Why won't this mod load?!

I have tried reinstalling it, but once again the Palace Garden Civilopedia icon is simply not there.

What am I doing wrong?

remember the bix file is called DYP with GFX, not just DYP.

 

[CivCube]

Does this apply to loading it as a scenario on PTW?

 

[Isak]

Yes - that's the only way you should play it. Never overwrite your default PTW files, if you have the expansion.

All you need to do is:

Make sure you get all the patches. To play 1.05x, you'll also need the patch called 'Full 1.04x' (approx. 28 mb) which contains all the graphics.

Install the DyP patches to the Civ3PTW\Scenarios folder (this should create a folder called 'DYP' and there should also already be a folder called 'Double Your Pleasure' which comes with the official patches)

Then, choose Load Scenarios, and like Yoda Power said, choose the file called 'Double Your Pleasure with GFX' - if you've picked the right one, the title bar, in the top-right corner of the Load Scenario dialogue should read 'Double Your Pleasure with GFX - v. 1.05x'

That should be it - if not, let me know and I'll try to figure out what's wrong

 

[CivCube]

Still doesn't work. It says that I'm missing an entry in the PediaIcons for the Palace Garden.

 

[NewDestroyer]

lol how can any skool work be done w/ such a great mod, doing homework is killer on the brain w/ such enlightment/fun.

@CivCube:

Ok, in that case I need to know
- which files (exact filenames of the ZIP's/Exe files) you downloaded and installed.
- if you have a folder in your Civ3PTW\Scenarios folder, called
DYP - not 'Double Your Pleasure', just D-Y-P (sorry, there's been some confusion about this previously )
- What version of PtW you are running.
- What the top-right title-bar in the Load Scenario dialogue says, when you select the Double Your Pleasure with GFX says when you select it (which version number is displayed there)

@NewDestroyer:

Yep, didn't you notice the mod's subtitle - "Cripple Your Social Life"

 

[CivCube]

Oky-doky then:

It says in the top right corner that it is version 1.05x. I am 1.21f for PTW and I do have a DyP folder.

As for the files that were installed, they were zips entitled "Full_DyP_PtW_1.04x" and "Update_DyP_PtW_1.04xTo105x".

 

[Isak]

If you right-click the DyP folder and choose properties on the menu, how large (in MB) does windows report the folder to be?

 

[CivCube]

The DyP folder size is 940 KB. However, the downloaded folder is 49 MB.

Should there be more stuff in the former?

 

[Caddy_NZ]

thx pdescobar

 

[Ville]

I have 1.04x and the folder is 49,7Mb so CivCube, you should download it again. (Or you have pressed just one file to unzip)

 

[Isak]

Yep, Ville is right - it sounds like only the 104xto105x patch got unzipped.

 

[CivCube]

Ahhhhh, yes. So it was.

It's working now. Thank you very much!
