Ah EB, good memories. You see I was a member of the team for about a year and a half, joining when RTW came out. I think I still have access to their private board on the org too. I didn't do much, a couple of skins, the strat map models and a bunch of text and spreadsheet editing. It's...

Touche. It's been made separate for ease of switching, testing, and modularity. It's also much easier to program (a list of booleans is easy to make, check, and faster too).

It's not in XML, because the game considers roads as different than improvements(farms and such). You can change it in a SDK with a little work. I don't think there is any way to do it in Python.

Not sure why that would be needed. If you wanted a leader to be doubly financial you could make a new trait SUPER_FINANCIAL that doubled all the bonuses.

mine doesn't either. Were you modding someone else's files?

I think you are confusing Civ4UnitClassInfos and Civ4UnitInfos. The lancer should not be in Civ4UnitClassInfos, only in Civ4UnitInfos. Lancer is a 'type' of horse_militia, not a class of units. Currently you have HORSE_MILITIA defaulting to UNIT_LANCER, which is not what you want. You want...

I've been trying to add a list of names for each civ to use as 'governor' or 'official' names for cities. So for I've added the XML code in CIV4CivilizationsSchema and CIV4CivilizationInfos, and now I've started adding it in CvInfos. I'm copying line for line the input used for importing...

The patch has made the wonder videos start and stop playing (audio too). It plays a couple seconds then stops, then waits for around 5 seconds then starts again. Sound is pretty random. The wonder movies played fine before the patch, although near the end of a game I did start hearing audio...

They also invented soap, chain mail, and their use of the large oval shield was copied by Romans and Greeks.

Scottish, Welsh, Irish and people from Brittany are Celtic and their language is descended from Celtic languages. English is not related to Celtic at all. When the Anglo-Saxons invaded Britain in the 6th century they slowly pushed out the Britons (Celts) to other places. The ones that...

No, the English are predominantly Anglo/Saxon/Norman with some Celtic in there (Britain hasn't been all Celtic since the 6th century) The language definetly isn't Celtic.

Torrent doesn't work for me, but the rapidshare download is at 80% anyway:) Edit: Spoke too soon. Rapidshare download failed right after I posted. Oh well, trying the civfanatic one next.

Ummm... not so much. Different religions are very different in beliefs. Just because political/social leaders have used all religions for personal/national gain doesn't mean the religions are the same. A good question would be whether religion starts political/social/cultural trends or...

That's kind of a false dichotomy there, 'religion' can't be seperated from people and people can't be seperated from whatever state they are a part of. But let's say they were different, and you wanted an example. How about the apostle Paul's fundraising for famine relief in Jerusalem in the...

Persians are in the Iranian people group, there are several others. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iranian_peoples Persians being the strongest, most influential nation out of the group, hence the civ.
