FML 4-Shaka

[EMT]

Well, I hate to post this. Really, I do. I've become quite busy with the 4th quarter of school starting, with SOLs, Finals, and generally the hardest chunks of classes that I've taken. I haven't even been able to devote time to the writeup! Neither EU, Civ, or Total War have been played for days! I feel stressed, and I have a sense of guilt that I've left people hanging for an update on this. Until summer, I'm going to have to suspend regular updates. Until mid-June or so, my face is going to be grounded into textbooks by my parents, and if need be, myself. I WILL still play rounds, but I can't promise regular updates anymore. I'm not going to compromise myself, because then I'll feel even more guilty. I hope you all understand, and actually are still interested enough in my series to read an update when I get around to it. You may be wondering how I had enough time to type this up. Well, during my easiest class(with the least amount of work infact), being Programming, I have time to type up things at rare opportunities when the teacher's busy, and I pre-typed this about 5 hours ago.

We understand, don't worry and don't be guilty We have lives of our own and we understand that life gets in the way sometimes.

 

[CHEESE!]

What's a 'life'?

 

[Yared]

That thing that you do when you're not playing civ.

 

[CHEESE!]

I've never come across that situation. Can you post a save?

 

[Yared]

I'm afraid my mod is incompatible with your patch version.

 

[CHEESE!]

Just go into WorldBuilder and save it.

Unfortunately, WB doesn't work with it. Ohh, there have been many a time where I've wished I could drop a modern armour outside my enemies' cities

 

[Vengeance107]

Wow. Just read through all your LSOE threads, and as another young player who aspires to be great at civ, it is inspiring to see what you created here. Shame that it's dead now, and for 12 years

I tried the 4000 BC save and it's kind of insane. I have no idea how OP could have survived without GW (he wrote a lot of Shaka historical fantasy, but didn't really give details about what he did ). It takes about 5 turns to go from "uhoh first barb archer" to "FIVE barb archers WTH!"

Thanks for the necro!

I'll try out the mod today as soon as I can get it installed on the computer, but I think I'll have to get a bit better before playing that save without GW

Glad to bring this back to life (hopefully)

Do you need a mod? I played his save with stock BTS and it worked just fine.

I was referring to the custom earth addition itself, idk if it would be classified as a mod

Hey floydmcw, can you please send me the customearth2 file, as I can no longer access it from the domain CivEarth

I don't have a customearth2 file. I downloaded the 4000 BC save in this thread.

So I guess I don't have any way to play as say a European power and take 150 turns to meet someone in Africa, after building a 4-unit stack and travelling through AI countries with absolutely no roads.

At least I can still play with those saves ...

I know the feeling
