How do I copy buildings and wonders ?

[Pomphis]

There are some buildings and wonders available as modcomponents or parts of other mods which I would like to copy. Is there any tutorial or instructions on how to do this ? Is it better/easier to start with the modcomponent or to take it from a mod that already uses it ?

Most likely the easiest way is to take modcomps and add them as modules. I kind of hate not having everything together, but if you can accept that and isn't planning on modding the DLL in any way where this matters, then modules is likely the way to go.

Thank you. I don´t quite understand this part:

Assets\Modules\Switzerland_CIV4ArtDefinesSchema.xml
2. Every modular file needs a "*_" at its beginning. In my example case, I used "Switzerland_".
It is recommended to rename all schemas to Switzerland_*

I see three different Versions; first "Switzerland_", then "*_" at the beginning and finally "_*"

Do you know which one it is ?

One wonder I am interested in is Trafalgar Square. The modcomp has a number of TrafalgarSquare files I might copy to Modules, but also a CvEventManager.py in a Python Folder. Is that needed too ?

Another is the Arc de Triomphe. It has in addition to the XML files a CvGameUtils.py in a seperate Python folder. Is that needed ?

All files needs a prefix, meaning they are all *_ where * is the same name for all of them. Switzerland is an example. _* is actually *_X where * is the fixed name (same as before) while X is the unique name for that file.

Another is the Arc de Triomphe. It has in addition to the XML files a CvGameUtils.py in a seperate Python folder. Is that needed ?

Questions regarding specific mods/modcomps are likely best asked in the thread dedicated to said mods.
