Master of Magic Classic Windows installers updated to
CMFW 1.04.02 Changelog:
http://www.slitherine.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=971209#p971209 • Fixed bug : When 30FPS mode is enabled, the game was stuck in an endless loop when a Magic Vortex was moving.
• Fixed bug : "At most 3 vortexes can be controlled by each player!" fails to get displayed when attempting to cast a fourth Magic Vortex spell, causing the game to crash.
• AI players are now able to raise or lower their tax rates by more than one level per turn.
• AI players will now raise taxes when their income is negative as far as it provides a relevant increase in income even if it means high unrest rates.
• When disbanding units due to gold, food or mana shortage, the AI will strongly prefer disbanding units outside cities instead of units in city garrisons.
• Save slot names are now stored in Savename.INI. This should allow keeping the save slot names when moving your save files between computers manually, and should prevent loss of slot names after future version updates.
• Keys.INI can now recognize the Backspace key. ('BACK')
• Pressing the Backspace key on the overland screen autoselects the units that moved previously.
• Apprentices now require a Magic Market in addition to previous requirements to build.
• Apprentices now have 1 melee attack instead of 2.
• Fixed bug : Enemy Stealth units are visible in the city view screen
• Optimization : When loading scripts, comments are removed in memory immediately, instead of being skipped during runtime. This should speed up the processing of scripts.
• Optimization : When loading scripts, labels are removed in memory immediately, and their position stored instead of being searched for during runtime. This should speed up the "Call" script commands.
• Optimization : Variables are no longer accessed through linear search. This should make scripts significantly faster.
• Fixed bug : Evil Omens had a 150/150 = 100% modifier instead of a 150/100 = 150% modifier since the modding option for it was added.
• Fixed bug : Pressing the Done button affects all units in the current stack instead of only the selected units.
• Fixed bug : When the winner of a battle lost a high value unit, they gained a fame and the other player lost a fame instead of the other way around.
• The "No Trading" score modifier cannot be selected while "Against the Worlds" is active, as it would be impossible for the human player to trade in that mode.
• In automatic combat, when undead are raised, each unit consumes (cost*(resistance+9)/18) undead budget instead of "cost".
• This effectively means no change for resistance 9 units, double cost for resistance 18, and half the cost at resistance zero.
• Fixed bug : When the automatic combat score modifier is enabled, attacking a player and breaking a treaty shows the monthly report window covering the "cast spells" combat decision window.
• Updated the effect of the Abundance spell.
• New effect : Enchanted city's maximal population is raised by 7, but to a minimum of 18. Overfarming penalty is eliminated.
• Fixed bug : The diplomacy bonus based on attacking a mutual enemy was able to trigger regardless of the amount of enemy units killed.
• Fixed bug : The AI sometimes casts direct damage or save or die spells on targets that would take no damage/have zero chance of being affected, when no target exists that would be damaged by the spell.
• First Strike is no longer capped at dealing at most 24 damage before the enemy can retaliate.
• The following units now have Negate First Strike :
• Behemoth, Great Wyrm, Death Knight, Demon Lord, Great Drake, Sky Drake,
• Beastmaster, War Monk, Golden One, Amazon, Priestess, Paladin, Necromancer, Black Knight, Chaos Warrior, Chosen
• Supernatural now has a minimal damage of one third of the original damage instead of the less intuitive (damage-5)/2 formula.
• Chaos Spawn maintenance cost is now 5.
