I dont wanna nip pick or take apart from your work. It looks like you put alot of work in to this.

However with that said, on the civic tree if you were to research any of the 1st civics aside from code of laws you will lock the game.

You have to slot policies to end turn, Mysticism, Specialzation, Code of Honor all need 2 Mil and 2 Econ policies

thats not a nit pick at all, that's a huge issue! thank you and it just goes to show how difficult it is to anticipate exactly what you need to test for

I did the same thing when I first built the tree myself,
knowledge is half the battle

Installation instructions? Specifics as to what it changes?

Uhm this mod screwed my civ 6 it is now corrupted on the steam side now and i cant play anymore at all cuz it re-installs all messed up again. Do not download this mod pack period its risky it corrupted my game forever even on fresh system install i reformatted my whole hard drive and re-istalled windows still crashing after intro video

I've never heard of anything like that and can't account for it in any way. No similar problems have been reported from anyone else....and there's absolutely nothing that wouldn't get replaced by a reinstall. Its all just artdefs, icons, and XML.

What does "corrupted on the Steam side" even mean? Do you believe that my mod somehow accesses the Steam server and changes the files you download from it? Cause that's not possible.

Why did you reformat your hard drive and reinstall windows? Do you believe that my mod changed your core windows files? Cause that's also not possible, and sounds like something crazy my seventy year old mother would say about her computer.

I'm not often so dismissive, and generally start from an inclination to help. But you just showed up in a thread for a project I've spent mannnny hours working on and essentially accused of it witchcraft, of doing things it cannot possibly do. You didn't post error logs, you didn't try to debug, you didn't offer any specs about your computer setup. Nothing! But despite that you decided to make a PSA warning others away from my work without even attempting to communicate with me.

Which makes you an ******* IMO, and ends any possibility I might help you solve your computer problems. Have you tried setting your computer on fire, maybe that'll fix it.

There's a readme in the download. And for specifics, see the individual mods included in this modpack, each has its own page on NexusMods with more detailed information. It's a real hassle to keep multiple online pages up to date with fresh information when I'd prefer to spend my time actually modding, you know? So I apologize for lack of info here.

Ananes- can you mod some modern units?

fighter jets
f-16, f-18 super hornet, f35, f22, b2

modern naval units

modern tanks

navy seals?

much love

 

[anansethespider]

I have plans to do all of that and more Its just my OCD about these things that makes me start from the beginning and work my way forward. But yes, I promise, and soon.

I definitely understand not wanting to update multiple pages...but perhaps links from here to the relevant pages on Nexus Mods would make things a little easier for those who want to see the changes without downloading the mod first. Just a suggestion.

Fixed now im not sure what happened but it screwed with memory loading the game kept reading corrupted information had to restart computer everytime i figured it out another mod loading data into RAM its fixed now sorry!!

 

[anansethespider]

Great I'm glad it got resolved. If you have a moment later I'd appreciate if you could A) explain in more detail what caused it so I can help future people with the same problem and B) delete your earlier post so ppl don't get ascared.

Sounds really good, I already use Re-Districting, I might give this a try. Would the Strategos part interfere with MOAR Units?? Also would Nirvana play nicely with Historical Religions?? I currently have an issue with the choose religion button not working after activating the Great Prophet and I can't even access the religion/pantheon screen, obviously not caused by Re-Districting, but any idea what could cause that mate?? Thanks.

 

[anansethespider]

1A. Yes it will interfere with MOAR units, because the ArtDefs and Icons files are both new/different. This is not a necessary conflict - with a little bit of work they could get combined together into a single file - but it would take some basic coding work with an XML editor and copy/paste. You could do it if you tried.

1B. A purely subjective note, though Deliverator, the author of Moar Units, is an incredibly talented artist and programmer, his mod does not seem intended to add balanced units to the game so much as fun ones. He's got stuff like 45 strength horsemen with no upkeep for UUs that are really significantly more powerful than anything currently in the game. I don't believe his intention is designing a balanced multiplayer mod, and in that sense I wouldn't recommend combining the two.

2. I believe the Historical Religions is just a UI mod (though I haven't played with it), but I suspect they should work fine together.

3. What mods do you have active when your Choose Religion button isn't working, etc?

You have all those running at once? That's like the mod equivalent of the millenium falcon. Why anything works or doesn't work at that point is anyone's guess, haha

 

[KevSkegRed]

You should've seen my collection from Civ 5, over 100 and it worked

 

[anansethespider]

I recommend btw that you delete all individual mods associated with me and install instead the Modpack. That includes StonyMod which is already the blueprint for Nirvana, etc. Unfortunately, I've been having some trouble deleting from the interwebs some of the earlier versions of my work, which have obvious compatibility issues with my later work.

 

[KevSkegRed]

I've solved it. It was an error on my part, I'd forgotten to put the religion icon xml file in the game folder, as soon as I figured out it was Historical Religions I realised what I'd done. I had to verify the cache a few days ago and forgot to copy that file back in. Thanks for your help, I've been using your modpack and it's excellent work.
