Python is highly whitespace sensitive. Are you sure you are not mixing spaces with tabs and getting stuff that doesn't line up the way it should? The text you have pasted shows two elif's which are too far left (actually the rest of the code appears too far right). This is a common first time...

Do we trigger the sonic attack by shouting "Muad'Dib"? (obscure movie reference)

In the books, a lasgun striking a shield results in both being destroyed. It would be useful only as a suicide attack. It is not very clear if a single hand weapon striking a city shield would be enough to destroy it. Probably, not many people tried these experiments :-)

This sounds very interesting. But, it is impossible to tell what is *new* from these huge screenshots. If you can write a few bullet points describing what you added, then probably people will be more interested to download.

I was not able to download the dropbox link sent by JosEPh II (no permission). But I was able to download from another forum participant. I have copied it to my personal ftp site and then linked on civfanatics: http://forums.civfanatics.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=22881 There is a...

The "Dune Wars Enhanced" update from this thread: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=516476 Has hit some trouble because the author deleted his original upload. This is a copy from one user of the upload. So far it is not clear which exact version is included. But, several...

Let us not worry about Horatio's reasoning for deleting it. Let's just get some version uploaded so more people can use it. Either he, or somebody else may take it further.

If you can temporarily upload the DWE install file to any public location such as dropbox, we can put it somewhere more permanent and post the link here.

If anybody has downloaded a copy of the latest modmod, and still has the file, can you please upload it for others? If you have the file but are not sure how to upload, please post, and we will help make it available.

Please consider uploading what you have. Dune wars in particular has been collaborative, with multiple people working on the project and adding to each other's work. Even if what you have is not finished according to your bigger vision, it sounds like there are substantial improvements which...

Please ask questions on one of the current discussion threads, rather than the main sticky thread. For example, here: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=519071 The tech tree is easily visible from within the mod. I am not aware of any good way to view the tech tree for any...

It sounds like you have added a lot of good stuff. But, it is reasonable for users to expect that if some of the missions have descriptions, then all of them should have descriptions. As a modder, it may be worthwhile for you to find out how the existing mission descriptions work, and add...

This sounds very interesting! One of the challenges for espionage missions is to have the AI use them (at all) and to have the AI use them effectively. Which ones will the AI execute?

I have never seen that message, from Dune Wars or any other mod. If you reinstall with the latest official patch of the mod, without the new graphics, does this error ever appear? That will make sure it is due to the graphics update.

You have added one line to the configuration file. Please post that single line. Please make sure you have matched quotes, you have used forward slashes, and the actual directory exists.
