Frequently Asked Questions

While it's certainly true that the scenarios were designed for the unmodded game, not only was base FfH2 updated several times after the scenarios were first introduced, but it remains an unfinished product. Kael was planning further bugfixes and AI improvements, as I recall, before stopping further work.

It's been a long time since I played regular FfH2, but I do remember the AI changing radically after one of the patches, and not in a good way. During a war with the AI, it would retreat and evacuate cities, leaving them undefended or nearly so. Then it was building monster stacks of doom.

Full disclosure, I've never tried the scenarios myself, but given all the changes post-introduction of the scenarios and the unfinished nature of the base mod, it might not offer the best playing experience for the scenarios any more.

 

He asked about base ffh2 not MNAI, and it was Tholal that added that to scorch in MNAI (in the code for scorch you will find a note by Tholal saying he made that change)

You should report MNAI bugs in the MNAI Bug Thread:

Tried to load your game, hoping I might spot something (not specific to MNAI), but it crashed the game ("Failed to uncompress game data."). I am using the most recent version of MNAI, so that shouldn't be the problem.

 

his question ending up getting answered by himself anyway

 

I am trying to install FFH2 (update o, no modmods) on top of Civilization IV The Complete Edition. My install directory is
C:\Program Files (x86)\2K Games\Firaxis Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 4 Complete\Beyond the Sword\Mods
and I am running Windows 7 professional. The install directories were originally marked read only and I made them all not-read only. I am installing as an admin.

When I run the FFH2 N install, it unzips everything to the mods directory and makes a Fall From Heaven 2 directory with subdirectories, etc. But there is an error message at the end saying that it did not install correctly. Same thing happens when I run the media pack and the o patch.

When I launch FFH2, I get a crash to desktop.

Any suggestions?

 

Try pointing the installers at your desktop and once they are done drag and drop them into the mod directory.

deius dei shrine for one, think priest/high priest of lugus (religion?) does too

 

Hawks, from the hunting technology, would probably be the easiest way.
