Short description:

01 Einherjar Guardsman:
Einherjar Guardsman:
Very simple module. It just adds the guardsman promotion to all Host of the Einherjar units.
​

02 Mana Flares:
Mana flare system:
If someone pillage a mana node without using metamagic bad/good things will happen. If you pillage such a node it will flare up and magic of the node mana type will affect the surrounding area, units and cities.
Mana flares can also happen via event. In this case the flares are more powerful and have a higher chance to have positive effects.
(For more details see post 3)
​

03 Imperial Roads:
Imperial Road system:
If you meet all the requirements you are able to "build" Imperial Roads with your workers. But to prevent the "all roads on all plots" problem you can only connect your cities with this roads. This mod will try to find the best path between your cities and will connect them with Imperial Roads.
(For more details see post 4)
​

04 Elohim Unique Feature Events:
Elohim Events system:
In addition to the already existing special one time events (for visiting an unique feature with an Elohim unit for the first time) in RifE this module adds new events to the game. Now all unique features have such an event. (For the sake of game balance the new events are kind of weak compared to the original ones.)
(For more details see post 5)
​

05 Unique Arenas:
05.1. Great Circus:
Available via event. This is a giant hippodrome like the Circus Maximus in Rome. It will appear as Unique Improvement on the map and mounted units on this plot can take part in an epic race like in the Ben Hur movie or you can bet on your favorite horse/rider. It also provides happiness in the surrounding area.
In addition to that the owner gets the chance to conquer enemy unique buildings. Also the owner can build unique mounted units that can be built by his vassals.
(For more details see post 6)​
05.2 Great Colosseum:
Available via event. This is a giant Colosseum like the Flavian Amphitheatre in Rome. The ingame effects are similar to the Great Circus.
The owner can build unique melee units and unique buildings that can be built by his vassals.
(For more details see post 6)​

06 Spread Religion:
Spread Religion ability:
Ever got tired because of bad luck while trying to spread a non state religion (therefore not enough priests for 'build temple' ability) in one or all of your cities with missionaries?
Well, it seems I always have bad luck so I made this module:
This module adds an additional option to all missionary units to spread religion in a city. In contrast to the normal way the new ability has a 100% spread chance but it will cost money to cast (cost = 75 gold). The unit will be consumed after using this spell.
​

07 Spread Guild:
Spread Guild ability:
Ever sent a "Kingfisher Brotherhood" fishingboat around the whole map and then it failed to spread the guild?
This module adds an additional option to all guild units to spread guilds in a city. In contrast to the normal way the new ability has a 100% spread chance but it will cost extra money to cast (cost = 175 gold). The unit will be consumed after using this spell.
​

08 Adjust Game:
Adjust Game city spell:
This module adds a city spell to your capital city. This module is still in beta and not everything is implemented yet but you can use it for counting and adding improvements, features, bonus, unique features, plot types and other 'stuff' on the map without using the world builder and spoiling the map. You can also use it to help AI players to survive early barbarian rushes with these options.

Detailed description: Mana Flares

02 Mana flares:
Display and message note:
All applied promotions, damage and other effects will be displayed onscreen and/or in the ingame log. If you open the ingame log and click on such a message the screen will center on the affected unit, city or plot. Negative effects will be displayed in red (and positive effects to the enemy will also be displayed in red). Positive effects will be displayed in the node color (and negative effects to the enemy will be displayed in the node color as well).
​

Mana flare system:

General:
  • Lots of effects have higher chances if the cause of the flare is an event.
  • Range of the affected area:
    • Pillage (mana node will be destroyed): range 1 = 98%, range 2 = 1%, range 3 = 1%
    • Event (mana node won't be destroyed except range=3): range 1 = 1%, range 2 = 97%, range 3 = 2%
  • All damage deald by flares are not lethal.
  • Units in cities or certain improvements (tower, fort, castle, citadel) only suffer half of the damage.
  • Units with movement >= 2 can get slow promotion if the damage type is cold (or death, holy or unholy for units that are susceptible to this damage types)
  • The chance for one mana flare event in a turn is 2% for marathon, 3% for epic, 4% for normal and 5% for quick game speed. There is a maximum of one flare per turn. (This flare system won't use the event system so it will not block other events to be triggered. More mana node improvements will not increase this chance – it is always the same)

Detailed description: Imperial Roads

03 Imperial Road system:

I reworked the whole system. Now it is not depending on the Civ4BTS event system which solves some problems.

