Would anyone have any interest in a mod of this incredible mod that essentially opens up all the AI only civilizations? I love this hard mod but didn't like the idea that you could only play a handlful of the cultures. I went back through and opened up all to play and then mussed around with...

Yes, mods can be used in multiplayer. I have run two and three player games with many mods. My favorite is a heavily edited version of Invictus Realism. A very tough and unforgiving mod that I play over the web using DirectIP with 1 friend. I have also played as a LAN at the house with three...

I can't seem to download. Keeps saying the file is missing on all mirrors?

please delete. I accidentally posted in the wrong forum.

Discovered that building the French Infanteria causes the game to crash. Switched it to another distinctive unit and the game is perfectly fine. Not sure what is wrong with the unit? Graphically I can add them into the game but building them instantly crashes.

I noticed that raging barbs on games starting after the Renaissance are horribly stunted. I think it is because they are not allowed to spawn in waves as in earlier ages. I tend to find they create cities and simply amass troops in them. Yet if you start a game in the earlier stages, the...

I don't believe it should take that long, of course I don't know your bandwidth. I think there is a problem.

I have been playing this mod for over a year and really enjoy it. It is both tactically and strategically challenging -- almost too much so. I often get so mad at the crazy rule set. It seems the barbarians are too weak played normally, but insane with Raging -- although I prefer the latter...

Such a great mod. After playing the game a few times, I decided to unleash all the possible civilizations both to the AI as well as players (we play multiplayer across a static IP). At first I thought many of the civilizations would be utterly horrible and worthless, but to my surprise they...

Hey everyone, I wanted to create a very simple animated video talking about modding. It isn't meant to be indepth, but hopefully will excite a few people to try this great hobby. you can watch the video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rKgo_5TiYM It isn't very long and it...

I have been tearing into XML for five years and still learn stuff every day. I have created a fair amount of mods as well, mostly standing on the backs of giants. I have only dabbled in modifying XML files but find that it grants me so much power in the game. To get at the art files you...

So I went through and enabled all the civilizations. A tremendous amount of work went into locking down the non-playable cultures. I had to play with settlers too, as well as some of the starting cultural buildings. I found that most were playable right from the start, with just a few...

Definitely do not platy on the Earth map. Great idea but horrible execution. I tried it on my relatively monstrous machine -- i7, 64-bit, 8 gigs of RAM, gig video card, and it was crawling on the 20th turn. Just use the RI world map generators. Much less headache. These guys have made an...

I have never seen this error while I played, but have you tried reducing the graphic settings n the options menu? I have a friend that plays on the minimal settings after he had problems with the game crashing.

So I have been playing a new game for the last week and I am having a devil of a time trying to find copper. Either the RI maps do not distribute copper enough or there is just too much dependency on the metal. I am also without iron, but do have horses and Prime Timber. Of course one...
