After logging a solid 70 hours or so on V25, I agree with most of what has been said. Gold is never an issue, volcanoes are out to destroy human civilization, and for whatever reason the AI often turtles (which may have to do with them misreading the strength of their garrison). I have also yet...

I agree with this entirely. The problem I've always had with Civ is that by the time I'm able to build a handful of spearmen, they're obsolete. I never get to feel like I am having an epic ancient war. To be fair, this is waaaaaaaay less of a problem in C2C than in the vanilla game (I seem to be...

Interesting article. The comments on the article are especially interesting food for thought. Epic endgame focus would be welcome, but aren't we talking about BILLIONS of years in the future? How in the world would we get there?

If the SVN is downloaded and installed, will it make current saves unplayable?

Press the windows button on your task bar. Where it says "search programs and files," or something along those lines, type "dxdiag". This will take you to a screen that has all of your system specs. One of the tabs on the top will have to do with your graphics card specifically. Hope this helps.

I posted this a little while ago, but I think that it got lost in the shuffle: http://www.futuretimeline.net/ The site has a great general structure for a future timeline as well as some interesting ideas that C2C could draw from for tech inspiration or civilopedia entries.

I started a game yesterday. Let's see how far I can get in the next week or so, and I'll post the save.

Looks like the save require v20. I have v24. Is there somewhere I can install/revert to different version without screwing up my save games?

Great, thanks! I'll follow the story closely as it goes (of course, NOT reading the parts that mortals are not supposed to see), and if the time comes that I need to sub in, I'll make sure I'm ready to roll. I just discovered DI games a few weeks ago (where have I been? :rolleyes:), and would...

Subbed! I've also volunteered to be the backup mortal over at the FfH2 sub-forums. I posted a few questions there too.

Heck, why not. I'll be the back-up mortal. I've been wanting to get involved in one of these for a while but haven't had the guts to nerd out and do so. I'm in. Let's make sure that I have the correct version of FfH2 up and running. Which patches or modmods would I need? Is there a way to...

Sweet! I'll pour over these in the coming weeks and start to put leader names to the cultures. What is the target number of names that we would be looking for per culture?

Ah, sweet! I'm holding off until I finish my current game on vanilla FfH2. I'm pretty deep into a role playing game that I've created all sorts of history and lore for, but as soon as I am finished with it I'll check out your modmod (and leave you a comment :thumbsup:). EDIT: That is if I don't...

Is there a list somewhere of the in-game cultures that we would need leaders for?

Thanks for all your help/explanations! This is the most adult web community that I've found.

Lal. I'm too much of a critical thinker to survive in any of the other society. The Peacekeepers seem to be the least dogmatic of the factions. Spartans=War (I'm not much of an imperialist); Gaians=Environmentalism (I agree with most of their principles, but would want more discourse)...

Great! A few questions: Would the leaders be tied to certain civs or certain cultures? Would the traits be generated randomly, dynamically based on human play style, or tied to specific leaders?

I'd be happy to test this as well.

Ah good old Sim Earth. I still pop that game in every now and again. It hasn't exactly aged well, but it's still an interesting simulation. As for the other ideas of wind and water currents: both of those also influence climate an incredible amount. It would be cool if the mod tied the...

Sure, to a point. Engage in the front, attack at the flanks and rear. But against the Greeks I always felt like that was the only way to fight a battle, and I found it boring. At least against other factions you could use other tactics if you felt like it (like grinding them up like hamburger...
