Aristeia Bug Thread

[Zhuge_Liang]

Please post whatever bugs you find (which are not on the known issues list/FAQ) in this forum. None appear to be game-breakers but I am maintaining a detailed list for my own benefit so I can tick each off when we make the next release.

Please do consult the FAQ before posting.

KNOWN ISSUES:-

1) Heroes have multiple shadows

2) Heroes have the option to attack walls, but just stand at them and do nothing

3) An error relating to the intro is generated when exiting the game.

4) There is an undesirable line in the middle of the battle ui.

5) If you use the auto-detect settings button then you may knock off the one-man units. If this happens navigate to your preferences file and change the unit_size property back to 40.

6) There is a possible crash when exiting some battles which use reinforcements. This is probably a RTW bug caused by reinforcements not having any movement points - we are researching it at the moment.

7) Hyperboreioi have no info card.

8) The battering ram pokes through the wooden wall slightly.

9) Unit cards selection contrast could be improved.

10) No Naxos garrison?

11) There are problems with the 6tpy script when loading - please use the hotfix

12) Some hero traits may not work fully.

13) You get the error message "cant find skeleton 'fs slinger new"

Unsure as to the cause but the reported solution is to unpack the 'pack' files. Check here.

14) An Anteliol Panchalkoi (Bronze Men) texture is missing

Is it supposed for not being able to change the unit size? Because the option is absent, and I like a bit more "bulk" in my armies...

[Zhuge_Liang]

@ TiagoJRToledo - unit sizes should be limited to medium for 1 man heroes to work, that is why we removed the option to change them.

Oh, ok. It's still one of the best mods yet!

Greek translation of Devout should be "Eusebes" instead of "Asebes" (which is the opposite actually).

I have two Odysseus units in my bodyguard. This is in the first battle of a campaign as the House of Laertes.

Edit: It seems all my heroes have 2 men in their bodyguards.

I thought some people would have this issue, and I'm quite eager to find out a fixed solution.

Your unit settings are stuck on large for some reason. Please check your preferences file and ensure that it is at 40 (for medium) for unit size.

If you have vista or windows 7 try running the alex exe as administrator. Alternatively set windows explorer so you can view hidden files. Then perfrom a search for all files of the name preferences.txt - any which are in an aristeia sub folder check and change the unit size to 40. if that doesn't work change all preferences.txt files unit sizes to 40.

[Benz282]

I think I know what caused it. When I loaded Aristeia, I went into Video Options and clicked "Auto-Detect" for best performance. Even though the menu is gone, it seems the setting got changed anyways as a result.

Edit: Yes, Unit Size was set to 80 in my preferences. Changed it back to 40; assuming that will solve the issue.

Ah I see, I'll put a warning about this up on the release page.

[ROFL Copter]

Crash when I quit a battle. Dont really understand why.

I'm guessing this may be to do with a trait being gained.

At first : very nice mod

I play as Troja and Hector has adopted Penthesileia (the amazon princess). Now (121DA) she is married with another trojan Girl (Klytaimnestra). Maybe they will have children
Maybe Paris will do the job. he isn´t married and helen isn´t in Troy

I can hire horse archer (Hyperboreioi) as mercs. They have a UI but nu UI_infocard (grey peasant)

regards Kaddirrh +repppppp...

Ah, a new bug, thanks - it will b fixed in our next patch/release.

Regarding Penthesileia - I'll have to give her a wife to start with and in infertile trait lol.

CA are on to something, you find bugs so much quicker after you release

[Tony83]

Damned exellent guys, the only issue I've found so far, apart from what's aleady been mentioned is that the screen image overlaps all four edges of my monitor. I've not really found it a problem, but some of the UI buttons at the bottom get sliced in half.

[Kaddirrh]

for Penthesileia again: She has a male voice on the battlefield.
I don´t know is it a bug or not, but the westgreeks don´t reinforce their camps from the homeland. thats why the game is over and Troja rules in 123DA . The first try was High/High. May be on VH/VH is quite other. But I think the wincondition for Troja is to easy.
My friends (Maionion and Belle...) feel boring in the second half of the campaign an the fight each other besides the Walls of Troja and try capture the camps. Who has such friends needs no enemies.
By the way the mod is very stable no CTD or freezing during the first try. Amazing Skins !!!

Yes well Penthesileia's voice can't be helped (she is a trojan general after all).

If troy wins too easily it is because you are not fighting them! lol. Your own victory depends on Troy not achieving its objectives, that is why it is important to take part in the trojan war and win.

Like I have said before once the trojan war is over (ie. once troy falls or the Greeks are smashed to pieces, the alliances will fail - otherwise there would be no point in playing on.

[Kaddirrh]

@Zhuge_Liang
lol
For me is not possible to fight against Troja. The are the good guys
Hector is the hero who fight against warlords from greek
But I will try to smash the cities of the bad guys.
