CIV Gold!

1. the huszar cavalry for the magyars still appear as red blobs. what code do i change to fix this?

I think I know what's causing this, but let me check first and I'll get back to you.

2. i altered the spelling in scotland gameinfo, and now the bloody thing gives an xml error (i may have boobed using notepad). any quick way to fix it?

What is it, specifically, you want to change? Just the way 'Scotland' shows up in the civ list?
 
no. it was mis-spelt (scotish instead of scottish). the error i get is 'top level' and displays the first line of code (the one with utf-8). in game the result is xml text instead of scotland, scottish, etc.
 
Ugh. That one stcuk through, I guess. Okay, I think there might be a couple of typos and if the Hussar thing remains an issue, then we'll probably release a patch in the near future.

In the meantime, go into Scotland_CIV4GameText.xml and make this change:

<TEXT>
<Tag>TXT_KEY_CIV_SCOTLAND_ADJECTIVE</Tag>
<English>Scottish</English>
<French>
<Text>Scottish</Text>
<Gender>Male</Gender>
<Plural>1</Plural>

the huszar thing isn't a big deal (just weird seeing alien blobs kill my units!). i already did the change to the xml, that's what has caused the problem. it's as if the whole thing isn't recognised any more, so it skips it (i get a pop-up saying that). the properties say xml, IE loads it as xml, but the game thinks it is something else. i think i'll have to cut and paste to a proper xml friendly editor.

Here is the revised Scotland text file. Just delete the one you have and replace it with this one. Rename the file from *.txt to *.xml. I can't upload an XML file here so I had to change the extension.

Just wanted to pipe in and say that I"m playing a game as Romania (Cuza) and am thoroughly enjoying it, he's very powerful if done correctly, his UB replacing the Forge has been a huge boost to keep Jaoa and Shaka at bay

It's tons of fun to play random and get so many different civ options, it creates much more intrigue for me

The only downside I've really found is the colors of the names/colors of the borders never match... I'm pretty sure it did before but that doesn't really matter that much

In general though just added lots of fun to the game. Great job!

Good point, I am thinking of revising all the colors for the next version (although it won't be an easy task).

I believe there are 3 colours - primary, secondary and text. I'm guessing I may have been inconsistent between primary and text, although I thought I was.
 
As sad as it is to point out, for 4.0 you might want to remember to add the details and date for the death of Bhutto [the Pakistani civ leader]

Just a morbid thing to point out I guess, but, required :\
 
I have managed to combine this with the VD mod lol......wish I knew how to give some civs which already have flavor units made like Poland some but alas I don't. Oh well.

Great mod btw....

Thanks! I'm sure others will know how to combine them, but it's not something we can take on right now.

Are you folks still on target for a Feb. 1st release?

Fingers crossed. Maybe the Monday that follows (Feb 3) so we can use those two days on the weekend.
