New Patch (v.3.06) For Dominions 3: The Awakening!

It's rather bizarre. I've had no problems whatsoever with the new patch. I patched to 3.04 originally and then to 3.06 and never had anything at all. The only thing that I sometimes see disappearing is the commander actions menu when you click on the orders button, and that because the game displaces the action menu off the screen. Esc --> try again brings it back onscreen every time.

Yes, I noticed the bug only occurs when I'm coming back to the main map after selecting a commander, but going in to the commander view through the army setup isn't a workable long-term fix, I'm afraid. I'm often working with provinces that have lots of commanders, and I tend to sort them by what they're doing, which is not something that I can see from the army set-up screen. Also, I don't usually bother to rename commanders, so trying to remember if its Xutholchi or Xuchantipi that's supposed to be the one I'm giving the jade knife to isn't something that I'm really interested in doing, although I suppose it would be a helpful memory training exercise.

Basically, though, I'm not that interested in a difficult work-around - I think for the time being I'll go back to the 3.04 patch, which worked fine for me. I hope this is something the devs can fix, though.

I agree... no problems at all after patching to 3.06

This topic should be unstickied... so the next new patch can have a new start.

It'll get unstickied in time. After we actually have a new patch and that one is still in the works. Patience.

Game worked fine for me before this patch now i get the same problem as described before everything going invisible except for the map.

Is it possible to go to the previous version without reinstalling the game?

I think ive found a fix for it on another thread. i deleted a key file in the dom directory and re-entered my cd key and it hasn't happened again so far, so hopfully thats it fixed.

Sometimes a patch can change files that were not changed in the previous patch. Patching backwards would cause different strange results

Try deleting the key then typing it in from your manual.
If that doesnt fix it then contact support

Dunno if anyone else is getting this bug, but now that I have the patch, whenever I end a turn the game crashes and gives me a message of "ConvArmyNbr: error!"
