Thanks you!! it works now but I lost all of my villagers...

Thanks again!

Didn't see anyone else having this problem so, hoping it isn't just me.

The 'focus camera' only works when I am on the screen with the villager. If I click on a villager it follows them around just fine until I click somewhere else. If I remember correctly from previous games you would still get status messages from that villager provided you did not click on any other villager (building?). I am clicking on empty spaces only and it immediately de-selects the villager, which is a little annoying and makes me wonder why the focus camera at all. Or possibly I am doing it wrong lol

Other than that loving the game:)

When a villager is selected, clicking on anything else has always deselected them in all of the VV games, and the focus camera in VV4 has not changed that - it's just more obvious now, with the addition of that feature. There are many different uses for the focus camera, but leaving a villager selected while you scroll around the map or work with other villagers is not possible.

Ahh okay, thanks. Not sure I see the point to it but at least I know now

On a side note I noticed earlier that some people were having trouble with firefox and alt-tab causing their game to crash. I have firefox (xp) and haven't noticed any issues at all.

That only appears to be an issue with some people who are running the game full-screen in Windows 7.

I had the same problems with my brandnew windows 7 pc and DirectX 11
Changing the DEP solved this problem, Barbara described how to do this in this thread

Thanx again Barbara for all your help, you're amazing
You guys are so busy right now, solving all those problems and issues with all the different systems ...
you need AND deserve a huge break after getting VV4 out!!!

Awwww, shucks!! Thanks!

I have discovered a small "glitch"...I have a teacher who is highly adept in most and master in everything else, problem is that the children are only learning to farm ...I am at the point in the game where I have plenty of food and really don't need that many farmers. SO my question is there a way to change what they learn or am I stuck with this. I haven't tried another teacher as of yet (thinking I should) I will let you know if this changes anything

***Update....changed teachers and they are still only learning farming....Hmmmmmmm. This must be a bug :(*******

Hello,
My villagers keep getting stuck on the herb table. I'm not sure how it happens, I just notice them there sometimes. They won't move away until I pick them up and put them somewhere. Here is a picture.

Thanks

Bug in Fish Statue Collection. Kids successfully placed 5 scales on statue, but now when scales are found, the child takes them to the scientists instead of putting them on the fish statue. Looks like I'm permanently stuck at 5 of 12.
