Additional Civilizations (by DJSHenninger)

[DonStamos]

Hm. I'd put one in:

"Our people are now visiting your castles and hunting your vampires..."

But I'd have to replace the vampires part, lol.

I'm done with adding support for Ethnic Units, YnAEMP, Civ IV leader traits and Unique cult influence except Wallachia.

Should I wait for you for Map Labels, Piety & Prestige and Cultural Diversity or should I attempt them myself? I don't want to do anything that you already did; I'm not exactly enjoying adding support

I'll update all the mods once I got the support for the remaining mods

 

[DonStamos]

You can go ahead and add those last couple if you want, I'll still be a little bit with coding E&D for Wallachia. I posted code for one of the decisions (the Emissaries one) that I was having a lot of trouble with. Once the Events are done, then I'll be doing the Decisions and that's the last part I'll have to do.

By the way, since you'll have updated most of the other Civs, do you just want me to send you the folders for the E&D support for the ones other than Wallachia, so you can add them in yourself and they don't have to be uploaded a bunch of times? I have a Dropbox, so it won't be an issue

Sure, I'll do the others as well, then you can focus on the E&D support xD

I'm not sure what you mean, but sure? You can just give me the code and I'll add it to the mod and update the mod. Since E&D takes long, I'll update all my mods once I got the support for the remaining mods except E&D and then update E&D separately.

Well, considering you had to find traits for leaders and locate civs, its only natural for you not enjoy...
Can you please update Bohemia, The Kazakhs and Tomislav first?
Events for Tomislav I of Croatia

Spoiler :

The Serbian Escape
The Barabarian ???(civ) forced the royalty of ????(city state) to escape. They want to hide in our territory. What shall we tell them?
send them away. We had enough wars for now.(lose 30 influence with ????, 25% that ??? Offers you friendship)
ask them what they have to offer us in return.(50% chance you lose 30 influence, 50% chance you lose 15 influence and receive 75 gold)
let them in. We shall protect them. gain 30 influence with ????, 33% chance that ??? Declares war on you and you receive one military unit)
A king.
A new document issued by the pope describes you as a king.
from now on, I am the king of Croatia!(golden age starts for 6 turns, we love the king day in the entire empire for 3 turns.

@ Donstamos: i can make your ideas more "codable", maybe.

 

[DJSHenninger]

All Direct Downloads have been updated and now include support for:
- YnAEMP
- Ethnic Units
- Civ IV Leader Traits
- Unique Cultural Influence
- Map Labels
- Piety and Prestige
- Additionally, Cultural Diversity contains internal support for my mods

Now, I'll try to update the steam workshop asap, but it takes a long time..

 

[Danmacsch]

Great news!

 

[Hoop Thrower]

Now that was fast...

 

[Natan35]

OMGzorus news!
lol:)
How's the E&D Support is going? Tell me if you need more ideas...

 

[DonStamos]

I'm trying to get Wallachia's decisions to show up in-game. That has to happen before I can figure out if I did something else wrong. I'm giving my brain a bit of a rest from staring at code for two days, lol, then I'll comb through it and fix what I presume to be parenthesis issues and try again.

If I can't get Wallachia's to show, there's no way I'll be able to do so with any others.

*edit*

I just tried to give it a go again, and still won't even show up in game. Still telling me unexpected value near ")" on the Decisions file, after I combed through it again and made sure all my brackets and parenthesis closed. Also telling me one of the events is a nil value, so I'm presuming it's not loading that file either.

I dunno if this is actually gonna happen. I can't imagine doing this again and again (this 3-day code-combing process) for all the civs, and that's on the extremely long shot I can even get Wallachia's to show up.

If this is something specific, i can find a new idea.
(BTW, does that mean the events are already done?)

 

[DonStamos]

I have them coded*, yes. But I can't get them to show up in game so I can test them and make sure I coded them correctly, hence the asterisk. Though, to be fair, the fact that I can't get them to show up means they're not coded properly as-is.

