New version, as it's been a while since the last one. Also, I figured out how to create the auto-installer, so no more patchwork patches from me! Changelog, in no particular order: General - Text fixes - Major code cleanup for acquireCity(), Venice/Austria code, other functions - Added...

Here's the revised peace logic for the upcoming version 1.1, in great detail. Feel free to suggest how this could be improved. Wrote this up somewhat hastily so feel free to ask if anything seems unclear. [PART 1: INITIAL CHECKS] 1. Peace Blocked - If game options "Permanent War" or...

Hello everyone! I am back after a long hiatus from civ after getting busy with my new job, but decided to pick back up just in time to see a new version of VP dropped! Big fan so far btw, but anyway it wasn't long before I decided to revisit my old project from like a year ago, but with this...

I'm feeling dissatisfied with the current mechanic (masters cannot capitulate) so I'd like to get community thoughts on how else we could handle this. Note: This is for situations when a master suffers crippling defeat in war and would ordinarily capitulate, not minor concessions. I've come up...

Hey all! New version inbound! This one is quite stable, enough so that I'm officially labeling it 1.0. We're doing a soft-reboot on the versioning system, so out with the old date-numeric model, and in with a traditional versioning system. This is also the first version in awhile that will be...

Hello everyone! I'm still Recursive, your favorite family-friendly endless loop CTD incarnate! As most of you know, I've been improving the diplomacy AI for a long time now. I've created a comprehensive guide for every Opinion modifier in the game, which I have posted in the second post of this...

Hey guys! Long time VP player here. I can't find a compiled changelog of all versions of VP, so I'm hoping someone can help me out. Does anyone know which version of VP is best for snowballing potential? Denmark's insanely broken pillaging yields for culture and gold in every city, China's...

Due to Gazebo's absence, I've decided to create a new patch. Not a lot of changes in this one, mostly bugfixes and some new modder tools. EDIT: The Freedom rework changes are all included in this patch. The changelog below has been updated to reflect this. EDIT 2: The changes from Hotfixes 1 -...

Hello everyone, As you know, in the current City-State diplomacy system, it is possible to declare war on a City-State and impose peace in the same turn (the City-State has no say in the matter). This has created a lot of exploits where players can declare war, kill specific units, and then...

Hi, Apologies if this is a dumb question/wrong place to post. I recently discovered vox Populi and have been having a lot of fun with it on a giant TSL Europe map--but I find that the map feels a bit sparse with the 22 civ limit. I found other dll mods that increase the civ max to 43, but...

Hello everyone, With the soon to be released tweaks for Pledges to Protect by @Recursive, which will make CState gameplay a bit more interesting since it will make some PtP accessible for players, I decided to talk about one idea I had in mind for quite a while, which is a rework of the trait /...

Hello everyone, After some discussions about unique improvements with @Milae, the idea of allowing every unique improvement to be constructed on resource tiles (with only some improving them) was raised. Since it is an interest subject to debate about, I decided to create a thread on the...

Hey all, New version inbound. Apologies for the delay, I've switched to a new, shinier PC and the typical teething issues of setup slowed me down. AI/Bugfixes/Optimizations Ian9 complete refactor of memory methods integrated Faster loading/saving, more reliable and consistent...

So it was recently reported that when a coop war promise is made between an AI and a human, if the AI declares war early, the human is dragged in. This is intended. (I'm attempting to resolve the issue with the AI often declaring war early.) But the bug is that apparently when the human...

There's a bunch of leftover code/memory in the DLL relating to achievements and Steam stats. Achievements don't work in modded games, but when VP is used as a modpack, it's possible for it to continue to unlock achievements and increment Steam stats. Is there anyone out there who wants this...
