Live 4ever! Or die trying
Sorry BLubmuz - I've been watching them come through and thinking 'lucky me, not having to deal with them' .Can you maybe give an help on the crazyness of the warlords present mod? (see my posts above)

I'm running vista, its 32 bit and have just updated to SP2.
My asset checker also reports no errors
EDIT: having done the update above I've tried it again and its still giving me the error. the only non- standard thing I have is blue marble and I can't remember if thats in warlords (also I think it shouldn't affect HOF mod)
A new save from todays test: View attachment 223044
@BLubmuz, do you have BM as well? Are you guys sure you don't have something in customassets that might be causing this. Assetchecker doesn't look there.I guess it's not an OS problem. Is it possible some minor mistake in the new mod?
Moment: you posted this file (HOFSettings.txt)@BLubmuz, do you have BM as well? Are you guys sure you don't have something in customassets that might be causing this. Assetchecker doesn't look there.
Sure, i have Blue Marble installed, but never had a problem with 003, not even now. I've tried to start a game with 003 and everything was OK, no red messages. Also Vanilla works properly, and i just submitted my first game with Buffy and it's accepted (#17614).
I may have made a mistake but I can't think of what. I have installed the same files you have and the checksums are different than yours. I do not get a warning message.
I wouldn't read too much into the message not showing up on a save load. The checksums warnings are only displayed on the inital start of a new game.
The ModCRC are the only ones that have changed since 3.17 updated Vanilla's DLL. The AssetChecker say my files are good too. The thing is that I don't know what Firaxis includes in their checksums. I have had good success with AssetChecker but you could have a file somewhere I don't check that Firaxis does. It is either that or something OS related.
Edit: Ozbenno's save matches your's. I guess I am the only one that can submit Warlords saves anymore.
It is probably the 64-bit thing. I changed the HOFSettings file and updated the web site yesterday. I've had weird problems before. All the checksums are generated by the exe. I am not going to worry about unless someone starts coming up with the same checksums I had.Well, i'm running XP, Bestje is running Vista... not an OS problem, i suppose.
Let's make a test:
Zip your 004 warlords folder and send it to me by email (you got my address).
Then i will unzip it substituting the one i currently have.
I'll try to start a game and i'll report my results.
AFAIK the check on the mod is performed by the mod, not by Firaxis.
Last note: it won't be the end of the world, i don't play much warlords (to be honest i don't play much at all). But is a question of honor at this point.
That is the 2nd Vista fix listed. I guess that the 3rd one isn't an issue with Win7. Good to know.I believe that my problem is solved of Vanilla Civ 4 + HOF mod 1.74 not working on Windows 7. The error message is gone and I submitted a "clean" 4000bc save to the system.
Here was the simple fix:
This is in addition to all files (but not folders) already being unchecked as not Read Only (from the Vista fixes).
Sorry Denniz, i don't understand your answer.It is probably the 64-bit thing. I changed the HOFSettings file is the one you posted and i downloaded? and updated the web site yesterday. I've had weird problems before. All the checksums are generated by the exe. I am not going to worry about unless someone starts coming up with the same checksums I had.
It's still there. I have noticed that civ4 sometime get stuck displaying one thing and you have to click somewhere else to get it unstuck.I love the mod - but I've noticed that when you move over the flag in the btm of the UI you no longer get the info about your civ's chars (I think you just get your name and some other info)- is it possible to get that back?
Cheers
This is a know bug due to a missing file. Once things have a chance to shake out, there will be an new version fixing this an some other minor issues.Next, a bigger one:
On the Victory Conditions panel, in the new-look Members tab, I was looking at the Apostolic Palace voters and found that it seems to display only the latest civ to have been added to the list. I had to turn this off in the mod options to get a full list of voters.
I hadn't realized the old version had that as a feature. It is something to look at for next time.Finally, a more general problem:
The Mod is installed into the main C:\Program Files ... folder, of course. By default, the autolog appears there too, under \Mods\BUFFY-3.19.001\Autolog. I changed the option settings to make the autolog appear with all of my previous ones, in My Documents\My Games\Beyond the Sword\Autolog. This worked fine, but has changed the setting for anyone else who uses the PC (and I am not the only Civ-player in my household). This is the crux of the problem. The BUFFY mod options are held centrally, rather than for each account on the PC.
I guess it might be possible to have multiple installs of BUFFY, each of them held under the My Documents\My Games folder, and then the options set would be specific to each player. I haven't tried this yet, though, and don't know if it would allow this kind of installation.
Thanks for the quick reply. I'll look forward to the next release.This is a know bug due to a missing file. Once things have a chance to shake out, there will be an new version fixing this an some other minor issues.
Don't worry too much about this. I just had a play with the installation process and realised that you can install multiple copies - one for each account on the PC - and each person keeps their own set of option settings and their autologs.I hadn't realized the old version had that as a feature. It is something to look at for next time.
I think the solution is to change the entries in the MapFinder_CIV4GameText.xml file from
[COLOR_HIGHLIGHT]MapFinder[COLOR_REVERT] to [COLOR_HIGHLIGHT_TEXT]MapFinder[COLOR_REVERT].
The BUFFY mod options are held centrally, rather than for each account on the PC.
