New to the whole modding thing, trying to make researching the Satellite tech do a map reveal. Some one suggested
Code:
<Gameinfo>
<Technologies>
<Update>
<Where Type="TECH_SATELLITES"/>
<Set MapVisible="true"/>
</Update>
</Technologies>
</Gameinfo>
but that doens't mean anything to me :/
I started by attempting to read that Kael PDF guide but alot of that is also over my head.
I went to the steam and downloaded Civ 5 SDK (whatever that is, and tried to load up mod budy adn had to download some wierd thing to run it which was almost a gig worth of crap... and i'm still no closer to finding out how to figure out which file folder I need to get to, and what needs to be typed in to name the above code accepted.)
Page 7 of the PDF file shows a file destination, but I don't know how to get there from my actual Civ 5 folder- Mod folder is empty, the Moduserdata folder is also empty.
I tired doing searches to leapfrog my way there using searches like "Civilizations" or "Technologies" and search came up empty. no idea where people are getting this file directory location.
Here's what I tried
1) open mod budy
2) Go to File tab
3) Create new Project
4) Click Empty mod
5) Fill out mod name
6) Fill out 2nd window giving name, description
7) Click finish
8) Get a blank blue screen. Nothing on the right or left or up or down where my mod is listed.
