Creating a new gamespeed?

[TheMadMonk]

Or even just editing the research times so they are longer. All I want is
Research times to be 3x Longer than Marathon
Building Times around 1.5 Normal Speed.
Recruit times at Normal Speed.

In CIV4GameSpeedInfo.xml, copy one of the speed entries (whichever one you want the total game length to be like) and rename the copy.

Adjust the various numbers according to your desires.

I tried to do that. I changed the research rate to 500. Is that a true number of does if have to be a preprogrammed number?
Btw It crashed so I deleted the file (I had an unaltered backup)

Does anyone know if this is possible to create a new game speed. It seems when you try to do it the game crashes.

Anyone know why this would be a problem?

You should also adjust CIV4CultureLevelInfo.xml since it has entries for each game speed. If you add a game speed, you probably have to add an entry to each CultureLevelInfo's SpeedThresholds section.

There may be other problems.

Yes, if the entry for months is not dividable by 12 or bigger than 12, the game will also crash.

thanks god-emperor.

I have successfully added a new game speed that works in single player. Now to test MP.

Is this only for creating a new speed or is it also applicable for modding one

I don't think you question makes any sense.

They are already all listed in the entried in CIV4CultureLevelInfo.xml. Why would you add a new one if you weren't adding a new one?
