I thought I read that Civ 5 had native support for Civ 4 maps and mods, but I can't figure out how to install the mod or get it to work in Civ 5? Any tips would be appreciated.

I know that the Forbidden Palace doesn't have exactly the same effects as the palace -- e.g. it doesn't give +8 commerce per turn. However, I am wondering if it provides the exact same level of maintenance reduction as the normal palace? If so, that would mean that the old "build the...

Ok, my bad, I thought I had eliminated everything else and the router was the only possible thing blocking traffic, but it was ZoneAlarm firewall. I forgot that I had been playing around with 2 different routers with different DHCP address ranges, and I didn't have the 2 computers properly...

I see 13 ports that need to be open. So, if I want to play a LAN game on 2 clients using a router instead of a switch (civ does NOT seem to like playing on a switch only), does this basically mean I need a router than can accept 26 unique port forwarding rules? Or else just open giant chunks of...

I'm setting up a LAN game using the CarterEarth map... however I can't figure out how to get team play enabled. It seems as though the mod might be specifically set to disallow team play.. but then again maybe not. The .ini file for the mod contains the following line: ; No team play...

I saw this posted somewhere but can no longer find the explanation of syntax/where it goes in the file/etc. Any tip on how to specify a mod to load in the INI file, greatly appreciated. Also on a related note if there is an FAQ on editing your ini file, please post it. Searches of this...

Hmm, thanks, I'm a little confused though. My understanding was that on the higher difficulty levels (Monarch and above), the AI civs would start out with extra units. Will that not be the case here? So I will get production penalties for choosing Monarch but the AI civs will not get any...

Hello, I am setting up to play the Incas in the fantastic CarterEarth mod, but I have a bit of a newb question. I notice that each of the AI civs has its own difficulty setting. What is the significance of this? If I set my own difficulty setting to Monarch but all the AI civs are locked at...

Lol, yeah, but you know, that's chetzing! :)

Thank you both very much! Now I can return to my regularly scheduled losing at Civ :D

Pardon me, but it's been a very long time since I played Civ, and so I am having trouble remembering exactly how the home tile of a city is treated. 1) Does it always have the same food/production/commerce value regardless of what's on it, or does it experience bonuses from resources and tile...

If you use the Taj Mahal to start a golden age, does it increment the cost factor for the next GA? E.g., if I use the Taj Mahal to start my first golden age, but want to use Great People to start my second, will the second golden age cost 2 great people (the normal cost for the first golden...
