Did a clean install and graphics issue has not returned. Played about 1 hour and tried to start new game several times from inside current game. Looks like it was linked to the patch update & old files not working.

Derek - I don't think it had anything to do with an old Sov. There were no pre-existing files in Units or Race folders after the update. I created him new both times. As a matter of fact after playing the game for about an hour the graphics glitch was back. Here are the files from the new version. https://www.dropbox.com/s/u2emfndhtmblw0v/Faction_Jedi.xml <a hre

[quote who="Derek Paxton" reply="2" id="3251151"] A few things to try: 1. In your game options deselect the "Use mods" option if it is selected/highlighted. If that doesn't work: 2. Rename your "../My Documents/My Games/Fallen Enchantress/" directory to "../My Documents/My Games/Fallen Enchantress.old/" Please let us know if either of those effects your issue.[/quote] 1. Deselecting "use mods" had no effect. 2. Renaming

That's why so many people have problems when they start a nnew account and don't ask to have their accounts merged.

[quote who="JMiddleton" reply="10" id="3250018"]Manually fighting every battle can be tedious, especially against weaker opponents but the standard order of battle places the weakest units in front. It would be nice if the game was smart enough to distinguish between melee and ranged units - placing the ranged units in the rear and the strongest melee units in front.[/quote] Good news, Frogboy posted this today. We didn't get the ability to place our units, but looks l

When attempting the Deadly Dungeon quest with a party of six, my Sov was hidden behind the dungeon walls. The walls don't actually stop him from doing stuff, just wierd. It is reproducable, so here's the file save: https://www.dropbox.com/s/qj1rvf2u3hywzn3/Jim_983_Deadly%20Dungeon.EleSav

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="21" id="3249283"] Quoting scifi1950, reply 17 I think Lord Xia has hit the nail on the head. I may not be as hardcore as some of the guys in the Beta, but I've been playing these kind of games for a long time and IMHO FE is no Civ V. Frogboy - I'm not sure if that's good or bad.

Derek - I like to play games on large maps that take a long time to develop. Right now I can play as a custom magic based Sov, and with a few trusted champions (with melee and healing skills), pretty much take on anything the game throws at me. Please remember that this game is really about Magic. I don't have any problem with people being able to play without a true Magic user, but at the end of the day if we can't use magic to rule the world you&#

A great big "Thank You" to Derek & the team for getting FE to such a wonderful place.! Derek - I hope we get to see more of your ideas come to life in the future. Brad - Thanks for being a true gamer at heart. Now give us something new to buy (GC3-hint, hint)!

I don't think this is a bug. It's been this way for quite awhile. I agree, it's sad to see all those unique units & monsters go to waste. Since this only happens with higher level champions, and it takes some dedicated research to get them, I also think we should get to keep the whole army.

[quote who="Derek Paxton" reply="12" id="3245130"]As Seanw3 more wittingly implied. Its not the new game, or even a reinstall of the game will fix it. You custom sovereign is the issue, he was made before the quest change so he doesn't have it. You will have to delete him and make a new custom sovereign.[/quote] I'm sorry I wasn't clear in reply #3, but that's exactly what I did. I'm going to do a complete reinstall and then recreate my Sov.

Derek - I'm still having issues with Quests. I started a new game and once again I found a Humble Inn which says I need Exploration to go on Medium Quests. I don't see any way to get Exploration in the Tech tree. I also have a Camp and a Humble Inn that say I need to learn Heroes to go on strong Quests. I've already learned Heroes. Here is my saved game. https:/
