View Full Version : New to Modding-can't get the editor to work

I'm sure this is trivial, but I can't figure this out.

I'm looking to create a new civilization with the edittor, using the tutorial here:http://www.bclay.com/civ3maps/tutorials/AddingCivs.asp

When I open the editor, however, the scenarios tab only lists "properties" not allow custom rules. If I unclick "use default rules", I still only see properties under scenarios. If I open Rules and click the tab of civilzation, I don't get the option of New.

I'm using the editor ver 1.06 and the upatched Civ III (getting the %^&* no CD patch bug)

What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance for any kind help.

First off, you should read my leaderhead thread in the tutorial section, it's a much easier read.

Also, I believe that with unpatched civ you can not add new civs. However, you can replace them.

Thanks d!

I'll check out your tutorial. I may end up springing for civ 3 complete as I can't get around the bug and the various mod packs look so intriguing!