I "finished" them early yesterday. I've since been trying to work out kinks that are keeping them from showing up. I've combed through them several times today alone, to make sure I had the functions closed, the right number of parenthesis, etc., but I'm still getting errors on both the decisions and events lua files. The decisions has an "unexpected symbol" I can't for the life of me find, and it's telling me one of the events in the events file (unsurprisingly, the first one) is a "nil value," and I can't figure out why. I'm betting if I do manage to figure that out, I'll have some trouble with the other two.

I'm hung up on Wallachia's because they're essentially the test of whether or not I can do this. If I can't get these decisions to show up, that doesn't bode well for an attempt for another civ.

Since I love E&D, I've been taking breaks so I don't develop a hatred for coding lua out of this. I really do want to put in support if I can. So it's not any of your ideas, it's my seeming inability to code lua. JFD, whom I've reverse-engineered quite a bit of code from, and Sukritact have been immense helps, and I'm extremely grateful for that. At the moment, it's just very, very likely I'm not even going to be a fraction as good as those guys

 

[Danmacsch]

I can take a look at the code for you if you like. I've recently managed to get Decisions and Events to work correctly for my Corsica civ.
Can't promise anything, but maybe I can be of some help.

 

[DonStamos]

I would greatly appreciate that. If I can figure out what I'm doing wrong, I can avoid doing it wrong in the future. That's what's so frustrating, lol.

[DJSHenninger]

Thanks again all, but don't overdo it In the meantime, I intend to revise a lot of my civs, mainly the traits and try to update those civs in the workshop in little need of revision.

How... how can you possibly revise all (or more then two thirds) of your civs? There are so many of them...
eek:)

Sorry, I haven't gotten around to look at the code yet with Christmas and all.
I will this afternoon (unless you've gotten it to work yourself).

 

[DonStamos]

I haven't touched Wallachia's since I posted those, so no worries.

I did, however, code up Tito's. I figured starting fresh might help. I got both of his decisions to show up in-game (that alone made my night), and I'm working on ironing out some issues with the events file so I can verify it loads. I haven't actually tested the decisions yet, but I'm fairly certain they should work as advertised; the coding was fairly straightforward. I figure the events (since they use a random city and a random Civ script respectively), will give me more trouble.

I'm hoping I can get Tito's stuff ready to go sometime today as a late, small Christmas gift. I was gonna try to keep them secret, but there's an error I absolutely needed to post about to get JFD's help on.

Given what I've learned working on Tito, I might need to start again from scratch on Wallachia to ensure I get the coding absolutely right.

Romania "revised":

Romania - Michael the Brave

BNW: Download / Subscribe

Spoiler :

Emphasized on: Warfare | Culture

UA: The Eagle, Aurochs and Seven Hills - Gain a Golden Age Boost upon capturing a City and also a Happiness Boost if the City is a Capital or City State. Golden Ages generate 20% more Culture.

UB: Maramures Wooden Church. Replaces the Temple. Extra effect(s):
> +1 Culture from worked bonus resources
> Higher production costs

UU: Dorobant. Replaces the Great War Infantry. Extra effect(s):
> Can only be purchased with a relatively low amount of Gold
> No maintenance cost
> Becomes obsolete at Mobile Tactics
> -25% Defense

Notes:
- Golden Age Boost: 25% of amount needed to get a Golden Age
- Happiness Boost: 50% of Population size (I believe after killing citizens)

Credits:
The Dorobant uses Bernie14's Austrian Great War Infantry unit skin, from "Great war Infantry pak2"!

- New Trait
- New UB icon
- Added personal tags to distinguish from other Romania civs
- UB: higher maintenance cost removed, higher prod costs (+25%) added

I'd appreciate some balance feedback.

 

[Natan35]

I love UAs with a lot of icons. I love this one!
What does it support?
