Dawn of Civilization - an RFC modmod by Leoreth

[Leoreth]

Well, if your going for a more historically inclined RFC game, as your tag specifies, then the fact that the Normans are not mentioned at all in this game is very surprising. Heck the English should spawn in 1066, and give way for some Norman/Viking invasions to take place, otherwise the spawns of France and England are very boring, and lack the real drama that took place during that time.

A couple of things:

1) For me historicity doesn't mean that I will throw obstacles into the players way and never has. Rouen would be exactly that.
2) English history doesn't start with William the Conqueror.
3) There are dozens of conflicts of similar scale to the Hundred Years War that are also not portrayed in RFC. The Hundred Years War wasn't even particularly important to the course of history: it's simply not relevant enough to be portrayed on the scale of RFC, nor is it feasible to do so.

So yes they should have been called the Holy Roman Empire, at the start of the game when they spawn they should be called the HRE, I don't see any reason for them not to do so.

Well, the HRE didn't even exist as a concept at the time of Germany's spawn so I see good reasons for it. Strangely enough, your standards for historical accuracy are pretty arbitrary sometimes.

It did flip the turn after, but with Trabazon as my capital, which wasn't very nice to see, overall I didn't care too much, but I don't understand why the Mongols weren't evicted, and Konya made my capital. (Frankly its a better city for a capital, as its also easier to defend).

Conquer Constantinople in your first turn and you won't have that problem.

Also I edited my last post with other suggestions.

I've seen them.

Personally I have never seen AI England collapse due to French culture, I doubt it is even possible..

If you play as France and go for UHV, it's pretty much inevitable.

You don't even need to flip London to collapse them (like flipping Amsterdam and Frankfurt). If London has, say, 40% French culture in it the Stability (and Unhappiness) penalty alone would collapse England.

Conversely, when playing as England I have never been able to collapse France culturally, since both the French AIs before Napoleon have very strong emphasis on Culture. And they both like using Culture Bombs against England (Cherbourg/Brest Bomb), Germany (Paris Bomb), or Spain (Marseilles/Bordeaux Bomb).

The Blue Marble link in the first post isn't working anymore, could someone re-upload it?

 

[Power_of_Beer]

The attachment at the bottom of the post still works.

 

[Leoreth]

The attachment still worked, I've updated the other link as well.

 

[Beornhard]

Oh, I hadn't noticed the attachment. Thanks.

I can't open .rar files, so I can't play this mod. Is it possible that a simple folder could be posted?

get 7zip (free and legal).

 

[Leoreth]

Folders can't be uploaded to most hosts (and would be a waste of space). There are lots of free programs to unpack RAR files, such as 7zip or WinRAR.

 

[DC123456789]

Never mind. Used WinRAR on my other computer (the free trial on the one I usually use ended).

 

[Alexius08]

WinRAR still works even long after it says that the trial is over.

@leoreth

I have controlled all plots in balkan,libya,egypt and levant.but finally failed it

 

[Leoreth]

It's up to Tunisia iirc, and tiles that border the sea diagonally count, too.

 

[soul-breathing]

Thank you!

I know I'm going to sound like a complete idiot, but how do you put in the patches? Is there anything you have to change, or do I just copy paste the new assets?

 

[Leoreth]

Yeah, simply unpack them into your Mods folder as you would with a proper mod, and then overwrite everything.

 

[Lokki242]

I figured it out on my own, but thanks for the help anyway. I don't trust myself with stuff like this for some reason.

Hi!

How does Reformation work right now? I downloaded the most recent version and didn't get Protestantism via Printing Press, but didn't see how I could research the Reformation tech.

 

[Fresol]

You need to have your state religion as Catholicism when you finish researching Printing Press to trigger the event.

Salam! In my computer, Civilopedia of this Mod seems missing something. Example: I open Buddhism, and the icon is printing press, and the description is "TXT_blablabla" or when opening a leader, the description is "TXT_KEY_blablabla".
