[MOD] Fall from Heaven II

[[to_xp]Gekko]

thanx for the reply Kael, I guess I'll turn off time victory then.

also, I see that like in BTS, there's a technology giving access to perm alliances, but the option for it is turned off by default... I always switch it on in BTS, is there any issue with perm alliances in FFH2?

 

[Gulzaga]

Been quiet on here lately... any news on when the next version is coming out?

 

[Broken Hawk]

If I recall correctly...August 15th.

Well, if you have on perm alliances and vassel states, domintion victory can come pretty quick, but it works just fine.

thanx for the reply Nikis-Knight I love to make allies with other civs instead of slaughtering them, I'm playing a game with perm alliances on right now but so far no friends, just that vampire girl wanting to feast on me

I also turned on require complete kills cuz it makes some backstabbing strategies a little less overpowered imho, is there any issues with this? like for example it didn't work out very well with the revolution mod (BtS) but I don't see any possible problems with FFH2...

Hey everyone,
I've just recently discovered the Fall From Heaven mod and I just wanted to congratulate the creator(s)/contributors to what is a rather excellent game.

I do have one question. Perhaps it's my crappy computer however generally the game runs really well but on several occasions I had the game crash and I get that screen where

"Microsoft encountered a problem and needs to close and then asks if I want to send a report"

does anyone else get these and if so, is there any way to prevent/debug.
I've updated to BTS 3.17 and downloaded the most recent ffh2 patches.

Thanks so much for any advice and sorry if this is an annoying rookie question.

There is a known issue in the current version that can cause CtD's (crashes to desktop) if the game tries to spawn any sect of flies units (which dont exist anymore). That will be fixed in 0.33.

seZereth and Loki were good enough to create a facebook group for Fall from Heaven. You can join the group here: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=7944426118

I will be using the group to send out notification when new versions are available (major versions, not every little patch). So if you would like to be notified when 0.33, 0.34, etc is up and available join the facebook group.

Are you no longer going to use this thread for such announcements? If so, I don't see the point.

I definitly well. But the thread requires that you keep coming back and checking. The nice thing about any newslist service (like the ability in facebook) is I can notify without you having to come back.

For people that come and read the thread religiously its not a huge deal, but more casual players should find it handy.

I was really excited to play this, but it crashed when it was loading. I chose my leader, and a few moments after, "Sorry, an error was detected." Any idea of what happened?

If something like this happens, it´s really necessary that you specify your system configuration, which patches and versions you have (bts and ffh). otherwise people can´t really know what´s going on

 

[fish6]

Sorry for the lack of info. I have BTS with patch 3.17.

vista or xp? anything else which you have modifiied, anything unusual? can you start bts without problems, etc. ?

 

[warhead66]

Hmm this might just be me who's an idiot.. i'm pretty new to Fall from heaven (just finished age of ice, freaking brilliant)

well now i've downloaded and installed this FfH II and i'm kind of expecting to see a pre made map with a story like the other one or is this not the case?
(wasn't sure if this was a troubleshooting question or not)

whoah.. the same thing happens for me

I have bts 3.17 Vista quad core nvidia 9600 i have the exact same problem with the warhammer game except there i can play for one turn before it crashes

if you have a sollution it would be heavily appreciated!

 

[Skitters]

presumably you have the latest FFH2 patch too? (can be found on the first page)

I think FFH2 032 was originally built around BTS 3.13, so as well as general tweaks to gameplay, Kael also had to patch so that FFH2 was compatable with BTS 3.17

no, only Age of Ice is about a Scenario, where we told a specific story. The Main FfH II mod right now is about the World after the Age of Ice and how the Civs recover and struggle for dominance.
We will create 3 Campaigns with pre set Scenarios, when the core game is fully fleshed out. There we will tell the story of this age from 3 different perspectives. until then, have fun in random games

well i have 0.32 which is the latest as far as i can see.. ? i'm redownloading and reinstalling 3.17, found some bugs in it in general.. think i got it from a bad site or something

1. Make sure you are running BtS 3.17 (you can make sure it is installed correctly by going into Advanced -> About this Build from the main menu).

2. Make sure you are running Fall From Heaven 0.32 with patch "l" (linked in the first post). Base Fall from Heaven 0.32 and patch "l" are 2 seperate downloads.

3. If you still have the crash after checking both of those try disabling movies and see if it works.
