2.2 Demo Known Issues and Bug Report Thread

[MrSicnus]

Unconfirmed: (I can't recreate any of these issues no matter how many times I try, need more information on reproducibility)
- Potential crash on Zsinj death?

I get this one every time he dies. Is there any info I can send to help?

[Corey]

Do you know who controls any of Kuat, Etti, Bonadan, Ession, Tsoss Beacon, Carida, and Garos IV?

[Pentastar Enforcer]

new glitch found, can't seem to take the planet of Celanon with Melvar on it. I've tried about 3 times now, blown Melvar to bits multiple times, yet the planet won't join me and the Maldrood. So what do?

[tlmiller]

Autoresolve.

Thrawn's Bug log Entry 5:
Sometime my game might crash on level three shipyards if Zsinj dies there.
My game also crashes when I attack New Alderanan

[Corey]

AdmrialThrawn2, are you playing the second patched version, or are you still using the original release?

I was finishing up my campaign as Zsinj when Maldrood managed to ambush and destroy Iron Fist. I owned Centares and the surrounding area, but Kosh still spawned over it. On an only marginally related note, could Angela Krin be removed and appear in the Corporate Sector fleets when Zsinj dies?

Also, while not a bug, droidekas are very expensive for what they offer. A price more comparable to T2-Bs rather than Hailfires would be more fair. Interceptor IVs also seem underwhelming as a 2 pop unit.

Finally, are there any plans to make infantry captains heroes that show up on the tactical map? It would be convenient to know their whereabouts and health/existence more easily.

Im having issues loading the game, it starts to run but it just stops at the loading screen. Do i have to delete the mod then redwonload it?
I have installed quite a few mods and they all have worked well, Including Thrawns revenge. (And yes i am using the vanilla data folder I have copies for a reason.)
Also i cannot get the shortcut to work, so i am having to use a mod launcher program to launch mods, I cant get the shortcut for the first Thrawns revenge to work either.

[Ty]

I have enough memory, and I have downloaded it multiple times on different browsers. It still only extracts art.

Depending on specs, the loading screen can take a LONG time to load.  For instance, on my system (octa-core, 16 GB ram, SSD) it takes ~5 minutes to actually get to the game.

I can't seem to get the mod working it goes to the first screen then locks up. I followed all the instructions to the tee. I even combed the help forums, did a fresh clean install of both eaw foc and the mod. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks

[Corey]

Does it actually crash (as in, do you get an error) or does it just sit on the loading screen? As has been mentioned, it can take a while to load.

[Jacob]

Im good, you're right it takes time.

A recent bug I had involved my Greater Maldrood attacking Commenor to retrieve Lott who had spawned there.

I had managed to retreat Gendarr, but oddly enough Lott was never attacked on the ground and clicking his symbol in the upper right told me Commenor. So, conquering Porus Vida, Kashyyyk, and retaking Cejansij, I went for Commenor. I had packed a well-sized fleet with me and sent them off as I sent my main fleet out to Selaggis IV. Now this is when the bug actually began. As my fleet neared Commenor, the hint-notifier told me that the planet had been conquered by the Imperal Remnant, kicking the New Republic out of there... and suddenly the game paused. But.. not really?
The game acted as if I had hit the pause button - could select planets and fleets and start construction but could not move, attack, or much of anything else. The pause button had not been pressed, even after clicking on it a few times I still saw the pseudo pause affect everything. Restarting the game, the Windows VM (I'm currently on a Mac using Parallels w/ Win7 on it) and even trying the Defreezer did not allow the game to continue working.

Thankfully I did have a backup save of not too far before the pseudo pause, though unfortunately it seems that despite having saved it for later examination, the save is gone or has rollbacked itself somehow... I did see if I could recreate the bug by reconquering the very planets I had done before and moving a similar sized fleet to Commenor, though it did not reappear.

This would be using the second patch I believe, I downloaded the demo a little under a week ago and have been enjoying it thoroughly. This is the only major bug I've found so far, and it is a strange one.

[Corey]

What did you do with the defreezer, and what happened afterwards? It should have fixed it if it was used on the correct save.

[grunt700]

When I play as Greater Maldrood and try to reload a save, it crashes my game

[Corey]

Grunt, get the updated version; it fixes that issue.

[Ty]

I have enough memory, and I have downloaded it multiple times on different browsers. It still only extracts art. Any Answers?

[Corey]

If you double-click the file instead of extracting it (which should let you explore it like a regular folder structure), what's in it? Also, what's the name of the file you downloaded?
