Saving trees? I bought 5 acres of scrubby bushland and encouraged tree growth. After 10 years it's now 'woodlands'. If, as a low wage earner, I can manage that, then most profitable business' can easily do far more. Surely they could invest in re-forestation etc., so that double the amount (or...

I tried those suggestions and they did not work. I decided to check which version of BTS I have installed and that was the problem. A few weeks ago I re-installed the game and forgot to patch it up to 319 so was using 313. Now after patching have tested those mods and the interface comes up as...

BTS 3.19 - Have been testing some mods and find that some start with the interface removed. Example, Pie's Ancient Europe IV. I was able to get interface back via Options>Graphics>Restore Defaults. But with 'Nations In War' mod that did not work. I notice there is the keyboard command of ALT+I...

'Realistic City Names'. That sounded interesting so I clicked the link and an alert popped up saying the protocol was wrong i.e., vhhtp. So deleted the 'v' and got to the page.

Nice pics. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks everyone. I had a look at the "See Through History" books. They sound excellent. I don't know if it's just a stage kids go through, but my son is into 'realism'. He prefers non-fiction books to fiction and he won't watch cartoons or animated movies. I find this a bit sad because there...

Thanks Afforess. I used a great search program called Agent Ransack & located all occurrences of said topic and changed them to 'Club'. I alsoo changed the Civpedia info; so now my 6 year old, who has a reading age of about 12 or more, can read about a 'club' instead and I don't have to explain...

Don't want to sound like a wowser but I have children under 7 playing & prefer not to have to answer question like 'what is a brothel?' So can someone tell me how I can remove it or change the name to club so all appearances of it in the game will refer to it as club.

Thanks for that information mamba.

Quote "I'd like to expand the number of turns, 100 more or something similar. How can I do that? " Have you found out how to do this yet? I'd like to try that with a few mods that seem to end just a little too soon.

I agree. I sometimes get sick of forever researching new stuff and I just want to play a simple specific era game limiting the weapons to that age. Maybe some clever modder will pick up on this idea and make it so.

3. Age of Empire is 'Real Time Strategy' while Civ 4 is 'Turn Based', so they are nothing alike. I enjoyed AOE 2 but not AOE 3 so much. As you know, Rome Total War is like two game styles in one. You have the overall strategy map part and the down close part where you can direct your...

I have 'The Complete Edition' and the Warlords build is 213, so is there any way I could get this to work?:confused:

Not sure if this is the right place to ask but here goes anyway. Why don't modders/scenarios makers etc., specify which version of the Civ 4 game their creation is for? I'm guessing most of the more recent mods etc., are for BTS with patch 3.19, but there is just so much content in the...

I've bought Civ 1,2,3,4 but sadly will not be buying Civ 5. The same happened with the Total War Series. I had looked forward to Empire: Total War but when they went with steam I decided not to waste my money. I have an unreliable internet connection and thus often have trouble staying connected...
