AAranda's modcomps for RoM 2.7

[AAranda]

Hi, just a quick question to your pirate civ. I really like them, but why give them like 4 attributes.. doesn´t that make them a bit unbalanced to the rest?

Even when i gave you my reasons to do that , i keep that on mind , because people using pirates don't need to give them a bad start position , as i do normally , wich need to be rebalanced
Because of that , in 2.71 pirates version , i have made 2 new leaders to split the "pirates traits", so Morgan is no longer so powerfull
If you want , you can download it and see if it fixes the spot you pointed ... the mod also includes several patriots units and unique buildings bonuses have been changed a bit

Hey Arranda, I'm a civ4fan from China,And I love your masterpiece so much that I'm playing all day long on your mod these days.

Here is my problem:I've downloaded your CompanyMod for ROM2.7,
But no matter how hard tried,I can stilly not download the ReligionsMod & BuildingsMod for ROM2.7 . Every . .. .. .. .ing time my connection breaks down when I click the Download button and I have to wait for a while when this CIVFANATICS.com can be logined again.

Why is this? It's the problem with Chinese net condition or the civfanatics' server is not so cool presently?
I'm dying for the religions and building patches......

Would you please mail these two mods to me ?? My mailaddress: meteora2009@163.com/centurieselite@yahoo.com.cn

No offense to anyone, i really like you'lls stuff your making, but all these modmod need to start having some credits of either where you got the stuff, or you know the author of the stuff you use.

I know whats its like, i used to forget to put them in also, and alot of people got teed off.

Not offended , you're right .
The problem is that i downloaded most of the stuff a year ago , adding news when them show up untill now ... I never thought of uploading what i've done , it came at first as a enterteinment just for myself and soon , without realize , i have 50/80 uploads using stuff from everyone
I really tried with 2.7 to follow the thread of what i'm using to give credits , but i found soon that it was taking too much time and making everything harder , so i give up
I know i'm using many things from you , from bakuel , civ gold , sentom ... but don't know what exactly .To be honest , at that point , i cannot even tell you what i have reskinned or done by myself
All i can do is say thanks to you and all the others and sorry i haven't keeped a thanks list from the beggining

I've just checked both files , and both are available from server and correctly downloaded , i've just did
Don't know why your connection breaks , but the files are too big to be keeped by civpage , so them are at mediafire and the civpage have to redirect you there
I'll try to send the files to yuor address , but i don't think it will work as we are talking about 100 mb

Sorry , but the file is too big to be send via email

BUILDINGS http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?zz0tiyjdznm
RELIGIONS http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?1jnh15hwnyn
Hope it helps ... please , make me know

Just a small piece of advice. Never post your email address in a public forum. There might be a email scanner passing by civ fanatics center, and you'll end up with an inbox full of spam

Well .... Thank you the same, I've tried, the same problem..
But It's fine.. may be it'll work several days after~~
Still,I have some ideas for you, for example maybe the Leaders' traits would not all be good ones... And wonders.. the new wonders are too powerful...

Thanks~ I can handle this~

 

[Murufengxi]

I've find out the reason..... www.mediafire.com is locking Chinese Users.... So your Mods which need not be directed to mediafire just work fine, grrr.... I will not give in ....^.^

 

[DRJ]

Perhaps it works by redirecting DNS?

Murufengxi, I really feel sorry about all you internet users around the world who get censored by the regimes. Even in germany they start know, although they say it's only porn sites - but once they started censoring, they probably won't stop again...

Hopefully you chinese guys can some day be educated by your own surfing - for example about the Tian'anmen massacre.

By the way, do you people in china even know what happened back in 1989?

 

[Murufengxi]

Check this out ~~~!!!!!!
All these problems are coursed by The Great Fire Wall of China
Chinese Goverment locked www.mediafire.com/www.getchu.com ....
This must be in the new visions of ROM as a world wonder..

The great fire wall
2000P
-50%culture of all cities +30%happy of all cities -10%science point of all cities
+100%enemy spy missions spend....

Well,Though my English is not pretty good, but I'm glad to communicate you guys here.
The turth is ,there does be a massacre in Tian'anmen square but 50%vedio you guys get is not true, the vedioes are from North Korea,and several other countries....

