Replace old "template.lua" with this file and convert your map. Open lua-script, find function nORbConvWorld:FillResources() and set arResources as empty array. Like this: local arResources = {}; If no bugs there, i will update first post with this template.

My tools uses "true start location" information from xml-file, not from civ5map-file. Check my examples for "Play The World Extended BNW MARATHON" (xml-file).

Heh. Well, if I find some free time at this weekend... I can look what I can to do. But I don't promise anything. It is MY personal free time!

No, not support. But if you good in lua-scripting and have some skill, you can add custom function for random resource spawning in "template.lua" by yourself. =)

For "TSL" before start conversion you must prepare and put xml file in same folder with "civ5map" file. In directory "<converter folder>\maps" must be 2 files: - xxx.civ5map; - xxx.xml (same filename as ".civ5map"). Result for play (after conversion) you can find in directory "<converter...

Yep, i can change names for cities. But i think "Events" not working in map scripts. No reaction for any tests.

Well... I don't know, maybe something changed in past 2 years. So I can't be 100% sure. I describe for you how "citystates creation" worked about two years ago. In the process of "creating a map" engine select "set of citystates" (by random) that will be used in the game. Game engine locks...

Maybe you just enabled "Disable Start Bias" in "Advanced Game Options" ("create new game" window, after press "Host")? Disable this, if enabled.

1. Open in notepad your lua-file 2. find string: function nORbConvWorld:GetCivStartPlot(pPlayer) 3. somewhere in function body you see strings with starting positions for playable civs (ResultPos = { X,Y } ). like: elseif (thisCiv.Type == "CIVILIZATION_IROQUOIS") then ResultPos = {139,75}...

Can you send me your lua-script for check? I don't see any "my tags" in your lua-log. Like "Start generate custom map" or "Create nORbConvWorld class". You are sure created new game with lua-script from my converter? email: murmadog (at) yandex (dot) ru Nevermind. I can't understand, for...

No way to use starting location on multiplayers with ".civ5map" files. But not for "random" scripts (lua-files). xD This tools working fine for me (civ5 BNW edition). And you can test converted by this tools map: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=503633

Description Little program for convert civ5map files to lua-scripts with "true start locations". Sorry for typo, english is not my native language. Decoded part of civ5map files: plots + terrain types; features (ice, jungles, marsh etc.); improvements; resources (type+count)...

2013.07.31: (v.1.1) - added shoshone/aztec/polynesia units into "start package"; - added worker into "start package".

Fixed some bugs in lua-script. If someone still need G&K version, you can use this (attachment in first post).
