Well I finally got this mod to run, It was the BUG mod on my computer causing a python error. delete BUG mod = problem solved.
How do I give new custom units and buildings these abilities? ie. to bombard, archer bombard and be airbombeb? I added<iDCMBombAccuracy> tags with the percentages at the end of the unit entry in the CIV4UnitInfos.XML, but the mod gives me XML errors every time I launch the game.
EDIT: Nevermind. I should have read the XML errors more carefully, since I realised that I had modular civs (from CIV Gold) and they had each their own *Schema.XML files, which of course had no lines for DCM. I copied the according lines from the DCM's Schema files and I'm good to go!

The DCM 2.6 will not work !! The Main Menu shows no Text.
It seems there is a problem with the german translation.
I switch the language to english and now the menu is working.
is there mayba a issue with the txt files ???
EDIT just adjust the txt file a bit. now it is working in german as well
you can find it in the attachment.
EDIT EDIT
I have merge a couple of things and wondering why you have adjusted the most of
<iAsset> & <iPower> values in UnitInfos !? Is there any sense in relation of DCM or on other purpose ?

So while this mod works perfectly fine for human players, it seems to me the AI is unable to use ranged bombardment except for when it would normally use the regular city defense bombard function. So far I've only seen it use a battleship to bombard a city, from the adjacent tile despite having a range of 2. It never bombards units outside of cities no matter what.
I'm using the dll from this mod unedited, but I've merged the python and xml code with Next War and a few edits of my own. Did I mess up somewhere, or does the AI really not work for this?

I'm surprised people are still updating this mod. I assume you guys worked off the RevDCM's DCM component. So I guess the DCM in the current 2.9 version of RevDCM is outdated right? Is there any merge I can find or do I have to merge them myself (which I can do). I hope you guys improved it enough to make merging worth it.

In LoR AI use ranged bombardement, AI use and AI missions from DCM too, but that is some older version of DCM, Stolenrays is improved DCM. I think that AI use ranged bombardment only if unit is weaker than target. Cannon will fire on stack of Modern Armors, but Mobile Artillery will not fire on stack of Axemans, because Mobile Artillery can crush them in direct attack. I think that this work on this way but i don't really sure...
Try latest version of DCM.

So would you be so kind as to share the link to the latest version after v2.9? and/or the link to the svn?

Hello, everyone..
I'm new for SDK and modding for my own based on 'Dale's combat mod',
and I'm in trouble to compile the codes.
The settings wouldn't have a problem.
for the test, I tried to compile a dll with original BTS codes only, and it was succeed.
and what I am doing is compile with the codes from the DCM only
and keep getting error messages below.. for 2 days already..

I have a question about Dales combat mod
It does not allow to use the bombing option in a vassal territory against an enemy.
Working only on his own territory and enemy territory
I am separated from my worst enemy by 2 states (once vassals, sometimes not but with a very good relationship) I subsidize them and provided weapons when my enemy attacks them. But sometimes I must intervene and when I send my armies in the allied cities, impossible to bomb my enemy.
Which line of code should I change and in which file?
Sorry for my bad english, not my mother tongue.

I'd like an answer to voleur's question too. Would also need it to work in neutral territory, that is, if I'm fighting Japan, but we're inside Babylonian territory, need to be able to shoot at them.
Also, how would one go about making a unitcombat for Mounted_Archer that has the same bombard abilities as an archer?

I know this is old post and has been a long time but this is this still available for download? the link does not work
Seems that the whole mod (not just the source code) is on SourceForge:
https://sourceforge.net/p/dcm319/code-0/HEAD/tree/trunk/
Can be downloaded through "Download Snapshot"; will just have to rename the folder to "DCM" (to match the name of the ini file).
Oh, the link in this post also seems to work. Though the SVN version is apparently a little bit more recent.
