Trading post error

Post by Kairyu »

I want to come back to AOE 3 but when I try to install it in my win 10 PC, it has a bug with Trading post. Unless I upgrate to Imperial Age, Trading post can't upgrade Stagecoach. In native village, trading post doesn't work too, it appear button upgrade "Stagecoach" :mad:

I do some search with google but no solution work with me:
- Play in compapility mod win XP, win 7.
- Reinstall another copy of game, reinstall after delete all key in regedit.
- Update the last version 11.4
It's still no work.

Do you have an official copy of the game? Is there the same problem in TAD?

There are Steam versions of the game that you can download from other sources than Steam itself. Save that $11 and donate to a future tournament instead. ;)
Pay more attention to detail.

The short version: because the game didn't understand all number format except English. Go to control panel > region > format and change it to English, the bug should be fixed.

The long version: Any number format that use comma as decimal separator (e.g: 25,00 is twenty five, not 25.00) will cause the bug. I guess the game cannot parse the text to number, that explain other related bugs: explorers, heroes in campaign can not regen HP when they die, militia called from town center do not lose HP overtime where they should.
