[keldath]

hi people,

im now working on a new mod,

and i need some help,

can anyone guide me to where i can find some instructions on adding and changing an era?

my trouble is with the citylsystem.xml and CIV4PlotLSystem.xml files....

thanks in advance.

I added an era to Rapture, and this is what I added anyway.

In the GameInfo folder there is 2 xml files. One is for the era. The other is to add more turns for the era.
CIV4EraInfos.xml
CIV4GameSpeedInfo.xml

Then you need techs for the era.
CIV4TechInfos.xml

If you want to go for an earlier era like I did.
You need to change the starting date in GlobalDefinesAlt.xml and change the starting techs for the civilizations in CIV4CivilizationInfos.xml.

I did not add the era screen yet. I do not know if that helps or not.
