Known Bugs / Troubleshooting :
Spoiler :
- There is a bug in the StrategicView of the Complete Edition version for now, because of this there is no SV icons for the new modern units.
-If you encounter the save game bug :
1/Dump all the cache .db files (Documents/My Games/Sid Meier's Civilization 5/cache/ie. xxx.db etc etc
2/Start game
3/Re-tick the 2-3 Hulfgar mod files depending on which game you're playing(it will load in correct order)
4/Load save game (make sure it's not one of the corrupt saves)
Do the cache thing every time before you start the game and it should work and you shouldn't get any more corrupt saves.
Advice : save often, check the size of the save game file : if it's 12ko it's corrupted and you need to restart the computer to get a chance to make valid save game. If it's bigger than 12 ko (usually over 500ko) then you can play further, just check the next save game.
- Graphical Glitches (icons replaced by other graphics, usually black squares) :
Disable "GPU Texture Decode" in Civ5's Options menu.
If you have the savegame bug or the broken tech tree try the Multiplayer Modpacks and start the game as Single Player.
Make to sure to clear the cache and delete the savegames before starting a new game.
How to report bugs :
1- Enable logging :
Open config.ini (in ....\Documents\My Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 5\), at the start of the file enable the fire tuner to connect to the game :
Change "EnableTuner = 0" in "EnableTuner = 1"
- search for "LoggingEnabled = 0" and set that to "1"
- Enable the Game Database Validation by setting 'ValidateGameDatabase = 1' in config.ini
- Save the file, close it, start a new game to generate the log files.
2- Join the files Lua.log, Database.log and XML.log to your post :
Those files are found in
...\Documents\My Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 5\Logs
3- Join a Save Game to your post :
Savegames are in : ...\Documents\My Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 5\ModdedSaves\single (for mods)
or ...\Documents\My Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 5\Saves\single (for multiplayer modpacks started as single player game)
To clean the Database delete all the files in ...\Documents\My Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 5\cache
IMPORTANT : If you have an illegal copy of Civ V sorry but I can't help you.

Note : The mod was not tested with the last version of Putmalk's mod. There was some report of compatibility problems.
Ynaemp must be loaded BEFORE my mod
Earth TSL map
Thanks to Grishnikov_007 for this hint !For those wanting to play this mod on an Earth TSL map, there's a map somewhere on this forum called Play The World BNW edition. Since this is a lua file, it doesn't require you to load a scenario, so if you want to play Earth with more than 22 civs, load this map with DLL - Various Mod Components - 34 Civs and you can play earth with this mod, custom settings, 22+ civs. Just thought i would let the people who want to play YNAEMP know, this is a very good replacement.
The Mod is in english, translated in french to 90-95% and german 80-90%
WARNING: Razing the city that has control over custom improvements (lumbermills, oil refineries,...) may (will?) result in a major drop of the resource supply.
