Ooohh, thanks Gazebo. Belated Valentines to all

VP is my Valentine.

I still wish cata could have 4 movement. Honestly every time I'm one movement short of punching an archer or catapault that I could have killed with a regular knight I want to quit playing Byz. I feel like if I could just build regular knights, I would.

Cover on Cataphract dear god

This is something I've noticed on the last patch too, Theocratic Rule is a really common founder choice for the first AI. Its a solid belief, so it isn't a bad thing, and I probably wouldn't have noticed the pattern if I wasn't trying to play China. Also the light nerf to China seems to work, she is more reasonable now, no more already leading in everything by classical era.

Also cover on cataphracts, good grief. I know people notice the lack of movement for flanking but seriously just stick on of them on a jungle hill and watch. There are no melee units until renaissance that can attack into it, and arrows just bounce off. Byz is really good on high difficulties given how pious the AI has become

Theres an issue for some reason I have no request peace for some reason the C4 isn't working.

 

[peterw1987]

After this latest patch, some of the Civ UB or UI is not shown in the Civ selection menu.

I have not tried if the UI or UB is viable in play, because I dont want risking wasting my time just to find that the UB is error in mid game.

Is it just my bad installation or anyone else also having this problem?

I asked a civ not to settle near me, they agreed, and then settled right next to me like 3 turns later anyway.

I just posted it on github. They don't seem available for construction, though they're still in the civpedia.

Nevermind. Mine fixed already.
Just delete all MODS folder manually, and reinstall VP.
Weird, cause I never had to do this when installing previous patch

Huh? I already tried that. Even got rid of ui_bc1... Suppose I'll download it again too.

I am not sure. First time I install standard VP with EUI (which resulting the problem).
I reinstall the VP( but this time I try the most bottom option , VP with 43 civ +EUI), and no more problem.

Which option do you pick when installing?

I first noticed it with 43 civs and tried again on regular VP. New download and it's still happening. Weird that it started working for you.

 

[tu_79]

That may happen when installing different versions in a row. Things like '(1a) Community Patch' and '(1b) Community Patch' is what causes the problem. The second file is almost the same, and you are not intended to have both, but the automatic installer does not remove the old one. You don't need to completely remove MOD folder, just those related to VP inside the folder.

 

[Gazebo]

Is there an issue with the version or is it just bad installs?

[saamohod]

Confirmed. No money for founding a city as Carthage. Also no UB for Cartage in Civipedia.

My install is working as far as I can tell, only played China so far though

 

[Enrico Swagolo]

Also no UB for Theodora, UB for Gustavus, UI Maya, etc displayed, neither in pre-game UI nor Civilopedia. Something broke in this version, especially concerning some G&K only civs.
