[Beta-test] v.39 beta5

[Gedemon]

thinking of it, there may be a (hacky) way to fix that, using what I've done for MPMPM

That would be nice or else everyone will report you CTD. Maybe you can put a warning to disable DLC.

If people were actually reading the installation instructions (or at least the BOLD CAPITAL RED TEXTS), I wouldn't have to put so many check in the setup screen !

But I can't blame them, I do the same: installing, crashing, raging, then, finally, reading

And you're right, I can't upload that as it is on steam, I'll try to add the hacky fix. And put a warning about that too.

(and yes, right, I've not even tried to put a warning about disabling the DLCs/Expansions yet, but I will too)

Alright, hacky fix coded, new version on gitHub and here:

R.E.D. WWII Edition (v.39) beta 5.07 (required)
R.E.D. Xtreme for WWII Edition (v.39) beta 5.07 (optional)


Change log:

• DLL : Really fix game event "GameDoTurn" to be called after the new turn is initialized.
• DLL : Add a function to create a RED_WWII folder in the game's "assets/DLC" folder to override some vanilla files to prevent crash on load before deactivating DLCs/Mods
• Balance : Add a harbor for the AI in ABERDEEN (U.K.) on the 39-45 Europe map
• Bug fix : Mobile Artillery can counter-fire / provide support fire

The fix is installed/updated in the assets/DLC folder of Civ5 when you launch a new game only, if you want to test it with a save game (from today !), just launch a new game, quit and reload your previous save.

If it works, we're very close to a v.39 release on steam.

Just a gee wiz, quality of life thing here =) is it possible to add a load game on your ingame options menu? Currently we have quick save, save (but we cant name the save, hmm another QOL!!) quit to windows ect. Just nitpicky i know but, a guy can dream

It has been removed for the same reason that the quit to main menu has been removed: reloading from in game or quitting to main menu while the mod is active makes the game crashes.

I hope it could be fixed at some point, so I can implement seasons...

 

[Gedemon]

Updated again...

• Update to the vanilla files override to prevent crash on load, the DLC/Mods reconfiguration is now automated (the fix is updated after launching a new game or after loading a previous save)
• Log cities production for minor nations
• Add the BT-2 to soviet units build list
• Bug fix : notification for new project should be displayed correctly
• Bug fix : do not launch counter-fire or support fire if the triggering unit can't attack...
• Bug fix : no need to check if the attacking unit can attack for counter-fire, the attack is already made !
• Balance : volley promotion give bonus against Fortification units

R.E.D. WWII Edition (v.39) beta 5.08 (required)
R.E.D. Xtreme for WWII Edition (v.39) beta 5.08 (optional)

for all of your .39 mods, the fall of Poland works every time, i can capture Warsaw on turn 4 every time. However, the Fall of France after taking Paris crash's every darned time =( I can take Paris on turn 10 every time as well. Is the game crashing because im moving to quickly and not allowing the time line to progress?

 

[Gedemon]

I'd like to see your lua.log and test a save game (if made with beta 5.06 or above) made just before you're ready to capture Paris with your units, TIA.

 

[kogre]

Sure, im at work so ill do that when i get home.

Because im kinda lost on how to upload those goodies as my last attempt failed miserably, can you post some instructions for me or direct me to them if they are already out here somewhere please and thank you

 

[Gedemon]

there is a small "how to" for the lua.log here: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=501865

and your save should be in your "My Documents\my games\Sid Meier's Civilization 5\ModdedSaves\single" folder, I use www.mediafire.com to upload those kind of files.

 

[ZeroZeroSix]

Mobile artillery work as it should now. There is wierd graphic for the soviet ML-20 artillery. The fall of france work every time for me, maybe it is environement issue. (OS, graphic card and driver, .net...etc)

 

[ZeroZeroSix]

Sound really wierd but what regional parameter are you using Kogre?

 

[kogre]

what is this regional paramater that you refer to sir?

 

[ZeroZeroSix]

Those, date format and decimal separator for instance.

 

[kogre]

also another gee wiz, i have NOT cleared out my cache, i went to take a look at it, and it has alot of files and folders in it, im a bit unsettled about just nuking it...

 

[ZeroZeroSix]

If you are talking about the files in My Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 5\cache, you can safely delete them. They will be recreated when you start Civ 5 also mods you suscribed in steam will be updated.

Just got a crash, after passing a few order the game crash. Can you test it please?
