FfH2 0.22 Cometic Issues

[arcaner]

Cosmetic enhancement request. It would be nice if the mana in the new bar were ordered by school/tower.

Arendal Phaedra's welcome text is missing a "to"

... you do well to pay homage (to) the summer throne

Just wondering : is it normal that some Pedia pictures are missing for Heroes ? I often get a pink square instead of the picture below the animation. Some entries, like Thyphoid Mary, are even empty (no anim, no description, no history, just the button)

It does not seem to cause trouble in the game, so I wonder if it's a bug or just missing stuff delayed to next version.

My game is 1.61 patched and I don't use any no-cd.

One thing--I vitalized a tundra/forest square into a grassland/forest, but the forest remained the "snowy forest" graphic.

 

[mervvyn]

there are definitely heaps of gaps in the pedia entries and tips, but there shouldn't be any pink squares - could you show us a screenshot?

 

[much2much]

This is good for you as the bonuses are applied to this modified number so if you are running pacifism you will wind up with a higher gpppt than if you it was added to the pacifism bonus and then applied.

Yeah something related to that. I had three spirit mana in one of my games, and I saw the result of the increased GPP points but when you hover the GPP meter, it doesnt show the increase. (Its only noted in the total GPP per turn)

I located the source of the bug : it comes from some French version text (no idea about which one). If I switch to English, everything is ok.

Here is what I get in French version for Thyphoid Mary :

and what I get for the War Machine :

In 2.022f, the installation built over a mana node is sized enormously, blocking vision completely of that square, and almost overlapping over the other squares that it borders.

I find it distracting to the point of annoying me enough to nearly play a non-mage reliant race

Will edit with screenshot in a few hours when I get home.

Otherwise, the game looks lovely!

Interesting, Im going to have to think about how to fix that for foreign language versions.

I get no interface for the Balseraphs. All other races seem fine. Ctrl/Alt - I does nothing?

 

[xanaqui42]

The strategy text for Pahlanx, Phalanx (Grigori), etc. should work fine for this unit as well (the text is now pretty generic).

 

[MisterBenn]

I'd prefer if with the new mana types summary, the zero values were filtered out to keep things tidy.

I know the cause of the problem : accents ! The bugged entries are Sphéner, Mardèro, Eurabashi le Dragon Doré, Stéphanos, Marie Typhoïde and Rosier le Déchu
It's really strange because there is not any problem with units, buildings, promotions, well everything else, if there is an accent in the name...
And the problem is present in French and in English too.

Point 2 : the pink picture. Don't know exactly why, but there is a common point between the problematic pedia entries : if the hero name is made of 3 words or more, there is a pink picture : "la machine de guerre", "Eurabashi le Dragon Doré", "meshabber de dis", "yvail l'elfe sylvain", etc.
Like the first problem, this happens only for heroes, the others entries haven't any problem (see "éléphant de guerre"...)

I can fix the problem with the accent (by removing them, not perfect but efficient to read pedia until a full fix), but I don't know how to fix the pink square problem (it's impossible to use only 2 words).

 

[Keldan]

Sorry, I mistake for point 2. The problem is simpler : if the French name is exactly the same as the English name (sample : Valin Phanuel) there is no problem. If the name is not the same (The War Machine / La Machine de Guerre), there is a problem.
I guess the picture is linked to the entry with the hero name...

 

[Civkid1991]

not sure if you noticed this over lapping
(see blue arrow)

 

[it-ogo]

I think somewhere from ver. 0.16 the main background picture (with falling angel) was stretched horizontally. So the face of an angel is evidently deformed now (may be that means suffering?). I feel a light discomfort with this, don't know about others.

Ok, a request. In my Sheiman game when the Avatar of wrath came and later on when Armageddon struck, I must say I was not impressed.

There was a popup but nothing more, all the sudden some troops were gone, that is all. For an event that had a big effect on the world there should be more.

A summary comes to mind. A log that would tell the player how many troops on the globe deserted to serve the avatar or how many troops died when Armageddon struck. Add the amount millions of ppl that died in the cities, etc.
You could represent it in unit classes 'X archers, Y maceman, Z dragons died in miserable suffering'

Make it what it is, A DISASTER! A cosmic storm! A tide of (un)divine powers! Something that fells BIG. For now it is only a strategical event.

Also, shouldn't the Armageddon destroy improvements?

After initally installing FfH2022f.exe and then patching with FfH2022h.exe I have much pinkness: all the civ leaders pictures, mana nodes, buttons at the bottom of the screen, pictures of units in bottom left box etc.

I then copied all the files from my FfH2021 installation that were missing from the FfH2022 folder and most of the pinkness went away, but I stall have some techs represented by pink boxes.

I have read that the pink box problem is caused by installing the patch without installing the whole mod. However I downloaded FfH2022f.exe from the link that said "download mod here" and i can't find any just plain FfH2022.exe.

Also, when I start the game I have no interface and can't get one to appear until i CTR-ALT-DEL out of the game and then go back into it: interface appears as by magic.

Have I installed the game incorrectly? Should I have somehow used FfH2022f.exe to patch my FfH2021 installation? I'm really not good with all the developer stuff, I just love to play!

Bannor still have TXT_KEY_UNIQUE_BUILDINGS_NO

EDIT: on civ-selecting screen in new game creation

FfH2022f.exe is only a patch for the 0.22 version, NOT for 0.21. You have to download the whole load [~300+MB] and then install the patch. 0.21 and 0.22 are completely different things from the game-engine perspective.
