[MrPopov]

Easier said than done for STEAM users...

Ouch, yeah, sorry about that. I'd hope you could make your case to Steam tech support and gain access to the Steam v3.02 patch?

 

[Solver]

No. I am a Steam user (not for Firaxis games, though), and my biggest complaint about it remains the same as 3 years ago - the inability to access previous patch versions.

I got the v3.02 patch in this site in the DL section:

Well that sucks BUT, I have to give Steam and D2D this much, they both had the patch before us retail users...a first, as far as I know, where the direct downloaders got a patch before the retail users! IF this trend continues they'll get the REAL patch before everyone else as well.

Yeah, cool for us retailers but it won't work for the direct downloaders.

Are games cheaper if you get them via Steam? What did they charge for BtS?

Will running this file actually down-patch (or what's the correct word) your game to 3.02 if you already have 3.03 installed?

 

[Solver]

It's 29.95$ for BtS on Steam. Whether it's cheaper depends, I suppose, on your location. There are both advantages and disadvantages to buying that way, anyhow.

I don't think so, you may get lucky but your best bet is to go about it the painful way of uninstalling it, reinstalling it, and updating back up to v3.02.

 

[Wodan]

I just tried it... said you had to uninstall v.3.03 first.

Would it be possible to look at the infinite loop bug(s)?

I have traced it specifically to UNITAI_COUNTER

 

[Solver]

If you look at the code

Reminds me of an old joke about inefficient british local councils. [local, politically elected persons - who do not represent the local popullace, who vote them in, only the party they support.]

NewsFlash. "There is reported to be a large hole on the M6 near Glasgow."

"But locals are told not to worry, as officials are looking in to it.".

How can I tell if I do have this installed? It does not seem to extract.

 

[KrikkitTwo]

Since Corporation maintenance is now seperate from Inflation, I'd suggest increasing their cost

perhaps base cost 8 (from 5)
and resource cost 2 (from 1)

Check the time stamp of your CivGameCore.DLL in Assets vs. the one in the Mod's Zip file. If the same you're good to go.

Solver, AI vassals created as colonies are still renouncing their founders in the latest version. 2 out of 2 so far....

I created several colonies using Solver's latest patch, and none of them declared renounced me. Is this affecting only AI-created vassals? Or am I just that good?
