I was trying to get 31 civs onto a huge map (like in Civ3), but it looks like that it isn't possible in Civ6 (console version). Does anybody know if I can get the game to allow more civs on a map if I lower the number of city states on the map, or is there a hard limit to how many are allowed?

The discussion of barbarian civs in the pinned "Feature Requests" thread got me thinking a lot about ways to redirect the game away from an exclusive focus on the expansion of urban states, but I'm not sure where those thoughts will lead. It might not be something doable within the framework of...

I'm reading James C. Scott's Against the Grain: A Deep History of the Earliest States (Yale, 2017) and while a lot of its premises are familiar to me, I was surprised about two things that I thought would be cool to add into an epic mod (i.e., mine). First, Temples were production enhancers...

Is it possible to make a luxury resource a prerequisite for a unit? It appears to be fine for buildings (I've just built an Elephant Stable with an ivory prereq), but I'm finding that I can't build units that require silver (which I've set as a luxury resource). I don't know why it's taken me...

...like Freeciv or C-evo, but with Civ III graphics (especially) and mechanics? I gave up modding Civ3 back around 2018 when I created a bug in my mod that I could not figure out how to fix, and haven't played any Civ titles until last week, when my nephews convinced me to try Civ6 with them...

I lost my Vanilla and CTP install disks (thankfully my Conquest disk has always been safe and sound in my CD drive), and so I bought Civ 3 Complete for 5 bucks and installed it on my 'new' (2nd hand) laptop. Then I copied and pasted my entire Civilization III file folder over to the new...

Can anyone help me identify this unit and it's maker? I had the PCX on file for inclusion in my unit lines, but now I can't figure out where I got it from! It's not one of Sandris' Mongols or or Balam-Agab's Eastern Empire units or Virote_Considon's Steppe warriors or a Hun, least not as far...

Title pretty much says it all. I when I move from the ancient to medieval era, for example, I get a free tech -- and I don't even get notified? I want to prevent this, if at all possible, but I have no idea if that's even possible, let alone where to go in the editor. Any ideas?

I've modded my governments and have changed the default government to the one occupying the 7th slot in the editor. It's flagged as "default type" and yet for some reason, all civs seem to start with the government in the second slot in the editor (where "Despotism" is in Vanilla). Am I...

So what am I missing here? In the Scenario Properties, I've selected only 19 civs to be playable on my Europe/Near East map. Then I've placed 19 Starting Positions on the map, and assigned one of those 19 civs to each. Aaaand for some reason, that doesn't work consistently. Some of the...

What's this I'm hearing about a Civ 3 clone game?

Hey Guys, I seem to have done something stupid along the way and now Sacrificing an enslaved worker provides Zero culture. Any idea why that might be?

I have had it with these events shooting certain civilizations into the middle ages while the rest of us struggle along in the classical iron age! First thing, then, is no more UUs. But my question is this: how do I prevent Golden Ages being triggered by Great Wonders? I could unflag all...

I get an "Access Denied" message after I try to save my changes to the Civpedia.txt file. I have unclicked "read only" in the properties for this file, and that doesn't help. Any ideas? Modding is going to be tough if I can't change any files in my Civ3 directory! I knew I should have...

Why is it that, no matter what I do, I can't get the startup units (Settlers, Workers & Scouts) to not appear on startup? I select "None" for each one of those categories in the "General Settings" part of the editor, I preplace all my cities, and...on startup I get all these extra units I don't...

There wouldn't be some trick which y'all are aware of but I ain't, whereby an improvement goes obsolete once a city or empire becomes a certain size? Walls become unbuildable (but obsolete too?) with city size, but can that be done to custom improvements too? The Forbidden Palace needs a...

Assyrian Unit Requests All the more reason to make some Assyrian units: These are the ones I already use conversions for, and so most eagerly would like replacements for: 1. Kisir Sharruti (regular native Assyrian infantryman of the standing army, rather than foreign levy auxiliaries)...

Stupid question, easy answer: what's this resourse supposed to be called? I got it off Colonel Kraken's collected C3C resources from all the Conquests, but I can't find it in any of the Conquests BIQs. Anybody know what it's supposed to be? Thanks-tanks, Mithadan.

I just had a crash to desktop tonight, and thought "oh no, now what?" So I ran the SAV again (it was in debug, which was nice) but this time I didn't have the CTD. So what gives? Does the game just sometimes give up the ghost? Memory problems? Crappy computer? Stuff like that, or should I...

Anybody recognise error messages like those attached below? They only happen (so far) when I open the Scientific Advisor screen when playing as the Romans. You'll notice that the last bunch of techs that I added to the game are not shown in the error-ridden screenshot, but they show up for...
