Have you tested it? It works for me...

No, you don't need any of the extra stuff, the code is fully functional as-is (at least with the changes I outlined) -- as I mentioned, this is the bare minimum code you need to get a functional civ. The game gives you 1 Settler by default if you don't specify starting units (you don't get the...

The main issue is that you use CIVILIZATION_ISRAEL for the civ itself and CIVILIZATION_TEST for the leader, you'll need to make sure those match of course. At the risk of pointing out the blindingly obvious, you've also commented out almost the entire code -- and you have two nested GameData...

Yes, Civ5 is pretty finicky, getting one character wrong can indeed easily lead to a civ not appearing in the selection screen. But also note that Kael's guide is based on (pre?)-release Civ5, some of the patches have made changes to the XML structure so it's probably best not to copy over any...

Legally... The EULA states the following: I'm not a lawyer so take this with a grain of salt, but my understanding is that the English translation of this is pretty much that if you create any kind of mod, 2K owns all the rights to it. To obtain the license to mod the game in the first...

If large maps don't load for you, your PC may not have sufficient (video) memory. Civ5 maps take up quite a lot of memory, which is why Civ5 maps on the whole tend to be smaller than Civ4 ones. If you don't have enough RAM to load a particular map, your game will probably freeze or crash when...

The second approach allows for localisation, the first one does not. What you might call New Sparta in English, a German might want to call Neu Sparta, a Spanish speaker Esparta Nova and a Greek Νέα Σπάρτη. If you use text strings it's fairly easy...

Been around the Civ community since '98 actually, was a little late to the party when it came to CFC (it didn't become a major site until 2000-2001 or so) :) But you wanna talk to some real old farts you gotta go to Apolyton, there are some people there that were around for the Civ2 launch ;)...

I think they'll take Walloons if they can't find anyone else, but you know how the Flemish are ;)

If you can't read the below, it doesn't concern you ;) (To the CFC mods: not sure what your policy is on non-English posts but I'm forwarding an urgent request from 2K Europe, could you please leave this intact for a day? I'll translate when I have more time. Thanks in advance.) Het Belang...

Apparently the pic link doesn't work for some folks, so here's a direct link.

For all attendees tomorrow (the current count is at 9 BTW), most of us have never met before and the most recent pictures of me online are probably 5 years old at this point, so I attached a recent passport photo of myself so you'll have some idea of who to look for at the Meeting Point. Also...

Yeah, I'm pretty much in the same boat. Any other year I could've gone on a weekday. Oh well, that's life. Maybe we can go together again on a weekday next year to see the first expansion ;)

Okay, I just had the final confirmation from 2K, everything is set as I mentioned previously. To be clear: Date: Saturday 21 August Location: GamesCom, Koelnmesse, Cologne, Germany Schedule: - 12:50: meet up for lunch, at Meeting Point in Hall 10 (see map) - 13:00 (give or take): lunch...

After talking to some of the attendees, I'm going to propose to 2K to set the VIP thing at 14:00h. If they're okay with that, we can meet at 12:50h at the meeting point in Hall 10, as indicated in this map, then around 13:00h (depending on how long it takes everyone to gather) we can go to have...

Good news, 2K assigned me 10 slots for the VIP thing, which is already more than the the number of people I anticipate to ever show up, and they even indicated that that number can be increased further if needed. So if anyone still wants to join, they now have plenty of time to make up their...

Sorry for the late reply, I've been completely swamped at work in the last week. If you want to set up a press tour or anything along those lines on a weekday and can report on it on behalf of WePlayCiv or CFC or some other site, send me a PM ASAP with details on exactly when you can/will be...

Just a quick update to assure you this is still ongoing. I'm tentatively looking at a group of around 8 people from multiple fan sites (with a bunch of 'maybes' in there that I hope to clear up soon). From CFC I'm only counting The_J in that list ATM. If anyone else wants to be added let me...

Okay, I finally got an update from 2K. The person I originally contacted was on vacation and I was swamped myself so it took a little longer than necessary for me to follow up, but better late than never. Civ5 will indeed be showcased at GamesCom and it will even be playable for the first time...

Azzaman and Dauphin won the day yesterday with 19 points each, but warpus with his exact score managed to stay just ahead of azzaman and wins the overall competition with a 2-point lead. Congratulations, warpus! North King and chegel both came in third just 1 point behind azzaman and Dauphin...
