I just encountered an EPIC ROFLOL Moment, I told my Mom to get 2x1GB RAM sticks and they didn't even sell them anymore

and a 2GB was just $10

EDIT: It gets better, when my Mom came how she had a 2GB Flash Drive!

Here's what I mean, Afforess. I don't know if it's just me, but I find the translucent HUD to be a distraction in diplomacy, being able to see the terrain and whatnot while I'm trying to focus on dealing the various leaders.

ICK! please make it more Opaque!

 

[Afforess]

Not sure what the issue is... It's meant to look like that.

Don't worry, the next QoTW will be about UI's.

 

[NotSoGood]

Not sure what the issue is... It's meant to look like that.

If you are talking about the green UI problem, take closer look to unit info box in the down left. I think it should be higher.

 

[Arakhor]

If you look in the bottom corner, the floating text has slipped down behind the HUD. That's not supposed to happen, surely?

 

[Afforess]

I see that, but I've got a game up with that UI ATM, and the unit box is drawn above correctly. Odd.

 

[Arakhor]

So have I (I loaded it up to get the screenshot) and the text keeps bouncing above and below the HUD, often when the screen is refreshed.

Do you know why does the date doesn't appear on my game?Screenshot below

 

[Arakhor]

That's a new (and controversial) function of AND. You can switch it back on in the BUG settings (Ctrl-Alt-O).

Because the date has no bearing or meaning in civilization, a game where history is completely different in time.
