I've been trying to get my first Civ into the game for a few days now. My original thought was to try to convert the Confederacy from the Civil War scenario into a playable Civ. I wasn't having any luck with that, so I decided to try just making a basic Civ first and seeing what I could do from there. I even tried keeping it called "MYNEWCIV" and "MYNEWLEADER" like the tutorial, just to see if I could get it to show up.
I've been reading both http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=493900 and http://kael.civfanatics.net/files/ModdersGuide.pdf for references. The first seems a lot more up to date, but incomplete. Kael's work is very knowledgeable, but I feel like there are parts that must be outdated.
No matter what I do, I can't seem to get a new Civ to actually appear in the game. The mods always show up and appear to load, but even after I load the mod and go to setup a game, the leader is never in the list for me to select.
Could someone setup a blank template for adding a new civ that actually shows up in the game so I can have a simple reference to look at (of a functioning civ) while I'm attempting this? Or is there one currently out there? I don't feel like I have enough experience to reverse engineer someone else's work and know what's going on, so a very minimalist example would really help me.
Thank you.
