ViSa Latest Version Download

[Alondin]

Maxbjr,
The MAF comes from a bug inside Warlords, that is aggravated by the
large save files ViSa generates. However, some wonderful programmers
have FIXED THE MAF bug on Version 3.0!!! So, wait a week and
you should be happy. Well, happier!

I thought that's what the problem was. I was wondering/confused why the MAF never happened on my old computor w/ Windows XP, but started happening with my new computor w/ Vista. Anyway I thought I should let people know about it, in case I found a Warlords/ViSa problem running it on Windows Vista.

It seems the newer computers get the MAF more often and faster....don't ask me why as I am not the programmer here

The MAF isn't fixed, it is in the Firaxis EXE which no modder has access to....we have a workaround by Nev.

cant we just all sign some petition so firaxis gives us the stuff to repair it.
i bet there are lots of guys out here who really want to do it and for free to!

WGW,
That's been tried. Doesn't seem to work.
TA Firehawk is technically correct, what we have is a somewhat inelegant
work around, but if it doesn't blow up I consider it 'fixed'!

You're welcome. It's cool to see that the Hyborians are still in it since they are what started me on the road to Civ modding over a year ago.

i really cant get any of the downloads to work,
the one on the vista site died twice during download (some hours each).
One file was corrupted (could be me) and the third link in the main post doesnt work (404).

Can I get this mod somewhere or not?

I'm sad to say I didnt pick this mod up before v3, realy great. I do how ever seem to have run into a problem doing my first game. After around like 200 turns, I opened up the foreign advisor page to see if anyone had anything willing to trade to me. But after a few seconds the page just vanished and I could see the normal game screen, but the game was paused, like it usaly it is when you have opened up one of the advisor pages. I tried to alt-tab out to windows and open the game again, and there it was the advisor page was back, for a magnificent 5 seconds, and is vanished again. Now I could keep minimizing and reopening it agan and do my works in short period of times at a time, but that does seem beyond my patience. If anyone have either encountered this problem, or know a solution, basicly any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Not sure what is wrong with your computer, but it works fine on mine so it must be something specific to your system, not ViSa.

Sounds like a graphical driver problem with any of the graphics in that screen..you might wanna tweak around on your allocated video memory or lower graphical settings in the game

check the FAQ about the MAF guide..

with Windows Vista, you are doomed!!! Vista enhanced the MAF like crazy! you can't even play warlords large 12 civs a complete game and already running into a maf without mod..at least not with graphical settings at high level, didn't test low settings...so any mod, especially ViSa will be shot down by the MAF bug

 

[maxbjr]

Actually with Vista, a duo core pent 2.28g processor & 4Mg RAM, ViSa and Warlords in general works great. The AI's turn time is about 8-12 secs at the most. The thing is, you can't play with more then a standard map and 10 Civs or a small map & 15 CIVs, or you'll get to the 12K limit on saves that will trigger a MAF.

so it doesn't work great!! I tested the game with vista on my CPU with only 2 gigs RAM. that the speed is good i don't talk about performance.it goes MAF pretty simple and early in game. i tested it with large map and 12civs. Without ViSa!! just default warlords goes MAF..even earlier then with ViSa mod loaded, for whatever reason. this behaviour might be different on your 4gigabyte CPU..but anyway, i like to play large/huge games with many civs..and since i go MAF while still having enough free RAM, i really hope firaxis will fix it. but that's why i play on winXP..can play alot bigger games without MAF then on win2000 even huge games with 30civs
