Caveman 2 Cosmos

[ls612]

I don't even have a copy of Civ5, so I am staying with Civ4 and C2C. I hope that answers your question.

This. I would only consider moving to CiV if three things happened.

1. We implement completely Multiple Maps/Galactic Era, Nomad Camps/Prehistoric Era Overhaul, Progenitor Civs, and Dynamic Traits.

2. We get C2C to the point where there are no fixable CTDs/bugs left. (this one could take a while)

3. I get a new rig and buy CiV (this one's important)

Personally I'd move if they made the DLL source available and there was a quorum preopared to make the move. The benefist of a 64-bit, multi-threaded platform are not to be under-estimated.

Dang it. Read through the whole thread. Just reinstalled CIV4 and downloading the mod now. Bye bye weekend.

Looks like people are even wanting to play C2C even if they don't have Civ4 still installed.

Holy crap! I have spent 3 hours in this forum reading, and the amount of information is truely dizzying! I am just a plain old end-user who has no technical modding skills. (I had to look up the tech definition of torrent and still don't fully understand it) I have played C4 for years but never used any mods. I have been playing Civ5 lately- and it's cool, but I find myself thirsting for deeper fare. I am very excited about this mod but am clueless as to how to obtain and use it. It almost seems too complicated. Can anyone offer any remediation?

Thanks
Chev

Last release as far as I know, Caveman2Cosmos v22.1, the link above is a site in which you can download it from. It is an ~.95 GB file, so depending on your internet you are going to downloading for the long haul.

The SVN is a whole different beast, and the milage may vary, but I recommend just following along with the release versions.

If you have any more questions, just ask, someone will answer it. (Sooner or later. )

 

[chevmech]

Thank you very much for the info, Acularius! Is the link you provided the only way? It is forcing me to load garbage apps and useless toolbars which I HATE. If it is the only option, I will consider it - I am very impressed with what this mod has to offer. You fellas who are behind the wheel seem to have one hell of a knack for this kind of stuff. Ever think about teaming up and providing your skills (and a dedicated host) as a service? I would gladly pay for polished, continuing, hassle-free content for my favorite game of all time! Maybe there are legal ramifications?

Hmmm....SVN.....Googling...........?

I have to wonder if you clicked on the right download. There are no random pieces of software involved, just a 7-zip archive.

There are ads on the page that have "free download" buttons and such. Do not click them.
Click one of the "download from public server X" links (not a button, just a regular link). That pops up another window with a countdown until the download (if the countdown does not automatically update after a minute, reload the page and keep doing so every minute until you get to the actual download). Ignore all the ads in the new window too. Eventually it will show a "Download Now!" link (again: not a button, just a link) to click to get a 7-zip archive that holds the mod, and nothing but the mod (well, probably some extraneous junk that is not actually used but there's so much stuff that keeping everything organized is problematic - but no toolbar or other random programs).

 

[chevmech]

Much obliged, GE! You are right. There are huge green buttons that call "download now" - tricksters! The file is only a gig it shouldn't take too long. I can't wait to get my hands on this content. Totally awesome! Thanks again! I can't wait to see what you wizards can do with Civ 5! That one could use some fleshing out!

We will never make it to Civ 5, no dll permission granted from Firaxis Besides "our" C2C modders, IMO are way better than the Firaxis so called "professional's" that make Civ 5.

 

[chevmech]

Thanks for the help all! Firaxis should team guys like you- this mod is FANTASTIC! The direction you took this is how 5 SHOULD have been done! Looks like my copy of 5 is going to be collecting dust! A million thanks to your crew! SPOT on sh** fellas! Cheers! =D

I have CiV, I don't play it all too much. Feels empty.
The 'DLC' hasn't convinced me to further support it either.

 

[Sgtslick]

maybe when expansion + DLL there will be some gameplay with depth in civ5.

 

[Baskedyt]

I just wanted to share this screen shot, with y'all.
It made me go

Spoiler :

(FYI I'm playing v.21 - not SVN)

Blasphemy i say.

 

[ls612]

The expansion probably won't help all that much, but if they release the DLL for people like Afforess and Koshling to edit, the sky's the limit.

Afforess, is he even around anymore, haven't heard from him in 2 months??

I've read recent posts of his in the CiV area, have no idea what he is actually doing.

 

[Hydromancerx]

I thought he went off to Minecraft modding.

 

[JosEPh_II]

Afforess, is he even around anymore, haven't heard from him in 2 months??

He's finishing up the semester and "may" work on AND some after finals. I think he realized that using the C2C changes to the "base" of AND involved more work than he intended to put into it.

Go to his account page and EM him from there. He generally responds in a day or 2.
