I have a very nice America save, I can post it if I figure how to post files. Most of North and Central America is British (with the exception of New Orleans and the Aztecs). The Dutch have one city and the Vikings have couple in the tundra. Only the Dutch have the Democracy and would trade MS for it on the second or third turn. You can complete the Statue of Liberty only with Chop and regular hammers (bureaucracy) without the need for an engineer. Overall the game work remarkably historically accurately for a civ with such a late start.

Anyone interested?

That sounds good Miro, perhaps you can add it to the wiki.

For the Historical Name Changing what cause each name to appear I can tell with some but for others I can't.

what do you want to know?

what do you want to know?

The TXT_KEY_DN_01 ones through TXT_KEY_DN_04 specifically for the colonial civs (Spain, France, England, Netherlands and Portugal)

 

[Rhye]

the trigger is always the same....revolution, or city gaines/lost/founded

Where can I download the latest Version? And where are the german language files?

 

[Úmarth]

Download latest version here

RFC is fully translated without the need for additional files.

Thanks, I'm very pleased.

well... lets try to make sense of this.
quicksaves sound good. it should be from the spawn turn forward. the beginning 4 civs are pointless. it depends upon the player.
i think of it like this...

I'm bumping the old thread for late-game saves. Maybe we can get some more contributions.

Could somebody explain stability to me more in depth? I'm currently at shaky as Japan (Free religion, bureaucracy, commonwealth, representation, serfdom, and free market)

I plan on switching to universal sufferage soon. I also have a colony in California which i think may be causing problems. I wasn't too worried because I've been stable most of the game but China just collapsed into civil war and now I'm quite worried.

Granted, I only need 15 years for a HUV I think so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Check this link:

Anarchy of any sort is bad for you, in the same way that a Golden Age is good for you. If you have been through lots of anarchy, you will have lost stability each time.

Having unstable neighbours hurts your stability, so China going to civil war was probably influencing your level of stability. This may improve for you now that China has gone.

On the F2 screen, which areas are you less than 3 stars in to cause your overall Unstable rating?

Is there a map of each civs "historical maximum expansion" in terms of stability?

Sadly no, and Rhye has previously said that it won't be released either. The only one I ever found in these forums was this one for the Mongolian civ:

Bright green is good, dark green is kinda bad, light yellow is bad and White is very bad.

The message attached to this map was:

"Don't ask for other ones or why they're colored like this. I just observe, then extrapolate."

Thanks. That is pretty random, with the dark green scattered all over the globe. Makes it hard to plan your empire, I guess it would make some civs overpowered if you could be too accurate. It gives a bonus to knowing a little about history and geography, which is no bad thing

[EDIT] I noticed, the dark green is the patch over Korae, not the brown all over the map.

Eh? The dark green area is just around Korea though? There are red/burgundy areas scattered all around the globe, but these are the impassable tiles (mountains).

EDIT: Right, I saw your edit just now.

Not really enough information, but the first thing I would try is just double clicking the save within windows (rather than loading civ and them loading the save). Otherwise post the save and your version of civ here.

 

[starwars22097]

okay it would restart and it would show the backround screen bot nothing else and it wouldnt load after it got to that part

I have a question. Where do you need to found a city to find Naples (in reference to Pompeii), why don't the barbarians found Dubh Linn, and Why is it that in the Vanilla game, we have barabrians replacing Maya, but not replacing Native America?