Requirements for Imperial Roads:

1. Technologies: You need the Exploration and Masonry technology.
Spoiler :
2. Cities: You need between 3 and 5 cities.
Spoiler :
If your capital and 2 other cities of yours are on the same continent you are golden.
If you only have 2 cities on the same continent you need at least 5 cities.

​

After you meet all the requirements you will get a 'popup' giving you some info:
Spoiler :


Also you can decide if you want to finance a search for raw materials within your borders. It will cost you but you will get the chance to discover a source of stones:
Spoiler :

The costs and the time depends on game speed.
If you don't have any stones under your control this event will give you a 'discount' if you don't have enough gold at hand.


After that you can 'build' Imperial Roads with you workers:

05 Unique Arenas:


05.1 Great Circus:
This unique improvement will only be available via event.

Civilopedia text:
Spoiler Civilopedia Great Circus :
Civilopedia text:
Requires event to be build in the first place.
Event requires a non hill plot near Horses or Nightmares and Horseback Riding and enough money to trigger.
Makes some Circus related events available.
It will show up as an Unique Feature on the map.
+1 free Merchant to the nearest city
+2 :) in nearby cities.
+2 :hammers: and +5 :commerce: on plot.
Mounted Units on the plot can cast Circus Race.
Units on this plot can cast Circus Bet (requires the Currency technology).
The owner of this unique improvement can capture enemy unique buildings if they conquer or acquire a city.
The owner of the Great Circus can build unique mounted units that can be built by his vassals.
Can be rebuild by nearby cities after destruction. (Production of cities will add up to one production pool.)​
How to get the Great Circus:
Spoiler :
Event trigger text:
Rumour has it that the best horses (or nightmares, depends on available resource) are within your borders.
The Ratcatcher Guild has offered to cofinance and build a giant hippodrome near this valuable source to make profit with epic circus races.​

If you agree you have to pay a certain amount of money (depending on game speed and if you have marble) and deliver marble. If you don't have marble you not even have to pay more, you also have to wait longer (also game speed depending) until the Circus is finished. Note: Without marble you have to trade even with you worst enemy for marble and therefore they could get some of the money you spend (<- this will show up as pop up, amount of money depends on resources available and more factors). Note2: If the AI builds the Great Circus you could get money for marble.

After you paid and provided the needed marble a Great Circus building site will be placed next to the resource plot. In addition to that a counter sign will be placed next to it and will tell you how long you have to wait until finishing the construction. (There is some bloody delay with the signs therefore the landmarks will switch from the left side to the right side each turn).
After the counter hits zero you will get an unique Great Circus improvement on this plot.

What' the usage of the Great Circus:
Spoiler :
After you "built" the Great Circus everyone (even enemy unit) can cast circus bet on this improvement (requires the Currency technology).
This spell let you choose how much money (10, 50, 100, 500 or 1000 gold) you want to bet on one out of ten horses/riders. If you lose you lose your money but if you win you get five times the amount of your bet.

Also every mounted unit can "cast" circus race on this plot. This are epic and brutal races which can led to the death of the unit (chance to survive = 50% + unit level) (I had the Ben Hur horse race in mind) but if you survive your unit will gain experience (+ 1-6) and get the morale promotion and has a 6% chance to get mobility 1 or mobility 2 promotion. Either way all cities within range gain happiness for a few turns (Happiness timer and range depends on unit lvl).

The owner of this unique improvement can capture enemy unique buildings if they conquer or acquire a city.
The owner of the Great Circus can build unique mounted units that can be built by his vassals.

Additional events can take place if you own that improvement (similar to Olympic events in the normal game).

What to do if the Great Circus got destroyed:
Spoiler :
If the Great Circus gets destroyed a Great Circus ruin landmark will be placed on the former improvement plot. Now all players can take part in a rebuild effort. If you want to do so you need a city near to the former improvement sight. All near cities can rebuild the improvement (it works like a normal building). Note: All the production of all cities will be transferred into one production pool and will be shown in a sign next to the ruin. If the sign hits the 100% you will get a new Circus improvement on this plot.

