When I next play Civ IV, I really should get around to playing this. :)
 
Interesting modifications, I want to try your modmod.

Quick question though: is it compatible with rev.1050 ?
 
@Zeta Nexus : I'm planning to remove the link to "More dinosaurs" from the launcher, also because it points to the same thread as "More Music", but I would like to add the link to Chronicles. Is that ok for you?

More than okay :) Thank you!

Maybe I should create a new thread dedicated solely for More Music too so you could change that link too.
I'll do it later today.

I don't think it's really necessary. If we leave like this, people can still find More Dinosaurs if they like it, even if it's not mentioned in the launcher.

Oh, I meant to create a new and clean thread for MM only and Dinos need none. I will merge them into Chronicles as a separate module but in the same archive to make things easier.
 
There are two Chronicles Modules now in the AND Launcher, right?
And they can be both activated together, also right?

There should be only MegaCivPack, More Music, and Chronicles (pointing to this thread). I can't check now, I'll do it tonight.

Well, after I downloaded and installed Chronicles2 (for the first time ever) into the AND folder there are two options for Chronicles:
1. Chronicles: Wonder/full Cities, v1.0
2. Chronicles, v2.0
I just want to make sure that I can use them together.

I see, then it depends on Chronicles, we need to wait for ZN to check. I've checked the main mod and there's no double choice.

Yes, you can use either or both. In the second post (titled Content) you can read more about them.
 
reworked policies seem more logical, will miss proletarial, though. can i use the mod with rev 1054?
