I go to play Civ 5 on my custom Map and before this new patch it was working fine, after the patch came in, when i go to start a new game all the civs are now alphabeticaly listed in their leaders names, i go to play as Denmark, it loads Arabia because in my scenario Arabia comes first alphabetically, so i thought it is probably the listing so i change the civs listings with their leaders first instead of country, so this time Greece is first because alexanders first, i go to play denmark, it loads up greece, its as if im not picking any civ at all and is loading who ever is first listed in the scenario, the game works fine and i have played it but i have to go into WB and swap who i want to play as to be first in line.

Download it here and see for yourself, is their any way to fix it ?

Thankyou J ! I didnt realise about this thread, but at least i know that their is a patch coming out for it ASAP.

All the custom maps and mods are FUBAR'd.

Anyone at Firaxis care about this? The mods and scenarios are what make the game worthwhile to so many of us.

Someone please help?

thanks.. missed the last posts.

 

[MAGBaxter]

Can someone please say if the patch to fix WB is released.

 

[SHaW1986]

not yet

I assume they will release it before the weekend, or it wouldn't be quick anymore.

For the time being, I've uploaded a small script fix which will address the civ selection issue if you want to try it out.

Same prob with "player 1" and odd civ selection screens (text missing etc), though i just run usual maps (pangea, whatever, not actual scenarios).

 

[SHaW1986]

anything new on this issue?

 

[The_J]

You mean besides the hotfix a couple of posts above ?

 

[Baleur]

STILL the same old issue of my own civ always being refered to as "Player 1" ingame. Singleplayer even.. Dont understand why..
I even deleted the entire XML folders and verified game cache just in case a patch failed to update that relevant file, yet it didnt make any difference.
Custom maps or standard, no difference.