Detailed description: Adjust Game


08 Adjust Game:

Adjust Game city spell:
This module adds a city spell to your capital city. This module is still in beta and not everything is implemented yet but you can use it for counting and adding improvements, features, bonus, unique features, plot types and other 'stuff' on the map without using the world builder and spoiling the map. You can also use it to help AI players to survive early barbarian rushes with these options.

How it works:

  • To use the options you have to select your capital city and click on the 'Adjust Game' city spell on the right side of the build menu (see picture):


  • In the main menu you can choose between six options. This module is still a work in progress so some of the options aren't working at the moment (see picture):

    • 0: Game Options (not tested yet)
      • This option allows you to change (almost) all Game Options within a running game e.g. enable random seed, enable increasing difficulty or disable technology trading.
        Spoiler Game Options picture :
    • 1: Difficulty (work in progress; not working atm)
      • This option allows you to change your Handicap Type.
        Spoiler Difficulty picture :

Version 0.97 [1.31.195.0.97]
  • Added a new simple module:
    07 Spread Guild:
    Spread Guild ability:
    Ever sent a "Kingfisher Brotherhood" fishingboat around the whole map and then it failed to spread the guild?
    This module adds an additional option to all guild units to spread guilds in a city. In contrast to the normal way the new ability has a 100% spread chance but it will cost extra money to cast (cost = 175 gold). The unit will be consumed after using this spell.
    ​
  • 05 Unique Arenas:
    • Added icons with mouse over info for Great Colosseum and Great Circus in techtree
    • Some pedia txt changes/fixes
    • Also added some pedia links related with GC^2

Version 0.96 [1.31.195.0.96]
  • Added a new simple module:
    06 Spread Religion:
    Spread Religion ability:
    Ever got tired because of bad luck while trying to spread a non state religion (therefore not enough priests for 'build temple' ability) in one or all of your cities with missionaries?
    Well, it seems I always have bad luck so I made this module:
    This module adds an additionally option to all missionary units to spread religion in a city. In contrast to the normal way the new ability has a 100% spread chance but it will cost money to cast (cost = 75 gold). The unit will be consumed after using this spell.
    ​
  • v0.96 (06 Spread Religion) is not save game compatible with v0.95
  • Packed all the "00Changes..." modules in a 7-zip file under \Assets\Inactive Modules\NormalModules.
    If you want to play with one of the "00Changes..." modules you have to unzip it and move to \Assets\Modules\NormalModules

Version 0.95 [1.31.195.0.95]

Entire mod:
  • Added <AndDependencyTypes> and <bTypeDependency> XML tags throughout the whole mod to improve further compatibility
  • 0.95 is save game compatible with v0.9, v0.91, v0.92, v0.93 and v0.94

05 Unique Arenas:
  • Added an additional commerce bonus for Imperial Roads on plots with Great Circus, Great Colosseum (only available if 03ImperialRoads and 05UniqueArenas are activated at the same time)
  • Gambling House gets +1 free specialist per Great Circus, Great Colosseum
  • Great Circus and Great Colosseum provides a free merchant to the nearest city
  • Cleaned up the pedia page of Great Circus and Great Colosseum

00 Changes for other modules:
After you download my add-on you will find the new modules in \Assets\Inactive Modules\NormalModules
If you plan to play a new game with Milaga's Guns, Wyrms and Steel mod (v0.31) and/or with MrUnderhill's Fall Under mod (v1.71) you can activate the new 00Changes... modules by moving them into \Assets\Modules\NormalModules if you want.
New modules are:
  • 00 Changes: GWS Steel TraitBlacksmith Fix
  • 00 Changes: GWS Buildings BazaarOfMammon Fix
  • 00 Changes: FallUnder MageTower


00 Changes: GWS Steel TraitBlacksmith Fix:
This module makes Milaga's GWS Steel mod (v0.31) compatible with Rife 1.31.195 (because a deactivated Jotnar module removes a Trait needed for GWS)
By activating this module you will add a new Trait to the game, so it is not save game compatible. But it will cause no problems if you run it without the GWS module in case you forget to deactivate it in your next game.​

