Bug Reports and Technical Issues

Probably not, but the latest state works for me so it is not an issue with the mod either. Does this modmod run independently of DoC or does it overwrite it?

It is independent, and I also got the modmod using git pull. Have you seen this kind of error in my screenshot before?

 

[Leoreth]

Yes, it is a typical error when an XML file is not in the expected format. There is something wrong with your local file.

When trying to start game as Iran in 600AD scenario, autoplay ends early and I get You have been defeated message.

Trying to get my point across one last time regarding the Civilization Switch, this time with a two minutes long video analysis

If you have not started another game since then, there should be a file ending in "Initial" in your autosaves folder. Can you upload it?

 

[Just an idea]

Unfortunately it seems my game did not make initial autosaves when I attempted to start Iran game. Initial autosave in autosaves folder was from my previous Mayan game. It seems intial autosave happens on spawn turn and i got defeat message before that. I think that Aqua Appia becoming obsolete triggers error and for some reason that ends autoplay before i have any units.

 

[Leoreth]

That's also useful information, thanks!

I downloaded the zip version, and the exact same problem occurred. Did I get the link wrong?

GitHub - dguenms/Dawn-of-Civilization: The Dawn of Civilization mod for Civilization IV: Beyond the Sword, based on the popular Rhye's and Fall of Civilization mod.

[Leoreth]

No, that is the correct link.

 

[tangjinfeng]

Is it a problem with the mod name? I have already renamed the folder to RFC Dawn of Civilization, but it still shows No module named Dawn_of_Civilization. Where else do I need to change the name?

 

[Leoreth]

There must be more wrong with your setup. That is not the correct background image.

Can confirm the failing spawns and that it seems to be related to the Aqua Appia error message. I was investigating these errors already, but I can't think of a way that they could interfere with spawns. Will look more into it.

Man, I read your instructions, switch back to beta on steam, but it doesn't work, your action link is broken, is that so?

Now that it's solved, I may have failed to switch, so I found a non-steam version that works perfectly fine. Can you post another tutorial?

 

[Leoreth]

I'm unsure what you mean. You have a non-steam version of the game. So does it work now? What is the situation?

Temporary Work-Around for 600AD Scenario: Use WB to remove Aqua Appia from Rome. This seems to eliminate any of the nasty problems and doesn't impact gameplay signficantly.

 

[tangjinfeng]

I'm unsure what you mean. You have a non-steam version of the game. So does it work now? What is the situation?

I successfully ran this mod using the non-steam version. So what I mean is that the steam version cannot run. It may be that I failed to switch to the beta version. I want to see the tutorial you posted on the first page on how to switch to the beta version, but the link cannot be opened.

 

[Leoreth]

I see, good to know that you can play the mod at least. I didn't write that tutorial, so if the link is broken I don't know an alternative.
