Hi all, Apologies for the radio silence on this. I was a fool thinking I could manage work, med school and working on a mod. Anyway, you'll find attached the whole modbuddy project which you're welcome to modify in any way. I'm throwing this open to the whole community. Again, I'm...

Thanks both of you for your diligent bug hunting, and for helping people find their install paths. I'll have to add more cities to the mix. Fool that I was thinking 15 of them would be enough. ;-) The icon issue still continues to confuddle me. Of course, I won't be able to get around to...

Dude, that's totally awesome. I'll definitely include the German language text in the next version, if that's okay, with attribution, of course! Thanks so much. I planned on writing the French language text as well (appropriately!), so at least we'd have EN, DE and FR covered. ;-) As for...

Thanks! Yeah, I had commented it out because it was causing the whole mod to break. I haven't had a chance to revisit it yet (between work and Med school, the weekdays are hard to find time in!), but I had planned on poking around a bit more deeply. It's definitely on my list of fixes. I...

Maybe I should add some Dief the Chief. But then I'd have to cancel the Arrow. And you'd get nothing in return except a bad CBC special... Hmmmmmm.... Rebrand the broadcast tower as "Bad CBC special". Voila!

Awesome! We should put together a Commonwealth Pack to include most of the Commonwealth nations! I'll give this a spin tonight. I noticed in your screenshot that the Title for the leader in the Pedia entry seems to be missing a text entry or it was incorrectly added.

Hmm, thanks for the suggestion. What specific settings did you use?

Version 3 is now available here and on the Mod Browser! Yeah, as soon as I noticed that you could build the Arrow right from the ancient era? I know I'd messed something up really badly. Oddly enough, the thought of using the RCMP never even crossed my mind! Firstly, credit given where...

That's a good observation. However, Peacekeepers (and by virtue of that Paratroopers) are unlocked with the Radar tech, which is a modern-era technology. That being said, I just noticed that the description says it's industrial era. Whoops! Added to the Known Issues and notes-to-self.

:-) I hadn't even noticed that; good catch. Dominion of Canada would definitely be appropriate. Thanks, I've added it to the known issues (as a note to myself mainly).

All right, made a whole bunch of changes and additions, and this civilization now contains everything you'd need to be playable. There are a bunch of oddities (icons look wierd) which I have no idea how to fix, but if you know how to squash bugs, I'd really appreciate your assistance! Check the...

Thanks for the great suggestions. I'm happy to redesign both (given that I haven't left the drawing board with either idea yet!), but I'd be curious as to why you might suggest the paratropper instead of infantry as the replaced unit for the Peacekeeper? I had agonized over whether to include...

Hi there! Find attached (and available in the mod browser) my first attempt at a civilization, Canada. This currently comprises a unique leader (Sir John A. MacDonald), a new trait (Trade Surplus, +2 gold for every strategic resource) and two unique units. Canada's unique units are the...

You're lucky. I played through several years this evening and have uploaded my images to my server to be processed at some point tomorrow. I had to go ahead and reduce the image quality of all the photos as I ate up 350MB bandwidth today alone. All the images are now half to one third the...

Well, since I didn't have my notebook with me at work when I posted the story, here are a few important dates that I neglected to chronicle: 920BC: I have just recently been informed that all three of our cities are connected by roads. This is an important step in the development of our...
