Strange engravings
« on: May 13, 2007, 05:40:00 am »
I have a strange bug regarding engravings. Every other engraving has the same name, same quality and same subject. In my succesion game that would be an exeptional engraving of a superior rendering of a large serrated disk, called "The net of genius"

a severe case of lack of creativity on behalf of my engraver or a bug?

Did this only happen in your succession game?

The same game in which reveal.exe was used, and you had many masterwork pieces of masonry and engraving in the first year? If mulitple cheats were involved, I would be skeptical of any bugs that arise in that game.

Reveal.exe was the only cheat used.

I got masterworks in year 2 because my engraver was walking directly behind my miner, smoothing everything in sight, so he was legendary by summer 2.

This would mean the art image id number was getting wiped out for the detail event, and I'm not sure why that happened.  It could be anything from how the files were moved around, to whatever reveal.exe does to the game (no idea), to something happening in the game itself.
