I can't believe sth like that is connected in any way with your popularity with the people. It's possible that it's not a bug in the usual sense. Perhaps the amount of denarii only goes up to (2^23)/2 which allows values from -(2^23) to (2^23) - 1. That's about -4.2 to 4.2 millions. So perhaps when you go over that value your money is set NEW_MONEY=MONEY mod CONST, where CONST = (2^23) - 1.
If you had (eg) 4.19 millions and then you gained 170,000, it would reset your treasury to 160,000...
Anyway, just a thought... If it happens again at the same amount of money, you can be fairly sure it's probably it.

not in the same 10 shield poularity with people situation?
It seems very improbable to me, despite any flaws in the game's code, that sth *that* irrelevant can have *such* an effect on your money. A quick way to test that is by cheatcodes. Save your game and then add via the console command enough gold, so that you have 4,194,000 (it's very close to 2^22). See if everythging goes well until then. If yes, try to add 1,000 more denarii. If your treasury drops to about 700 denarii, congrats, you've found another RTW bug! You win a used laundry machine!!
Hi guineawolf,
May I suggest that you attempt re-creating this bug with R:TW 1.5. It may have, possibly, been fixed by the CA's coders somewhere between 1.1 (the old version) and 1.5 (the latest version) of R:TW. Hope this helps, cheers!
gah double post!
Anyone know how to delete posts? Laggy Internets.

perhaps,but after spent a lot of time on 1.1,and compare with the bugs still exist at 1.5 post at 1.5 version bugs,i rather play with 1.1 then.......
thanks...
I do understand what you mean gunieawolf, however, although you may enjoy 1.1, may I suggest that you upgrade to 1.2 to get the closest to 1.5, yet less buggy, version. 1.2 is the next patch on, and includes extensive statistic re-balancing and many other things that change your game-play experience - often for the better. Although it is not bug free and is still not perfect, it is an improvement over 1.1 containing fewer small glitches. The great 1.2 patch can be found
here. Hope this helps you, cheers!

but some post have point out that 1.2 AI are stupid than 1.1,but i oredi think of experiencing those patch for myself after i finish my current campiagn,still have to try all faction yet so i can compare them at 1.2 or 1.5.
then i will post up all my saved game(1 turn before capture Rome after conquered the whole map),coz i think some people here will need it to do research,where should i post them?.....hope those will help...

thanks for the link to 1.2 version patch,coz i can't find them at official totalwar.net site.....
RTW Gold Edition Fault/issue...
My son bought himself RTM Gold Edition and we haven't been able to play it yet
The game installs fine, loads up fine, the menu screens all operate fine, but when you click to start your game (single player mode) and the first Senate instruction scroll drops down on the screen, the game freezes... You can Ctrl+Esc back to your desktop, but if you click back onto the game on the task-bar it locks the computer up completely & the only way of resolving the issue is to hit 'reset' (which I really don't like doing TBH!) Whilst on the desktop, you can 'bin' the game using 'Task Manager'
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Okay, i dont know if this has been mentioned, as i cant really be bothered reading through 18 pages, but her goes.
Been playing an RTW 1.5 campaign as the Armenians, and i've been in a lengthy war with egypt.
When besieging antioch i decided to attack the largely undefended city, no men on the walls. I sent a siege tower at it, with Cilician Pirates manning the tower. It reached the walls no problem, but then it took about 12 minutes for the door to drop and for them to reach onto the walls. By this point, i'd already gotten my HA's in through a side gate by attacking the relief force.
My point being, why the hell would it take so long to fill the tower? Is it something to do with the horde shape of the unit (opposed to rank and file), or just an odd bug?
If there's been more men in defence i couldve been in trouble.

Hello,
Try installing your copy again, if that doesnt work, then ask for a repleace.
By the way, did you try to upgrade your video drivers?

No, 'fraid not
Kobal2fr, thanks, i didnt get round to reading it, too many stickies, too many threads overall, jsut thought id bring this to people's attention, but it seems that isnt neccessary!
Sarmobriva the Black Hole. I'm playing a Julii campaign and recently took Sarmobriva witha full stack. Now I tried to move 1/2 the stack outta there to make room for the peasant garrison, but they vanished int thin air afterwards. Now I've moved 2 peasants into there and there's stilll a 1/2 stack including 2 generals in there but I can't move anyone and there's no flag above the city indicating that it's occupied. What the hell? Has this happened to you here or in another terrritory?

Does the city display the out-of-sight "fog"? I've seen this happen to cities that had been recently conquered. Reloading the game always helped. Mind you, I don't recall seeing it since I installed the 1.5 patch.

Memory Leak confirmed at 2G RAM.
It only happens later, much later. My RTW has been on for like 3 days and I finally got the deadly lag and quit. Here is what Task Manager has to say:
At lower RAM amounts it hits much faster, such as in a few hours.
