Detailed Worlds 2.12

[Leyrann]

Hi,
Is anyone getting a regular crash (Friaxis Crash Report) sometime around turn 90 with a Detailed-Pangea map? I always used this mod and never had a problem. But for my last session I added some other mods and now I am trying to track down where a conflict may be?

It may be a conflict somewhere, as this mod hasn't had updates for the last two patches, and may therefore not be compatible.

Have you simply loaded your game and tried again, or did you start a new game and then got the crash again? In the first case it may be because of something happening in that particular game, in the second case you're probably best off disabling a bunch of mods and seeing if the problem still occurs, and just trying to find out which combination(s) cause the crash.

Most likely in the other mods you added, as you said yourself. I suggest you try a detailed Pangea map again and add the other mods one by one and reach turn 90.

I got it. I did a very careful search in the database.log...it seems it was caused by extra city states mod

 

[DanaLea]

you can still use the mod if you remove the changes to map creation and just keep the detailed mapscripts, I've attached a file with those changes already in place

Gekko, we need someone to take over this mod and make it work again... Interested??

Also, is Gekko's fix still working after the fall patch?

 

[[to_xp]Gekko]

try it out, it should still work but in case it doesn't I have no idea how to fix it since I'm still a couple patches behind

 

[Nokash]

If you are not getting any sea resources on the maps just copy ResourceGenerator.lua from C:\Games\Sid Meiers Civilization VI\Base\Assets\Maps\Utility to C:\Users\username\Documents\My Games\Sid Meier's Civilization VI\Mods\Detailed Worlds\Maps\Utility it worked for me still not getting any sea luxury resources though.

Edit:
Nevermind Gekko's fix works, still no sea luxuries though ;-;

I'm on a mac and don't have the fall patch so a "check and see" approach won't work for me. Hense, me asking the question.

 

[osopolare]

I'm really enjoying this mod but with the current patches it doesn't seem to place any sea resources at all. A bit of a bummer.

 

[asdazza]

EDIT: I thought there was something on the .lua files breaking the spawn of luxury resources, but they're actually ok after some exploration found whales and the shells.

[to_xp]Gekko version (without the default .lua's) still works with Fall 2017

Thanks for the info!

We need better maps for screenshots

These are as of version 1.02, even in the default maps you can see the climate modification with the desert placement and less obnoxious big jungle stripe at the equator.

The tiny maps above show the difference between detailed and standard maps using the same map seed (123456789).

This is the new Small Continents map.

Interesting Map Seeds

Awesome Maps Just one question...what happened to sea resources?? No Fish, no whales, no notta

Read the posts above your's...

 

[Leyrann]

The mod hasn't been updated for the last two patches, and in the summer patch (which is the first of those two) Firaxis changed the algorithm for sea resources. So, yeah...

If anyone wants to help me test this out, I'd be much appreciated. I'm (supposed to be) studying for a certification so my game time is severely limited for a few weeks. I incorporated the updated Lua functions into FeatureGeneraor.lua, MountainsCliffs.lua, and RiversLakes.lua so they would match the base game as well as fulfill what Seven05 set out to do. The other Lua utilities he had didn't seem to have much changed versus the base game so I left them alone (especially ones that dealt with ice). I also updated the DWContinents.lua because I was getting some errors when running it.

So what I need is basically someone to test these maps out and see if they are generating properly. Specifically the other maps since I've already confirmed Continents works without errors.

Things to keep an eye out for:
-Proper river generation
-Proper desert and jungle clumping
-SEA RESOURCES THIS IS BIG LOOK HERE SEA RESOURCES (Please check all the maps, even Continents, since I have not checked coasts in any of them)

Things I need if you have an error:
-Screenshots
-Log files (Database, Modding, and Lua)
-Patience

EDIT: I can confirm that Archipelago, Fractal and Continents are all working without issue and have plenty of sea resources. Haven't tested the others. Fractal could use some more mountains, might look into that when I have time.

 

[Piers Shepperson]

I made a Archipelago map using a giant map from Yet no another map generator YmANG. It was grefat apart from not having any sea resources anywhere.

I am taking a look at this now! So far I got a small archipelago map to successfully load (and spawn me into the game!). Was having trouble with this map script in particular before. Will update if I encounter any problems (like generating larger maps), but so far the map looks great and hasn't crashed at all. Haven't explored enough (turn 30) to see if other continents besides my starting one got any sea luxuries. Rivers and jungles/deserts are spawning beautifully so far.

EDIT: I can confirm that there are sea resources on other continents in an Archipelago map at least.

doesn't seem to be working with the R&F update. I keep getting redirected to the MM after starting a map. all other mods were off.

 

[madpluck]

Well the redirect thing is an annoying thing with the Mods.sqlite file. I keep having to delete it over and over. Now that I've fixed that problem though, none of the map scripts show up if I have Rise & Fall on. If I use the Vanilla scenario settings they load but not if I switch to Rise & Fall.

Very well possible, this mod hasn't been updated in a long time.

 

[BrokenSky]

Relating to maps not showing up with R&F enabled:
As far as I can tell, the problem seems to be that the game needs to be told that map scripts can be used with various scenarios. To fix this for this mod, the file MapScripts.xml (..\Mods\Detailed Worlds\Configuration\MapScripts.xml) needs to be updated.

Currently it has

    <Maps>
        <Row File="DWArchipelago.lua" Name="Archipelago - Detailed" Description="Detailed Worlds Archipelago" SortIndex="70"/>
        <Row File="DWContinents.lua" Name="Continents - Detailed" Description="Detailed Worlds Continents" SortIndex="71"/>
        <Row File="DWFractal.lua" Name="Fractal - Detailed" Description="Detailed Worlds Fractal" SortIndex="72"/>
        <Row File="DWPangaea.lua" Name="Pangaea - Detailed" Description="Detailed Worlds Pangaea" SortIndex="73"/>
        <Row File="DWSmallContinents.lua" Name="Small Continents - Detailed" Description="Detailed Worlds Small Continents" SortIndex="74"/>
    </Maps>

which needs to be changed, similarly to how the expansion changes the vanilla maps, to work with the new expansion by adding Domain="Maps:Expansion1Maps". The fixed version should look like this:

    <Maps>
        <Row Domain="Maps:Expansion1Maps" File="DWArchipelago.lua" Name="Archipelago - Detailed" Description="Detailed Worlds Archipelago" SortIndex="70"/>
        <Row Domain="Maps:Expansion1Maps" File="DWContinents.lua" Name="Continents - Detailed" Description="Detailed Worlds Continents" SortIndex="71"/>
        <Row Domain="Maps:Expansion1Maps" File="DWFractal.lua" Name="Fractal - Detailed" Description="Detailed Worlds Fractal" SortIndex="72"/>
        <Row Domain="Maps:Expansion1Maps" File="DWPangaea.lua" Name="Pangaea - Detailed" Description="Detailed Worlds Pangaea" SortIndex="73"/>
        <Row Domain="Maps:Expansion1Maps" File="DWSmallContinents.lua" Name="Small Continents - Detailed" Description="Detailed Worlds Small Continents" SortIndex="74"/>
    </Maps>

Making this change to the mod should allow you to select the maps on the main screen. From cursory tests they seem to work for me at least well enough to get to the bit where you have a generated map and your starting units.
