Civ III PowerBar Trainer for v1.29f

[Suleiman Pasha]

Hi

I ran the program as u said, I clicked the globe button but it still was trying to install something using microsoft front page i cancelled that. Then a golden box appered on the top of the scree which i am sure is the PB. I started the game and I have pressed load a like a thousand times now but it doesnt show any of my cities. Am i doing anything wrong or do i have to install some mod or something for this? How do I use PB plssssss someone tell meeeeee,

Thanx for ur earlier reply spider

It depends what happens when you pressed load, but it might be that you over looked the fact that PB only works with version 1.29f, which was in the read me file. If you're not you if you have it, Download the latest patch at http://www.civfanatics.net/downloads/civ3/patch/Civ3v129f.exe and try it again. Make sure you click load after the game is opened.

Yes I have a 1.29 version. I had installed the update before running the game. I even uninstalled the patch and installed it again but still the pb doesnt seem to work. Whenever I press the load button it all the fields remain blank it doesnt show any of my cities or anything. Also everytime I try opening PB for some reason windows installer window pops uo and then it tries to configure with Ms Frontpage which i dont have and then says the installation failed. Does anyone know why this is happening??Any suggestions?

First off many thanks to SpiderZord for updating the Power bar. I do have a question, in the older version (1.17f) was there a button to Auto Complete for Improvements much like there is a Auto Enlighten for Techs? Or maybe I'm just thinking of one of the other programs. Anyhoo... thanks again SpiderZord

I'm in modern times and every time I click the donate button to build something in all my cities the only thing that gets built over and over again is the mass transit system.

 

[SpiderZord]

I made progress this weekend on tiles - my new tile class is working and using an array pointer just like cities now. This will make the map reveal feature much quicker, not to mention the terrain improvements I have in mind...

Everyone that has reported bugs - thanks for the feedback! I'm planning some debug time shortly. Stay tuned.

i have upgraded to civ3 1.29f, where do i find an exe for powerbar. i will download an early version if that is what it takes to use the attachments. i just dont have an exe for powerbar. or am i way off base??

 

[SpiderZord]

I just uploaded version 1.6.3 of Powerbar. ..

This fixes two major bugs - a city index problem preventing some cities from being listed and the problem with the donate button switching the production to a building project instead of the selected unit. A minor bug with the food box value for larger cities was also fixed. Another major change was made in the Map reveal feature - it now utilizes a new tile class which uses tile array pointers which is much faster and more reliable.

As always, let me know of any problems!

The new tile class is coming along... look for a major update again soon. (Including clear pollution, clear all jungle, clear forrest, add roads, etc in city radius of selected city... )

The update can be found as an attachment on my original post found here:

Spiderzord,

Idownloaded your latest 1.6.3 updated powerbar but I get two error messages:

Error getting mapsize
Run-time error '11' : division by zero

I am running WinXP and the latest 1.29f patch on Civ3.

Any suggestions?

Ditto here. For anyone having this problem I am attaching the 1.6.2 version to my post in case you happen to have overwritten your old .exe with no backup.

 

[SpiderZord]

Thanks Goofball and Mantis - I thought I trapped the map size sufficiently...

Is this an XP issue or are others getting the error under other operating systems? Please let me know!

I will finish trapping the mapsize and repost until I can determine the problem.

 

[Lemming]

i have the same error messages with WinXP and V1.29f

 

[SpiderZord]

WinXP users - please try 1.6.4... If this is an XP issue, this version should work, but will disable the map reveal feature (until I can fix it).

 

[raybl]

where do i get ver 1.6.4 ??

 

[Tatsu_kao]

im using win98 and got the same error

 

[SpiderZord]

I spent some time on my neighbor's XP computer last night and found the problem with the map size code. The new code should work with all operating systems.

PowerBar Version Update

Thanks storm6296. Look for a major interface design change with my next update (I'm going to roll the version to 2.0.0 because of all changes included). I have designed the interface to allow AUTOSUPPRESS/AUTOCOMPLETE options at the Tribe and City Levels. For example, Research is suppressed on the individual tribe level, while Production and FillFoodBox options are stored on the individual city level. Set a city to build a worker and toggle the auto settings for production and fillfoodbox - in 10 turns you have 10 workers with no intervention...
I have also added a suppress production option at the city level to suppress production of everything, buildings only, units only or list only - where list is a custom list of any combination of units and buildings... so you can suppress just ICBMs and tactical nukes for conventional warfare only games...

Look for the update soon

I see 1.6.5 is working for Lemming - any other feedback?

This may sound stupid, but what should I download exactly for the patch to work properly with civ3 1.29 ?

In this thread there are many corrections and updates, what should I download exactly ?
