Blue Marble V3.0

[Brancaleone]

I dont play online, so the multiplayer bug dosent bother me. But i cant seem to install this mod for BTS! I have the steam version of BTS, since its installed in a different folder than the Civ IV game.. In the installer, it only gives me the option to look for Civilizaton4.exe, not Civ4BeyondSword.exe, so i cant seem to install it... Am i doing something wrong?

edit- I installed the bluemarble 3.00 for Civ IV, then moved the Art folder in the Custom Assets from "my docs/my games/civ 4/custom assets" to "my docs/my games/civ 4 BTS/custom assets". Kinda of worked, i think. Everything is pretty in the map now, but the interface/fonts/etc seems to be still the same (except for the sky background). Leaderheds didnt changed, for some reason, and my save game is not compatible anymore, it crashes the game.. ill have to start a new one i guess.

edit2 - nope it dosent work. I started a new game and it crashed. So i deleted the custom assets folder and now the game works.

Blue Marble works for regular scenarios and mods - except the author explicitly disables CustomAssets, as for example in BtS the WWII mod or Ryhe's mod do.

Is it possible to install Blue Marble for only single player games and leave BTS unaltered for multi-player games?

Yes, BtS patch v3.13 will fix the BtS bug where the game crashes because of CustomAssets in "MP" or "Lock Modified Assets" games. From BtS v3.13 changelist:

Fixed CustomAssets MP crash

Awesome! The only reason why I didn't d/l before was because of the multiplayer problem.

Ok when I loaded up again it fixed it but I still got screenshots if anyone wants to see.

This BTS version is just fantastic. I'm really loving the minor additions like small leader heads and backgrounds.

Thanks!

Civ4-BtS V3.02/V3.03 contains a bug and Multiplayer crashes on using alternative graphics.

Firaxis fixed this bug with BtS patch V3.13, so with this version Blue Marble can now be used for BtS-Multiplayer. Kudos to lead programmer Alex Mantzaris for his support.

So, blue marble works with 3.13??? Probably a noob question, but well!

 

[CivAgamemnon]

Yes, it does. With Single player and multiplayer as well.

 

[Arlborn]

Thanks for the answer!

 

[CivAgamemnon]

Thanks for the answer!

Anytime, Dude.

I'm running BTS 3.13 with EthnicArtStyles and Blue Marble 3.0 installed. I first noticed that the icon for Chariots was missing as indicated in the screenshot below. When I click it, Civ IV crashes and takes me back to the desktop. What could be the problem?

Okay, so I completely uninstalled Blue Marble and the problem persists. Sorry, folks. I guess the problem isn't Blue Marble.
