"Don’t Forget: A gate can cut off access between your city and provincial towns! I’ve seen this error made in city depository cities." http://www.caesar2.com/province-tips/

"Enemy armies are not very smart about moving around walls and tend to overlook the holes that are necessary to maintain economic connections." That seems to suggest walls cut those connections. http://www.mogelgott.de/database/pc/...lkthrough.html

In fact, on that same link it says this: "Farms, mines, quarries, trading posts, border towns, and ports must be connected by road to the main city in order to work. The connecting road must not have any gates; gates are equivalent to breaks in the road"

So, no walls

I hope it helps you!

Don't even bother playing Caesar III, then

dang, the series seems like it has such a strong background though if only it wasn't so glitchy! I dind't have these problems until i used provincial walls (this is the 3rd province I've been in, the other 2 i conquered easily without incident, and WITHOUT GLITCH!) and that was REALLY enjoyable, then this one and my stupid provincial walls through everytihng into hell >:[

Ps i am playing version 1.0.

According to one of the previous posters, this: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=NSJ2M5UH unpacked into the game directory should fix the problem.

I am running into a bug.

During gameplay a fire starts - after my prefects get to the scene and put out the fire I find half my city is gone that wasn't connected to the fire.

Just before typing this a barbarian attacker entered my city. The 'your city is under attack' popup indicator shows - *poof* - an entire chunk of my city and wall is gone and the barbarian proceeds to continue through my (once were) walls.

Any help/explanation here?

Thanks

about the city disappearing - this doesn't just happen during fires, if you play the game a lot you will notice the estate value in some tiles starts to shrink for no apparent reason. Once the tile shrinks to the lowest value, the houses simply disappear, it's a bug i've experienced countless times.

I have no direct solution, perhaps more experienced gamers can provide it, you just have to wait a while and the land value will start to increase again.

I decided to give this game a go the other day and it just didn't 'click' for me. I actually remember spending nice time playing it back in 90ies, but perhaps the fact that I've played other similar games since (Pharaoh, Caesar III and even Caesar IV) that were much better imo made me not wanna play this one.

Just a note here that Caesar IV wasn't that great - too much micro management if you ask me.

Hey, to start im playing from cd. If i dont use dosbox everything works fine other then it being way to fast. Dosbox fixes that but the then all the voices are choppy. Anyone got any ideas?

So i guess my question is anyone know how to make the voice not choppy in C2? and windows xp if that matters.
