    How to play on map I created

    I found the expansion files. They're under the DLC directory. I'll try the things everyone said and see if that helps. Thanks.

    How to play on map I created

    Where can I find the files for the expansion?

    How to play on map I created

    I figured out how to load the map, but it doesn't keep my starting position and none of my custom rules show up. How do I do this?

    How to play on map I created

    I haven't played Civ V in quite some time, but I recently saw there was an expansion, so I bought it and am trying to get back into it. With regular Civ V, I always made my own maps and then played them, but something must have changed because I can't figure out how to do it anymore. I can't...

    The circumnavigation achievement

    Thanks, it looks like I need to alter the XML. Luckily I know how to do that and I like the bonus anyway, so I'll try it.

    The circumnavigation achievement

    I've been trying to accomplish the achievements through Steam, and I've found that the one about circumnavigating the globe just refuses to trigger even though I've circumnavigated the globe numerous times in multiple games. Has anyone gotten this to work? Is there a secret to it?

    Boarder Cities

    In my current game the Chinese sent a settler across half the map to build a city right next to me. After that they never built another city within 70 hexes of that city. I now have it totally surrounded by my cities. I was so mad when they built there but at the time I wasn't ready to go to war.

    Easy fixes you can make to improve game play

    The first time I played the game I noticed it seems designed to have little action, for whatever reason. Everything takes too long to do and that was unsatisfying for me. So what I did was edit the XML under assets for buildinginfo and units. I reduced the build cost on everything by about 25...

    Thanks a lot, Microsoft update

    Yeah, I guess I need to change my update preferences. I'm not usually using programs that take up the entire screen so I see the messages and can stop it. Now I'm off to see how much of my game I lost.

    Thanks a lot, Microsoft update

    I just had to come on here and vent. I had been playing Civ 5 for a few hours and was just about to save the game and shut down for the night when all of a sudden the game shuts down and I get a weird error message. It turns out Microsoft update had downloaded updates in the background and begun...

    Save question

    I've been using the same few names and saving over and over on the files, but then it asks me if I want to overwrite and I have to say yes. I should be able to just already have a suggested name according to the manual and that's what I'm looking for.

    City governor

    I have a lot of cities that are puppet states because I conquered them. Their governors keep wasting my time and money by building things like armories and military academies when we all know they're never going to build any units. Is there any way I can set a build priority, like focus on...

    Save question

    The manual when talking about saving says you can either accept the suggested name or choose your own name. But mine doesn't suggest a name; it's blank. I'd rather save like in Civ IV where it just gives you the civ and year or something. Does anyone know how to get the game to provide a saved...

    Where does the game install

    Easy question, but when I was installing the game I read in the little booklet that came with it that it would install a full manual on the hard drive, so I wanted to read this manual but I can't figure out where the game is installed. Can someone tell me what directory the game installs under?

    Worldbuild your ideal start!

    The most important thing for me is a city that has resources, but also can grow. So I need a few food tiles like corn or pigs, but mostly I need forests and hills. The forests and hills have to be grassland, not plains, or else they don't get enough food to keep the growth going. And there...
