ADDON: Extra Civ pack for RoM 2.0

[vincentz]

And this is just excellent, excellent idea

Loading all 60 Civs is a huge bargain for most PCs, but I love the idea to add just couple of them

Hear hear.

No, all modular civilizations and leaders will have to be updated for v2.9 because civilization artstyles have changed so all custom civs would be missing city art and leaders need new inquisition memory infos. Updating all civs will take some time and I'll try to release them as single civ zips so that players can choose the civs they want to use - most likely I'll create a new thread for them as well.

Like this!!

Is it the ArtStyleType and UnitArtStyleType tags that need to be changed?

Is it the ArtStyleType and UnitArtStyleType tags that need to be changed?

Some schemas need updating too.. and UU units to match new RoM 2.9 settings. I've been incredible busy in real life (new work place, new collegues, dozens of new programs to memorize and working in another city takes more time than I anticipated).. if you ever want a job that brings new situations every day, try system admin's work

Anyway, I'll try to get those civs updated sooner or later (before summer at least, hopefully most in April) and there's room for few new civ requests that I could convert from Civ Gold.

Would not changing the schemas affect anything? On AND's beta I had some of the modular civs pop up and didn't notice any errors or art problems.

As for schemas, would simply finding the 2.9 schema files that each module uses and then pasting them into the appropriate place and re-naming the file to match the module work? E.g., taking the 2.9 CIV4ArtDefinesSchema.xml file, putting it into the Phoenicia main folder and re-naming the file to Phoenicia_CIV4ArtDefinesSchema.xml and using that?

(...and since I don't use Inquisitions, that won't be a problem.)

Yes, that's what needs to be done - at least GameInfoSchema and UnitSchema files were updated in v2.9. The new schemas add support for the new xml tags.

Did a quick look. Seems like only CIV4GameInfoSchema.xml, CIV4BuildingsSchema.xml, and CIV4UnitSchema.xml have recent changes so I'll apply those to the 11 civs I am currently using.

Mostly my fault, too...

 

[vincentz]

@ Afforess

What are the new tags?

@ Zappara

Congratulations with your new job

 

[Afforess]

Obligatory.

Vincentz,

I got RevDCM to add a PrereqBuildingClasses list in UnitInfos and a Sound tag for feature growth. Also, I added a bunch of python callbacks in the SDK, (turned off, they speed the game up). Oh, rewrote Inquisitions in the SDK, (That means Zappara has to update every leaderhead and add new Memory information for Inquisitions. ), and a few other miscellaneous AI things.

 

[javidbing]

can't wait to add all these civs onto my newly added RoM 2.9

 

[Desolator]

Hi zapp! I just want to bring your attention to the new Leaderhead Database thread:
http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=354960

(Almost?) All LH has a preview picture. A lot of leader has better/updated graphics. To name a few: Menelik II, Haile Sealassie, Mongkut, Ashurbanipal, Cetshwayo, Franco, Jayavarman, Richelieu, Piye, Salamashina, Kamehameha, Trung sisters, Vercingetorix and a lot more...

If you like them you could update your megacivpack (only the graphic files and the appropriate xxxx_CIV4ArtDefines_Leaderhead.xml files needs to be changed, but you know that of course).

Armenia, please

 

[TheeLord]

Any idea when the new civ pack will be available for 2.9 / 2.91??

 

[Tgo1130]

hope its goin well on this

 

[Dancing Hoskuld]

@TheeLord and Tgo1130,

Have you looked at the Clash of Civilisations mod in the mean time. I probably should not be pointing to it since I have never actually used it or this mod either since they over tax my system .

 

[Tgo1130]

Clash of Civilisations is not up at this time from what i can c

 

[exodustpa]

I love this mod, when will it be updated?

 

[Dancing Hoskuld]

Clash of Civilisations is the replacement for this mod in RoM 2.9
