Anyone got and test the new patch??? I wait for a good game to show in the Multiplayer Lobby... DirectIP is finally here..

I just played an internet game for about 30 minutes. No lag, but eventually there were some synch issues.

Is is compatible with savegames from 1.04f? It doesnt seem to be indicated in the update list......but i think it should be right?

This mail will answer you questions:

It's a simple fact that bugs that don't get reported don't get fixed. I
will look into it.

Subject: The famous end replay histograph bug

Barry,
You said that I could report bug directly to you.

This is a story about "Famous end replay histograph bug".

What happens?

Normally when end replay starts, above histograph screen Score is selected.
But if you select Power and exit from Histograph, next time when end replay
is started Power is select.

So where is the bug if you ask me.

Simple.
That preselected Power histograph will still show Score results, not Power
results (although it reads Power in description).
It all returns to normal after you select Score and
then select Power again.

Why is this famous bug?
I first noticed it in 1.07f version of Civ3.
And I thought that it's too minor thing to report, and that somebody would
probably notice and fix it in some next patch.

And it still exist in 1.04f version of PtW.


Thanks,
Andrej Damjanovic (aka player1)

It's famous now.

Woo HOOO! downloading. i've been waiting for this...

The real question is does this patch make MP playable?

[WarpStorm]

Yes, it does, if you have a reasonable ping to all players (the game runs proportional to the worst internet connection). There are a few bugs with it still, but it's a major improvement over 1.04f.

I wonder if this is a good enough reason to break my "no Civ until after the LSAT" rule? (with the exception of my PBEM... don't worry guys)

[SpencerH]

I'm glad they're continuing to support PtW. I look forward to some major improvements in the MP-PBEM gameplay.

Can you load old v1.04 games in 1.14? Me and a friend got a HUGE game going on, would like to keep playing it
