Invisible buildings in colony view

from GalCiv3 Forums

Just purchased the game and started a map in the 2.5 patch.

Around half of the building types don't have an icon in the menu or when I place them on the colony.  Central mine, learning centers, farms, etc. have no graphic.  I can build them but it's getting difficult to remember what I put where and obnoxious to have to scroll over everything each time.

Anyone know why this would occur or what I can test to fix?

Have you used the Steam "Verify files" option to make sure your install is complete?

I did - it said it replaced 2 files but I didn't notice an impact.

I'm playing as the Torians, it seems to only be affecting buildings that are specific to their tech tree possibly? I loaded a game as the Terrans and didn't see any of the offending buildings as options from their tech.  I didn't progress into the game to see if the Terran versions would have the same problem.

Are you on Crusade or the base game?  I played long enough as the Torians to build a learning center, and it did have an icon, both in the building list and on the planet after it was built.  If you're on the base game this might be something that got messed up in the 2.5 update.

I'm playing Crusade.  I think the graphic files for the Torian might be in the Mercenary DLC.  Is this an oversight?

Oh, that could be.  I think the Torians did show up first in the Mercenaries DLC.  I'll mention it in the bug_reports section of the Discord chat.

Thanks for the report.  We'll look into it.
