RAR graphic patch

I don't understand any of this. Are you saying I should uninstall RAR, Unzip this folder and then re-install RAR into these folders? After all, you said to put RAR1 "before" RAR, whatever that means? The folders are empty so I'm guessing this has to be added into the root of the original RAR files; my only question is how?

No, don't uninstall RAR!. Just unzip it to the scenario folder. Then open up the editor and load RAR 1.00 basic.biq, go to scenario properties and edit the paths. That is the place where you type RAR1 before RAR. Make sure there is ; before and after RAR1 (like this: ;RAR1;RAR; )
 
Okay, I did just what you said, but will this effect the "Rhye's 180x180 Earth map with RaR resources v0.2" version of the mod as well, and/or saved games of the same? Thanks.
 
Saved games no, because their biq is the old one (with out the "adding-RAR1-alteration") and if you want to mod the World map you have to add this to its biq, too.
 
No, at least for the moment you have to patch RAR with it manually. However, it is not so unlikely that those fantastic graphics will make their way in further versions of RAR ;)
 
OK I am an idiot I have read this whole thread and I still do not understand how to add this "patch" and It is suppose to be a ZIP file? when I download it it is just one non zipped .ace file? Is this correct?
 
I would like to say thank you very much for all the efforts and hard work that everyone put into this mod. I love it. I know there is another forum for that, but wanted to get that on the record before I ask a question.

I like your easter egg ;)

I have noticed the majority of the pcx files appear in game, yet there are a few that have not yet. For example, the Mythology pic is still the Ankh, not the Minotaur. Is it just me? At first I thought no biggie, I'll just go to the pedia file and be sure the file typed matches the file pcx.

I found this text:

#TECH_Mythology
Art\tech chooser\Icons\mythology-small.pcx
#TECH_Mythology_LARGE
Art\tech chooser\Icons\mythology-large.pcx

the files are:

mythology-small.pcx

and

mythology-large.pcx

any thoughts?

Thanks
 
@ Vostos:
Try to get a version of WinRar. It should be able to open the file. At least I could open it that way.

It actually seems the I can't download any new programs for the time being :(

No worries. I edited lines in the pediaicon file to go to the correct pictures. Works for now. :)
 
Any idea when the next patch will be out?

Thanks again for the great work!
 
Will it be updated for RaR 1.01? Because I think the RaR1.01 Civilopedia patch updates the text files and stops your (brilliant :)) graphics patch from working.