00 Changes: GWS Buildings BazaarOfMammon Fix:
This module fixes a bug with Milaga's GWS Buildings mod (v0.31). Now you can build the Bazaar of Mammon wonder.
This module is save game compatible. You can activate it and don't have to worry about it any more. If you don't use the GWS mod this module will not change anything in your game.​

00 Changes: FallUnder MageTower:
This module fixes an issue with the Mage Tower improvements in MrUnderhill's Fall Under mod (v1.71). Before this fix if somehow you get your hands on Amurites units (by capturing such an unit or using the Tolerant Trait and conquer a city) and build a Mage Tower with them the improvement will disappear after some time (because Amutites only). Now this improvement is changed so everyone can use it (but you can't build it if you are not Amurites).
This module is only save game compatible if you already use the FallUnder module v1.71 with your current game. However if you start a new game with this module and don't use FallUnder this module will not cause any problems.​

Version 0.94 [1.31.195.0.94]
  • Added compatibility tags for Derf's Claimable Tower of Eyes module.
  • 03 Imperial Roads:
    • Grammar fix
    • Civilopedia tech dependency text fix
  • v0.94 is save game compatible with v0.9, v0.91, v0.92 and v0.93

Version 0.93 [1.31.195.0.93]
  • Fixed a few english grammar 'bugs'
  • Hide some wrong "ID conflicts" with my modules
  • This version should also hide "ID conflicts" with my modules and future versions of the MoreEvents module and FallUnder module (Note: This version is already compatible with MoreEvents and FallUnder but the Module Manager will show 'ID conflicts'. Just ignore them for the time being.)
  • v0.93 is save game compatible with v0.9, v0.91 and v0.92

Version 0.92 [1.31.195.0.92]
  • Added full german translation (by jonnnes)
  • v0.92 is save game compatible with v0.91 / v0.9

Version 0.91 [1.31.195.0.91]

04 Elohim Unique Feature Events:
  • Fixed a bug with the "Guardian of Pristin Pass" Elohim onMove event.

(not save game compatible with version 0.8)


05 Unique Arenas:

04 Elohim Unique Feature Events:
  • Added a pilgrimage quest for the Elohim to the game. If you finish your pilgrimage (visit all available unique features on your map) you will receive the Wanderer trait (adventurer promotion for all new built recon units).
    Spoiler Image Pilgrimage Quest :
  • Added two new events for the Great Colosseum and for the Great Circus (only available if both modules ("05 Unique Arenas" AND "04 Elohim Unique Feature Events") are activated) (see post #5)

​

Version 0.8 [1.31.195.0.8]
(not save game compatible with version 0.75)
  • Added "Elohim Unique Feature Events" in a separate module.
  • This module works with and without the "MoreEvents" module (auto detect). So there should be no interference with the new upcoming treasure hunting events/quests and the Elohim events (<PythonOnMove> call).
  • Fixed an error with the random sea creature option and free bonus option with the Elohim Aifon Isle event (because one of the creatures and the whales bonus where removed in RifE 1.31)
  • Fixed a missing translation with the Elohim Bradelines Well event.
  • Added an option to receive a happy face in every city if you already have the Tolerant Trait when choosing the second option with the Elohim Bradelines Well event.

  • Added a nuclear explosion effect for the refinery flare.
  • Made a few adjustments and fixed a few things here and there.

Version 0.7 [1.31.195.0.7]
(not save game compatible with version 0.65)
  • Added the Imperial Roads system in a separate module
  • Reworked the whole Imperial Road system (For more details see first side post #4)
  • Fixed a bug with the Imperial Roads and the Frozen civilization (no more free units for the Frozen)

Version 0.65 [1.31.195.0.65]
  • Changed the global Mana Flare chance: Quick = 5%; Normal = 4%; Epic = 3%; Marathon = 2% (chance each turn that one mana node on the map will flares up / it's not using the BTS event system)
  • (Temporally added a "fixed" CvEventManager.py in the download so the modules can work as intended. I will remove this file as soon as Valkrionn releases the next patch (which will include the fixes...))
  • Now Mana Flares work as intended when someone pillage a mana node.

Version 0.6 [1.31.195.0.6]
  • Fixed a bug with the chaos mana flare. (Now the random change of the terrain type plot is permanent. The temporally change could cause problems)
  • Added a few new effects for some mana flares.

