One last error on the text file. Please help.
P.S. Thanks for all your help.

 

[The_J]

What is the error?

(you have to tell me exactly, because i can't load it, i'm not at my gaming computer)

 

[civlearner99]

Invalid source at beginning of Civ4textyourciv.xml Source: <GameText>

 

[civlearner99]

Please reply!!

 

[The_J]

I have to guess now:

<!-- Game Text - New -->

If you put the - in the middle, then remove it please.
Else i'll need the precise error text

I tried modding again, adding Finland, and the mod works, except for the fact that a lot of things have the TXT_SOMETHING_CIV or that instead of the real name. But it works

Exact Error: Failed Loading XML file xml/text/gametextinfos_yourciv.xml. [.\FXml.cpp:133] Error parsing XML File-
File: xml\text\gametextinfos_yourciv.xml

Line: 1,1

By the way... I could have related errors.

Nice to hear .
Check, if the TXT_KEY references to the text files are really correct.

With what programm did you edit the file?
Because it added some signs to the beginning, , which screw up the loading.
(no idea why i did not see that before )

 

[civlearner99]

Notepad

here's a copy of my updated file

 

[Asaf]

The file was encoded in UTF-8 with BOM (byte order mark) - these were the characters The_J saw.
In addition it didn't have the XML header which specified the encoding.

Try the attached file (can't try it myself right now, but I think it'll work).

BTW, there's really no need to post every couple of minutes if no one has posted since. If you want to add information you can edit your last post

And I suggest moving on to Notepad++. It's free and much more comfortable for text editing than notepad.
You can also see the current encoding at the bottom right, and you have a menu for changing it.

Point is, TXT_KEY_JUSTANIAN shouldn't be a problem, since I only added a civ. Maybe it's that I took the Hippodrome art for the Pesapällo field (UB, replaces Colloseum)

 

[The_J]

...er...do i understand you right, that you did not edit any of the original text files (or a copy of them in your mod folder), but there are still entries broken which should get loaded out of these files?

 

[Civ'ed]

No, I edited the text files, but some of the file links i did NOT touch are broken.

 

[The_J]

All links from one file, or only some of them?

 

[Civ'ed]

only some. For example, all Byzantine Text Files.

 

[civlearner99]

AnotherProblem. Error on tags not matching in text file. By the way, this is a different mod.

please attach the file.
