Put in about 8 hours already. The game is really good but I feel like it lacks a little flavor... it is as though there are less branches on the tree. I'm wondering if they want to build the game up with expansions and dlc but right now it is a good game that feels a little superficial.

Well we tested it over the weekend and it went well on LAN with a balanced and challenging game. On the other hand around the year 1000 one player started to get a lot of CTD's and we got tired of it after a while and quit to desktop. I'll build the corporations in the game after which I should...

Thanks, I'm still deciding if I want them to be better than regular resources or not but I might end up saying 'not' since in a lot of cases I would be forced to make players build new structures for a bonus. Hmmm... I'll look further into this.

Charlemagne = Burger King Boudica = Bootyca or Bag Lady (she looks kind of methed out and homeless) Ghandi = Macana Ghandi (translates as big stick) Suryavarman = Surly man

So I'm working on a mod that will allow pretty much every corporation to create a unique resource. Is there a good way to use a resource to grant a promotion, boost science, culture, income, production or anything else other than happiness and health? A few ideas of what I'm thinking of...

UPS, figured it out, that was embarrasingly simple. I just modified the great prophet entry. I tested it too, just founded the religion and used the wolrd builder to give myself a prophet and it worked fine.

I just realized while playtesting that my new religion's shrine is not an option for great prophets. Do I need to create like a new mission or just alter the prophets main options or what? I'm kind of lost as to where to start here and given how well things are running I'm afraid to start...

Tested it out and it worked like a charm! Thanks guys!

Try as I may I cant find what controls this, neither in the tech or terrain xml files. What would I have to change so that the great peoples of my mod can get wasted much earlier in history?

Oh dont worry, the speed of this bug hunt would put most gaming studios to shame. I could list off quite a few games that never even made it to 1.1 Any changes besides the DLL? Just wondering since I want to keep things as stable as possible. Unfortunately I bought into 1.2 so all the xml is...

I've been stuck with the same problem while working on my mod. On one hand I'm already adding content so why not add a couple of civs, on the other hand what do they actually bring to the table? For sure I want to turn the native americans into a specific tribe or even break it up into two...

I salute your skillful headbanging, it is extremely metal! I ran about 10 or 15 turns and no crash, dropped it in my own mod and no crash either. I dont have time to play a game of civ before work (I wanna call in sick and play!) but hopefully this weekend I'll see if any more CTD's are still in...

Aparently using any DLL other than the 1.1 version automatically crashes the game before it finishes loading the map (i.e. before you find out which random civ you ended up with). Probably not too helpfull.

Nice, it would be like a total conversion... INTO CIVILIZATION. If someone did this mod I would love to see it start in the nomad period and still see nomadic tribes until late in the game.

I would make the religion choices Free Religion, Mannifest Destiny, Antitheism and Fundamentalism I guess. As for actual realigions how about Catholic, Protestant, Judaism (was this a big deal in ww2?), Orthodox (russia, mediteranean) and Millitant Budhism (Japan).
