[Beyond the Sword] History In The Making

Idea for the Pyramids: make it add +X culture in every city and +X :) as long as your nation hasn't adopted Free Religion.

I Like your thinking, but don't really like that anymore than my idea, sorry.

Had a thought, maybe the generic temple, plus they start a Golden Age, and make them a bit more expensive. While a GA isn't ever to be scoffed at, it isn't that huge early on, nowhere near the effect of a Taj Mahal GA..thoughts?

I like your changes a lot. I especially agree totally with you on the archers. Do you mind posting the modified files for hands-on trial?

As requested...View attachment HISTORY IN THE MAKING.zip...I've included orig folders and subdirectories, to make things clearer if anyone else wants to try. Come to think of it, put into "custom assets", it should run as a sub mod of HiTM, but I haven't tried it that way.....just copied originals then tinkered with files in situ myself ;)

Thanks a lot. I will give it a trial.

Concerning installation in custom assets, files in a mod shadow those in custom assets so it shouldn't work. A module however does the opposite.

Hi Grave, love playing this mod, however i've come across an odd thing. I discovered/founded Zoroastrianism and was chugging along when i then discovered/founded Confucianism, having 2 religions doesn't normally bother me but this time it did, as Zoro was in all my cities i made this my religion of choice and then adopted Theocracy once i had access to it, imagine my surprise when Confucianism still continued to spread out in my own cities. I haven't tested this out on any other games yet as i want to continue the game i'm playing and it isn't a game breaker. Has anyone else noticed anything similar?

Actually, i founded confucianism while being Zoroastrianic (if thats a word) and running theocracy. I got the missionary, and spread it to Columbia, my second city. It seems that if you're running theocracy, you can still spread a religion if you founded it. Or it is some quirk of missionaries.
 
Hi, I'm new here.

As much as I'd love to play this mod, I can't. I boot up Civ 4 BTS normally, and load the mod, but when it gets to the "Init Engine" stage of loading, I get the error message "GFT error: Failed to initialize primary control theme." I can click "Ok" on it, but a few seconds after I do I get a CTD.

If anyone knows what this error is and how to resolve it, please let me know.
 
Archer Bombard.

Doesn't seem to matter how many archers I assemble. I haven't caused ANY damage to enemy units. I've played with DCM many times with other mods and not had this prob. (And yes I have turned it on in globaldefines alt). Have I missed something ?

Really professional mod though..... Thank you.
 
I'm having a problem with the game hanging between turns. Started around turn 714 or so (marathon speed). Essentially, once I end my turn, rather than wait for other civs, then get my build messages, etc. the graphics (tile/unit animations) slow down for a bit, then speed back up to normal speed. The game never advances to my turn, but I can access the advisor menus, I can change culture/science etc sliders, but can't access units nor city screens (save through the F1 advisor). Anyone ever encounter such a problem? I can reload a save from the turn before the problem and get a few turns earlier, but I'm having to save every turn and only get about 10 minutes in before I have to exit to desktop and restart Civ...

TIA for any help

Is BTS patched to 3.17 ?
Is BTS installed in the default location ?
Is HiM installed in the correct location ? i.e. BTS/mods
 
Hum. Well if you're really keen. The only other thing I can suggest is a re-install of BTS, patch and mod.
 
I'm getting 'video' crashes; some unpredictable, but also every time a leaderhead or movie starts up. I can carry on by reloading (pain), but - Is there a way to switch off wonder movies ? I can't recall. Can I aslo switch off leaderhead movies ?

EDIT: Getting rid of game background and playing alternate lines in Wonder Movies (globalaltdefines) fixed those problems
 
Very awesome mod (that ODYSSEY game speed is insane...) but I have hit an issue in the late game.

For some reason now whenever I build a new unit, when the game automatically places my view to that unit to give him his promotions and what after the turn ends and I can move again, my interface disappears. Everything, I can't even give the guy promotions =/

This issue only started after I filled up a PLANETARY map with a lot of civs and cities on it.

I don't think that will solve the issue, as I get the same exaxt error on my dad's computer. I think the correlation between the two is that their both crap computers. Both have minimum specs (my dad's can't even display the leaderheads!). Oh well :(

Dunno if its a similar problem, but maybe you could try what I did here to get the interface back http://forums.civfanatics.com/showpost.php?p=7414748&postcount=2415

Since replacing the changed files i have had a couple of great games, the changes are good
 
Hi
Same as for Civfusion, I'd love to try your mod, but filefront cannot be accessed from here (Japan). Is there a mirror somewhere ?
I found something in page 82, but it is for version 1.5 of the mod
