HOW TO: Modify the religions

[The Rusty Gamer]

That's OK. I found a mod that removes religion.

 

[TCM]

I was wondering if it's possible to add other unique effects to the religions, for instance, messing with military strength or city maintenance costs, or the like.

when i try to modify it this comes up wat do i do?

oh dear

 

[annoyed grrr]

oh dear

I thought I'd say what most people are thinking but Civ is too scared to step on egg shells.

Any chance of making a suicide bomber for all Islamic states anyone?

No, really, I wasn't laughing with you - I was laughing at you

 

[annoyed grrr]

Wow - I'm honoured you find me funny.

Holy Jesus. Forgive the pun, but this is exactly the kind of guide I've been looking for. Manichaeism mod here I come! (eventually!)

sorry profs,
i need help, because i became desperate with the religions.

My mod:
At the beginning there are all without one religions already in the world (<TechPrereq>NONE</TechPrereq>). One religion should found later in the game <TechPrereq>TECH_DIVINE_RIGHT</TechPrereq>.

The Problem:
If i try my mod, some civilisation find after three rounds the last religion without having TECH_DIVINE_RIGHT.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Is there a event that gives a civilisation without religion the last free one? Or where is my bug?

Ok, I have a couple of question I would like answers for:

1: Can you set up a way to remove a religion from one of you cities?

Ex: Chicago has Judahism, but you want Christianity, and only Christianity in all your cities.

2: Can you set it up a way that discovery a tech allows you to build a holy wonder, and that holy wonder founds the religion instead of the tech.

Ex: Theology allows you to build the Church of the Nativity, and the Church of the Nativity founds Christianity.

3: Can you set up a religious unit that has the ability to cast curses on your enemies.

Ex: Confusiosism preist can cast Folly. Folly causes targeted units to loose all experience. Folly consumes the preist.

1: Can you set up a way to remove a religion from one of you cities?
-open the worldbuilder and edit the city

2: Can you set it up a way that discovery a tech allows you to build a holy wonder, and that holy wonder founds the religion instead of the tech.
-not with xml-modding, but maybe there is a other way i don´t know... (Corporation is found by a building)

3: Can you set up a religious unit that has the ability to cast curses on your enemies.
-this, i think, is also out of xml, sorry (but maybe look on the bts-Mod: Gods of Old)

Be careful with that one. If you remove a religion from a city in WB, it also unassigns that religion's Holy City which you'd then have to go back and reset. I always thought it was a bug (and changed it on my version) but it might be some really odd feature.

If you're rolling your own mod, you can use CyCity.setHasReligion() to remove religions; if you want something already implemented, take a look at the Inquisitor mod (should be on the first or second page of the Mod Components forum)

Can you set it up a way that discovery a tech allows you to build a holy wonder, and that holy wonder founds the religion instead of the tech.

You can stop the techs from founding religions by editing the XML (somewhere ) And you should be able to handle it yourself using Python. Although not the same, the Preventing Religion Founding topic probably has some pointers in this area.

I have created the button for a religion I created. The button will appear in the civilopaedia, on the religion adviser panel, and on the diplomatic screen to show that a leader is a certain religion. However, the button will not appear above the name of a city or next to the name of a leader in the little black box that shows how many points each civilization has.

Can anyone help me?

You had to work on the gamefonts.tga.
Look here http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=181119

It looks a bit complicated, but if you manage it one time it´s easy. There was also somewhere a thread about adding bonuses and resources, but i cannot find it now.

Thanks. That should do it.
