Default Re: 3.10 less stable

3.10 has been stable and solid for me.
For extremely large battles 200+ commanders and 1000+ units I will toggle the 'W' to speed the process of watching battles.
No lockups, freezing, or crashes with 3.10

Do you play the game in windowed mode? If so, there shouldn't be a problem.
If not - start doing it .
It not a solution for me, I get a weird mouse bug were the cursor is about 1/4 an inch off where it should be. makes windowed mode uplayable for me. Anybody else have this problem?

I also have that problem, but if I move the window it is corrected.

No problems here, and I'm running it on vista, in fullscreen mode, on a widescreen, in a different resolution to my moniter. I think Dom3 is the most stable computer game I've ever played.

The only problem I've had is if you delete a game folder and make a new game with that same name, the map is all messed up. Graphically, it remembers the map from the deleted folder, so the locations and neighbors are all messed up. The only way to fix it is to shut down Dominions and restart.

I'm honestly not sure if this is even 3.10 specific, and it's honestly not that big a deal so I didn't bother reporting it.

Default Re: 3.10 less stable

Ever since switching to 3.10, I've noticed some bizarre things occur in the game. When playing against AI, one of their forces occupied my home province and started seiging my fort. When I sent in a force to kick them out (and they did succeed in taking them out), the game ended with the AI winning, saying I didn't have any provinces left, when I actually had about 4. Then another weird bug just happened where it's reporting provinces that I control as containing enemy units, but the list of enemy units reported are actually my units. I can even order them around, so I know I didn't somehow accidentally load the AI player's turn. I've also seen a few odd incidents where I have had vastly superior forces who rout before a single shot is fired in battles versus an AI defending force consisting of approximately 10 grunts and an ordinary commander.

None of this happened in the previous patch. It's like the AI is suddenly cheating just because I updated the game. Also, I know its not the difficulty level because I ran a game specifically to test this against an easy defensive AI, and it's still doing these things. Did something get seriously borked or am I just going to have to revert to 3.08?

I suggest uninstalling the game, deleting the installation folders (after copying the games you want to preserve) and reinstalling. That should solve your problems. The own units reported as enemy has appeared prior to 3.10, so it is an existing but very rare issue. Also in the shortlist, I believe.

Default Re: 3.10 less stable

Got a red screen of death here only on 3.10b. 3.08 was fine.

I'm playing on mac OS X and when trying to connect to a server (which is updated to 3.10, hosted by a PC running windows), I get a red screen of death right after the port number window. Any clue here?

I deleted and reinstalled the game and ran the patch to 3.10b. I also deleted my dominions3 folder. I don't see anything else that could affect the game and I believe it's a game bug, as it worked fine on 3.08.

Unless of course everyone reinstall and apply the 3.08 patch and stay away from 3.10!
