CanOmer's Bug List of Demo

[roerd]

Two bugs I was seeing in the demo:

- When I had to declare war in the campaign tutorial, I was told to use the conquest CB, but I actually only had a holy war CB available.

- The shadows for undiscovered continents were in totally wrong places (i.e. the Americas were much too far east, so South America was overlaying Africa), and didn't disappear once the continents were discovered.

They were also German King.

Roman King. Who was elected, and as such it was a title, which could be lost (short Wittelsbacher-Intermezzo in the 18th century). After 1508, it became the title of the successor, not of the ruler himself.

Anyway, using königlich could be legitimated.

Not sure if this is a bug but Venice keeps getting cluster bombed by England, Austria and the Ottomans.

 

[Yeekim]

You're right, but basing it on continents make no sense at all. Now that we have trade zones, which already represent the movement and distribution of goods, making them do double duty would make some sense.

The game already calculates "distance" for colonization purposes - why shouldn't similar method be used to determine whether some place is "distant" overseas from capital or "simply" overseas?

When you click on a country in political mode, and then on another you get stuck at the previous countries core claims rather than seeing the new countries core claims. It requires you change to a different map mode and back to work again.
A similar thing happens in cultural map mode, where once you select a culture and it goes into culture group colours, you can't go back to normal until you swap map modes and come back.

 

[Dadvester]

The following has happened to me twice...

Playing as Portugal. Created a General and put him in charge of my 15k stack. Few years later went to war with Morocco. Clicked the "attach to transport button" and it Auto split my army. Transported it all over to Africa and recombined it. General is no longer in charge, yet he is not available for selection and is listed as still alive and draws upkeep from my MMP.

At work atm so cant test it, and last night i was tired and thought i just missed something. However i've seen someone else post this another thread. Anyone else had this problem?

 

[arctus]

i have the Problem that the sounds disappear after a while of playing, Music stays there but sounds like moving army or Canon shots in siege Interface disappear.

 

[Rabid]

May not be a bug but some weird stuff happens if you select a province, then switch to region mapmode. It only highlights the region which that province is in, and to get the full region map back you need to close the province window and then click the region mapmode button again. I can't see a reason why this behaviour would be desired rather than just showing all the regions whenever the mapmode is active, as it's trivially easy to see which region a selected province is in anyway.

 

[Ruanek]

Thinking local is not a good idea. We should consider all possibilities. It is simply gamebreaker.

You're right in that it doesn't seem optimal. That doesn't make it a bug, though. (A bug is a mistake that is in the game unintentionally - I'd bet that this is very intentional.)

It's great that you can show your point with colorful maps - I'd have trouble doing that, myself. But those situations you highlight are very unlikely to occur in the vast majority of games unless the player works to make them happen. I'm not saying it couldn't be improved, but to me it seems like an overreaction to call it a "gamebreaker" - especially when it's behaving in exactly the same way as in EU3. And since it's behaving exactly the same way as in EU3, we know that it isn't technically a bug.

 

[mattyh1995]

When I play the demo it crashes after random periods of time. nVidia GTX 580 with latest drivers (320.49).

Just gonna say, I have the same setup and have experienced no crashing. Maybe it's something else.

 

[Alextrasia]

dunno if its a real bug... but in my last portugal game (played it like 5 times up to now ;D) i realised that if you have discoverd a province of an other nation which your not able to see the capital of them yet all you have to do is click on the newly discoverd province and you ll get a free discovery of the province holders capital. Makes no sense that you dont have to actually discover the capital the normal way and just get this information as a present from paradox...

 

[unmerged(532061)]

Every time I try to click and drag with the mouse the music pauses for 1-2 seconds and the screen locks (as in I can't scroll around the map) and I need to go to the escape menu to re-enable it.

Not that big off a deal but still very annoying.

Africa: Lake Volta, it's a reservoir from 1965.

MENA: Judea wrapping around the Dead Sea, Negev too and Judea, Hawran, Al Karak as Al Misr (Egyptian) is just wrong. Tunis/Algiers lake border. Bahrain is mostly on the peninsula. You have a province of Kurdistan and it has Azeri culture?

Europe: Western, Central, Eastern "Finish" Lakes. Lake between Beloozero and Yaroslavl has terrible borders. Slovenes are not Austrian Germans. Riga and Lithuania have a border... Liege is too long and phallic for my taste.

Asia: Mislabeling Qinghai Lake as Poyang Lake. Aral Sea size is too much shrunken modern. Java being half uncolonized.

South America: Lake Poopo draining upwards... South Georgia as part of Falklands

North America: "Great salt Lake". Cape Breton and Acadia touch.

I've been having CTD crashes lately, all except one so far in tutorial. Today, just started a normal game on demo and after some time, even before I have yet to unpause the game and after tinkering around with various interfaces, it crashed to desktop. So far, I am unable to find consistent cause of crash. Does the game automatically create a dump or log during game or after crash that I could supply here to assist Paradox here? Thanks.

EDIT: I also vaguely remember something about 'runtime' being mentioned on crash dialog that pop-up.

EDIT #2: I forgot to post my spec here:

GeForce GT 230M
1024MB dedicated video memory
Intel Core i7
1.60 GHz
450 GB
6GB RAM

Is the error dialog box called "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library", begin with "Runtime Error! Program: (directory of EUIV)...."?
If that's the case then you should go to Microsoft and install Microsoft Visual C++ 2005/08/10 Redistributable packages.

And it seems like your video card is a bit below the requirement, while it could cause the game to have sub-optimal performance, it isn't likely the culprit here. Does the game lag when scrolling?

Oh, and let me guess, is that a HP Pavilion dv7 17" laptop?o

 

[Declyn]

Discovered a bug: When you have below 0 DIP Points (bottom cap is -100), you cannot end a war even at 100% warscore and 0 DIP costs. You have to leave the country occupied until your score is back to 0 or greater.

(For those wondering: You can go negative forcefully by going on a vassalation spree above your diplomatic relations limit)

1.) Yes, I think so. I'll try game again and see what error exactly say and take screenshot for reference. And I will look into installing that package should it occur again.

2.) Game performs reasonably well despite the video card, even when scrolling.

3.) Yes. Kudos on you figuring out the model. I'm planning to get a new PC, a desktop this time, next year, though, so I won't be likely using this for any longer. It will become 5 years old in late next year.

As Portugal, 5 years in Tangiers and Ceuta randomly became Moroccan. No war, no event, they were just suddenly not my provinces anymore. Pretty sure the date was September 1, 1497.

I have had similar happen - I had conquered Casablanca and was converting it to Core and then it was gone; no message or event or anything. I was in the middle of a 5 year peace with Morocco after the war where I conquered it.

[EDIT] Apparently this was part of a peace deal between England (I was allied with them) and France - but there was no warning or notification. This process needs to be more obvious.

It's partly WAD, the war leader used Return Core in its peace treaty, but currently there's a bug preventing popups or logs when a peace treaty is signed.

I do not think that could possibly be even partly WAD if he really was in no wars. How could wars fought entirely by third parties result in a transfer of your territory?

I don't know if this is a bug, but perhaps someone can tell me. I was fighting France as Austria. I noticed that France would end the war if I returned a Venetian core to Venice, a territory I had already cored as well. Sure, I thought, I need my manpower to recover anyway and I was bound to fight Venice again soon, so why not? Peace out, my core disappears instantly. Is that expected?
