City List Generator: Text --> XML

thamis · Nov 28, 2005

This little application converts a text file of a city list to XML code, which you can copy & paste into your MOD's XMLs.

CONVERT CITY LISTS HERE

This tool
- Creates the content for CIV4CivilizationInfos.XML
- Creates the content for CIV4GameTextInfos_Objects.XML

This is particularly useful when converting city lists that are in a text file (or in the CIV3 editor), such as from calgacus' list. Simply copy and paste the city list (separated by [ENTER] key) in and let the program convert. Obviously it puts the same city name for every language.

This tool is useful if you are going to do a fully-fledged MOD which uses XML in order to completely change the civilizations (useful if you do several maps). If you only want to make one map, I suggest this tool.

Great. Now does anyone have city lists for Civ 4?

thamis · Dec 2, 2005

See the link to calgacus' city lists in the first post here.

I've got a city list for my california civ, and I am so thankful for this.

Excellent Idea! Cant wait till this is done. I just noticed looking at your example of the unfinished product, that you allow for filling in things like adjective and name however-and this may be the unfinished part, I didn't notice any fields for the rest of the identifiable fields ...IE: the Civilopedia entries and such. Is this what your working toward? If so KUDOS! Cuz that would really take the eyestrain out of looking for and changing all this stuff just to add a custom civ.

I'm not going to do the unfinished part. It's much easier to use one of the many existing CIV-editors that are all around this forum here now. The only thing none of these editors has is a quick way to convert CIV3 citylists.

Oh, and I generally suggest using XMLSpy Professional or Enterprise version... includes a superb grid view.

Thank you sir and your hard work is greatly appreciated.

Something new for me to look into.

Attached is a list of city names I used in a previous Civ version (Civ3 I think). I was a fan of having lots of city names available

Sorry, no Polish civ, though :lol:

I actually did make a Polish civ for Civ2 many years ago, but I didn't save it. I remember Casimir was the male leader and Marie Curie was the female leader...that's about all I remember from it.
