CIV3MODMANAGER 0.4

WARNINGS :

1. Do not use "install a simple mod" and "delete a simple "mod" for the following mods :
DYP
WW2 units
Realism Epic
Simwiz2 combat Mod

2. Always copy the files of a mod in A SINGLE DIRECTORY. DON'T PRESERVE SUB-DIRECTORY STRUCTURE.

3. KEEP THE DIRECTORY used to install a mod. It needs it to delete the mod

What it does :

Make a complete backup/restore of your ART and TEXT directory and civ3mod.bic

Help to manage Mods that overwrite files...
Well, just an example :

Let say that you want to install the snoopy terrains.

1. copy or unzip the terrains in a "Snoopy" directory under the folder where you installed Civ3ModManager.
Be carrefull, always copy the files in a unique directory, don't preverse, if it exists, the sub-directories tree.

2. Launch civ3MM and click "install a mod"
double-click on "snoopy" directory
Give a name to this mod (snoopy to make original)

3. The installer will create a "snoopybackup" directory where it saves all the files which will be overwritten by the mod with a .snoopy extension. When it is done, it will copy the mod to your civ3 directory at the right place. a snoopy.ini will be create.

4. To remove, just click on "delete a mod" , select "snoopy.ini" and everything will be backup at what it was before you've installed the mod.....

Message for Mod Makers (about Civ3ModManager)
Hello,

To make it the most powerfull it can be, I would have (for now) Two requests to make to civ3 mod makers :

1. if your "civilopedia.txt" or other *.txt are only new entries, please name them "Addcvilopedia.txt" (add*.txt)

2. Be very carreful in the name of your files
I got troubles when the name did not respect the original Maj and min...
For example, in the faschist patch, some files as B_01s .flc are named BS _01.flc

And again thanks to Firaxis for its fantastic Modmanager

wiwi28130 · May 06, 2002, 03:34 PM

Version 0.3 has been removed after 52 downloads

wiwi28130 · May 15, 2002, 12:49 AM

I know this tool as still a long way to go...

The "install module" works fine... for most of mods. But there are particular mods. I think of "huge mods" as Govern and Make War by ralendil. For such a mod I think I will need to make a "special install".

The "remove module" is still "so-so".
For instance, i just try the Double your pleasure Mod.
When it adds new units, no pbs. The directory created with the install is remove.

But for a new file that is created is a "original directory", the remove will not be done.

example with Double your pleasure :
This mod adds a "66BarbarianWarriorlarge.pcx" in the art/civilopedia/icons/
with Civ3ModManager v0.3, the file will not be removed when you click on "delete a mod".

Well, we will see it in version 0.4

wiwi28130 · May 17, 2002, 05:16 AM

For Two mods WW2 and DYP I had to make a special install due to some files that originaly exist in civ3 but which destination directory is not the same in these two mods.

So here is a screenshot :

Ralendil · May 18, 2002, 09:15 PM

Well it look great and it is great

.

Well I have seen a mention about Firaxis and a mod manager ????? what's that? have you improve something??? or it was simply irony

?

I think it is the last solution but not sure...

wiwi28130 · May 20, 2002, 11:47 PM

Yes Ralendil, the second answer is the right one...

I am a new fan. Can someone tell me the steps to installing new units in the games. It is confusing to me since I am new at this. Foe example, I downloaded the assassin zip file. What do I need to do to be able to select an assassin in the game? Also, how do I play the Danes?

But it will be for version 0.5 because I need to do a "special" code for your mod, as I have done for DYP, WW2... but a little bit more complex

Wow, I was the first to download, unfortunately I need sleep soon, so I won't be the first to try it out.

I noticed in the E3 Gamespot article, the XP will have something similar. I will still keep yours and compare. I look forward to trying it out since I love to use graphics mods.
