Animations glitch

Post by Twotribes »

I am having a glitch with forts that dont appear on map ( the flag is there and you can click on them and have effect on them or occupy deoccupy ect) Paducah in the latest game I keep losing the flag for my army and then can not access it unless I use the Army screen which returns the flag to map.

On quick battles have artillery Brigades that dont appear , they are there you just cant see them, when you place them you get the red box and if you mouse over them you can inspect them. ( they are armed with Napoleans)

Also in Paducah I could not assault both forts with 2 seperate forces, one of the forts doesnt have a graphic and wasnt manned. Eventually it let me assualt just one fort and then said I captured both.

This didnt happen in any previous game ( before patch).

I had the same issue before the patch. I was the South and I could not see my cannons in the ANV during quick battles.

It looks like a "+" sign in a box.

If a fort is newly built in a province, you will not see the outline yet as it has near 0% capability. Only if you garrison I believe (or set a division on "repair fort") will it start coming into visibility. It may not be your problem but I noticed that AI has a propensity to build forts everywhere and you don't always realize it if it's brand new.

So you pay to build a fort and THEN have to repair it? What did you pay for?

I can't tell you exactly cause I've actually never successfully created one myself (probably because of lack of materials) but I'm guessing it's to simulate that a fort isn't built overnight.

Eric,
 
I didn't see the overflow button. If I can get the computer to attack the ANV again - I'll try and take a screenshot of the invisible cannons. They are on the "playing field", you select them and place them like any other unit - it's just you don't see any graphics for the cannons.

The cannons are documented and have been fixed.

Are you still having the problem with the forts?

Thanks, Eric
