In case anyone else is having this problem, I did indeed solve it. Within ModBuddy, Tools --> Options --> Civilization V --> General, There are paths for "Custom Civilization 5 path" and "Custom Civilization 5 User path." A checkmark allows you to change them. Modbuddy had...

I have had trouble getting my mods to load. It would seem that any changes I make after the first build are not recognized in Game until I rename the Mod. WTH? It's bad enough that I have to copy the mod over to the game directory manually. I saw someone else had this problem? Is there a...

I am a beginner myself. Welcome. I think your problem with deleting techs is that deleting Future Tech screws up the victory conditions code written into the game. In other words, it tests to see if you have researched Future_Tech, and if you have, you get so many points for having the full...

I have figured out at least in part what has been happening. I normally delete my old compiled Mod version from the Mods directory, then copy the newly compiled mod over. I made some very small changes, such as the cost of a research tech.... and I found the changes aren't updating. When I...

Two screenshots are included below. Also note that the tech prerequisites didn't load. I want to handle this one problem at a time, but it is noteworthy as it may be related. Also, yes, I had added a second reference to the XML in the actions to try and get a different result... it had no...

Civ Fuehrer, Those are some great suggestions. Renaming the files without numbers and removing extra tabs did not change the final result. I have separated my files out to help me when debugging.. they are easier to turn ON and OFF that way. Thanks for the tip. Thank you for help.

Yes Yes... Irony is a literary device and to apply it to one's life is a technical misnomer, although it is accepted in casual American English Lexicon. One can construct a metaphor of one's life, in this case a debugging exercise, as having a plot... at least I thought it was unexpected the...

*snip* and answering in that way is also not appropriate. Report posts, if you have a problem with them.

So, I decided to try an ambitious little project... redesigning the Tech Tree. There are some good mods out there to steal/borrow/learn from... AHEM. So everything is going swell. I type up a frenzy... and yeah my MOD is ready to load. I find that all my new techs in the game have the...

Yes. I don't know what this bug is, but I know Unofficial Patch II mod fixes it. Just search for unofficial in the online mod section.

As per the usual, as soon as I humble myself and ask for help... it occurs to me. Every set/where pair needs an update and /update immediately before and after. Well thanks for being here as a sounding board! I'm off to go code crazy.

Hey All, I have been reading Derek "Kael" Paxton's "Modder's Guide to Civ 5" version 1.00 and studying the game files, what not. As all programmers should, I decided to make a very small mod and then test it. So this mod correctly changes the start year to 6000 BC. However, I can't...
