Where can we find AOC 1-3? Or is it basically the same game but updated even further over time? By the way, I love this game; I've played it for almost 500 hours in the browser, then as an itch.io download, and now on Steam.
Is it possible that the enemy AI is broken on certain maps? It seems a bit off sometimes. Also, are you still providing content updates for it? I have some ideas that could be beneficial.
For example, why doesn't the AI ever use the tactic of hiding their king in an allied country? Also, they not often use the option to go straight through allied territory to exploit it as a means to reach an enemy.
I update the tutorial for the next update: you either need to left -or- right-click on the target province to attack. Does using the other mouse button work? Sorry for the troubles.
If you disable "Touch Mode" in the game's settings, the right mouse button should work. I also have Chrome and it can be used to set the target province to attack/go to for example!
It's possible that there is a problem with the steam overlay. If you run the game directly, does it work? Maybe your OpenGL version is too low? What's the output of the log files otherwise?
You told me from the outset to update my graphics card driver, and when I had difficulty in doing that you actualy provided me with where to go to download an updated driver. Your support has done you credit - and I 've taken back any negative remarks I made.
Brill job and a great game.
I'll certainly puchase the 'All Maps' bundle for Demise of Nations now.
Like I said, Brill Job - Kudos to you, my friend and many thanks.
It's the graphics drivers. I am about 98% sure that updating them will fix the problem. I've seen similar screens from other players before. Updating their drivers fixed.
You don't need to rename maps/etc.: it's a scroll panel. You can scroll down to see other maps/scenarios. It's not so clear given the graphics aren't rendering correctly.
> ... Graphics drivers... were already updated as could be for the machine I was using.
That's what Windows wants you to believe! It always says it's OK, even when it isn't. You need to manually check and update them. 1. what's your graphics card name? 2. what's the graphics card driver version number? I'll have a look and tell you where to update!
Thanks for those. I need some more details to look up your graphics card. "Intel® HD Graphics" is not enough? Is it a 3000, 510, 620 etc.? Do you have a more descriptive name.
Anyhow, you can also check here https://downloadcenter.intel.com/ if you have the name. There should probably be a version higher than "8.15.10.2189"! Generally, those Intel HD Graphics aren't that great (bad quality).
Not from my side. I suggest, contact the map maker & ask him to change the names to English. I'll add it to the translations, so they can be translated back to Chinese for Chinese speakers.
What's the error message you are getting? Something like "OpenGL 2.0 or higher with the FBO extension is required. OpenGL version: 1.1.0" in the stderr.log? If you have an Intel HD 2000/3000 graphics card, you will need to apply the following patch:
Amazing ! I really like this game ! I hope there will be a suit of this game because I REALLY LOVE this one ! Excellent, good job :D But, I would ask you something, I'm also interested to make a great conquest game, is it really hard to do it with one person ? Because I've actually only a map generator with random king / emperor name but nothing more. Thx :D
I just installed this in Windows 8.1 and get an error "Error opening media file. Please move this file to an ascii-only path like c:\". What does it mean and how do I troubleshoot this?
Ah yes it works independently, but fails to start with that strange error from the Itch.io app..... I guess I'll start it independently for now, but is there a way to fix this? Thanks!
It seems the game doesn't like that path. However, generally, you given it's the portable version it should work in any path. Do you have any special characters in the install path of the game? Can you move the path in itch.io?
There are no special characters in its path. Just to be clear, I installed the game successfully via the Itch.io app, but it fails to start from within the Itch.io app. However, it works if I manually navigate to where the game is installed by Itch.io, and the game starts normally when I double click on the executable. So it sounds like a problem with the Itch.io app?
Yes, it might have something to do with the itch.io app if you are able to start the game directly. However, I assume you are successfully able to start other games!?
What you could try (not sure if that's the case?) to move the itch.io app/game to a directory with only ASCII characters. E.g. from "C:\Über\..." --> "C\Uber\...". Not sure if that's where your games reside? If you have only ASCII characters for the game's path, it's odd that that error message would happen however. Maybe try to talk with the itch.io team as well?

