CEC : Civilopedia Editor for CivIII

[Steph]

Crash confimed with my version and this civilopedia.txt
I'll try to see why.

ok, thanks

^This unit is sometimes created when a $LINK<Persian Immortal=#PRTO_Immortals> wins a battle.

This line is the culprit. The link should be PRTO_Immortals, without the #.
With a #, CEC interprets it as a new unit, called
"This unit is sometimes created when", and it screws the units entries list.

So replace
^This unit is sometimes created when a $LINK<Persian Immortal=#PRTO_Immortals> wins a battle.

by

^This unit is sometimes created when a $LINK<Persian Immortal=PRTO_Immortals> wins a battle.

and it will work

A little problem here... every time I press "generate", CEC crashes. Even when I haven't edited anything.

Using Windows XP Professional.

 

[Steph]

It's a known bug. However, the file is generated and saved properly, so I never bothered to correct it.

Okay I got the Editor.. I make a Thing for Marxism... but the thing is it doesnt show up when I test the thing... do I put in this?:
^#GOVT_MARXISM
^
^
^[description]
Do I do that on the thing? or something else?

 

[LMR]

Don't put the ^ in front of the #GOVT_MARXISM
so it should look like this:

#GOVT_MARXISM
^
^
^[Marxism] is the ideology of Karl Marx etc...

Other notes:
Putting words in square brackets ie. [ ], puts words in italics, and putting words in { } those brackets makes them bold

The editor includes tools to transform text to italic or bold, so you don't have to remember that.

why did you include the ESC-button exits program function...

your program is exactly what i needed, but because of that feature i just lost two and a half hours of civ-work because i just unintentionally hit that button ...

i know, i know, save, save, save, but there's no regular xp program that quits without "don't ya wanna save"-warning... aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrgggg (it's 06:14 in the morning here)

 

[jatibi]

please, delete that feature, and many many thanks for that program, i really like it more than the CMT.

Because I'm evil

Hey Steph,
This is fantastic. I just happened upon it yesterday.
Wish I'd been looking in the utilities sooner.
This would have really helped in making CAMELOT!

Every considered making a utility that would generate Pediaicon entries?

I'm no longer working for Civ3, but for SSS I've included an easy way to set pediaicons

Hey, do you know , that hting is great, but I wonder, how do I make Science Guy say ooh, the Pottery will make us be able to do that and that. you know, what he "thinks" about that tech? all I get is blank (whew! atleast I don't crash)

 

[Revan IV]

Downloaded the CEC editor. Opened the program, selected the civilopedia file, then selected units. All was fine up to this point, then I selected one of the units and immediately message poped up "CEC.exe has encountered a problem and program will close immediately.

Using XP pro

CEC version 1.2.2

 

[Steph]

I'm no longer supporting this tool, sorry.
I realized I'm working much faster with good olf wordpad.
