4. Known issues
===============

Warning!
The use of custom content (maps, mods) can cause undesired effects (possibly,
multiplayer incompatibilities).
One of the problems caused by custom content is the fact that the modifications
made in the "Shared" property of an object will affect all the objects of that
kind in the game, therefore causing incompatibility on MP.
For playing a multiplayer session all the players must have the same maps and
mods installed.

Switching off 'V-Sync' option in your video driver options may cause twitched
animation in Town if you rotate the camera manually.

Loading a save from another language version can cause fonts and textual
problems in the interface.

Game may crash after a continuous gameplay (near 2 hours or more) and while
using several times the Alt+Tab function in this time.

Yahoo Messenger can conflict with the multiplayer, so switch it off to play the
game on the UBI.COM


The following objects become invisible in map editor if “No Eyecandies” option
was selected in game:

Dirt objects :
- Grass01
- Swamp Haze - all
- Will_o_the_wisp
Grass objects :
- Fireflies_01
- Flowergroup
- Grass - all
- Mushrooms
- Rays_01
- Rush_01
- Rush_02
Subterra objects
- Dwarf_Tubesi_02
- Fire
- Fire_column_little
Lava objects
- Firedot01
- Firedot04
- Lavachain01
- stickOfDeath_01
- StickOfDeath_02
Heroes
- Entry point
Artifacts
-Tear of Asha
-Tank


5. Troubleshooting
==================

5.1 Outdated or incorrect video drivers may cause some issues. Before
contacting support, please check you have the latest versions of video drivers
and
correct DirectX 9.0c version for you system. You may download the latest
version of the video drivers at:

http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp for nVIDIA graphics cards
https://support.ati.com/ics/support/default.asp?deptID=894&task=knowledge&folderID=27
for ATI Technologies graphics cards

DirectX 9.0c version may be found on the game installation disc.

5.2 Also, before launching the game, make sure that no other programs are
running.

5.3 The game does not support playing through http proxy. The player needs
direct (real IP) or NATed (most intranets) internet connection. In case of
firewall the player needs to open the following ports:

6668 TCP (IRC servers(chat in lobby))
40000 to 42999 TCP (Various Ubi.com servers)
44000 UDP (CDKey servers)
45000 UDP (NAT server)
42500 UDP ( CDKey local port, can be configured by the player through game
config files, "setvar net_ubi_cdkey_port = ")

8888 UDP (The Game itself, can be configured by player through game config
files, "setvar net_game_port = ")
