Community Patch - How To Install

[Gazebo]

This may be a very silly question, but if I want to get the full experience of this mod, which of the mods do I actually turn on in the game? I see 1,2,3,4,and 6a, and am not sure which of these I should check off..

Also, I assume this is compatible with Info Addict/City Limits?

Thanks!

1 thru 6a (if using EUI), 1 thru 6b if not using EUI.

Not sure re: city limits.

I apologize if I've posted this wrongly, or missed the info in an earlier post. I have downloaded and executed the latest automatic installer for the CBP etc, but wish to play just the CP with the standard user interface, ie the simplest 'core' patch before moving to the full CBP. Where exactly do I find the two files you specify to delete? What folder? Thank you.

Eh? In the installer you can choose to just install the Core CP. It'll install that for you by itself. Don't just click through the options.

Not sure if I'm doing anything wrong, but I did the automatic installation but the mod won't work. I checked everything in the mods menu but resources don't appear and the names of resources/buildings in the tech tree have a format that goes like "assets_....". Am I missing something in the requirements? I have all leaders and both Gods and Kings and BNW.

Delete EUI from dlc folder for civ.

Where is this folder supposed to be?

Sounds like EUI didn't install properly. Please make sure your copy of Civilization is up to date and you are running it (legally) through steam. If these are correct, it should work for you.

Find your civ.exe and find the DLC folder in the root directory of your exe.

Use your civ shortcut to find it, or look where all your other steam games are located. I can't tell you exactly where files are on your computer. Unfortunately, using mods for a PC game requires some amount of computer savvy with regards to how file structures work.

Thanks for the help, I found the files and deleted them and It back to vanilla and works. I can now switch back and forth from playing this mod and vanilla.

Hey, quick question; approximately how much do turn times take with this mod, relative to unmodded BNW? I ask since my current PC is quite damn slow :/ So much that I prefer playing small maps to avoid the wait times.

I haven't noticed many performance issues, and I'm even quite surprised to note that the CP seems to run much faster than Artificial Unintelligence, despite seemingly doing more...

CP is actually faster than base BNW due to some major path finding and city optimizations. Caveat is that it uses more memory (still under memory cap though).

Alright. I'm trying it out then. Thanks!

I've found a bug where if an NPC is asking for one of my luxuries for example, usually I'm not satisfied with the amount of gold he wants to give so I often increase it and sometimes he will accept. But then when I look at how much gold I'm given from him, he's actually giving me the amount HE suggested, not the amount I wrote in.

Also, I don't know if this is a bug but worth mentioning, in the world congress if an npc has bribed me to vote on a suggestion he can vote it up and vote it down a the same time.

Found another bug where Syncretism in the Piety tree doesn't give the production or science from the buildings listed. And I know it's only from cities following your religion, but it still doesn't give the amount stated.

Did you check his GPT? At least in vanilla if the amount of gold he offered was all he had at the time and you attempted to raise it, the game would lower the amount itself and you'd get what he offered.

Yeah I know what you mean but it's not that. They'll accept a higher amount than the amount they set it at, and I'll still only get what they originally was going to give me.

If you still have your cursor in the GPT window, and then click accept, the UI doesn't always refresh down to the proper value. This is is a byproduct of the UI model, isn't actually a bug.

I see, thank you! Check the other bugs I posted in there as well. I'm currently only using your mods and Flagpromotions.

Not a bug - the AI can bribe to you to make you spend your votes (and vice-versa) but isn't necessarily committed to follow along.

Found another bug where Syncretism in the Piety tree doesn't give the production or science from the buildings listed. And I know it's only from cities following your religion, but it still doesn't give the amount stated.

Has to be the majority religion in all your cities, not just 'your' founded religion.

Hey guys, my display is really messed up after downloading the community balance patch. It seems I can't play the game unless I use the hotkeys and I'd really prefer not to use them. I tried clearing cache but it didn't fix the problem. For example there's no option to settle a city with a settler, or the option to move the settler on the left hand side. I'd really like to fix this problem, please help.

Please follow all install instructions and make sure EUI ended up in the proper place.
