1.25.03 Fonts issue

Post by lucliu »

I'm using Windows 11, the fonts are messed up even when using the QuixleyLET fonts and XP SP2 compatible mode.

Below is the screenshot and the reproduction steps:
1. Start a new game
2. Load the saved setup: France default
3. Mouse right click the army stack

This is not a font issue; it's just a long-standing problem with text overlap when there are more than 4 lines of text for a unit. Looking at it, I could drop the unit supply status since that shows up in the area box and limit the leader ratings to the three ratings without seniority. There might still be more than 4 lines for a unit if it has more than 3 troop types. I can look at doing this.

Thank you for letting me know, Bill.

Easy fix. I should have done this long ago. This will be in the next update, either a v1.26.00 Hotfix if I need to or else the next v1.26.01 Beta.

Bug bug bug .......... !!!!

I did two parts and encountered several bugs.
First, I played the French at war with England and Spain.
After a diplomatic phase or reinforcements, all units and depots of these three nations have disappeared from the map!!
I found them in the pawn store. The units in the bodies had not disappeared. I had to replace all the units during the reinforcement phases.
In the same time, my fleet left the port of Brest alone and without order.
I found her in the Mediterranean. She was destroyed by the English fleet !!! :oops:

Second part: I play Russia. during the game, the whole list of victory conditions disappeared. I had to stop the game and raise to see them again.
Much more serious: my game is now blocked!
The screen is frozen on a combat resolution. Because the application asks me to remove forces in bodies that are already at 0 (empty, destroyed).
I don’t know what to do to get out of this situation!

Could you post saves for 1) land phase prior to diplomacy where units disappeared and 2) land combat phase that freezes? I need to see a reproducible bug to find it and resolve it. The surrender conditions glitch is known and I can't figure that out; reloading the turn usually resolves that.

Offhand, I'm wondering if maybe you don't have the game compatibility set to WinXP SP2 and set to something else. That may explain the disappearing units. I don't know.

P.S. It would be most helpful for you and others to post new bug reports in a new post and include a game save for me to look at. Thanks!

If you could please provide game saves, I might be able to resolve whatever you're seeing. I am hoping to wrap up v1.26.01 Beta soon, this week, so now would be good.
