I have installed v1.5.3 and the game crashes every time I try and load a game started before the installation. Both games are Silk Road v1.5. Other games are ok.
I have also just noticed another old problem re-appearing. When I create a game A list troops are of better quality than B list. For example with Ancient British warband B list are below average and A list are superior.
Just re-loaded the game and it is now reversed for the Dacians i.e. A list is better than B list.
I have now also had a weird pursuit of the past where my cavalry has turned its back on enemy cavalry right next to it after chasing off a LF. My cav move has ended facing in the direction of the LF although that is no longer visible to it.

Re: Existing games crash after installing v1.5.3
Silk Road v1.5 does not work with v1.5.3. Existing games will not work even if you download v1.6.Cunningcairn wrote: ↑Sat Dec 15, 2018 1:17 am I have installed v1.5.3 and the game crashes every time I try and load a game started before the installation.

There is, however, a workaround to allow you to complete the games.

I am guessing that your Difficulty Level is set to Centurion or Deity.I have also just noticed another old problem re-appearing. When I create a game A list troops are of better quality than B list. For example with Ancient British warband B list are below average and A list are superior.

Pursuers will generally turn to face the routers at the end of the turn unless they are more than 2 squares away. This has not changed.I have now also had a weird pursuit of the past where my cavalry has turned its back on enemy cavalry right next to it after chasing off a LF.

Re: Existing games crash after installing v1.5.3
1. Silk Road problem - Thanks!
2. Different quality troops - Yes it is set to deity but this is multiplayer? Does the setting affect multiplayer games as well?
3. Following routed troops - OK thanks I'll keep an eye on it.

It happened after I installed the new update. We will have to start again. I will post another challenge.

Re: Existing games crash after installing v1.5.3
It seems that this issue only affects the army list previews. Once you get into the actual battle, the troop quality is normal.rbodleyscott wrote: ↑Sat Dec 15, 2018 10:34 amHmm, it shouldn't really.

We will look into fixing this for the next update.

Re: Existing games crash after installing v1.5.3
Thanks I did a check myself and as you say once you get into battle the troop qualities appear to be as they should. Is there any chance that the incorrect troop qualities are used when adjudicating combat results?rbodleyscott wrote: ↑Mon Dec 17, 2018 9:44 amIt seems that this issue only affects the army list previews.

Re: Existing games crash after installing v1.5.3
None at all. It is purely a display bug in the Army List preview. It has been fixed for the next update.Cunningcairn wrote: ↑Mon Dec 17, 2018 10:58 amThanks I did a check myself and as you say once you get into battle the troop qualities appear to be as they should.
