AI doesn't raze cities. 2016-10-05

So here's a question:
Why are you all so hopped up about the AI not razing cities?
What's the big deal?

And if this skyer character aint around to post in his thread anymore, and if there is some sort of warning from the admins about zero crack tolerance, might we put two & two together?

It's annoying.

A) There is a link in this thread to a post by the ADMIN with a link to a no cd crack.

B)Skyer2 hasn't said 1 thing about no cd cracks. Everyone else did but he didn't
 
If Skyer's not around, it's nothing to do with the mods.

As for the AI not razing cities, it makes a big difference to many scenarios. Quite a lot of scenarios take place on maps where pretty much everything is already settled, and they only play properly if cities are always captured rather than razed. Think of the Napoleonic Wars conquest. A setting like that doesn't really work as well if you have to resettle all the time. And if you allow Settlers to be built to replace razed cities, then the AI just starts building them and sending them to inappropriate places instead of doing what you want it to be doing.
 
Plotinus is correct. Scenarios with pre-set cities are the main benefit for not allowing cities to be razed. when the razing option is eliminited from the equation it also eliminates the need to try to have "phony wonders" to stop razing. This allows the improvements to be used for other things.
 
This works with Civ3 Conquests with no problems at all!

I must say that this is AWESOME! Lots of scenario players like me hated the fact that the AI constantly razed cities, and this fixes it.

Thanks a lot for your work!
How did you get it to work for conquests no one else has it only works if you have the no cd version.?doesnt work with civ 3 complete and its the same as conquests.
 
So skyler is a web pirate who tried to steal are hard earned money and potentially ruin are lives by tarnishing are credit we need for business.

Good job exposing this criminal man (unless your are wrong or he never had intent, still this is great tarnish to his trust)

Do not download.

I would like verification from someone else before I believe this. I scanned it with both avast and Norton. Both have come up clean.
 
It would seem bizarre that he would create something so useful, and at the same time implant something so nefarious at the same time.

Then again, if you wanted people to use it, I guess you would have to make it very useful.

On a different note, I really would love to know how he created this without access to the source code. To reverse engineer the code is virtually impossible.

I have looked at the binary through a hex editor, and it is essentially gibberish.
He would have do disassemble the binary, then delink it, then decompile it to access the source code, and even then it would be incredibly difficult to sort through that.
The source code would no longer have the original nice logical variable names that the human coder would have provided, but variable names like A, B, C, AA, .

For what it is worth, I googled Generic5.duh. It came back with two hits, one of which seems to be a site that shows how to get rid of the trojan horse.

Put the two lines together when you do your search.
 
No you cannot edit every unit not to raze a captured city. You can edit them so they are unable to pillage improvements.

Hi.
AVG recently started complaining about a file that supposedly was
infected with "Trojan horse Generic5.GUH". I fear I have already run
the executable on a Vista Premium laptop and XP pro (SP2) pc before
AVG was able to detect it.
Does anyone know of any detailed online info about this security
threat and maybe specific instructions how to remove it?

Thx in advance & kind regards, Niek

response to above
The fact that some of the more reputable products did not alert would
suggest it may be a false positive, very typical of AVG.
 
Hey, Balthasar, what anti virus software are you running? :)

EDIT: Could it also be that the Trojan came from somewhere else and copied itself onto that file?
