Gentlemen:
I have been playing EU happily, regularly installing the patches as they have been made available. The latest patch 5 has done some nasty things to my game though (the 5b was no improvement to the situation). There are two main difficulties. First, the game has shut down any regular use of sending merchants into markets. The send button is blackened out removing it from being an option. I've experimented a bit and found that I can still send via the automatic send merchant option (sort of). However, all the accumulated merchants will be blasted to the selected market suddenly. I've also found that once in a while a market will suddenly be available and then blacken a short time later. This has never happened with the home market though, it is aways blackened.
Second, the game has reverted to a problem I incountered when I first installed the game without any patches, namely: the game now runs according to the music score and then freezes until the music begins again. Perhaps I should say the mouse and my ability to do anything freezes, but the game's internal clock continues to run. This means when I regain control the game has advanced a week or so under the 2 months per minute setting. Both of these issues are undesirable. I would appreciate any advice on these points, Thank You.
