changing game length / ending era

[BuddhaBubba]

How could I make a Mod where I simply want to make the game end at the end of the rennaisance era... (i know you can make it so you start in a different era but how can you make it so you end in an era)
One other question: Once I change the ending era to Rennaisance, could I just increase the number of turns for the game by setting it on Epic level?

thanks!

One way to do this would be to trim all the techs you don't want out of the tech tree (or isolate them ... make them depend on an unresearchable technology, that may be faster/easier). (Civ4TechInfos.xml)

You can adjust the number of turns and years per turn in the xml as well. (Civ4GameSpeedInfo.xml)

I suppose bDisable tag in Civ4TechInfos.xml is useful for switching off unnecessary techs.
