Try that. Because, as said, it might be a matter of corrupted download. Also, you might want to patch the mod with the current patches. All the patches are listed on the Fairy Tale downloads page. And please keep us updated.

OK, by reading the error messages I was getting, I found that your mod is conflicting with all of the files that were in the Beyond the Sword/Assets/Modules/Custom Units folder. When I removed all of the files in that folder, I had no problem loading your mod. I don't understand why only your mod would have a problem with that folder.

 

[Le Sage]

Thanks for the info! I've already tracked down the wrong setting using your report. There is a function in Fairy Tale's .ini-file called Modular Loading. This value is turned to 1. It will probably solve the issue by turning it to 0. I will change it by the next update, so noone else will have these kinds of conflicts either.

Thanks for reporting.

Your solution works, I'm glad to report. I changed that setting, put the files back in the folder, and the mod loads with no problems. I was wrong when I said only your mod had that problem. There was one other I tried where the same conflict occurred. Now I can load that one too. I guess it pays to read those error messages when they appear.

 

[Le Sage]

Wow. Nice. I'll include this info in my FAQ right now! You might also want to inform the creators of the other mod that conflicts, so they're aware.

Thanks again.

HI i have downloaded this mod and have followed all the instructions and still nothing!

I go to the game and load the mod and it loads fine.
The name is in the corner. But when i go to play a scenario all i get is the noraml stuff please help!

 

[The_J]

I guess i should somewhen write a FAQ, that problem occurs more often (also see here):
Check the installation of Fairy Tale:
In there in Mods\Fairy Tale another folder "Fairy Tale"? If yes, move everything from that second folder into the first folder and try it again.

 

[Le Sage]

The wrong installation path is often the crook in solving this kind of problem. Hope you get it running with the tips above, Gragor. And do not hesitate to write if you need more help.

(Also there are a few FAQ-tips for you in the Fairy Tale manual which is found packaged with the mod.)

 

[Gragor]

yes i put it in the my programs file path.
however i did extract the file should i have not done that?

 

[ono-neko]

What's the path exactly look like? Is it something like C:\Program Files\Firaxis Games\Sid's... Civ4\Bts\mods\Fairy Tales\Fairy Tales\ ?

 

[Gragor]

Its:
C;/Program Files/Games/Civilization4/Beyond the sword/Mods

 

[Gragor]

Anybody there?

 

[MajKira]

The Expansion​

Civ5 being a great disappointment with serious limitations to both gameplay and modding, I continue to develop Fairy Tale 1. I have an expansion in the works. Read all about it here in the thread on the Development Forum.

Cheers!

 

[MajKira]

Come on, show FairyTale Civ5
Bumping upp

 

[Ambreville]

That Desura thing is incomprehensible. Is there a way to download the mod without this nonsense?

 

[charlesb96]

First, thank you for getting all the skysnake spells working again.
Now some sugestions.
In Neoteric world, they have a mod for Espionage, where the spys get experience and promotions and can become super James Bond type spys and do very much more. Can you include that in a future version?
Also, the Norse Civilization. Shouldn't their melee units all get a free promotion of Amphibious? That is what the Vikings were good at, raids from the sea. Not just the melee units, but the Queen, Prince, Princess, and Emperor too, when (if) they get them?
Can you make a Recon unit that can fly, scout out from a city to spy out the area, but not attack? Call it a Flying Carpet, or Flying Monkeys?

Le Sage has moved all his efforts to a new Fairy Tale expansion, which you can find here.

Soro,

LeSage hasnt touched that project since October of last year. Last I heard, months ago, he scrapped it.

He's got a post up from 11/10 in which he speaks of having found a backup of his thought-lost work, and talk of moving onto Fairy Tale 2. Though you're right, it's been a while.
