Since it was kind of bothering me, and a few others, I have now fixed the issue with first contact text showing the tag instead of the text. There is now tag/tag agreement, so the text will show up.

This goes in the Assets\XML\GameInfo directory of the mod. It's a text file since you can't upload XML to the forum, but if you rename it back it should work.

Oh, and the reason I'm making a post instead of PM'ing you Maniac is because I can't attach files to PMs. If there's any problems with this file, I apologize, but I'm warning you folks right now that it's only partially tested. I can't warrant that this won't CtD or cause incompatibility of save files...though I seriously doubt it will, since it's just a text mod, especially the save files bit. It's a five minute mod though, so take it for what it's worth.

I could've just edited the Diplo Text file...and have...but posting that file instead of this one would've been lazy and likely would conflict with what apparently is a plan for future growth of the mod. I like the idea of multiple first contact messages myself and would like to see it implemented. *nudge* *nudge* :groucho:
 
Thanks for the file. I guess... (see below ;) )

You can always zip files.

Lazy? :confused:

What plan is that? You know more than me. ;)

Well, partially I kinda intentionally left that first contact error in the game, in the hope that people would get so annoyed with it and someone would start digging in diplomacy texts themselves. :mischief:

I'd love multiple first contact messages myself. However I don't feel like doing it myself - I've got lots of other higher priority stuff to do. If someone would start putting the SMAC's script file diplo texts (which has multiple first contact messages) into XML though, I'd certainly include them in the mod.
