Questions & Answers

Hi...sorry if this has been raised before. Couldn't find the answer. I recently updated to Warlords, but the mod version (I updated to the mod for Warlords as well) does not seem to work. I load it from the menu, the splash screen appears, but then this error appears, entitled "XML Load Error"

Failed Loading XML file XML\GameInfo/CIV4EraInfos.xml. [.\FXml.cpp:133] Error parsing XML file -
File: XML\GameInfo/CIV4EraInfos.xml
Reason: Element content is invalid according to the DTD/Schema
Expecting: {x-schema:CIV4GameInfoSchema.xml}EraInfoSoundtracks.
Link: 43, 27
Source: <bFirstSoundtrackFirst>0</bFirstSoundtrackFirst>

Upon pressing "OK" I receive another XML error -

LoadXML call failed for GameInfo/CIV4EraInfos.xml.
Current XML file is: Terrain/CIV4TerrainInfos.xml

Pressing OK again, the errors come one after another, with the XML file changing in each...

Warlords by itself works fine. What d'ya think?

For teh second string of errors, you need to clear the XML cache. Hold the shift button while the game loads.
 
Didn't stop either of the errors, that one =(

EDIT: sorry! Didn't mean to reply twice ^_^

No problem. Since this is an isolated event, I would suggest re-downloading the mod file and re-installing. The file could have corrupted while being downloaded. Also, make sure you have the most recent patch of Warlords, 2.08.
 
Hey Rhye, have you checked out this thread yet? http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=217981

It looks like Kael has managed to massively improve turn times by shifting most game functions from python to C++. I know development is officially over, but this seems like the type of thing you would be incredibly interested in.
 
That looks great! Maybe I would start to play RFC:W again, haven't played for a while because the waiting times.

as far as I can see, he didn't invent anything, but just moved some python code into c++. It's for the unmodded game only, and he didn't even post the source code of the changes....

Well yeah, no one said he invented anything. He just transfered functions from python (which is slow) to C++ (which is fast). I believe Kael said that that source code was forthcoming. Obviously since its made for the unmodded game it would need to be merged with RFC's source code.

no blue marble... no other additions either (aside from vishaing's RFC++), i think
 
If you don't achieve your historical victory conditions, can you win though regular victory conditions? eg. Spain is not the first to circumvent the globe. Has Spain lost?

If you play as England and place 3 cities on each continent, do you have really bad city distance maintenance costs or is there some new civic that reduces this?

I'm currently at university and don't have a copy of Civ with me. I would find these answers out myself if I could. Thanks!

Of course you can. I don't often go for the UHVs anyway.

No.
