Pharaoh + CleopatraBuildings won't display animation(5 posts)(5 posts)

I've had this game installed for a year now, but suddenly, every game I load or begin as a new campaign, won't display the animations for the buildings when they have all their employed workers. For example, the hunting lodge appears as it does when there are no employees, the animation of the worker outside testing his bow and arrow are missing. The workers leave the buildings and go about their business as normal, but it's very annoying not to have the animations running; I can't tell what buildings are doing well and which ones really are missing workers.

I tried downloading the game again from GOG and reinstalling it. This has not solved the problem. Any ideas?

This has happened to many people, the solution that works for them is to simply restart your computer.

This still works on Win 10

Animation failed, Sprites glitch
(missing icons, flags do not appear, buildings freezes/empty, never indicate)

There is a glitch in the entire Caesar3 + Pharaoh + Zeus + Emperor series where (suddenly!) Building Animation stops working

It's impossible to play without Building Animation, you can't see if the Building works or not.
Usually a REBOOT helps.

The missing animations are caused by your computer being on (including sleep) for too long. After about 24 days, a number will wrap to negative and animations will be gone. Two solutions are available: wait another 24 days or restart your computer.

Restart your computer. All Impressions citybuilding games have this clock-related bug where animations stop working after you leave your computer on (or sleeping) for about 24 days. Restarting your computer resets it. Or wait 24 more days until the animations return automatically...
In general, Reboot, or wait another 24 days :D

Most laptops are set to Sleep and Hibernate by default.
Not surprisingly, the problem has escalated, because Shutdown has become a rarity.

I've been playing the game for years and this problem has recently arisen. The cause is not the computer being on for 24 days as it is shut down completely every night. Any more ideas, anyone???
