Is anyone out there going to make a SciFi/Horror Mod? ie Frankenstein/Vampires/Werewolves etc?

Also interested in making an American television mod, ie Lone Ranger/Tonto, Jesse/Frank James, Batman/Robin, Aquaman/Superman etc. ???

"NOBODY" is making a SciFi/Horror MOD????

The reason people don't have new units in the game is because we couldn't have new units until recently. So people are now making mods with new units.

Modder's , how about someone making a mod starting with T-Rex's (Jurassic Park type) then going thru the years.
And promotions if keeping the t-rex's and other dinosauer's to match the new era's??? Just a thought?????

You should post any request for a particular mod in the "Creation and Customization" forum. Also, I'd recommend using only one question mark per sentence and clarifying your thoughts a little; it'll increase the odds that someone will make it.

I don't have Civ4, so I'm not 100% sure, but I think if you miss out on a wonder you lose whatever shields have gone towards it.

Its really easy to give planes the ability to have lethal bomard. That's what I have for my games. Just look through the units xml file for a little while and you should be able to figure it out. If you learn by yourself then you will gain alot more from it than by having someone tell you how to do it

You should be able to open them using Notepad or WordPad.

You'll probably have to right-click the file and choose the "Open With -> Choose Program..." option the first time.

There are tons of guides in the tutorial section about how to edit the XML files. And a good place to find info on what the different XML tags do is at this site: http://civ4wiki.com/wiki/index.php/Main_Page

I don't know how to change the wonders in the way you want. But I have given planes lethal bombardment myself.

You just go into the CIV4UnitInfos.xml file, and look for the entries for the airplanes. Then, for each plane you want to change, alter the <iAirCombatLimit></iAirCombatLimit> to be 100. The default value is 50, which means the plane can only do up to 50% damage to a unit.

DUAL: got it thx how would i save it, i can only open in Notepad or wordpad? isn't it supposed to stay an XML file?

It will stay an XML file when you save it in notepad. Just select File -> Save, like normal.

Is there any way to continue building a different building (once the building you have tried to build, has been built in a differnt culture) using the amount of time you have already spent towards building that building for another building, like in CIV III????


And: How to bombard using artillery (from land) to a sea unit, for a kill!! Whats the xml code?? i think?

Second question first, there is no such xml code. You'll have to add it yourself using the SDK and/or python, or wait for someone else to.

As for the first question the answer is the same. Wait for someone to make i or make it yourself.
