Why is all in quotations? Does that mean you might have missed one?

Nah, it means all are gone. Right?

And let me get this straight. .81 will fiix and destroy "all" CTD?

If so, then whats keeping Eb from 1.0?

Units, maybe a few buildings, and god knows what other tweaks and new stuff. Just a guess, but I think that rascally EB team still has quite a bit up their sleaves...

We may never have a build that is absolutely positively ctd-proof. The reinforcement army ctd has been greatly diminished, but appears to still be present in some rare situations. BozosLiveHere has mentioned that the amount of effort and possibility of finding the reason for the ctd (which probably lies in unknown limits that the game itself has that we are unaware of - in which case it is exceedingly difficult to figure out what can fix it) may be so difficult that we are not able to ever totally eliminate it.

We are currently trying to fix a problem with a random crash before a battle - it seems to be sprite related (crashes before battles that then aren't there when you reload have been tied to that in the past), but the sprites appear to be there and working.

I used quote because there are some placeholder units and placeholder cards still included.

There are less than 10 units missing one or both UI Cards. Hopefully we can reduce that further before the release. As for patches, we've had over 90 "submitted fixes", which range from a complete reworking of DMB-EDU (to eliminate model sharing conflicts) down to humble one line spelling corrections.

Although it took a lot longer than originally planned, the Patch is first and foremost a fix to existing content.

Have you got the religion system for Saba working? Any new stuff for them?

**Teleklos Archelaou** · 01-30-2007, 18:20

They have temples now, but the top level is blank in the descriptions. Still it's better than the nothing they have now.

Good to hear, can't wait to get a campaign going as them. For some reason I find them so enjoyable and easy to roleplay. It's probably because they're so deserted (mind the pun) and you don't get swamped. I still think that ethiopa and the arbian paninsula could do with one or two more provinces each to increase the Saba gameplay, but I know you're all maxed out so that hope is distant.

The Saba are much nicer. If only just that they have a few gods now and you can see what their units look like before the battle (all unit cards are in for them).
