[MOD] Fall from Heaven II

Please, tell, is it possible to somehow remove the new FfH interface and use the usual Civ4 interface? New skin looks really cool, but it slows my game slightly...

You have one of the scenario options enabled. Probably form playing Fall Further. You may want to load up Fall Further, disable all the game options and then reload FfH.
 
Patch "c" is linked in the first post. It makes the following changes and won't break save games:

1. Puppets are no longer alive.
2. Priests of Winter and High Priests of Winter gain free XP (they weren't supposed to, but its confusing to have them be the only priests that don't).
3. Glory Everlasting now correctly requires 70 AC.
4. Fixed an issue displaying the disabled research, production and spellcasting timers (they could sometimes show as 0).
5. Added a new Trophy for defeating the Leviathan.
6. Added a new Trophy for killing Auric Ascended with the Godslayer.
7. New Devout model art by seZereth.

Hi Kael
Kudos to all again for this wonderful game.

I have some similar problems to carnivore.

I was playing multiplayer last night with patch A - worked mostly fine (some problems now addressed by patches B and C) but noted that there is no prompting at game start (or when after any tech is achieved) to pick the next tech to research.

I've now just updated with patch C, tried a single player game and found ALL techs coloured red i.e. unable to research any.

I have previously played lots of Fall Further so I booted it up, but couldn't find any options likely to affect FfH (I rarely vary the options and haven't recently.) I turned off all options anyway, rebooted FfH and have the same problem with techs (i.e. all coloured red and unresearchable).
I presume this is a bug, not my setup.

Also (whilst I'm here) that, whilst playing FF (I presume this bug also affects FfH) as Elohim, I was lucky enough to have the Mirror of Heaven within 4 squares of my initial city. Every time I moved any unit onto the Mirror of Heaven, all my cities gained +1 happiness. I presume this is meant to happen only once - I felt almost guilty when I realised I was never going to have happiness problems in ANY of my cities!! :D:D
I suspect this effect wasn't intended however...

Thanks

In my last game I found a dungeon in Sheelba´s territory and also the goblin fort that was defended by a barbarian archer wasn´t plundered when she uesed her world spell

that's because civs with the barbarian traits cannot explore lairs. they can however "purchase" troops from goblin forts, which is a very nice perk ;)
 
Hi all, I am having problems loading this mod. I have civ 4 installed via cd, and BtS installed via Steam (patched up to 3.17). I install FFH 2 .34 and patch it, and have tried both with and without the media pack. What happens is when i click on the shortcut it installs on my desktop, I get a message saying that Mods\Fall from Heaven 2 034 \ is an invalid mod directory, ignoring . After that, BtS loads normally, but without the mod. Any tips? THanks in advance.
 
small update 13.1o.o8

The Elohim Devout finally got her Unit Art. I created her after the unit button picture. Hope you like her...

My friends and I have been trying to play this for the last week and we tried Fall Further first but kept getting the OOS issue between the xp and vistas. So we downloaded the fall from heaven 34 and patch c last night, but whenever we started a game it crashed during the load. Anyone else seen this or know what the problem could be?

There are some Vista issues, there have been messages earlier in this post, but I do not remember the content. So, I do not know if there is a good solution with Vista at all. If you got time you will surely find the information.

No, we are going to stay on the Beyond the Sword code base.

Dont use the shortcut to load the mod, load it normally. The shortcut assumes the mod is in the normal place and cant find it when its installed by steam.
 
Can anyone answer my question, ple-e-ease?
Is it possible to remove the new FfH interface and use the vanilla Civ4 interface? New skin looks slows my game down slightly.

There isnt an option to disable it or anything. You could revert back but it would be a lot of work to do it.

I wouldn't suspect that it would cause a slowdown, its essentially using one image instead of another. From the engine perspective its the same process.

Why do you suspect its the interface as compared to other aspects of FfH causing the slowdown?
 
Because I had the same slowdown, when I used Fall Further 0.42 with the "beautiful" interface (armageddon counter picture, additional bars etc.), and I asked Vehem for an original interface xml. When I replaced the new one by the original one, the slowdown disappeared. Currently, Fall Further 0.42 and Fall from Heaven 0.33 with "vanilla" interface run just fine, and FfH 0.34 with "beautiful" interface is very slow.

Also, it doesn't look like FfH should significantly slow my PC - I have Athlon 6000+, 2 Gb RAM, fresh Windows XP installation and one of the latest Asus GeForce cards...

Excuse me, if I'm nasty, but that slowdowns just give me nuts...
 
An alternative loading screen background image would be nice at some point.. The current doomrider one (or whatever that is) is a bit too scary :king:

You can change it in the Options. I like the "Warlords" one, with Sphener on it.
