[.983 Bug] Exploration Tech in FE Support Elemental Forums

Don't know if this is a bug or an actual game concept. I keep getting quests (Humble Inns usually, medium level) which require the Exploration Tech. I have yet to see Exploration show up in the Tech tree of any game I've played. I also don't see Exploration listed in the Hiergamenon. This goes back to .982. Now I always play a custom Sov - Amarian Warlock, so maybe this choice has blocked this tech. Just seems too basic a concept

[quote who="Lord Cobol" reply="155" id="3242756"]Sorry, after beta-ing from the beginning, I can't get the current version to run on my XP box. That makes it the worst version ever.

[quote who="Heavenfall" reply="91" id="3241750"] Quoting Trojasmic, reply 89 HF, I think he just likes it when we re-post "Still not fixed" messages after the next patch... which reminds me, you should re-post your "glaring UI issues" post again. Quoting Heavenfall,reply 91 I'd rather someone else bumped it (hint hint). But seriously, if they've read it and thought about it that's enough for me. What I don't want is to report an issue only to se

Something is currently blocking me from higher level quests (needed tech has been researched). Do i need to do a reinstall instead of just updating, or are there some files I need to delete?

[981.2 bug] Higher level quests still blocked in FE Beta Elemental Forums

Don't know if this is a real bug or not, but I haven't been able to play higher level quests for the last couple of Beta's. Deadly quest needs Erogs Journal, which I just researched, but even after waiting a turn, game will not let me go on quest.

The team has done a wonderful job getting this game ready for release. Beta 5-C is heads & shoulders above were things were just a month ago. Please take the time to eliminate as many of the bugs reported in the forums before release as possible. I would also like to second Heavenfall's comment about the importance of UI. IMHO the number one thing that has kept me from buying/enjoying games is a UI that gets in the way of the fun. <p

Okay - just updated my NVIDIA drivers & everythings back to normal. They weren't out of date by very much & .95 beta worked just fine, but just goes to show how touchy programs can be.

Anyone else having this problem or is it just my system. Up to this point I haven't had any issues with any of the beta versions.

[.951] Save & Load broken in FE Beta Elemental Forums

Save & load wouldn't work with update so I deleted program and downloaded full .951 beta. Save & load still won't work. I tried medium map with premade Sov, but this didn't help either. Load button won't even get to save list for me to pick an autosaved game. Here are links: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ez3gn36rlo6cz5l/debug.err <a href="https://www.dropbox

Just wanted to say that after playing for about 8 hrs last night I really like where Derek is taking this game. I voted good, but only because there are a few issues, no point repeating other posts, which keep if from getting excellent and very good wasn't an option.

Reply to What size map should I optimize for? in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

I always play the largest maps avialable on all my strategy games. However I have no problem with you using medium maps for optimizing the AI. I don't think the average player would have the time or patience to play the kind of long drawn out games I like.

[quote who="seanw3" reply="122" id="3186842"] I keep a list of notes on each planet in large ES games. Sure the UI needs a little notepad that we can open next to the planet, but I am more than capable of doing it myself. I am the emperor of a vast system of planets.

However, I tend to agree with SEANW3, keepin

Now here is a champion worthy of MOM! He comes with very good armor & shield & weapon. A great tank, but wait it gets better! He has the trait "Call Uteran".
