Civilization 4's - Realism:Resurrected Mod
by Kristine


This thread is now dead. For future versions of this mod, please see this thread.

If you've been following the Realism thread then you know I've picked up the code and done some work with it. If you haven't been following that thread, then now you do know. :) Basically, I took the last release from Jaynus (v0.6), cleaned it up, updated it for v1.52 and then added several mods, which are listed in the changelog.

This is my first mod for ANY Civ, so please be gentle with me. What I'd like to do now is bug fix, stabilize and do some balancing and time tuning, but I will consider additional mods, if they're reasonable and don't involve a huge amount of work and change.

Code:
v0.63
	- Added the Sevopedia v1.9
	- Add TechConquest v0.3
	- Fixed a CTD bug when discovering any Industrial+ tech.

v0.62
	- Update Lost Units to v1.2.
	- Added Snaitf's Unit Allegiance mod, not tested.
	- Added in some missing art.
	- Fixed a bad call to a CulturalDecay function.

- Changes and additions for the new initial release (v0.61)
	- Desert deastically reduced
	- Increased barbarian (and animal) frequencies, allowed the barbs to build
     whatever they want, increased MAX_XP from barbs and animals
	- Emancipation upkeep is now NONE (was LOW)
	- Free Speech upkeep is now NONE (was LOW)
	- Slavery upkeep is now LOW (was NONE)
	- No City Razing defaulted to false.
	- Reset reveal of uranium to physics
	- Cottage now buildable with Pottery, as it is in vanilla Civ4.
	- Winery now build with Priesthood
	- Castle is buildable with Monarchy now, not Engineering
	- +2 health with recycling center
	- supermarket now costs + 1/3
	- supermarket +25% food
	- added Lost Units v1.x
	- added Lost Wonders v1.00
	- added SD-UnitXP v1.00
	- added SD-CultureConquest v1.30
	- added Terraform
	- added Special Domestic Advisor v0.92
	- added Cultural Decay v0.2
	- added homegrown's clock mod
	- added Proper Score Graph v1.7
	- added Real Fort v0.4

v0.6

Hey Kristine, i think the Sevopedia isn't so good :/ I would prefer to keep the old one !
 
Good ! Continue at least to 1.0 :)

Good work !
 
Nice work

Just i note i have added to the realism thread which I think you should be aware of

v6.0

- Removed riflemans (and redcoats) +25% vs. cavalry bonus (a bonus against a moving target, WTH?!)

Actually rifleman and redcoats were very effective against cavalry. When confronted by a cavalry charge they would adopt a infantry square formation. This consisted of a hollow square facing our on all side with fixed bayonets.

Once formed cavalry had almost no effect against it. During the battle of Waterloo the British adopted four rank squares and withstood eleven unsupported cavalry charges. The idea was to fire volleys either by file or by rank at the last possible second. It was even possible to trap cavalry charges with companies of infantry taking up infantry square formation and manoeuvre to mass fire. Think of a chess board but with gaps - the cavalry would be funneled around the squares and meet up with yet more infantry squares.

Now perhaps you understand why Civ 4 gave riflemen and redcoats +25% against cavalry :)

Why you don't remove the ocean movement handicap of ironclads?

My most sincere apologies, Bh. Failing to give credit for the work of all those who created the mods I included was not intentional.

any chance to see abbamouse's religious mod included in the future?

by looking at the thread's title, it seems like the treshold of PC has already been trespassed. some christian might be offended by the name of the mod now ;)
 
Woohoo i am on the list and i haven't actually done anything yet :p
Am I good or what lol.

hehe but like i said if you need any help feel free to give me a holler... though I am having fun playing with the tech tree in my Mod :lol:
 
Hey Kristine, i've found a bug in multiplayer:

The first time we launched, we've got a "Out of Sync" error. I've searched and i just found an error of installation from my buddy. but after 15min of multiplayer, we've got this error again. I've checked ours folders, they are EXACTLY at the same size (they are the same).
When i create with the save and he try to join, the game says him that he had to launch the game again ! (The mod is already loaded !).
I hope this can be fixed!

I dunno what can cause this Syncronization error. :/

well, some features of your mod would be equally nice here too, I guess... namely the "tree nursery" or half price unit upgrades. but I like the lost wonders a lot :p

Edit: dbkblk, isnt that a general 1.52 bug?

I don't know, but I don't see why it wouldn't be compatible.

Well, I like the Sevopedia, as do many others, so that's why it's included. If you don't like it, then you can remove it by removing the following files:

I do now understand, and if it's OK with most everyone, I'll put it back. BTW, I didn't make that change, it was done by Jaynus in the original Realism mod.

That's part of vanilla Civ4. Copper is revealed when Bronze Working is researched.

Those who know better than I will tell you that ironclads were not ocean going vessels. If I recall correctly, they were exceptionally unsuited for open water. I did, however, increase the movement from 2 to 3.
