Well I have just checked on Genghis Kai's page and he states it's ok to convert his mods to be played with other mods, so attached below is my conversion of Genghis Kai's 200BC Mod for the Giant Earth Map. Massive thanks to Genghis Kai for his original mod which can be found here in this forum - http://forums.civfanatics.com/forumdisplay.php?f=296
There are a couple of changes you should be aware of and a couple of annoying things I can't seem to solve.
Hope you enjoy!
To play just unpack to your CivIV/Beyond the Sword/Mods/Rise of Mankind/Private Maps folder and next time you load up RoM you should be able to click play a scenario and choose "GEM 200BC for Rise of Mankind".
WARNING - This is a Giant Earth Map so it's likely to run a bit slower than usual between turns, just think of it like playing a multiplayer game with a chess champion
EDIT: Just to note this should still be compatible with RoM 2.91 & AND 1.72B
EDIT: See my post on page 2 for RoM:AND 1.75 compatible version
There are a couple of changes you should be aware of and a couple of annoying things I can't seem to solve.
- I have added Athens as a city belonging to Attalus I of the Greek Republic.
- I had to start the mod with Christianity and Islam already founded in their respective birthplaces as for some unknown reason in 180BC they where randomly founded anyway!
- Carthaginian cities have no religion to start with as they didn't follow true Hellenic or Egyptian Mythological Gods, they have a wierd Civic Setup too to represent their strong belief in child sacrifice and a powerful priest caste. (Rome was dead against child sacrifice to the Gods, not the child sacrifice bit, just the fact it was to the Gods ).
- Religion spreads very unrealistically, which must be down to Civ itself as no matter what I do to the CIV4ReligionInfo.xml it still insists on spreading Taoism and Buddhism etc. in Northern Europe and the Carthaginian Cities, despite them having no contact with the Eastern Civs.
- The Han and Chu no longer have access to Longbowmen when the game starts as the required tech was a bit too advanced I thought and the whole reason they did in the original 200BC scenario was to represent their feudal society I guess.
- I have added several new wonders that RoM allows access too. Certain wonders have been placed in the cities closest to the actual geographic location of the wonder. As an example Sparta houses the Temple of Zeus because the actual location in Olympia was just a stones throw down the road. Hence Sparta now being the Hellenic Holy City too.
Hope you enjoy!
