Woohoo! Happy New Year everyone!

The list of fixes is here

Thanks Ogedei.

:Edited January 2009:

The original download link redirects to Activision, but the patches are now available from our downloads section.

The correct patch for the US version of the game is caesariv_update_en_10-11_12.exe. The patch for the UK/International English version is caesariv_update_en_10_12.exe.

1.2 fixes many of the critical bugs that were present in 1.1, so of course you will need the patch. I'm not entirely sure if save games are rendered useless; they are for online play, however.

EDIT: OK, so I've tried installing the patch and it doesn't work. I think that they might have accidentally uploaded the wrong version. Let's see if others are having problems and if this is the case.

Great! Hopefully I'll be able to get back to Alexandria. That trade route bug was driving me crazy!

Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!!

I just installed the English 1.1 to 1.2 patch. No problems. My 1.1 saves load fine.

OK, so it seems that the link on the News page is actually for 1.0 to 1.2. If you have 1.1, you'd have to go to the Downloads page and get the 10-11_12 file.

WARNING:

If using US version 1.01, don't patch to 1.2 yet, there was a 'screw-up' with the patches...

See post no. 43 here: http://www.tiltedmill.com/forums/showthread.php?t=12273

I did, and now can no longer even sign-in to the online community....

I just tried it, and it worked. I did have a new prompt from the firewall, and I had to re-allow Caesar IV to access the internet.

Can some tell me how I find out if I have US or UK game - Purchased in Austrlia.tia

Hi Madness. I bought mine in Australia. It is the US version. The box looks different for the International English edition. Check out the different boxes for US and UK. Which one do you have?

Wow, the patch was released while I was away eh. I was just reading the list of fixes:

These sure will come in handy for a lot of people.

Saw this in patch 1.01 and it's in 1.2 patch, too:

Checking the labor resources - Carthago

Total Plebs Needed: Have - 3504 versus Need - 3544

Unemployed Plebs: 56

Always seems be in industry that reads low in the 'Have' column. However, the plebs are available, at least when I place a new industry, farm, or raw material camp they fill the vacancies.

Also, while playing Carthago, I missed a request of wool, but it gave me another 4yrs 6 months to fill it. However it never showed up on the Imperial request list. I would think it should have been listed as an outstanding request. Even 4 yrs out...which seems a bit much - mho.

Lost my HD a few weeks ago, after re-loading C-IV, I went directly to the new patch - English version - without any problems. Overall I'm quite happy with the patch, especially being able to turn off the weather.

i have just installed this game and when i go to play it all i have is a white screen but, i can hear music, ads etc.. i have installed latest versions of DirectX and newest patches. what is the problem??

Hi workcrow, welcome to the forums.

It sounds like it might be a video issue. If you post here in the technical forum, angel PCDania will probably be able to help you.

Be sure to mention that the game is Caesar IV, and mention your computer specs too.

I can't seem to download the patch at all. I've tried in both IE and Mozilla. If I try to click on the link I get a webpage not responding type error (both browsers). If I right click on it to save target as it doesn't save (in IE I get an error while saving and in Mozilla it appears to save but doesn't appear in the location).

I tried turning off my antivirus...turned off pop-up blocker (not that I suspected that, but I was trying everything I could think of).

Does anyone else have any other suggestions?

Do you mean the US version 1.2 patch?

When I go to this page and click on 'download now' I get the usual dialog saying 'Do you want to run or save this file?' Do you mean this is not happening?

Yes, Kach...that is exactly what I mean. I don't get the run or save dialog box. But, apparently, it sounds like it's just me...which is a bummer.

It's looks like you cannot connect to the ftp site for some reason. Try the technical forum. Angel PCDania is sure to have a few suggestions.

The last post is a year old. Is anyone still moderating the forum?
My game keeps crashing. I'm playing Amida scenario on normal, and once my population starts to build everything collapses and the game crashes. I keep starting over but it's getting frustrating.

Hi karenusXXI. Sorry to hear the game is crashing, Caesar IV can be quite picky about computer specs.

If you post in the city building technical forum, you will catch the eye of the technical folks and get some help. Be sure to mention your system specs and that the game is Caesar IV.
