All country colours are green

Hi, strange thing happened: During the AI turn all national colours turned into various shades of greens and cyans... Now it is quite hard to tell friend from foe, as not only city colours turned green, but all unit backgrounds too. Is there any way to get the national colours back?

That seems very strange indeed, can you show us a screenshot? I guess I won't be able to help here, but it could help the others to help you if we have a screenshot.

That is really weird. I would think that it's a corrupt installation or something. Try shutting down the game and restarting it (if that doesn't do it, you may have to go back a turn to see if it is the turn or the installation).

Is your computer screen behaving normally with others games, because all the game seems tinted somehow.

No, there is nothing wrong with it. Besides, I actually seen the city and unit backgrounds turn green during the AI turn; nothing else changed, only these colours turned green, apart from that there is no greenish tint. It seems like as if the red part on unit and city backgrounds was missing or something. Restarting did not fix it (though I strongly believed in it.)

I think it might be something with your computer and not with the game...

Believe, my system is perfectly fine. I saw the colour change. it must be something with the renderer, as apart from these backgroungs the colours of the map and the interface are perfectly sound.

For me the interface has definitively a red tint on your screenshot. I would not know how to do that as a developer, or at least I could not do that without doing some search on DirectX functions

Lets not take things personally, I prefer to say there is a problem with the game and the video driver used. can you check if Windows updated anything lately or did you update your video driver or change a settings on it? Many video cards come with some kind of 'managers' where people can tweak a lot of stuff.

Nevermind. I reinstalled it and it is fine now.