Version 0.5 [1.31.195.0.5]
  • Changed Mana Flare system to worke in a separate module

Reworked mod to make it modular​

Spoiler old non-modular version :

  • Fixed a Python Exceptions bug

Update: (v0.1.23.2)
R i f E version: (not savegame compatible!)


Update: (v0.1.23.1)
R i f E version:
Should be compatible with R i f E version 1.22.2 and 1.23.
Edit: Version 1.23 is not savegame compatible with version 1.22.2!​

Update:

Added Valkrionn's blizzard quick fix in the main download (first post / R i f E version). (savegame compatible)​

Update:
Now the mod is compatible with RifE 1.22.2
(see first post)​

Update: (will break save games)
Update for RifE 1.20:​

The most important change in this version is maybe the addition of an old system I made a long time ago in my Petra mod component and Flavian Amphitheatre mod component:

-In this version the owner of the Great Circus Improvement will be able to conquer enemy unique buildings. After you conquer/acquire a city with an unique building in it you will get a pop-up and you can decide if you want to keep it or replace it with your default building. Flavor Note: This won't work if you have an own unique building for this building type. (This is a week effect because most of the unique buildings have a low chance to survive after conquest or can't be conquered at all. If you want to change the conquest probability than go in the building xml - I didn't change it)
-In addition to that the owner of the Great Circus can build unique mounted units of all of his vassals. After you built a default mounted unit you will get a pop-up and can choose between your default unit or all of the unique units of the same unit class of your vassals.
-The same system works for unique melee units and the Great Colosseum.
-Also if you own the Great Colosseum you can build unique buildings of your vassals when you build a default building of that building type.

For more info see pictures below:​



And here is the rest of the update:

  • Elohim Unique Improvements bug fixes:
    • Fixed a bug with the Elohim Yggdrasil event when only forest and no kelp is available to upgrade (upgrades 2 forests to ancient forest)
    • Fixed a bug with the Elohim Yggdrasil event when only kelp and no forest is available to upgrade (upgrades 2 kelp to kelp forest)

    • Added mana flare event for Dimensional mana (for more info see post 2)
    • Added mana flare event for Force mana (for more info see post 2)
    • Added mana flare event for Refined mana (for more info see post 2)
    • Added/changed Earth/Law/Mind/Spirit mana flare effects: Now all the buildings provided by the mana flare have a certain duration not only one turn. The duration depends on game speed and if the cause of the flare was an event and to a certain amount on luck (rand number).
    • Added/changed Chaos mana flare effect: Terrain type of the mana plot will change temporary to a random polt: (grass, plains, desert, marsh, tundra, snow, burning sands, broken lands, field of perdition, shallows)
    • Added/changed Body mana flare effect: Haste promotion gained by mana flare will have a duration of 4 turns / added Avatars to the immune list / changed chances for promotions (for more info see post 2)
    • Added/changed Air mana flare effect: Naval units gain haste promotion with duration of 4 turns if cause of mana flare was an event
    • Added new "save" improvements for the Air mana flare. Your unit won't get blown away when standing on them. (Improvements: broken sepulcher, cage, castle, citadel, citadel of light, fort, goblin fort, guardian, ring of carcer, tower, hill gigant steanding, dwarven mine, dwarven settlement, dwarven hall, dwarven fortress, tower of eyes )
    • Added "Earth Boosom" effect to Earth mana flares (changes the plot type of the mana plot to hill if the cause of the flare is an event)
    • Fixed a bug with the promotion chance function for mana flares (a lot of the chances were 1% higher then postet in the second post)

    Imperial Roads adds and fixes:
    • Fixed a bug with the "Imperial Roads" spell (now the casting worker will skip the turn and wake up properly after the road is finished)
    • Bannor and Kuriotates can build Imperial Roads cheaper than other civilizations ( Bannor = 1/3; Kuriotates = 1/2 )
    • Updated mouse over help text for Imperial Road spell
    • You don't need stones in the city which you want to connect to your government center. The road is build from your capital to all the other cities anyway.
    • Added building sounds when a Imperial Road segment is placed on the map and removed the road spell casting effect and sound.
    • Highly increased the performance of the python mouse over help text on the Imperial Roads spell popup. (The path, costs and duration will be calculated only once and not every time you mouse over the button. My bad, sorry.)
    • Reworked Imperial Roads code and fixed a bug when you finish a road project but your worker is immobile for some more turns.
    • Added a on screen counter for the search for stones event (see picture bottom)
    • Added a on screen counter for an Imperial road project (see picture bottom)

