need help BAD

Dowpman · Oct 22, 2003

i downloaded units and everything works fine for the scenario im cooking up (which you would all marvel at if i could get the freakingthing to work). i put the units in... they all work in the game. i set it up so specific units can only be built by specific civs... but when you play the game it doesnt work like that. example... i set up terrorists to be made ONLY by palestinians... yet when you enter the game every civ in the game can build them... and THAT AINT RIGHT! lol... help me!!! :confused:

wrong forum dowpman, you need to ask in the creation and customization forum

Dowpman · Oct 22, 2003

no one answers at all in that forum... i have to ask around!

carlosMM · Oct 22, 2003

sabo10, he is right, you cna ask there and wait years for an answer - people who know usually do not browse there....

actually, the Quick answers thread here might be your best bet.

And, in future, DO include the subject you need help on in yout thread title. Titles like HELP! hardly get read by veterans...

as for your Q:
if you post the bix file here I may be able to answer it.

Dowpman · Oct 22, 2003

wouldnt begin to know how to do that... ive been playing civ for a long time but only recently started to customize stuff.... im learning on the fly but im pretty well versed so far

carlosMM · Oct 22, 2003

well, zip it (turn it into a *.zip file with WinZip). Then, upload it here following the instructions in the FAQ thread.

Dowpman · Oct 22, 2003

Dowpman · Oct 22, 2003

carlosMM · Oct 22, 2003

Even zipped, it's bigger than 3 Meg? :eek:

Must be one heckuva mod!

carlosMM · Oct 22, 2003

Padma: it only depends on the graphics he includes... how a *.bix file can - well, inlcude a LOT of units in the start and it gets huge quickly.

dow: use UPLOAD (bottom of the page, small type link), not attachment. Uploads allow 3MB, attachment decidedly less.

anarres · Oct 22, 2003

If you are using the 'Add Attachment' feature when you post it is limited to 100k in size.

You can upload files (up to 3Mb) by using the Upload feature, and putting a link to it in your post. Check this post for how to upload: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?postid=957097#post957097

Edit: hehe

Padma · Oct 22, 2003

I understand that, but *most* of the mods posted here fit within the 3 Meg limit, I think. (I know some don't, and had to get "special dispensation" from TF to be uploaded.)

am looking at it

Dowpman · Oct 22, 2003

HEEEEEEEEEELP!!! does my computer hate me or what??

carlosMM · Oct 22, 2003

ah, can you specify some problems? I cannot find a terrorsit unit and I cannot find Palestine in the rules. Also, the icons numbers give trouble....

Dowpman · Oct 22, 2003

sorry this is the one without palestine.... all units work when you play the game i used pediaicons... but all civs can build units that are set up to be built by only.... say... america.

carlosMM · Oct 22, 2003

trying to play it I get an error (PEDIAICON txt and a crash

Dowpman · Oct 22, 2003
