Ok here is the deal. I cant figure out how to add new civs to a map.
I wanted to add portugal as a civ to a map using Sevomod wich includes portugal. As far as i can see i've done all the correct additions in the XML worldbuilder file. But when I load the map, portugal doesnt appear on the civ list. The mod is ofcourse also loaded.

This is the main addition to the XML file:

BeginPlayer
Team=18
LeaderType=LEADER_Henrique
LeaderName=Henrique
CivDesc=Portugese Empire
CivShortDesc=Portugal
CivAdjective=Portugal
FlagDecal=Art/Interface/TeamColor/flagDECAL_Portugal.dds
WhiteFlag=0
CivType=CIVILIZATION_PORTUGAL
Color=PLAYERCOLOR_GREEN
ArtStyle=ARTSTYLE_EUROPEAN
PlayableCiv=1
MinorNationStatus=0
StartingGold=0
StartingX=16, StartingY=27
StateReligion=
StartingEra=ERA_ANCIENT
CivicOption=CIVICOPTION_GOVERNMENT, Civic=CIVIC_DESPOTISM
CivicOption=CIVICOPTION_LEGAL, Civic=CIVIC_BARBARISM
CivicOption=CIVICOPTION_LABOR, Civic=CIVIC_TRIBALISM
CivicOption=CIVICOPTION_ECONOMY, Civic=CIVIC_DECENTRALIZATION
CivicOption=CIVICOPTION_RELIGION, Civic=CIVIC_PAGANISM
Handicap=HANDICAP_NOBLE
EndPlayer


If someone PLEASE tell me what im doing wrong?
That would really make my day!:thanx:

You can only have 18 civs (numbered 0-17) on a single map, anything beyond that will be ignored. You'll have to replace an existing civ if you want to add Portugal.

Aaaww! That would explain it yes. But is there any way to change that so you can have more than 18 civs in a game?

Nope. That's one of the things that stinks about Civ4. Even if you could, I'm sure most people's computers would explode in the Middle Ages with more than 18 civs.

Check the worldtype XML. Each map size has a limited number of civs which you should be able to change.

Neat, but where is the worldtype xml. I couldn't find it.
 
Ok i found it, however i could only change the default numbers of players on a non premade map. I couldn't change the max number of players on any given map.
...or maybe i could?
