city view bug

[Specialforces]

i am running civ g&k on dx 9 and when i go to city view i cannot manage the citizens in the city. When i click the citizen on he disappears all together where it use to lock the citizen but doesn't. At times the citizen will show up as an unemployed citizen while other times just disaappears all together.

Is there a setting i should be using to make the city citizens to function.

I also know i need to upgrade my graphics drivers but the intel updates do not want to update to anything i have currently but that should have no affect on the city management.

Any help would be appreciated

i know my graphics card is out of date but my updates from intel keep telling me i have the most recent already yet steam keeps telling me it is out of date... who is right...

also i am having problems with dx 9. The city citizens suddenly disappear when i click them on... the position shows up as empty black circles but the citizen seems to function as if it is there .. not sure if it is locked or not.. but appears to be... is there a fix for this problem in dx 9. Everything else seems to work ok.. except for the odd red dotes that show up on the map.

Any help would be appreciated to make dx 9 work with the citizen allocation

Check to see what kind of city you are trying to manage the citizens in.

If it is one of your core cities, you should be able to change the city focus (gold income, research, culture, production, etc.) and micromanage the citizens.

However, if it is a puppeted city, it will be set to automatically focus on gold income and won't let you change the focus or micromanage the citizens.

Happy New Year!

I guess it's a laptop, yeah? Then both could be true: Your driver is outdated, but the laptop manufacturer hasn't made Intel's latest driver ready for this laptop.

Does the problem also appear in Dx11?

yes it is a laptope gateway and it appears the drivers are not up todate... and the problems with the dx 9 just started to be a problem while dx 11 has the driver issues not being uptodate with streaks in resources looking like train tracks.

not sure what is going on with citizen issues. which was not an issue before

The last patch from steam took care of the graphics issues for me ( the streaking of resources ). Have you tried varifying the local files under steam? You should do this until it says all files successfully varified. It may take several or more attempts.
