<span class="postbody">This must have been said before, but the unit cap in UaW is hilarious. I admit it make the game more challenging. But it also sucks considerably.. Does anyone know of a mod for increasing the unit cap? If not why has no-one tried? It seems to me to be the simplest sounding way to improve the gameplay.. Damn why haven't Petroglyph? I assume there is a reason for the cap to be so low?. Author: DarthBob | Posted: Mon Mar 17, 2008 3:15 AM (GMT 0) | Total Comments: 0

<span class="postbody">I'm seeing a problem with the game font. The thousand separator character (the one that gets inserted between every 3 digits) seems to be missing from the game font, and in its place is a square [], so all numbers appear like 1[]000 and 3[]123[]741. I'd post a screenie but I can't seem to find a key for taking screenshots...

<span class="postbody">Hi, I ordered my copy of UaW today (europe) and am now really looking forward to it ( "Conquer me! ... No, over here!!" ). So I had a spontaneous idea. How about a fun-based tournament in February, when all players got their copies, could train a bit but the game is still fresh. I think there will be probably a lot of players wo want to check out multiplayer. So like a gaming night which could, if there is interest, be continued by more tourneys or a ladder for example (website based). It would not take that much time to to line it up (got some experience). Worth giving a try? Author: Triceratops | Posted: Sat Jan 19, 2008 3:50 AM (GMT 0) | Total Comments: 0

<span class="postbody">Ok so....I have just bought UAW and i already have a problem....

So now i have no idea what a certan skill or building does, no idea what my objectives are or how much money/population i have. anyone know how i can fix this? i have reinstalled the game twice already.

<span class="postbody">This is my first post and I wish it was on better terms. I have recently purchased the game and installed it on my computer. The specs are as follows: AMD Athlon XP 2100+, ~1.7GHz ATI Radeon 9100 128.0mb 512MB RAM The problem I am getting occurs as soon as I start with an error about Windows LIVE which I seem to be able to hit enter and continue. Then the intro begins, but the videos are not showing. I get a black screen with sound playing and white text on the bottom. Once I enter the game menu, there is no background only a black screen. I can see the menu and change my video options, but nothing seems to help. So far I have tried updating my motherboard, video, and processor drivers to no avail. I even tried multiple sets of video drivers and reinstalled the game many times. Any help you guys could offer would be appreciated.

<span class="postbody">How much interest is there left in modding EAW/FoC? I'm asking because Universe at War is on the way. I've justed fixed a performance issue in TibEd 2 which was preventing me from releasing an editor for the EAW games. Now, potentially I could make a very 'simple' editor with a few quick options to change. Author: Koen | Posted: Thu Aug 16, 2007 12:00 AM (GMT 0) | Total Comments: 0
