Crash So this time I realized I had changed a few DirectX graphics settings between versions, related to mip-mapping and anisotropic filtering. It did not seem significant to me at the time, but after going through a lot of the comments, people with AMD cards were the ones usually encountering the crash. Also, one person was able to fix it with dgVoodoo2, which is a kind of directx wrapper thing. So I turned off those new settings and I am hoping this resolves the issue.Testing:To test this (if you are willing and/or able) you would right click on "Islands of the Caliph > Properties > Game Ver

Crash I have gotten some feedback on the code I am using in the multilingual version of the game, and I am attempting some of the suggestions. Once again, some players are experiencing a crash when starting the game. I have not been able to reproduce the crash on any of my computers. So I am relying on player feedback to see if this works or not.Once I can confirm the crash has been addressed, I will make it the default version again.Testing:To test this (if you are willing and/or able) you would right click on "Islands of the Caliph > Properties > Game Versions and Betas" and select "Multilin

Game Rolled BackThe code handling all the translations was unstable. I can't figure out why just yet. So I have rolled the default version back to 1.3.4, and put the new version under: "Islands of the Caliph > Properties > Game Versions and Betas > Multilingual" I have also disabled the store pages for other languages for now, until I can figure out what's going on with the game. Thanks for your patience in this matter.

Last Time I Swear Okay this is the last time I will attempt to fix this bug the way I have been. If this does not work, I will roll the game back to the most stable, previous (English only) version, and work on the different languages in a separate branch until they are stable. I think I have figured out where the crash is happening, and it is in the script that determines where to write save files. My attempts to fix that script seem to work on my computer(s), but other systems do not react the same way for some reason. Hopefully, this one solves the issue. Please Test!Please let me know if i

Narrowing Down So as mentioned in the last update, when you load the game, it creates a file called: "loading.log" You can find the file here: "C:\\Users\\-Your Username-\\AppData\\Local\\Islands_of_the_Caliph"I have added more log entries to this file to help narrow down where the error is happening. If your game is crashing, please have a look at this file and post the results here. Sorry for all this, I just can't reproduce the bug at all, so I have to rely on player feedback. Older Version Might WorkI have also uploaded an older version of the game, right before updating the languages. Ver

So there is a Bug (reprise)It crashes the game for some players when they first choose which language to use. However, on all my computers, none of them trigger the bug. So it is very hard to test and troubleshoot.So I have updated the game in an attempt to help figure out what's happening. When you load the game, it creates a file called: "loading.log" You can find the file here: "C:\\Users\\-Your Username-\\AppData\\Local\\Islands_of_the_Caliph"If the game is crashing on load, the contents of that file might help me get some details.

So there is a BugIt crashes the game for some players when they first choose which language to use. However, on all my computers, none of them trigger the bug. So it is very hard to test and troubleshoot.But today, I found a problem in my code that might be responsible. I have updated the game with the corrected script, so hopefully it works. And hopefully it does not cause trouble for anyone else...

New Camera MovementI heard you, I was just not good enough to do it. Now I figured out how to program the game in a way that allows more tight camera movement, without having the player spin around in the wrong direction :) I noticed that this method also removes a lot of the visual anomalies that always bothered me. Had I known it would eliminate these visual issues, I would have attempted this much sooner.

Game Crashing on Start (for some players)It seems my last update did not fix the bug where the game would crash on starting. I believe this one may solve the problem. I think the bug has to do with the way certain game folders are named in the script. I encountered this issue on another game, and realized I am using the same script to name these folder. So I fixed the save folder name, and thought it would resolve the problem here too. But apparently it did not!But then I realized, I am also using the same script to name the language folders, not just the save folders. So I have gone through a

Update: The Demo has just been updated too. Three new translations are available!Now you can play Islands of the Caliph in Indonesian, Spanish and Portuguese. Go to the options panel from the main menu, go to languages, and select the language of your choice. If you are just installing the game (or free DEMO) for the first time, the game should prompt you to choose your language when you start it up for the first time. Minor ProblemsIndonesian, Spanish and Portuguese version may have some slight issues. I noticed that the menus are not all aligned perfectly, so you may see some overlapping wor

I am excited to announce that Islands of the Caliph is now bundled with Heroes of the Seven Islands, in the "Island RPG Bundle!" If you already have one game, you can get the discount on the other!

Chinese Language (Official Version)A very supportive and industrious player has translated the game into Chinese! I was able to go through and make sure it fits in the UI and that there are no obvious errors. But of course I may have missed some details. Also, I checked some of the more sensitive passages to make sure the original meaning is conveyed, by google translating the Chinese back into English. It comes across as a bit strange, but over all I believe the meanings are correct. If you encounter something in the Chinese script that sounds really strange, please let me know. German Langua

Note: Chinese Language also included in latest build German Language (Official Version)I was able to get a real German speaker to review all the German language files and store page description. It is still in a preliminary testing phase as there are some small bugs that require work, but overall it seems to function as designed. The game will now prompt users for their preferred language when they first start it. You can change the language again later in the options menu.

German LanguageI was able to get a real German speaker to review all the German language files and store page description. It is still in a preliminary testing phase as there are some small bugs that require work, but overall it seems to function as designed. To access the current, German language version of the game you will need to activate the "public_testing" branch of the game. To do so, in your Steam Library, go to "Islands of the Caliph > Properties > Betas" and select "public_testing" from the drop down menu.

I was able to iron out all the bugs in the language script. Note: this does not mean the translation is good or even fully tested yet. But if there are problems, those are likely to be in the individual text files, and not in the game's code.
