[Dev Team] 1.5.1 Hotfix Released [checksum b8d2]

[Jamor]

Hi all, Jamor here to drop a quick word: thanks to the helpful logs we got from you, we were able to pinpoint and fix the crash happening when mousing over certain things in the province view. We are pushing a hotfix live right now to address that issue.

No need for a spoiler cut for the changelog, since it's one line:

- Fixed a crash in province view

It should be completely compatible with 1.5.0 saves, but just in case we've made a 1.5.0 rollback branch which you can opt in to via Steam library - right click on Imperator - betas tab - choose the build you want.

Thanks for your patience, and stand by for more fixes and balance improvements as we continue post launch support in line with your feedback. Hope you have fun playing this weekend!

Thank you for the fast hot fix for this game braking bug.

I would also like some adjustments how you handle AE. The stability downtick is currently realy harsh.
It would be great if we got like 30 or 50 AE before it applies, so we get some breathing room for moderate expension.

 

[Álvaro Núñez de Lara]

Thank you! That was quick.

At least now we can play through the weekend without crashes waiting for more hotfixes next week

It looks like the Antigonid tag has undergone a transformation. It has happened twice, once you select a nation and start a new game.

Even starting the penalty at 10 AE would make a big difference to how it is currently. A small buffer allowing for minor conquests without instability would make sense and encourage smaller wars. Give us some more peace options which don't include taking territory directly, so there's a less incentive to take huge amount of land and accrue tons of AE.

Thanks for the quick fix! I was excited about the patch but the crashing made the game unplayable.

I’m also noticing that it’s really easy to get a huge head start on research as Rome compared to the other nations: 238% research efficiency and nearly 2 levels ahead of the Diadochi. Maybe it’s because of the large no. Of nobles/research generated from nobles?

I think the balancing of stability, research and AE needs some worK, but it’s a good patch

 

[Space Mango]

For me 1.5.1 still crash in province view.. nothing changed

For me 1.5.1 still crash in province view.. nothing changed

For me it seems fine now, but haven’t played it too long

 

[Inspecta]

Can you please fix modding issues? People cannot properly convert province and river files, which results in log telling there's a missing pixels for the province colors. Also, map editor crashes since 1.4. Please, send a programmer into Imperator Mod Coop in Discord, where people can list every issue they have with modding on recent versions.

 

[Thanezz]

I reloaded a save and it crashes at the same start date as previously, which .txt file do I check to see where the issue is?

 

[Limet]

Hey since the Menander Update, random borders are sometimes highlighted/glowing. The hotfix didnt fix the issue and im not the only one having this as people on reddit have complained about this.

 

[Dsingis]

Are you aware, that this hotfix doesn't actually fix the crashes? The same crashes I had last patch still happen. I have posted a new bug report on the subforum about that.

 

[SupremTurtle]

It is nice that the crash is fixed. But Is it possible to balance the stability impact of aggressive exapnsion? - it gets quite miserable with aggressive expansion of over 20+.

 

[ihc70]

Yeah, I'm getting a CTD, too. The hot fix was auto updated. I'm on Steam. There doesn't seem to be any event or screen that causes it.

 

[SAS]

I am not getting any CTD. Are you playing on a new game or save? Are you hovering over a certain modifier when you get the CTD?

 

[TheUnspeakable]

I was still getting the CTD on the old save. It was based on an instance of the "Urban Planning" status and the vertical bar next to the "Coordinate Urban Development" button. Once the status expired everything seemed to be fine. One I initiated another instance of "Coordinate Urban Development" and the "Urban Planning" province modifier showed up again, hovering over the vertical bar once again caused the tooltip for "Urban Planning" to show up and the game to CTD.

you're welcome, but didnt this happen when you did 1.4.0 as well......?

not that i mind submitting ctd reports on the reg, but the bug seems to be repeating itself a bit

 

[nikkythegreat]

I find it weird that cities have 15 noble desired ratio while metropoli have 10.

 

[Halv5]

Just want to say I really like this patch, and it really feels like Imperator is becoming a full fleshed out game.
The many different cultures really gives some meat to my gameplay.
There are many odd bits and bobs that need to be polished for 1.5.X but overall I'm very happy where the game is at now!
