Bug: Unable to see Indy units

[horza]

I'm hoping someone has seen this before and can help.

Just after installing the 3.26 patch and CBM 1.71, and starting a new game, I found myself unable to recruit indy units other than those provided by sites. They simply didn't display on any captured territory. National troops in the cap are fine.

I disabled CBM, same problem. Reinstalled and repatched, same problem.

Decided it must be an obscure Windows 7 directory pathing issue (which I've seen before and thought I'd overcome with Admin overrides), so copied the installation from Program Folders to C:\. Same problem.

Completely stumped at this point. Presumably the sprites for the indies are missing, but why? Can anyone help?

Seems like a dumb question, but are you by any chance playing an "NI" (for "No Independants") map ? If it doesn't say so in the title, open the map's .map file in notepad. If there's a string of "province XXX poptype 99" near the end, it's an NI map.

Yeah, what map are you playing on? Try a different map.

Doh! Thanks guys, I hide my face in shame. It was indeed an NI version of a map I'd used before.
