Caveman 2 Cosmos (ideas/discussions thread)

really, noooo. lol . . .
Nothing has proven to be a solution. Oddly, her older computer is handling things better than the newer one and I suspect that it's the latest direct X having some troubles with the cruder version of gamebryo that the civIV core uses.

She could reduce graphics settings, if shes running out of video ram.

She's been trying a lot of things there. The latest thing she's trying, now that she's down to lowest graphic quality (with at least unit animations so she has units looking like they should be) is to turn down the resolution to the minimum res. Maybe it will help. The jury is still out.

Has she tried to re-install the DX9.0c (iirc) from the Civ IV BtS CDs? I had to do that when I 1st got the comp I'm using. You probably know that the newer DX versions sometimes over write the older versions or change paths. If you re-install the older it refreshes the old while not bothering the new.
 
Aren't these the same flag or am i seeing something??

did anyone change "Broken Arrow" leader, to a different leaderhead yet?? thx. . . SO
It seems like Broken Arrow hero has correct button, and other unit should have different button.
Looks like they seem to have two different buttons:
<Button>Art/hero/Ashina_Jiesheshuai.dds</Button>
<Button>Art/hero/Broken_Arrow.dds</Button>
I looked in worldbuilder and it looks like Ashina Jiesheshuai and Broken Arrow really have same button just with different names.

As for flags no idea why English and Spanish empire have same flags.
I chose random English leader and it has proper flag.

I suggest cleanup of mod - something fishy is going on your side.

I think its hard not to install that when you install from disks, which IS what we did so I assume she had. So far reducing the resolution is working but we're only a little ways past the normal crash threshold at the moment so how effective it is remains to be seen. We'll possibly give that another go next because I've begun to suspect it has something to do with that.

I had that problem on my old XP system. It was caused by One of the settings in the top right "Options - Graphics screen". Animals display the flag of the user instead of their own.

Changing that setting corrected it. It was either "Animations Frozen", "Effects Disabled" or "Low Resolution Textures". Can not remember which.
 
Can you add buttons for @Dancing Hoskuld vicinity autobuilds? They all are in bottom of regular buildings file.
They now look like sourdough in tech tree.
If I remember correctly they all have the same button because they are a class of autobuilds just like crime buildings are. They are only there as a game mechanic.

Well button could at least show their purpose.
They can have same button.
 
So I added an extra Civ in WB on a different continent to me but the probelm is now that they are contactable as if the system believes I have met them..
(possible because I think added one of their unist near me)
In any case can my svae be edited so that I "forget" them?
