Do you think Firaxis would overlook this exploit?

Lol! So it's an anti exploit mechanism. Got it.

i have 2 problems:

i'm running only CP and CBP only and i can't play because immiediatly after the "configuring game data" screen after selecting the mods
i have windows xp and i'm running on dx9
i have the latest version of the patch and i think the latest of the game (only auto update idk exactly)
i tried deleting and download again
deleting the cache
deleting other mods
and it still crash after that
does someone know what can i do??? my computer is really slow and terrible but that should not be the problem


on my father's computer which has windows 7 and dx11 it works even with hotseat multiplayer and i did the same things with only CP and CBP but if I try to use the EUI (CBP version) there are terrible bugs that makes game unplayable:
-the tile yields are all food and it's not only an interface problem it's really only food so i can't have production nor gold nor anything else
- if i press on select production it doesn't do anything
P.S: sorry but i'm not english so try to understand

Read installation instructions more carefully.
As for production bug, you've installed EUI into DLC folder, right?

I think you missed this part in the installation instructions:

If using the CBP, delete the LUA folder in the main Community Patch mod folder!
If using one of the CBP Compatibility Mods, delete the LUA folder in the main Community Balance Patch mod folder!

What you are describing is typical for leaving the LUA folder in.

Which version of EUI? Also, did you clear your cache?

[Gazebo]

Yes, these logs are CP only (9-9v2) with cleared cache and everything.

No, I don't switch between CP and VMC, I just put it in once for a single test (new game) to see if the problem persists (it doesn't) in case some gamefiles are broken, but deleted VMC from the mod folder and cleared the cache afterwards before I put CP back in.

I also tried it on the other computer where I did a complete reinstall (so no other mods have been used there) and the database log is completely identical, I already compared everything.


edit: should I try an older version for test purposes? I don't have anything older than 8-24 on my disk though..

Okay, I'm not sure I'm getting everything here, as your posts are little bit scattered. First, let's pretend (for the sake of debugging) that the Various Mod Components DLL (VMC) doesn't exist, and we're only talking about the CP (and the CP by itself, specifically). I say this because, while the VMC and CP share similar DNA, they are drastically different. There's really no comparison at this point.

Issues You Have:

1.) You are getting a lua bug where CS information isn't refreshing when you click 'make peace'

2.) The game crashes if there are more CSs than standard

3.) Religions are not saving between save/load of game.

Is this correct?

Okay, so your mod list is:

• Community Patch
• Community Balance Patch
• EUI

Is this correct? If so, are you using the EUI posted on the 'How to Install' page? If yes to both, are you using CSD and C4DF (the other two major downloads on the 'How to Install' page) along with the EUI-CBP Compatibility mod?

Your signature indicates that you speak Italian natively. I'm not sure if there are any other Italian speakers here. I can clumsily try to translate the instructions if you need me to.

Just going to point out that Barbarians are still able to fortify after attacking with ranged units in the 9-9 version.

Yes, we are only talking about CP. No VMC and no other mods that are active alongside CP.
I didn't mean to compare CP and VMC, I just used VMC once for a single test to see if this bug occurs with other dll mods as well, so I can exclude broken gamefiles to be the reason for this.
Apart from that, the whole issue has absolutely nothing to do with VMC. I don't use it at all, I don't want to compare anything. Please let's ignore that I even mentioned it.

1.) Yes, that's correct. The CS window won't refresh, which is the most obvious bug and very easy to replicate with a new game.
I replicated it with dozens of CP-only games now! (no other mods, no VMC, no alterations of CP. in fact I even downloaded CP several times anew)

There are other issues which I think are directly connected to this bug, including happiness level not refreshing after trading luxuries (until the next turn), religion-symbols in city banners not refreshing after loading a save (until the next turn) and a few other things I may have forgotten right now.
But I suppose when the CS-window will work again, these things will also be solved.

2.) It doesn't necessarily crashes, it just tends to crash more often (maybe 20-25%).
Discovering this is only a side effect of having started dozens of new games with more CS than standard, so it's easier to find a CS to try clicking the war/peace-buttons and see if my issue was solved.
Btw. I haven't increased the number of CS drastically, but on a duell map where the standard is 4, I usally tried 6 and so on..

3.) Not exactly. Religions are saved correctly between save/ load, it's only the city banners that don't show the religious symbols after loading! The tooltip however works, it will tell you exactly how many followers each city accomodates, but the symbols won't appear until your next turn!
At the beginning of the next turn, you will get the "your city has become religious"-notification for every single city and the symbols appear.

The same goes for happiness: Trading luxuries will actually increase your happiness, but it won't be reflected in the total happiness-counter until your next turn.

Just as clicking the make peace-button will actually make peace with a CS (you hear the sound and get the peace notification in the background), but it won't show up in the CS window until you close and open it again!


Conclusion: the game mechanics work just fine, it's only the interface-stuff that seems to be broken and doesn't refresh accordingly!
(That said, I do not use EUI while doing my tests)

I hope everything is clear now!

 

[Greggy08]

yes is correct and yes i'm using that EUI and i'm not playing anything else like CSD or C4DF


and just if you need to know i play the game in english so that can't be the problem

Don't know if it is a bug but Authority give back 1 gold and Sovereignty 1 culture. Wasn't the contrary in previous version?

it was changed some time ago because Authority was always the first choice (which it still is, so good work )

Goddess of Festivals pantheon bonus disappeared once I founded a religion. I had two unique luxuries and lost 4 faith and 4 culture once religion was founded.

I'm playing as Netherlands, if it matters.

Did you get the bonus back later? Because with the global effect pantheons I think you have to have it in a majority of your cities to gain the effect. And naturally your religion and your pantheon counts as two different 'religions', so it is possible that founding your religion put you in a situation where you don't have a majority of either of those 'religions'.

 

[Greggy08]

i tried to delete every other mod but CP and CBP and they still don't work because the game crash after the "configuring game data" screen

also is the .279 the last version of the game???


and it crash with only CP too so i think CBP is not the problem


do you need the log??

 

[scientic]

Playing with the latest CP,CBP,CSD (9-9) + EUI,C4DF and More Luxs.

I'm unable to negotiate peace with England (proposes seems accepted, but nothing changes, it remains war. Even if i accept their controproposal for peace nothing changes).
I'm doing something wrong or is it a bug?

Save attached

It doesn't seem to be just peace deals, either. From what I can tell, you can't make any deals that affect the Diplomacy of another Civ (ie, can't make peace when you have City State allies, can't make Civs declare war on each other).

This was fixed in the 9-9v2. Make sure you are using that version (is savegame compatible).

do you need the log??

Make sure you have logging enabled, and yes, once the game has crashed, post your database.log and lua.log files.

Seems like a really inconsistent way for that to work. I get how it functions this way, but seeing all these improved luxuries go dead for the next 60 turns until my religion spreads to a majority of cities makes me question why it functions this way. And thank Zoroaster I'm not near another religion or I might never see the benefits of that early Stonehenge again :/
