Help with making a Civ

[CivOasis]

Ok, so, I'm trying to mod a new civ into the game. Rather than posting a new thread whenever I have a question (since I'm sure to have many), I decided to make this thread for all of my questions. Might help some future modders, too.
First off, I've more or less finished the civ. I have a UU, UB, semi-well done UA, AI, etc. No graphics, hoping to get some help with that.
So, here's the error I got when trying to build the civ:

Error 1 An unexpected token ")" was found at character position 68 in condition "'($(PackageMod)' != 'false' And '$(Configuration)' != 'Deploy Only')". C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Firaxis\ModBuddy\Civ5Mod.targets 117 42 CostaRicanCiv

Mod's attached.
Any ideas?

Here is your fix =)

Thanks!
Unfortunately, I am going to aks another question: Where would the "targets" file be located?

 

[Opusegg]

C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\common\sid meier's civilization v sdk\ModBuddy\Build\Civ5Mod.targets

the file you need to open is Civ5Mod.targets. Its is in the build folder, in the ModBuddy folder, in the sdk folder. The above path is just for the steam version, but I'm sure you can find it from a boxed version by looking for the outlined file structure.

Much appreciated, it built and came up in the mod list now.
Unfortunately, I can't select the civ.
Any ideas on that?

Can you be more specific? Does it not show up in any lists (both set up and advanced set up)?

I have just finished my first civ and I ran into the same problem. My fix was I had (-) minus signs scattered throughought my files. I simply had to delete these and make sure rows were displayed properly. Also. My civ likes to dissapear when using a custom leader atlas if I switched to a pre-existing leader example. I made the Mayans so for my leader pakal I used the civ leader atlasand used <2> in portrait index for mintezuma and magically my civ worked. Its not my custom art but it may help you troubleshoot. Let me know if you have any sucess
