I downloaded it, but when I load the mod, it just has the music and title, and otherwise it's exactly the same as the title screen of the normal non-mod game; I can't get to the game. Yoshiegg told me to go into the private maps folder and click on the map labeled "RFCEurope", but when I did, it said "Mods/RFCEurope is an invalid mod directory, ignoring" and then launched Civ. Then, after launching Civ, it said "the worldbuilder file could not be read".

"Folder not found" means that you did not install the mod correctly.

What you need to do is extract the .zip file. In there you will find a folder RFCEurope. You need to move that folder inside PATH_TO_CIV4\Beyond the Sword\Mods so that you have

PATH_TO_CIV4\Beyond the Sword\Mods\RFCEurope\Private Maps\RFCEurope.WBSave

The PATH_TO_CIV4 is usually something like C:\Program Files\2K Games\Civilization 4

Well, I unzipped it, but I just extracted it to the one it chose for me. I didn't install Civilization in Program Files, and I don't see anything like what you described; mine goes like this:

Computer/OS (C: )/Games/Beyond the Sword/Mods/Rhye's and Fall of Civilization Europe/RFCEurope

Maybe that helps...

It should be:

Computer/OS (C: )/Games/Beyond the Sword/Mods/RFCEurope

And then right after that, you should see folders like Assets and Private Maps. Sometimes people get RFCEurope\RFCEurope folders which will not work.

Oh, sorry, I skipped one. It really goes:

Computer/OS (C: )/Games/Beyond the Sword/Mods/Rhye's and Fall of Civilization Europe/Private Maps/RFCEurope

Yeah, cause the last one isn't a folder, it's the worldbuilder save. My bad!

But at the beginning, I did have a double folder. I had put it into a new folder I made, then there was another folder (compressed) named RFC Europe, then there was another folder inside the compressed one called RFC Europe. But I fixed that; before I fixed it, when I loaded the mod, it was EXACTLY the same as the normal title screen, except with the option "Unload Mod" at the bottom of the menu. After I fixed it, I got the title screen labeled "Rhye's and Fall of Civilization: Europe", and I got the music, but everything is still the same; I can only access the normal maps.

Usually how I access mod maps is by loading them from the "Beyond the Sword Content" section. I think my problem is how to load the map, because I can't find it, and when I try to load it directly from the folder, I get a bunch of error messages.

The Mod should be installed in:

Computer/OS (C: )/Games/Beyond the Sword/Mods/RFCEurope

Anything else is incorrect.

Once you get the main screen, you should select "Play Scenario" and the select RFCEurope on the list of available scenarios.
