Since I started with game of the month, I have buffy05 loaded per default, and I play most games with this mod.

How do I handle this in the best way, to be able to share savefiles here on the forums in a smooth manner?
I can't share the buffy05 saves, but would like to share nomod-saves.

My current workaround is to save a wordbuilder save from my buffy05 save. Then start civ4 without mods and start a custom scenario from that wb-save.
If I then save the game, I do get a nomod-save to share on the forums.
This approach has the disadvantage of losing some things, such as cities culture status, and players tech progress among other things.

How do you handle these matters?
 
Well, you could play non-hof/gotm games with BUG/BULL in custom assets. You don’t have to have mods default load. Just create shortcuts.

However, if you continue to use BUFFY 5 for all your games, I would not worry much about it. Many have it installed anyway, and....well...if they do not maybe your games serve as inspiration to do just that.

And yep, mid-game wb saves are worthless.

(Personally, I always use BAT for my games)