    Great Colosseum and Great Circus adds and fixes:
    • Reworked the bet system and remove a bunch of unnecessary events related to the bet spell events. It's working like before so never mind...
    • Increased performance with the Circus and Colosseum spells.
    • Added an on screen counter for the Great Circus
    • Added an on screen counter for the Great Colosseum
    • Added the unique building on city acquired system for the Great Circus
    • Added the vassal unique building system for the Great Colosseum
    • Added the vassal unique mounted units system for the Great Circus
    • Added the vassal unique melee units system for the Great Colosseum

Mana Flares and Unique Events:

This is a Python/XML Mod mainly for Rise from Erebus 1.23 (all features of this mod are supported only in the RifE version).

This mod is also available for the newest Fall Further version (FF 051c), but not all features and bug fixes are included in this version.
Also, this mod can be downloaded for older versions of Fall from Heaven 2 (FFH2 041i) and Orbis (Orbis 024b).​


Short description:

1.0 Mana Flares:
1.1 Mana flare system:
If someone pillage a mana node without using metamagic bad/good things will happen. If you pillage such a node it will flare up and magic of the node mana type will affect the surrounding area, units and cities.
Mana flares can also happen via event. In this case the flares are more powerful and have a higher chance to have positive effects.
(For more details see post 2)
​

2.0 Unique Improvements / Imperial Roads:
2.1 Great Circus:
Available via event. This is a giant hippodrome like the Circus Maximus in Rome. It will appear as Unique Improvement on the map and mounted units on this plot can take part in an epic race like in the Ben Hur movie or you can bet on your favorite horse/rider. It also provides happiness in the surrounding area.
Update (R i f E only): In addition to that the owner gets the chance to conquer enemy unique buildings.
Also the owner can build unique mounted units that can be built by his vassals.
(For more details see post 3)

2.2 Great Colosseum:
Available via event. This is a giant Colosseum like the Flavian Amphitheatre in Rome. The ingame effects are similar to the Great Circus.
Update (R i f E only): The owner can build unique melee units and unique buildings that can be built by his vassals.

If these improvements (Great Circus/Great Colosseum) are destroyed you can rebuild them with cities near to the former site and all the production will add up to one production pool like it should be with projects after all (Note: Even enemy cities can help to rebuild it because they also will profit from the effects of the Great Circus/Colosseum &#8211; it's an area effect and also the special spells on this plot can be used by everyone.
(For more details see post 3)

2.3 Imperial Road system:
Available via event. If you meet all the requirements you are able to "build" Imperial Roads with your workers. But to prevent the "all roads on all plots" problem you only can connect your cities with this roads. This mod will try to find the best path between your cities and will connect them with improved roads.

Okay this seems to be the thread you want us to use. If Valk could link this thread rather than the original, it's be easier to find, though.

Two things-When playing as the Illians and after the frozen are in the game, when I hit the build Imperial Roads button, I get 4 messages about souls of my units going to the Frozen. It happens again when I hit the confirmation message (the one that gives the tooltip telling how much it'll cost). I also have FlatXP 1.03, Reformed Liches 1.2, and Scion Healthcare 1.2 installed.
View attachment 253587

Also I think it's one of the events contained in your mod-a traveler wants to give you information about: ... several things, such as the biggest town he's seen or remnants of the ancient world, in each case for 50 gold. I haven't tried all the options, but the ancient one definitely isn't working (or the effect isn't pronounced enough). A couple of the others didn't appear to do anything, either.

plz tell me if the modular python is working with your version.
i'm very interested in including the modular python in my mod if it's working properly...
Click to expand...

It works properly in the test version, and has been expanded to RandomEventInterface.py and CvGameUtils.py. ;)
 
My brother and I play RifE online. Whenever we start building the Imperial Road, we get an OOS error. We can reload the game and it'll start working fine from start to finish, but it's just pressing that button to start building it causes the issue.
