Wow, that's a good long list of changes... Any announced release date? Nothing about it @ civilizationiii.com (I wonder if they forgot that they owned that domain )

Now, if there only were some non-droppers (locally) that I could bully into playing...

@ all the English-version people whining. Poetic justice.

PBEM bugs fixed! Say it's not so!

[Turk Man]

where the U.S 1.27?

[Jon Shafer]

It's in a trunk in Uzbekistan.

* Updated non-era techs to allow for civ-specific tech trees. If a non-era tech is used as a prerequisite for a regular tech and a particular civ does not have access to the non-era tech, all techs sprouting from the non-era tech will not be visible on the Science Advisor screen and will not be required for advancement to the next era.

How would it fit in an elephant's trunk in a zoo in Uzbekistan??
Have a city name? I'll catch the first flight out!

Oh, ... I'm still finishing a game (62 more battle-filled turns to go).
Just never mind!

(BTW, I noticed they fixed the city walls - THAT was an SP thingy!)

[FrustratedPoet]

Here:

* Fixed bug which caused walls not to be obsoleted by growing from a town to a city.

too bad i purpously bought the US-version... well, shït happens

but i do have a question:

* Updated non-era techs to allow for civ-specific tech trees. If a non-era tech is used as a prerequisite for a regular tech and a particular civ does not have access to the non-era tech, all techs sprouting from the non-era tech will not be visible on the Science Advisor screen and will not be required for advancement to the next era.

i didn't even know this was possible before! but can the AI demand these unique techs as tribute? and are the techs tradeable?
it would be slightly sucky to create a scenario with unique goverments and improvements and then notice that the AI trades them anyway...

anyone?

[sabrewolf]

otherwise nothing really big for single players. like civ3's v1.29f, i guess it's mainly clearing some last bugs before the new expansion (which, acording to some beta testers seems quite bug-free already at it's beta-version )

i do like the cancellable scenario loadings... i never know if it has crashed or just takes hours to set up...


thanks firaxis / atari!

[Jaybe]

sabrewolf, it was possible but it didn't really work. That's why the update. I would suppose that if something is civ-specific they wouldn't apply or be any use to anyone else. If it didn't work that way, then it would have to be fixed (again).

[SpencerH]

Hopefully, I'll be able to finish my first PBEM game (game ending bug in sig).

[Gramphos]

It was possible to have different tech trees, but everyobner would have to see the techs that only one civ could resarch, now they will be hidden in the tech tree.

Also the bug with it making it possible for others to get them seems to have been fixed.

* Fixed a bug with non-era techs that allowed players to potentially receive them for free from the Great Library (NOTE: this also fixes a similar bug that would allow players to receive techs that they do not have the prerequisites for if the order of the techs in the editor was changed).
