The Old God has left the world and the pretenders are awakening and coming out from hiding. You start the game by designing one of the pretender gods that will compete for true ascension to godhood. The type of god can range from a magically powerful arch mage to an ancient kraken or a mystic monolith that people pray to. Your pretender controls one of over sixty different nations and with the help of that nation he will spread his word and battle the other pretenders. Dominions 3 is a turn based strategy game. You can play single- or multiplayer (1 - 23 players) with simultaneous turns. There are more than 1500 different units, 600 spells and 300 magic items in the game. The game also features a medieval musical score by Erik Ask Uppmark and Anna Rynefors, both awarded the title of Musicians of the Realm by the Swedish Zornmärkeskommiten. Dominions 3 is a highly detailed game and a 300 page pdf manual is included in the download.

Could someone point me in the right direction to find a working version of CBM mod , please?

Because I'm a new member, I can't directly link a URL. But let's say you typed in z7, followed by .invasionfree and then perhaps a .com, with maybe /Dom3mods/index.php? a bit later, and followed the question mark with showtopic=998, you might just get a topic which had CBM 1.94 in it.

The download link there is working fine, by the way, I tried it just now (20:30 BST 30/07/2013) to check.

thanks

Might be missing something in that url. All that gave me was the invasionfree page for registering a domain.

Here's a direct link, if that first one didn't pan out.
I believe CBM 1.94 is the newest version, correct? Pretty sure this is it.

Thanks again.

Still having the same issue. I extract the mod into mods folder, enter the game, enable the mod, go to choose pretender, select an era, game CTD's with message: bad#selectweapon.command

OK two questions:

- Which version of Dom 3 are you running? (because it should be 3.28 at this point, although 1.94 will work with 3.27)
- Are you trying to run any other mods at the same time?

Looks like it may be 3.00 . Thanks. I'll have to find the update patches for the game. I assumed since I just did the digital download, that I had the most up to date version. I guess that is what I get for assuming.

3.28 breaks the game for whatever reason. 3.27 works fine, added a mod and it isn't crashing at that point as before, so maybe that has it all worked out. Thanks. I almost gave up and just waited for Dom4 to come out.

The most recent patch for Dominions3 is v3.29, which you can download from the illwinter home page. (patch links are near the bottom of the page under "Updates")

Can you please elaborate on how v.3.28 breaks the game? IIRC it was patch 3.27 that broke a few mods due to a change in how modding commands for magic sites worked, but the vanilla un-modded game worked totally fine. But AFAIK nothing changed between patch 3.27 and 3.28 that would "break the game" in any way.

So if you are having a problem with patch 3.28, can you please provide more detail on the issue as maybe there is an unknown problem that needs to be addressed (and is still present in 3.29 that we are unaware of).

With 3.28, the game won't start at all. I click the icon to start Dom3, the screen goes black, then "please wait" appears, then CTD and message about unable to create config file or something like that. 3.27 the game starts up fine. I added CBM 1.94 and the mythology mod and neither crash the game, but I haven't played any rounds yet. LIfe called me away just about that time. lol

I'll go check on 3.29. Thanks for the info.

3.29 does the same thing. Click icon to start game, black screen with please wait, CTD, message that says, can not create config file

OH I like that one. Too bad we can't find free invasions.

Try using "run as administrator" and see if that helps.

That worked. Odd, it made me enter my CD key again when I did it that way. Had to dig up the old email from when I bought the digital download.

Thanks again. Hoping to find some time to play today.
