Europe Map (84 x 52 - standard)

Great map, ive been enjoying it thanks

Played the map over the weekend as England. I liked the fact that the British Isles lacked some resources. France seems to be missing some variety of terrain.

All in all a good map and fun to play.

Playing this map right now - great work! (I modified it slightly, by adding Arabs in Africa, Mongols in Crimea and a bunch of bar cities in historical locations of "minor civ" big cities, such as Amsterdam, Dublin and Venice).

Is the epic game time bug fixed in the last version of this map? This is one of my favorite maps to play but its very annoying to end the game so early, hate the victory text that does not remove from the screen...

Just open the map file with the wordpad editor and delete the lines that refer to the number of turns and game speed (they are near the beginning of the file).

This is one of the first great maps for civ4 and the one that I still play! Its mad fun to for its speed and together with mod like sevos 2.3 it’s really great.

But its sad that Arne apparently doesn’t do more work on civ4 modding? What happend to you Arne?

 

[DearneMan]

Great map, Arne. I give it a try.

Great map, Arne. I give it a try.

this is a very very old map, glad I dumped it up in the forums so more players can play this great map.

I remember Arne to be a very competent modder in civ3 (or waas is civ2, the times seems to fly away)

Oh, I'm very sorry. I was offline for about a month. That's why I didn't answer.

Thank you for the compliments; well, actually I'm working again on a ambitious project with a very small team of german modders. We are trying to transfer my old Civ3-SPQR-mod into a mod for Civ4, but the relase date is still far away.

Glad you like this map, some big mods here and in our german forum are based on it, for example the European Empires Mod. Feel free to try it out, if you didn't for now.

 

[Drogear]

Nice to see your back.

Yes EEP is a very good mod, to bad the main modder left, havent sens a real update to that one in awhile.

 

[Arne]

Update for Warlords Version (only). What is different compared to the older WL-Version?

There are a lot more rivers placed and more ressources esp. near some starting positions. Some more Terrain changes are done. The map is now more balanced again, told the testers. Elisabeth replaces Churchill again.

See Post #1 for more info.

Plaed e few games on the map. Like it alot but some areas that seems ideal for a cityplacement alredy resoruces upon it. Much better having the resoruce next to the city imo.

One example is the position that spain start at, right on a spice resource. Ok its easy to move the settler but its still bugging me... Same goes for ex the spot at the coast of spain, west of spain capital that forces me to settle on a wine to be able to benefit from the fish source.

One example is the position that spain start at, right on a spice resource.

This shouldn't be the case any longer with that new viersion.

Oh, I see. The link here on page #1 referred to the old download (thatone is still available). It is fixed now. Sorry for inconveniences and a Big Thankyou, I didn't notice that until now.

 

[dgb]

Is anyone else having problems downloading the file?

 

[Drogear]

Could the DL link be fixed? I finally got around to test the version...

 

[Arne]

Sorry for this inconveniences, but the Civforum is offline until ... this evening (05. jan.). May be, even any longer. If it is online again, then the download will be fixed too. If it will take any longer (hopefulle it won't), I will upload it here.

[edit: It's working now.]

Arne could you make your map compatible with Blake Better AI map.
Your map is wonderful but not taking advantage of Blake's improvement to the AI is a great miss for its enjoyment

 

[Arne]

Err... I'm not sure, what you mean, what is not compatible? This is only a map, without any changings beside the Leadernames and Starting positions. If you use Blakes CvGameCoreDLL.dll, it should normaly run fine.

 

[marioflag]

Ah ok thank you Arne.I am a bit dumb about computers when it is not related to gaming

 

[Drogear]

This map would be even better if someone could add new civs, poland or any other civ seems needed to fill up space in between Germany and Russia.
Netherlands would be nice to taking some space from France or Germany.
