Its not the Bull installation, that's working fine.
Its the Bug installation that's bugged some how.
Previously, under Ubuntu 10.04, 32 Bit, it would install as a single player no problem. Bull after, all fine. BUT...Hmm big...err
Now I've upgraded to 12.04 Ubuntu - 64 Bit
Now Bug installation seems to be bugged.
Single player, seems to install properly, but come up with TXT_KEY_Agricultue is missing for the ancient era. Haven't gone any further.
Try to load a saved game and it keeps crashing.
Python Debug give the culprit.
I've tried both the Single player and AltRoot installation. Changed the Alt Root path to match my Civ 4.ini path, and placed it in various folders, both My games/Beyond the sword.
and C:/users/(user name)/Program files/Firaxis Games/Civ 4/Bts Copy here and one in ..../Assets/Python (all abbreviated) Paths are correct.
I've used CivAltRt.py file before successfully to load a mod under Linux, so I understand how it works, but I can't get it to recognise my Bug path way.
How can I have root path wrong.
I've tried the following paths
rootDir = "C:/Program Files/Firaxis Games/Sid Meier's Civilization 4/Beyond the Sword"
rootDir = "C:/Users/brian/My Documents/My Games/Beyond the Sword"
2nd one works with Rise of Mankind - A New Dawn.
I don't want to load bug as a mod, I want it installed all the time.
I've used Rise of Mankind..etc...with bug installed as single player, not a problem, Bull, Bat, Buffy all installed not a problem. Mods CivAltRt.py used not a problem under 10.04 32 Bit
I've copied this file about to the Civ IV.ini directory, the assets/python directory, I'm out of ideas..any help??
64 bit Runs great, but problems with bug installation.
*Edit* All fixed now, I have to install on Drive H or a virtual drive for wine, under 64 Bit. It would seem that the version of wine has installed a virtual drive for your games and you need to reference the links to that. I've linked H:/My Games/Beyond the Sword. and it now works fine, no errors.
It may have been that way ever since I installed 64 bit, but because I play modded civ mainly, I've never noticed before.
Thanks for your effort, all solved fine.
