Technically you didn't ask a question, you made a statement, first of all have you tried removing the iroquis to see if that fixes it?

Also calling for help to fix something isn't really a quick modding question.. It requires follow up questions and lots of info, you would probably be better off opening a thread for your answers

Yes, Nazism is indeed racist.

Indeed, all I needed to do was whine about my problems and someone showed me the way.

Thank you Captain Obvious!

How do I edit ocean tiles to have a 1/2 movement cost on the GEM map?

 

[Zlatko]

I search for good mod, which is more look on BTS expansion (Advanced Civic, Better BTS AI, SDK promotions, etc) merged in one mod. Mod do not changes the concept, but that complements some of the things which FIRAXIS/2K GAMES are not made.

Please give me some good mod which you know. Thanks

Legends of Revolution.

This should be in the terrain.xml file but iMovement takes integers.

 

[Lib.Spi't]

and I don't think it can accept 0.5

Although perhaps you could make a route improvement like roads (Like a sea lane) and 'paint it' on all the sea tiles on the map then set this route to halve the movement cost.

xml/misc/CIV4RouteInfos

Spoiler :

<RouteInfo>
			<Type>ROUTE_ROAD</Type>
			<Description>TXT_KEY_ROUTE_ROAD</Description>
			<iValue>1</iValue>
			<iAdvancedStartCost>12</iAdvancedStartCost>
			<iAdvancedStartCostIncrease>0</iAdvancedStartCostIncrease>
			[COLOR="Red"]<iMovement>30</iMovement>
			<iFlatMovement>30</iFlatMovement>[/COLOR]
			<BonusType>NONE</BonusType>
			<PrereqOrBonuses/>
			<Yields>
				<iYield>-1</iYield>
				<iYield>0</iYield>
				<iYield>0</iYield>
			</Yields>

					<iMovementChange>-10</iMovementChange>
				</TechMovementChange>
			</TechMovementChanges>
			<Button>Art/Interface/Buttons/Builds/BuildRoad.dds</Button>
		</RouteInfo>

I think it works as a percentage of 100, so 30 is 1/3 movement and railroads is 20 1/5

I am not sure how to tell a map script to put improvements onto a terrain type though...

 

[Zlatko]

Can someone suggest me a good mod?

@Imp. Knoedel: Legends of Revolution looks good.

 

[platyping]

Just give the unit half a movement point back with python every ocean tile moved

How to I edit soundtracks by era? It's nice and conveniently filed by era in base Civ IV, but when I go and look in Warlords and BTS it's all placed side-by-side. I don't remember hearing FantasyConquests in the Modern era.

 

[God-Emperor]

The music for each era is listed in the CIV4EraInfos.xml file.

Not much of a modding question, but is there a mod based on diversity? As in, unique abilities for each civ, differences between religions and stuff like that. Kinda like FFH2 does, but based on vanilla cIV.

 

[Lib.Spi't]

Not that I am aware of, except for the expanded content of mega mods like rom:and with extra diversity, but nothing that is total diversity..

 

[Akbarthegreat]

That is a pity. The diversity was the main reason I loved FFH2. No civilization, no religion was the same.

 

[Lib.Spi't]

The fact is, diversity is more about imagination and the ability to balance more than technical ability in modding, practically everything can be Copy/paste tweaked to taste through xml, which is just time and word processing, and with all of the base mods and mod comps out there, you can do a lot with very little skill (I am a good example here! ) So why not study a few xml tutorials here, pick a base mod that you like for features, then get diversifying!
