sorry for every people who post new civ, but i was on the Riviera...

gonna fix the first post this afternoon (Paris MT)

for Superciv, I will try to get some room on CFC to get a one and only file for it, but it will wait a little... if someone can PM the change in XML files since the patch, it xould be very nice too.

Don't worry, i will be back soon...

OK, normally, the list is updated... tell me if i miss something

I add pack of brazil in the pack list (hope anima croatorum or somebody else do the slavian pack)

i add civarmy's copys into a separate list...

people can tell me if i should put them in the main list but i prefer giving some chance to other people. Civarmy is really well present in the main list. On the other hand, the copys are separated, they can be seen easier!!! ;-)

.... or someone in the community comes up with a program to take these individual mods and combine them into a larger mod. From experience, it's a PITA.

First of all, I'm the author of the Scotland mod listed above. Thanks LAnkou for the effort in this thread.

Well, now that I've learned what needs to be hacked where in the xml files I'm ready to take on this project.

What I'm thinking of is this: Make a program that has All these civs as well as all the 'stock' civs in it. From a simple menu the user could check all some or none of the civs he/she* wanted in that particular situation. He would then click a button and the program would build the Custom Assets folder in a matter of seconds.

It would also have a function to create a new Civ from scratch by simply entering the info into a form. (Enter cvis name here, adjective here, etc.)
It would also have a unit builder to make/alter custom units.

it would NOT have a way to make new art, but you could import your own art into it.


It would be easiest for me, belive it or not, to make this thing in ACCESS. Problem is, I realize not many people have MS Access.

Choice #2 would be to do the whole damned thing in Excel. That's right Excel, BUT it would be a bit limited in some aspects...

Choice #3 would be to us Visual Basic 6.0 to make a stand alone .exe program. This is choice #3 because I'm a little rusty at stand alone VB.

any thoughts?

Hi! Great and useful work.
A suggestion: why don't you please include Armenians -
one of the most ancient nations of the world, which was the first to adopt Christianity as its official religion and still exist, as you might know.
Armenia has a remarkable, great culture, history, units, leaders and people, and is an open-air museum at the present.
By the way, many cities of other civilizations from CIV3 are indeed armenian cities.
Please contact me for cities, leaders, units, sounds, etc. I would be grateful. Thanks a lot!

don't hesitate to post your comments and links of your new civ, i will try to get this thread updated
if you desire a particular civ to be include first in Superciv, tell it in the Superciv Thread (link above)
if modo's could sticky this, it would be nice too

Enjoy!!

Hello all, I am new to the forums....I love civ4 but am having problems installing the superciv mod..I have not tried any others yet..I downloaded ver 1.00 and 1.03..they were placed in the mod folder and extracted...When I start a new game it says that ver 1.03 is loading and everything appears ok but when I get the menus there is no modifications and only the original game...I cannot figure out what I'm doing wrong...I apologize in advance for posting this question...just don't know where else to go...

Thanks

Try placing it in the "My Documents\myGames\Civ4\CustomAssets" Folder. Then it should just run automatically.

PLease note the path I list above is not exact, but you get the idea: Find the Civ4 folder within your mygames folder under my documents...

 

[LAnkou]

well, the good way to get it working properly is:
0) save both rar files in the mod folder
1) extract V1.00 in the mod folder
2) extract V1.03 in the mod folder (accept all for replacement)
(normally, you don't need to choose a path)
then you should have a unique Superciv folder
in this folder, there is the assets folder

so the path to assets is:
C:/program files/firaxis games/civilization4/mods/superciv/assets

if you don't have this path, it won't work

Korea!
Check my sig.

 

[LAnkou]

korea ok...

 

[Anima Croatorum]

I've made a noticable improvement to Magyar mod. If you could update them before next release...

 

[ChaoticWanderer]

i wodner if anyone can create a phoenician civ.

their uu should be a explorer boat possiblly able to cross ocans and seas ebfore their time but having no attack

 

[englishemperor]

I thought that perhaps Normandy might be a good idea for a new civ - I'm not up to creating any civs myslef since i am a newbie to the game.
The leader would be William Duke of Normandy(William the conqueror) since he conquered England. He would be Expansive and Organised.

Also an idea could be a 1066-Battle for Britain scenario featuring:
NORMANS - William Duke of normandy
SAXONS - Harold Godwin
VIKINGS - Harald Hardraada

You havnt included my Derby County FC Mod in there it may be different but its still a civ

 

[marshallstack]

Is there anyone who can create a thread for civs peeps would like to see created?

Im sure there is already one somewhere else, but one created under the "New Civ" seems like it would be read by modders lol

 

[Shqype]

one of the most ancient nations of the world, which was the first to adopt Christianity as its official religion and still exist, as you might know.

False. There were a few "peoples" that were the "first" to adopt Christianity (Illyrians are included in this as mentioned in the Bible). Perhaps Armenians are amongst this group , with the Jews , but you cannot claim they were "the first."

I would like to see an Armenian civ...

 

[LAnkou]

add Australia "main civs" and Derby County FC mod "other civs"
add civarmy next level mod (packs)

BTW:
it doesn't matter for me if there are some requests on this thread (why not? if it can help people...), but i prefer not having discussion like "this should be in a mod" or "this one should be in cause blablabla..." and having off topic discussions. If people want to discuss about the history of a civ, go to the history forum...

I would really appreaciate if people prevent themselves from discussing the point above...

Thank you all!! continue to make wonderfull civs!!!
(but not too fast, i can't handle it with superciv )
