Enlightenment Era for Vox Populi (v 4)

[Infixo]

@RAuer2

When I download the Steam version I am getting a folder called "(8) VP-EE Compatibility (v 5)" rather than 5.1. Line 2 in the .modinfo file reads <Mod id="af398f38-90a0-45f0-9831-6c712c86061b" version="5">. Line 5, the teaser, also references 5.0.
Does Steam still have the 5.0 version, or could I be looking in the wrong place for a reference to 5.1?

Dang it! Seems that I've forgotten to change the teaser text.

Ok, you can check the correct version in VPEE_Buildings.sql. At the end of the file there should be a section called "Missing descriptions for Building Classes".

Anyway, the folder name is correct, same as .modinfo version="5". This is for Civ5 to distinguish between non-compatible versions. I use 4x and 5.x naming, so you can continue the game.

The VPEE_Buildings.sql file had the section for missing descriptions, so all is well. Thank you, and thank you for the work making this modmod.

WIll this be compatible with the 1-14 VP?

Technically yes.
There were some minor changes in units’ Strength, I must check if this affects VPEE.

Is combining this with enhanced naval warfare and ancient techs rebalanced mod going to cause imbalance or mod conflicts?

Works with ENW with no problems. ATR - I don’t know. If ATR operates within Ancient era only, then should be ok. If it creates an additional era like Pre-ancient - wont work for sure.

Great, is it possible you can put a screenshot in the first post of the entire tech tree with EE included? I want to look at the progression away from game.

There is a picture with tech tree that is affected. The rest of the tree is unchanged.

Yes, I realize that. I suppose it leads to my question, do you plan on implementing more to match the number of techs in the other eras? Or is it considered finalized in that part of development? I am OCD about numbers.

VPEE is tweaking original EE and RER mods. I am not adding anything new, rather removing because there are redundancies. And the Era itself was rather short in history, so having a bit less techs is actually good.

Has there been any thought concerning replacing the smithsonian with something else, since the institute is already the American UW?

Why wasn't this added to VP originally? Is it to cut down on the overall size of VP base mod? I see on github that for stability sake, the team is keeping to a limit of merges.

It is actually the other way around. VP uses original MOMA and changes it to Smithsonian. Only EE introduces the Smithsonian. In VPEE I revert MOMA back to its original name.

No idea, I am not the original author.
But some elements do overlap. E.g. Crystal palace, and 4 units that i had to disable in EE.

Because it is outside of the scope of VP and EE was created by a different modder. It is fine to keep it outside as a mod-mod with @Infixo kindly keeping it compatible with VP, no?

Playing with (8) VP-EE Compatibility (v 5.2) and Vox Populi (1-21): Built Torre Del Oro which should yield +1 Trade Route & free Drydock, but I got neither a free drydock nor an additional trade route after completing the building. My existing harbor, however, is free. But I'm unsure if that is a consequence of Torre De Oro or something else.

 

[Infixo]

@TadhgEomonn Torre has not changed for a long time. No problems here. I've double checked DB and its parameters are OK. Do you have any autosaves from before completing it?

@TadhgEomonn I asked rather to check if you can repeat it. I can see if your database is properly configured, i.e. I need cach debug database file.