The AI isn't broken, it just can't deal with all types of maps equally well.
For example, why doesn't the AI ever use the tactic of hiding their king in an allied country? Also, they not often use the option to go straight through allied territory to exploit it as a means to reach an enemy.
ded?
No, still alive!
yay
it doesnt say how to move troops/attack. Please fix the tutorial.
I update the tutorial for the next update: you either need to left -or- right-click on the target province to attack. Does using the other mouse button work? Sorry for the troubles.
Thank you for your help! I haven't tested if the other mouse button works.
Right click doesn't do anything for me, using Chrome.
If you disable "Touch Mode" in the game's settings, the right mouse button should work. I also have Chrome and it can be used to set the target province to attack/go to for example!
Good game.
Nice, 5 stars
I launch the game, and it loads. It closes the loading screen and nothing happens. Its just a loading screen.
Ok I tried it on Steam, it said this error message:

That's most likely an OpenGL error: you graphics drivers needs to support OpenGL 2.0 or higher! Can you see if there are newer drivers?
Great game, been enjoying it a lot.
Thanks for the kind words :)
I downloaded this game on steam but when i try to launch it, it doesnt pop up.
Can you help
It's possible that there is a problem with the steam overlay. If you run the game directly, does it work? Maybe your OpenGL version is too low? What's the output of the log files otherwise?
Nice game.
Any way to play local multiplayer without going online?
That's currently not possible via LAN, but the game supports Hotseat! Setup a single player game and choose 2+ players to make it a Hotseat game.
Just to say NobleMaster, You were so right.
You told me from the outset to update my graphics card driver, and when I had difficulty in doing that you actualy provided me with where to go to download an updated driver. Your support has done you credit - and I 've taken back any negative remarks I made.

I'll certainly puchase the 'All Maps' bundle for Demise of Nations now.
Like I said, Brill Job - Kudos to you, my friend and many thanks.
That doesn't look right! Please update your graphics drivers, that usually happens when you get an old/bad driver version :)

where is the start button once you've downloaded the game
If you downloaded the ZIP, uncompress it first. Then/otherwise, simply run the executable!
Is there a way to do AI only games with this?
Yes, just create a single player game!
By AI only i mean AI vs AI, not Player vs. AI.
In the editor, there is an AI test-runner to test balancing. Otherwise, no, there is no such mode.
why would u want to watch that sounds super stupid and dumb
O jogo não abre. Já tentei pelo steam e pelo itch. Instala mas quando executo a janela sempre fecha.
What's the error output? Can you look at your log files?
please I want this on steam
It's available on Steam also: http://store.steampowered.com/app/314970
Great! I'll download it
Wow! It reminds me of a Paradox Grand Strategy game!
great game, best i have played in a long time but please change the bigger countries from east and west to just one country in the modern world map
It's in the works :)
nice :)
Download version the latest version 1.0.21 of the modern world map! It now has bigger nations divided into e.g. east & west!
Don't opens. I have win10, is this?

It's possible but it takes time. I suggest find a good artist and maybe someone that helps with modding.
noble,aster i love this game i allways play it on my computer but i want to download it on my ipad 3 but its not compatible can you do anything
You need iOS 9+ and a 64bit processor at minimum. I am sorry for that, but anything lower and the game tends to crash on iOS.
I just installed this in Windows 8.1 and get an error "Error opening media file. Please move this file to an ascii-only path like c:\". What does it mean and how do I troubleshoot this?
That's an odd error message! Did you install it via the itch.io app? Can you download the game directly, unzip & run it!?
Ah yes it works independently, but fails to start with that strange error from the Itch.io app..... I guess I'll start it independently for now, but is there a way to fix this? Thanks!

how do i play without downloading
It's not a browser-based game. You need to download it...
