MAO_ZEDONG bug corrected

[Rathelon]

That's because you were using an old xml file. If you patched to 1.61 cleanly, it made those changes for you in all the appropriate places, and in game it is still COMMUNISM, even if the xml files reference it as utopia.

Trust me, I had the same text_key_chinese_leader problem, along with communism and Three Gorges Dam not displaying properly at first also. To fix it I uninstalled Civ IV as well as completely deleted the MyGames/SidMeier's CivilizationIV directory (mods and all). Then reinstalled the game and patched to 1.61, and everything was back to normal. Communism and Mao still there.

The only lingering problem I got was that Mao wasn't changed to CHINESE_LEADER in the Diplomacy files.

It seems China has some strict laws about using certain names in games. So Firaxis had to change some of them to get past the red tape and legally sell the game there.

Such as:
communism (to utopia)
forbidden_palace (to great_palace)
threegorgesdam (to great_dam)
mao_zedong (to chinese_leader)

Hmm... that makes sense.

Well, some people say the text stays same with 1.61. Others say it changed. I am from those ones. I installed CIV from scratch, patched to 1.61, then had weird text as Chinese leader etc.


Maybe it is different for my french version.


Anyway, the "patch" I posted here adressed this issue for those who experienced same problems as I did. I think there is no need to debate anymore if I am right or wrong. It seems I am not alone with this problem, so it was fixed

Did you delete also cache?

Great job, Salamandre!!
That bug was really bothering me. Do you know how can I fix the problem
of the TECH_COMMUNISM, BUILDINGCLASS_FORBIDDEN_PALACE and the
BUILDINGCLASS_THREEGORGESDAM??
Yours,

Yep. Everything.

Yours,

With some text editor change all _COMMUNISM to _UTOPIA, _FORBIDDEN_PALACE to _GREAT_PALACE, _THREEGORGESDAM to _GREAT_DAM (and _MAO_ZEDONG to _CHINESE_LEADER) in Mods\ and Customassets\

Use editors "change in files" function.

Thank you very much, Kahkonen.

the only thing that happened was that every line containing
LEADER_MAO_ZEDONG
was replaced to
LEADER_CHINESE_LEADER

and

TECH_COMMUNISM
to
TECH_UTOPIA

Forbidden Palace was also changed to Great Palace, and the Three Gorges Dam was changed to Great Dam.

 

[Kahkonen]

Forbidden Palace was also changed to Great Palace, and the Three Gorges Dam was changed to Great Dam.

The names changed also? When I patched, it only changed XML-tags not the strings. In the game it still reads Mao, Three Gorges, Forbidden and Communism.

 

[Kahkonen]

Well, some people say the text stays same with 1.61. Others say it changed.

With my edition there is of course still Mao Zedong (which is in files CHINESE_LEADER tag). In your zip there are only six files, but I can find CHINESE_LEADER in seven files:
Assets\XML\Art\CIV4ArtDefines_Leaderhead.xml
Assets\XML\Civilizations\CIV4CivilizationInfos.xml
Assets\XML\Civilizations\CIV4LeaderHeadInfos.xml
Assets\XML\GameInfo\CIV4DiplomacyInfos.xml
Assets\XML\Text\CIV4DiplomacyText.xml
Assets\XML\Text\CIV4GameTextInfos_Objects.xml (this is not in your zip)
Assets\XML\Text\CIV4GameText_Civilopedia_CivLeaders.xml

How can your fixes work when there is CHINESE_LEADER in CIV4GameTextInfos_Objects.xml and MAO_ZEDONG in other files?

 

[Salamandre]

I didnt find it in gametextinfos . But I already played with MAO till the end and everything shows properly. While before I had weird caracters. My fix is OK. If any finds any error let me know.

 

[Kahkonen]

I didnt find it in gametextinfos .

That's weird. It is in line 13390:

	<TEXT>

Thank you, got it. I added to the second ZIP . Not sure it is necessary, because I had no errors, but just in case, may affect translations. I should expect from a guy who translated whole game to find my error
