Ahm, hello folks!

I was unable to play Civ for a long time but now I'm back (again?).

Well, just wanna say that I just got Civ3 Conquests and that I just got Civ3 Multi Tool 1.10... let's see if it works fine here, cause I always seem to find bugs that no one did...

And, Gramphos, I see your Multi Tool does not have a portuguese version... if you (or anyone) should want it translated to this language, I'll be glad to do the job!

Anyways, see ya!

	1.10 Savegame issue Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete

I noticed 2 issues last night while editing a savegame. I am currently running CIV III with the latest Conquests patch v1.22; BIQ Version 12.08.

I exported the map from a new save game. I opened the map in the Conquests editor and noticed the Player Starting locations were missing. I thought it may have been a setting issue with the editor but I reset the Player Starting locations and they appeared on the map albeit in their new locations.

The other issue I had was with Bonus Grassland. I modified the save game with the editor and added some Bonus Grassland tiles. I imported the map onto the original savegame, saved to a new savegame file and loaded the game. The Bonus Grassland tiles that I had added were not there. The only Bonus Grassland tiles that were there were the original from the unmodified savegame. All my other changes seemed to be there. I thought it may have been an issue with saving so I exported the modifed savegame map and opened in the editor. All my changes were still there including the Bonus Grassland.

Any idea what may be causing this?

Thanks.

Depending on how mush time I can spend on investigating the saveformat before the next version is to be realeased. I'm ironing out some bugs with the BIC-handling system currently, and have rewritten a large part of the central code for handling the rules. The timeline for an updated version is very hard to set, but currently many areas are in need of being changed to the new (and final) BIC handling system for a working version to be produceable.

I had to remove some limits with the current system that's been in since the begining of the Copy Tool and not are very well handled.

	Suffering from ads?

It works partly with 1.22. I hope that the next version, that I have no idea of when I'll finish will work a lot better. (I'm rewriting the codebase for hadling rules and saves. As a result of this the savehandling will become more roubust, but due to some VB issues the time to free up memory on load of another save or exiting the tool will increse a lot. I hope to be able to solve that for the version after the next version)

As for the ability to correct the DATA IO: CITY error I'm not sure if the new code will handle those errors. At the current design level they don't, but it might be reimplemented before I finish the next version.

I can't give a timeline for all this, but probably not within three weeks. (exams coming up)

I'm getting crushed by the AI in my game (C3C - latest patch). I loaded the saved game in just fine, gave myself some money, and tried to save the game back. No dice. Each time I save, I get an error.

Wait for the next version. I'm chanign a lare part of the file handling for the next version, and will disregard all old bugreports once it is done. There will most certenly be new bugs in the next version, but probalby not the same bus as in the current.

I still don't have a date for the next version, but not before the next week is over at least.

Well I re-installed v1.10 and everything seems to be back to working fine again.

I managed to get the Wizard working once with the latest version, but it corrupted the BIQ or something, because I got an error when I tried to open it up in the editor. Luckily, I had a backup copy of the BIQ. I'm not sure how much good it would do for me to share the BIQ, since I have custom unit graphics and suchlike in a scenario folder, and I'm not sure I want to go to the trouble of posting the the entire scenario unfinished.

I can post it if you want though.
