Fatal Crash when I start Settlers3D

Anonymous — Wed, 27 Apr 2005 17:28:41 -0000

Sometimes I've problems when I try to start Settlers3D
on a Windows2000 that makes my computer restart
automatically.

Z-buffering problems with harbours.

Christopher Thomas — Mon, 02 Aug 2004 04:43:34 -0000

Harbour texturs appear and disapear as the map is
zoomed, and appear in a grille-type pattern when the
map is tilted. This is consistent with Z-buffer
precision artifacts for cards (like mine) that use
16-bit Z buffers. It can be fixed by adding more
vertical space between the harbour texture and the
underlying map tile.

System is a Celeron 366 with 128 megs of RAM, Voodoo 3
2000 or 3000 graphics card, Win98. Display is 1024x768
at 16 bpp (V3 only renders 3D to 16 bpp buffers).

Map doesn't register location selection for building.

During gameplay, the map fails to highlight appropriate
circles or lines for building settlements or roads,
most of the time. Clicking (repeatedly) on the
non-highlighted circle or line in this state produces
no result (no building).

Map renders incorrectly or not at all.

After clicking the "build road" icon, the map fails to
update for road building. It also fails to respond to
camera viewpoint adjustment. Minimizing and
re-maximizing the application, or tweaking OpenGL
settings, sometimes triggers a redraw properly
(rarely), more frequently triggers a redraw without
textures (and still not able to place roads), and quite
frequently doesn't cause a redraw at all (menu bar and
sub-windows render, but the map doesn't). After about a
dozen cycles of randomly twiddling rendering settings
back and forth, a correct redraw happens, and gameplay
can continue.

System is a Celeron 366 with 128 megs of RAM, Voodoo 3
2000 (or 3000?) graphics card, Win98. Display is
1024x768 16 bits per pixel (the V3 can only render
natively to 16-bit desktops).

Other 3D games, like Tribes and Total Annihilation,
work fine. Tribes uses Glide and Total Annihilation
uses Direct 3D, so I haven't tested the OpenGL driver
implementation on this machine. Drivers are the latest
available on the web for the Voodoo 3/Win98.

Harbour glitch on board after viewing Maps

Anonymous — Sat, 07 Feb 2004 10:08:57 -0000

While playing normal 4 player network board, and looking
at the Maps, the ports on the playfield became blank,
and I was able to build ships in my build phase.

Bug in the web site for players with ' in their name

The symbol ' is misinterpreted by the web site when you
try to log in.

It makes the WHERE clause to fail.

Bug with large font display when trading

Anonymous — Sun, 21 Dec 2003 20:43:55 -0000

When you use large font display, you won't be able to
finalize a trade because the trade dialog is too small to
show all the players, so if the player you want to trade
with is the third, the 'Trade' button won't be accessible.

Resizing the dialog or adding a scrollbar should be fine.

No status text when moving or displacing with knights

Jason Fugate — Tue, 11 Nov 2003 16:44:38 -0000

From Aragos:

This is a minor bug/feature request: after chosing
'displace robber', cities says: 'choose a location for
the robber' - but you have to select the knight to
deactivate first:
