Had you explored this area previously? If so, no reason you wouldn't see the city pop up. Cities are one thing that update automatically even if you don't re-explore the area. What looks weird to me is a) you don't see any cultural borders or the name, like you say b) there's no Fog of War even though it looks like you don't have units in the area.

Did you hit a key combination like CTRL+SHIFT+M or CTRL+SHIFT+N? Those will wipe out some graphics stuff, like borders, FoW, etc.

sombody plz help

[Kloreep]

Sorry, I've only ever seen stuff like that using the keys I mentioned above. :/

Stab in the dark: run the Resource Meter prog that comes with Windows and see if you still have system resources left when that happens.

on the last game a city poped up in the water

Hmm, an unlisted feature...

-
No idea how to help though

[Kloreep]

If that happened without you enabling cities on water in the editor... I'd suggest something is seriously wrong with your copy of civ. Maybe try re-installing.

Heia Norge!

I'll also suggest reinstalling and make sure you'll remove any leftovers manually, maybe even in the registry if you're comfortable using it.

one more thing i also found out is that this only happens on maps bigger then Huge....

[Kloreep]

Probably the problem. Huge maps can stress comps as it is.

i really like to play 352 X 352 Earth maps with 32 civs, But now i cant So i hope they fix this in a later patch.

keep it and use it as an airbase...
