Strange demo bugs? Utgard = Smouldercone?
 

Heya, is there any way to upgrade the demo beyond 2.08? Cause when I choose the Jutun theme "Utgard", it gives me the Smouldercone in my main province. >,> Talk about useless for cold 2... Is there a fix to this? I'm running win98. Thanks!

You must run a v2.11 or higher demo, and start a new game.

EDIT: The Utgard theme was broken in patch 2.08; it's a known bug.

Thanks, where do I find a later demo for windows?

I'm not sure what the current Version of the demo on IW's download page is.

That's 2.08, what I'm now running. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif

I remember some time ago, I didnt have this bug. Then it cropped up. I deleted the game and the folder, and reinstalled, but its still here.

Wierd.

I *assumed* that IW would likewise update their demo to 2.11 (and then 2.12). If not, people need to scream at IW ...

Well, where can I find mods that will work on the demo that are some "suggested" mods? Especially for a newbie like me? Things to help with the interface or things that are just useful...

Re: Strange demo bugs? Utgard = Smouldercone?
 

There are no mods that tweak the UI. IW has not exposed the UI to modding. I doubt they could even if they wanted to (and IW's programmer hates UI coding).

You can try these locations for mods:

IW's mods page

my downloads page

*sighs* so no one knows where i could find a better Version of the demo?

I've been reading your AAR, Ms. Arryn, and I fancy tracing your steps with my own Utgard map, in order to figure out the hows and whys you do the things you did, to better understand this game...

Unfortunately, I cant do that with a broken demo...

Oy vey...
