JFD and Janboruta's Civilisations

[Smartguy725]

Two things I have noticed about Norway:


1: The "portraits" for the uniques, aren't they the same as the ones for Tomatekh's Kievan Rus'?

2: What the heck is the decisions mod? Are you trying to make Civ 5 more like EU4?

It's support for Sukritact's mod, which isn't released yet

They are, but I can't see why is this a problem. In any case, I will be making a new icon for Kievan Veche UB, but not until I'm done with more pressing matters.

Nice civ update.

Sorry, fixed a few bugs with Norway. Those using the direct version, please re-download.

I can't thank you enough for updating Norway -- yaaay!

Norway looks great. I will give them a try after DJS' Algeria.

Take a look at this

Awesome, I knew there had to be a way to do it.

Also, really glad to see Norway is back, I've been wanting to try that civ. One question on the new Norway UA "Begin with all coastal tiles visible" is that ALL coastal tiles or just the workable ones near you?

A question about Prussia. Began a new game with them last night. I noticed that the unit ID screen permanently has an interesting window above it with what normally has the units promotions. Most of them are crossed out (like a Ghostbusters symbol). I also noticed that when my scout fought a barb, it was now able to perform a concert tour, but not able to skip a turn or to fortify. Um...is that something that is supposed to be happening?

All - although it's just the fog of war is lifted.

Sounds like a more serious problem than something Prussia can be causing. Try deleting your cache folder (My Documents/My Games/Sid Meier's Civilization V/), as the problem seems related to the UI.

Hey, I'm super excited about the Norway update, but one issue I have had is that on the YNAEMP large Europe map Haakon is still not supported, I checked and he works fine on the Giant Earth, but something about just doing Europe is a lot more appealing to me. Still a great update, but just wanted to let you know to see if it could be easily fixed.

If you don't use Gedemon's map, it won't screw things up to remove the compatability (which eliminates database errors), will it?

That has happened to me before, including one game where Prussia was not installed. I've found that reloading the mods (as in leaving to the main menu and then returning) usually fixes it.

Sorry, I see that I made a mistake in the file. I've reuploaded, and Europe should now be supported. Thank you for letting me know.

Mine do not produce database errors. I have implemented support in a way that no database errors will show up whatsoever when you do not have YnAEMP enabled (in the latest mods with Decisions support, at least: so Belgium, Victoria, Hannibal, Khazaria and Norway; I am working on the rest as I go along).

Sorry, I either didn't see your post or forgot about it. The Ski Infantry is removed altogether.

 

[Zantonius Hamm]

Excuse me, but why did you outright nerf Denmark? I quite honestly don't think the new longboat is good enough to replace the +1 movement for embarked units (which I see you've transferred to Norway) and I personally found Denmark's UA underpowered on beforehand. I hope you're planning on revising Denmark more than this; it will be required for me to fully accept the new Norway mod.

 

[Zantonius Hamm]

Also no oil in the new Norway. I get you want to focus on Håkon's time period, but I do not see you making a modern Norway civ. Shame. The oil completely changed our country.

 

[JFD]

If it's proven to be truly a nerf, verifiably (by myself, or someone else - the latter, most likely, however), then I'll certainly revise it further. For now, first-hand impressions aren't enough to convince me of a change being necessary.

The preclusion of the oil is a thematic and flavoursome shame, but I didn't want to have the UA composed of too many distinct parts. If I had kept the Knarr, it would have certainly been applied. But it is not about focusing on Medieval Norway; it is about a coherent and driving theme, which being able to build oil rigs in neutral territory defeats (why colonise, if you don't need cities to improve oil?)
