I thought Finn's didn't like the Russians?

Darius871 · December 23, 2002, 12:10

Well gee, what a shock, I don't get the pillage dialog.

I guess I can't play in this one either, and odds are that it'll happen for other people.

Will we have to dump a great scenario over this? Someone fix it!

I put Pap and Yaroslav in contact so I hope it is being looked at. I of course had to do that since someone else I know wasn't being much help...........

Can I use Germany????

Pap1723 · December 23, 2002, 15:39

Welcome Academia, I hope you don't mind I stole some of the colors from your Iron Curtain scenario.

I am going to get started on this cities thing and Darius will start.

Don´t worry Pap. No problem

IMHO:
If you post it in the civ2-scenario creation section (graphics, utilites, scenarios) it becomes "public". You created that to share it with the rest of the civ2 fanatics

Darius? Are you going to play this pbem?

Pap1723 · December 23, 2002, 16:34

Here is the updated scenario file with the fixed cities.

Pap

conmcb25 · December 23, 2002, 16:45

Pap

Bad news, Im having the pilaging problem as well now playing the japanese SP in 0.7. No dialog box and it pillages the Fortress first.

And I have the MGE patch 1.3

Dam it we need yaroslav!

$hit this is frustrating!

conmcb25 · December 23, 2002, 21:52

Obsolete

I already said I can't play... even though the Japanese don't really need to pillage anything in this stage of the game, I'm guessing whoever plays the Soviets (who do need it) will have the same problem. We have to get this problem fixed (if it can be) before we start.

He tried it a week and a half ago and couldn't fix it, and neither did Pap, Choke, or myself. Give it up already Knapowski.

What? Yaro looked at this a week ago? When were you going to tell me that?

Kiss my but Darius!

We have a "work around". If you delete the games.txt in the SCENARIO folder it will default to the original CIV II Games.txt in the CIV II MGE folder. When the scenario is played like that the pillaging seems to work. Yaro is looking further into the problem to try and get us a permanent fix.

GAME ON! YEA!

Pap1723 · December 27, 2002, 18:35

Great news guys!

Yaroslav has found a temporary solution to the pillaging problem.

Anyone who is having a problem pillaging, just remove the Game.txt file from your folder, delete it, or whatever, and everything works fine.

Darius is going to get this one started soon!

Thanks Yaroslav!

Pap

conmcb25 · December 27, 2002, 18:37

As you can see from the above two posts great minds think alike!

Pap1723 · December 28, 2002, 02:14

Wow, even posted at the same exact minute.

Pap

Darius871 · December 28, 2002, 23:16

Just the facts:

American and Soviet fleets annihilated at Pearl Harbor and Vladivostok.

Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Manila, Kharbarovsk, Guam, and Nanning captured.

Boy is it hard this time Pap, I've got nothing but infantry!

Btw, how come Home Front isn't buildable?

Darius871 · December 28, 2002, 23:59

Btw, I fixed some problems in the map that came with the scenario; made the African map more accurate, fixed that weird line going into China, made Mongolia Soviet, etc.

conmcb25 · December 31, 2002, 10:05

Pap are we still playing this one? Or should we upgrade to version 0.8?
