Ashes of Erebus (RifE's Follow-up) Download and Bug Reports

[black_imperator]

I'm not sure I understand why the Ljosalfar and Svartalfar were changed to Ljosalfheimr and Svartalfheimr. Ljosalfar and Svartalfar are the names of the civilizations themselves. Ljosalfheim(r) -- or Alfheim(r) -- and Svartalfheim(r) are the Old Norse names for the realms where they live: "home of the light elves" and "home of the dark elves," respectively. I don't think there are any other civilizations named for their countries, unless that's the plan for all civs going forward. It was just a bit jarring, since they've been known as the Ljosalfar and Svartalfar since the early days of FfH2.

If the plan is to change all the civs' names to the names of their countries, then okay, I understand starting with the easy ones.

There was a thread a long time ago asking about the adjectival and national forms for each civ, if that would be of interest:

Thread 'Adjectival and National form for each Civ'

Jun 25, 2009

What is the adjectival and national form for each of the nations? For instance, the ambassador for France is the French ambassador.

Does this mean that the land is called Illian or is that the land called Illia and the people are the Illians?

it was part of a big text update that i didn't notice . There is indeed a discussion about the adjective and national form currently, but i would have prefered do it all at once ( or not at all, or in a module, depending on what's the main opinion coming out of the discussion ^^)

I'm not sure a redo is necessary, given that this is what they've been called since the beginning, but if that ends up being the main opinion, then okay. It's not critical either way. As I said, it was just a bit jarring -- maybe unexpected is a better word. I'll still keep playing.

Send a screenshot of your install directory? There's a few things to try, like making sure your BTS is up to date.
If you use discord, check out the link in my sig for an active server that can help you pretty fast, and has a step-by-step guide for setup.

such warnings are over 100 then game crashed

This is your issue in part; the folder MUST be Ashes of Erebus exactly; though you said you changed it in the first post, I'm not seeing it here. Your system language being outside of supported... probably shouldn't be an issue, but I'm not sure.
If you have the technical familiarity, you could try changing system settings. I have no clue if it'll help if the above doesn't fix it, but you could try this. Sometimes it helps me run programs that were designed in non-english systems, and the reverse might be true if it's e.g. having trouble somehow parsing \ characters in the xml.

all the compatible moduels are integrated in the download. you'll find them either in Assets/Modules/Normal Modules for the active ones and Assets/Inactive Modules/Normal Modules for the inactive ones. If you want to try one of the inactive, just move the module from one folder to the other.

Try this, I got this from a Chinese civ website back when I was still a student, just put it in the Beyond the Sword folder and run it.
By running it right there, it would find and replace accent letters like î,ù in .xml files, thus cure the problem,
Hope this help.

Catacomb Libralis shows in city build options after KoE research but is greyed out and not showing any missing pre-reqs

Tidecaller has an image problem (or is just very embarassed...)

I'm sure this has been asked before but is it possible to make trails more visible?
