Indeed it has. And if you don't see a significant speed drop I will keep it in as it makes debugging crashes far easier.

I have been using it also, i haven't had any problems, and i am in the Industrial Era now. Speed if maybe .0018 slower but thats about it so far on Epic.
 
No crashes so far. I have not noticed any slowdown on Epic either. Current turn 1660BC.

Maybe I should start a new game tomorrow as the CTDs are more common early game?

Repeatable CTD on end turn.
I could not reproduce the crash but that save has huge positive or negative values for espionage in several cities which could definitely cause lots of weird stuff.
Not sure what the actual source for that is.
I tried that again with latest revision (r1386) with recalculation before end turn, but CTD anyway.
Though it makes minidump now.
Hopefully that can help.

Minidumps help a lot as they tell me the exact part of the code the crashes happen in.
Unfortunately I am not at my modding computer for the next two weeks, so I can only investigate it afterwards.
 
I get plagued by CTDs every now and then; unfortunately no repeatable ones.
Just for kicks and our Coding wizards i attached the logs of the last three ctd.
Once in a while the game just stucks, of course without any logging. ;)

Using the newest DLL (SVN or the one at the end of the patch thread) will usually generate crash minidumps in the BtS exe folder which give a good chance at finding the causes of unrepeatable CTDs (it shows the exact part of the code in which the crash happens).
 
Oh, i didn't pay attention to this particular feature.
Anyway, here it is (last one of course, according to log3.)
 
Achtung! Just saw there was a whole thread devoted to V19 stuff :( Moved my post.
 
These oddities are with a SVN version from 27th Dec but are in there far longer:

Revolution won't account for the added interest from the world bank to my gold. I'm making -100k a turn in gold and still my gold reserves rise due to interest, revolution doesn't see this and I'm in "Financial Trouble" (ok, technically I am, but the effect should be lowered while the reserves still rise).

The displayed defense rating of a city is way off most of the time, you only see the "real" one when bombarding the city with artillery/bombers.

How can I save edited "executive summaries" or revolution watches ? The save button in their respective edit modes doesn't seem to work.
 
I think I may be missing something very obvious or just being a complete noob but I downloaded the newest version of C2C because it looks like a badass mod and copied it into the BTS MODS folder. I go into CIV4 ->advanced->load a mod->cavemen2cosmos. Everything looks like its working fine, the game starts back up and it says in the upper right corner that C2C is running as well as under 'about' this build. However, when I start a game, any game, its normal BTS and i'm bonerkilled. Is there something I'm not doing right or do the gods just not want me to spend the next 4 months playings this mod?

There should be a (red) shortcut in the same area as the Assets folder, put that on your desktop, and see if it will load from there. Make sure its the shortcut and not the icon.
 
Thanks, I got that sorted out but now I have another problem. Sorry to keep bothering you...but, there is one error where the screen keeps bugging out when trying to customize the game - I can fix this by alt-tabbing over and over- so that one is just annoying. But the game never fully loads after I click on launch. It freezes at about a third of the way through loading....maybe I need to set my graphics lower or something? Help would be much appreciated, thankyou.

Which v19 are you using? SVN? Or main download?

Computer specs please. Graphics Options setting in game?

JosEPh :)
 
the main download...do I need a patch or something?
I had graphics at the highest but when I tried starting a game I realized it froze while 'Int graphics' so I set them to low but it still froze.
My specs are an old laptop: dual-core at 2.ghz and 3gig ram with the built in graphics card.
thankyou.

That is essentially the same as my rig and yet I run C2C on Huge maps with no problems whatsoever.:confused:

Does the built in graphics card support shader 2.0 or better?

Also in the patch thread is post #94. Has a link to the latest patch for v19 vanilla. Get it and patch to see if it helps.

I crashed b4 after like an hour of play, said failed to allocate video memory, consider turning down your graphics settings. I have 6970 card 1gb, pentium i7, 64gb win7, 8gb ram.

I have paging units when non visible off, and paging animation off.

Autosaves are off.

I had graphics settings high high high AA on 2, 1920 x 1080 resolution, animation on etc, global buildings are on, high detail terrain was off i think.

While I think of it, I find it really hard to read all the little text in the game on this resolution, but all the lower ones look ********. Is there a way to alter the font size of everything? Larger buttons would be nice too..
Also should I unpack the graphics/videos etc, doesn't it help the caching or something.

I applied the v19 DLL fix too btw. Let me see if I can find the crash report thingy.

- Have you guys seen Zulu's custom art for ROM - AND ? Some of it is really cool maybe you should incorporate some of it - like the individual looking civ specific units - such as axes, galleons etc.

Oh and another thing, will having c2c in the same folder as my ROM - AND mod cause any problems?

I dont understand this question? ALL of the art in ROM and AND are in C2C:confused:

I dont know anymore, but it shouldn't be a problem, as far as i know, i only have ONE mod in my folder, C2C, thats it.:p
