That error message just started appearing for me today. I have been running Gods and Kings since last week and it was fine. Today it is crashing every 10-15 minutes. I have a 9800GT. I tried updating my nvidia driver to 301.42, but it had no effect. Dxdiag attached.

I won't play without CSD now. It makes diplomacy feel more real than the gold gifting method. Because distance matters, the city states in your area feel like they belong to you. Every civ gets a sort of "sphere of influence" that expands as the diplo units get more and more mobile.

I would fear cheaper cruise missiles. The AI already stocks dozens of them and pummels you the first turn of a war.

I like the way the buildings work now. It's more straightforward with fewer to build. One question though. Is there any difference between the different diplomatic units besides their build cost?

http://civmodding.wordpress.com/2011/05/01/update-v7-0-2/ The big blue "B" button is usually the latest stable release if I'm not mistaken.

You're right. I didn't realize the city listed the culture. I should've looked into it more before posting.:(

I just saw this too. Cultural city state grants me +0 culture per turn. Running TBC (b7), CSD (v20), R.E.D., and infoaddict. I'm positive I cleared cache and moduserdata before starting this game.

Are you using R.E.D.? I think Iowa is coming from that and I think it is just a skin, not a UU. Maybe?

One thing that bothers me is that a coastal city can have a ranged land unit and a ship stacked in it and receive 3 attacks against any approaching enemies.

The notes for TBC 7.0 say: "Diplomats can now be purchased again (if using Gazebo’s highly recommended City-State Diplomacy mod with this one). The purchase modifier is about equal to buildings, so it’s a very efficient expenditure of money. The reason I did this is I feel the importance of...

Using TBC v70 (final) and Infoaddict v10 together causes the Denounce button to stop working. You can press it, but no confirmation dialog pops up and no denouncement happens. If I remove Infoaddict from my mods folder, denounce works fine.

The instructions in the first post say to delete VanillaBReq.xml if using Thal's balance. Is this still accurate? I don't see that file in the City State Diplomacy Mod (CSD) (v 18) folder.

That's a great idea! I've been playing with your mod pretty much since your first releases and I've completely lost track of what is in/out/experimental at this point. :lol:

I did. I always do. I'll finish up that Arabia game today and then try clearing cache and deleting and reinstalling all the mods.

I don't have Barbarians! installed. I never even downloaded it before so there can't possibly be a trace of it on my machine. At least this poor little landlocked guy caused no trouble. It was entertaining to watch Sidon archer it to death.
