I found an odd graphical glitch in the map maker. It happened in 3.2.0.330 as well as the latest unstable release, 3.2.0.336.

I start the game, open the map maker, change language and then the terrain looks like this:

#

If I go back to the main menu and into the map maker the terrain looks fine. If I change language again in the map maker the terrain looks like this once again. It's hard to see but it seems to be the trade scale icon:

#

When zoomed out it looks fine

#

It seems to be the grid that messes it up. If I turn off the grid overlay in the settings these black boxes disappear

Whoa, what a mesmerising pattern

I tried switching between English, German and Swedish

On the phone on full screen it looks like the phone's graphics died

Haha you should see what it looks like when you look around

That is a weird one

#

It probably also happens on 3.2.0 proper

Just tried, and it does.

I think I know what's going on

#

On android it changes other images

No need to go back to the main menu.
Clicking on the glitched "Data" button, and changing the Terrain Set to another one, fixes all graphical glitches. 👀 (map terrain is fine again, broken UI and images are gone)

I noticed too that when switching between languages, custom languages are no more applied.

For example:

  • I start the map editor with custom-french language (which is in Caesar III/fr-custom)
  • I switch to english (which is in Caesar III/english).
  • When going back to custom-french language, it applies only the default french language (the .eng files in the C3 folder, not the modified .eng files in my fr-custom folder).
  • Going back to the main menu and into the map maker, the custom-french files are correctly loaded again.

Yeah the game wasn't designed to allow changing the language on the map editor

#

Thankfully I think the fix is easy

Finally fixed
