Mathew Steel 151 Posted October 9, 2014 I have noticed every mission (as far as I remember) has been set in the night. Now I've seen lots of gameplay where players playing the same mission are doing so in the day. Is this random and I'm unlucky or can I change it? Thank you! 0 "Gofyn wyf am galon hapus, calon onest, calon l?n." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nigel 71 Posted October 9, 2014 (edited) That is odd.All my games have been played in the day. I have not seen a night with Crusader 2, yet (well, inside the game I mean :cool: ).I had thought, night was disabled for the time beeing. Perhaps it is a very odd bug at your end. Can you post a screenshot? Edited October 9, 2014 by Nigel 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lord_Chris 251 Posted October 10, 2014 What time of day (in real life) did you play these missions? Was it around night? Maybe it could detect the time of day you're playing and set that. 0 Quote The fields have eyes, and the woods have ears.

Mathew Steel 151 Posted October 10, 2014 It most certainly does occur Nigel, it has happened to me a lot I occasionally play a day time match but not often. I think Chris has the answer, I just played at 5:12pm and it was day so I'm assuming if I were to play around 8pm it would be night. I'll try this and let you all know :) 0 "Gofyn wyf am galon hapus, calon onest, calon l?n." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mathew Steel 151 Posted October 10, 2014 Yep it seems Chris's theory was right:) 0 "Gofyn wyf am galon hapus, calon onest, calon l?n." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nigel 71 Posted October 11, 2014 what :O That is a surprise. I would love to pay a SHC2 game in a night setting. What time did you play the missions? And also, what timezone do you live in? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lord_Chris 251 Posted October 11, 2014 We're from the United Kingdom, the same default time zone as the site - currently 10:16 AM. But time zones should make no difference - any bet it takes it from your computer time. 0 Quote The fields have eyes, and the woods have ears.

Mathew Steel 151 Posted October 11, 2014 Well actually now I'm not sure. I have been playing the last hour and some games were set in the day some in the night. I honestly don't know the answer but it is annoying me a lot. 0 "Gofyn wyf am galon hapus, calon onest, calon l?n." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mathew Steel 151 Posted January 23, 2015 I'm sure I've made a topic about this before but I can't find that topic and the problem seems to have not been fixed anyway. So whenever I play a game of Crusader II, it is set in night time. No matter what time of day it is, this still occurs. I haven't seen anyone else play in the night so I'm wondering why this only happens to me. Does anyone else have this or is it just me? It isn't a huge problem but playing in the same depressing darkness can get tiring after a while. All help appreciated,Tom 0 "Gofyn wyf am galon hapus, calon onest, calon l?n."

EaglePrince 230 Posted January 23, 2015 Maybe it is not night as night, maybe it's just something about graphics? I mean, maybe whole picture is darker, so it looks like it's night? I do realize this is most likely pretty stupid suggestion though :D , and I believe that it's more likely to be something else. Still, I will try to see some stuff in my game this evening - after I get some my work done. :) 0 Stronghold Crusader faces and shields Stronghold Europe website Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mathew Steel 151 Posted January 24, 2015 Finally! The problem is solved. EaglePrince had the answer. I must've accidentally disabled dynamic lighting when lowering graphics to increase my FPS. Thank you all, hopefully this helped you. But either way, now you know how to play in the dark :P 1 "Gofyn wyf am galon hapus, calon onest, calon l?n."

EaglePrince 230 Posted January 24, 2015 I'm glad you made it to solve it! Indeed, as of now, if one starts fighting against you during the night, he's going to have a bad time. :) 0 Stronghold Crusader faces and shields Stronghold Europe website Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nigel 71 Posted January 24, 2015 This is interesting.I must try out some night battles now. Curious to see what that is like :cool: 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EaglePrince 230 Posted January 24, 2015 Still, it's nothing compared to Stronghold 3 night battles... :P Right now I have won a campaign mission where I had to capture a castle during the night; so I was moving through areas further from the castle, and I was avoiding file in the wood near which I would be spotted. :) In fact, it is just like Stronghold with fog of war with exception that you can see enemy buildings - only you can't see troops. But, I do realize this is not the subject now, I am glad to know that we are able to play Crusader 2 in night mode even though there is no option called that way. :cool: 0 Stronghold Crusader faces and shields Stronghold Europe website Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mathew Steel 151 Posted January 25, 2015 I know the mission you mean. I really liked it, although I thought I would struggle with it since I'm not a great attacker but more of a defender :) 0 "Gofyn wyf am galon hapus, calon onest, calon l?n." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EaglePrince 230 Posted January 25, 2015 Yes, I also tought it would be harder, but it was much easier then I expectet. I guess one should be able to win it even without going around, but either way, it is important to attack silently, from the dark. This does make it possible for us to make interesting war scenarios! 0 Stronghold Crusader faces and shields Stronghold Europe website Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
