CIV Gold 5.2
------------
July 26, 2009
CIV Gold is a civilizations mod for Civ4 that combines serveral of the most popular user-created civilizations, while applying standards for graphics and content across the board. It can be used as a standalone mod to give users more options in their games, or it can be used by mod-makers to add a “plug-and-play” civ component to their projects.
With CIV Gold we are attempting to create the “definitive” civ add-on for users and mod-makers, alike. This pack is meant to be focused, complete, and comprehensive.
Version 4.0 contained 90 new civilizations and 24 new leaders for existing Firaxis civs. In version 5.0, that number has increased to 120 civilizations and 58 leaders, in addition to several new leaders for 4.0 civs.
NOTE: This is a very big mod. Loading time may be up to 15-20 minutes.

CIV Gold Credits
----------------
Giving credit in a project like CIV Gold is a logistical nightmare. Over a period of several releases spanning 5 versions, components are added, removed, replaced modified, etc. An original civ may, over time, have the text edited, leader replaced and unit redesigned to the point where it is almost a new civ.
Likewise, contributions are often cumulative. A new unit is designed. Someone adds a new weapon to it. A third person does some re-texturing. The fourth supplies some missing pedia and strategy text.
Bearing in mind the complexity of collaboration in the project, the following represents my best attempt at crediting all those community members who played a role in brining this project together.
It's important to note that some individuals are being acknowledged because, although their original work may have been removed or replaced, their inital contribution remains highly valued.
