Hi, I have the current patch and im running under steam. I have an issue wherein my units will go into a generic state unless selected. ie my settler for the current civ will look like a generic settler, but then when I select it it turns into my racial settler. It doesn't appear to happen for all units, but its giving me a major head ache... ug, any suggestions?
 
Turn "Frozen Animations" off. The lazy unitmakers often don't bother to change the frozen animation state. I still turn that option on in the lategame to save time.
 
thank you but it is off... its not horrible actually, and i can play the game, but props to anyone who has other ideas

The one in "options" menu? Do your rivers flow?
 
just checked, yea they do... its not as bad as it used to be actually, but It's still somewhat agitating. When I tried to load up fallFurther, the effect was much worse than base FFH2. Every unit would switch graphics... now its only settlers (that ive seen)
 
The problem you are describing is exactly what happens when Frozen Animations is turned on, as Lone Wolf said.

From the main menu click "ADVANCED", then select "OPTIONS", on the Options window that opens select the "Graphics" tab, then find the option "Animations Frozen" on the right and make sure that it does not have an X in the box in front of it. If there is an X there, remove the X by clicking on it. Then click the "Exit" button.
 
Do the elohim have unit graphics different than base civ4 for archers and scouts? if so... shoot...

So far, no. Some new Elohim graphics are going to be added in the next patch, though.
