Same here. Took one look at it, realised it was very much the sequel to the dismal Civ 5 and lost all interest. I'll stick with Civ IV and the brilliant work you guys do on it ;)

Cool, I'll go with that then. Thanks :)

Downloaded the newest version after I got the error but it has the same problem. Is the current SVN v37? I'll just synch that if it is.

Same story, sadly.

I've tried downloading from a couple of different mirrors but I'm getting the same problem - when extracting, a lot of files are apparently unable to be opened and the extraction fails. What am I doing wrong?

I haven't really touched this much in fair few months because real life (curse it!) has been intruding - my wife's pregnant with our 2nd child, I've been promoted at work, and we're remodelling the kitchen. All in all, free time is a luxury resource that I currently don't have access to xD...

If I go into WorldBuilder from another map or save then try to load my scenario, after the initial Civ and basic option choices it starts to load fine and gets as far as "Finishing Map" before just freezing. If I try to load it by starting a new scenario and then selecting mine (Prelude is the...

Some absolutely stonking ideas in this thread and I love the idea of expanding the Prehistoric era to include other species of ancient humans, especially as the game starts in 50,000 BCE, when there would have been 3-5 species around. Hat's off to you :goodjob: At work at the moment so not...

Trying to load a non-C2C map into the WorldBuilder results in a crash for me. Unless I'm doing something wrong?

1 reply for every 100 views, woo xD I'm fine with editing maps, civs, etc. through the World Editor, but I have no idea how to go about converting non-C2C maps to C2C's format :/

Long story short, I love making new scenarios for Civ IV, but there's just one draw-back - the entire technical side! I can do the research, the leaderhead/flag graphics, and work out exactly who's got what and where, but when it comes to editing the relevant files I get in a hopeless tangle...

Sweet Moses, I didn't even realise you could edit the scenario files with notepad! *Total modding newb* There's a parameter "Playable Civ"; set that to "1" and everything's gravy. Thanks for your help! :)

Been playing the Pre-Colombian Civs GEM for a while and it's got to the stage where I'm dominating too much (as the Zulus - lovely starting area!) and there's no challenge left. While pootling around with the World Editor to see if there was anything I could do to freshen the game up, I noticed...

Thank you again! :D

Ah! Fantastic, thank you. Don't suppose you'd be able to tell me the name and/or location of that file, would you? :) Ye-eah... but most of the "cities" in this scenario are set to the size of villages. Makes production seriously slow. While I appreciate that this might be deliberate, in...