Personally,I don't like the goverment of China for many reasons, But you kown ,Chinese People are just like this: If we are not starving to death,then we survive just like this, and do nothing to change the condition. Because we know that
every "changing""revelution"costs blood.....

For so many years I think the fear of blood is the reason that we Chinese people blooded so much during the past several hunderd years.
So I cursed the Confusism as much as I respect it,it ruled our mind Thousand years...

I'm a man at a age of 22, I can not ensure you that everyone at my age here in China know what happened 1989 but over 75% of them do , we also kown a lot about other sins of the Chinese communists.
But not every sin can be punished in the history so long as ours....The massacre in Nanjing by the Japanese, the Invasion in 1900(Germany included)....

In my pointofview, every civilization has its own pain, what you've said is we China's
But it will not always be , I promise that in the name of my generation.

By the way , I've finished the download of the mods,~~~ Thank AAranda again and again and again

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!
I've just connect up right now and saw all the posts of your little epic download. Wow!!
I'm glad you finally made it , i wasn't able to send files bigger than 10 mb
About the wonders , them are not overpowered , is just that them are too many . But you musn't think about keeping all of them for you , AI is playing too and you wouldn't be able to build all
About your little historic/political issue , i'm completely agree with you : there's no country free of blood on it's hand , and non political system is good enough , not your's country comunist dictation , but not our capitalist democracy , holded by africans and asiatics cheap workers as Rome was holded by slaves
This world of ours has still many turns to be played before gets just acceptable

Great to hear there are lot of progressive people out there in china!

And even if there is a regime-mainstream-opinion and censorship all around, as we see programs like civ are promising educational instruments too,
at least it tries to (more or less)realisticly simulate society and its processes, as well as there is a active discussion about the tweaking of modifiers
- kind of a sociological discurse pattern.

No wonder civ can also be used in universities - actually it already is.

In this point of view your idea about the internet censoring "wonder" made my heart jump! Just what I had in my mind in the back of my head as well! Thx for the posted proposal

The great fire wall
2000P
-50%culture of all cities +30%happy of all cities -10%science point of all cities
+100%enemy spy missions spend....

I would tweak it a bit to:


The Great Chinese Fire Wall


Requires: The world project "Internet" must be finished by a civ.

Costs: 2000

-50% in all cities

+3 in all cities if civic bureaucracy

-10% in all cities

+25%

+50% enemy mission cost

-50% war wariness if civic bureaucracy/fascism etc.

+25% war wariness if civic is freedom of speech etc.

-3 relations hit with leaders who have chosen democracy/freedom of speech by the time of wonder completion



Hello AAranda, do you think this wonder could somehow be implemented in your next wonder pack version? I really would like to see it, especially as it would give some tactical depth to the internet age, by creating fractions between the civs due to their different civic preferences

Yes , it could be done . I always liked differents and crazy ideas , and that one is widely different
I like too much even the name "great chinese fire wall" , sounds quite good... but i dont want to offend anyone , so i'll wait for our chinese new poster to have the last word about the name

 

[strategyonly]

Not offended , you're right .
The problem is that i downloaded most of the stuff a year ago , adding news when them show up untill now ... I never thought of uploading what i've done , it came at first as a enterteinment just for myself and soon , without realize , i have 50/80 uploads using stuff from everyone
I really tried with 2.7 to follow the thread of what i'm using to give credits , but i found soon that it was taking too much time and making everything harder , so i give up
I know i'm using many things from you , from bakuel , civ gold , sentom ... but don't know what exactly .To be honest , at that point , i cannot even tell you what i have reskinned or done by myself
All i can do is say thanks to you and all the others and sorry i haven't keeped a thanks list from the beggining

Thats easy to remedy the problem, all you have to do is look at my credits (NWA) name as many as you can, then from this day out just remember to credit them as i do, WELL best as possible that is, LOL

@AAranda, I have a small speed up fix for the movie playing part of your mod but currently I am not using many mods nor playing games long enough to test it as I am building and testing a new python mod (zEnslavement enhancement, just need to add piracy now). Could you test it? It gives no python errors so I just need to know if it plays the movies correctly, ie Great and National Wonder movies and Holy Shrine movies. Thanks.
