Quot Capita: Majesty

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

New version is out! Merry Christmas everyone!



PATCH 3.1.9: Out of Africa

-More bugfixes
-Two New Wonders, Big Ben and Adam Smith's Trading Company
-New Tech: Sanitation
-New Building: Sewer, becomes available with Sanitation. I thought the mid game was lacking a health building
-New Civilizations:

-Zimbabwe: A powerful south african kingdom, Zimbabwe was once the dominant power in that region and was a part of the trade with Zanzibar, linking it to places as far away as India.

-The Swahili: A diverse group, in Majesty the Swahili civilization encompasses Zanzabar and the Maasai, basically the modern day nations of Tanzania and Kenya.

EDIT: These problems are with the previous version. I will test things out with the newly released one.

Yeah, there definitely is a graphics error. It's with the Indonesian spearman.

And the game has crapped out on me again. I was playing along and got a CTD when I opened one of the F-button screens. I don't recall which one. And now I can't even open any of my old saves. This happens before I can finish a game. And it requires a complete reinstall of Civ IV and expansions but will never allow me to open the save. I'm wondering if the save game grows in size to a point where my computer can no longer handle it. Perhaps it's time for a new machine. Or a smaller sized game.

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

Ill fix that bug, theres a number of errors(not game breaking) that i forgot to fix, may reload soon...

With an older game like this I would think if your having problems its the computer, my brother has a similiar problem...

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

Also to get the religions displayed with the civilizations, you need to go to your steam libraury(if using the steam version), then click on Beyond the Sword/Properties/Beta then select "Original Release Unsupported".

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

I've uploaded a new version, it fixes a number of bugs, and changes quite afew things.

It would be great if I could actually download the file. I tried about five times and always download is interrupted. It happens only when downloading from his link, all other downloads work fine.

^ Good days; could you upload it to Mega also?

PD: Seems to be a good mod.

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

i hope you enjoy it Basil. Still working on it.

What is Mega? Not Megaupload? That sites been gone for years.

 

[BasilBerylium]

No, it's another site with good (fast speed, allows to continue with the downloads at another time after closing it like torrent) and bad (limits for non-premium users, etc) aspects.

[BasilBerylium]

Too bad that free accounts only last for 30 days...

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

Yeah that is a problem. Free sites that offer good hosting are the best place for the mod I think.

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

I have a big new release coming, look forward to it. If anyone has any suggestions, ideas, feel free to post them and I can try to fit them in

 

[rtt4a]

Sounds interesting...

Well... there is something really wrong about this mod.
It takes more than 15 minutes to just start (you really have to fix this) and than it pops a windows error.

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

Still working on the next version.

On the load time, there is really nothing I can do about this, as far as I know, due to the modular nature I built it on. I apologize that it takes long to load, as for the windows error, that isn't normal, its not something I ran into when I last used the old version.

Most of Majesty's assets are modular and this rules out using a FPK format to reduce load times, I apologize for the wait but I ask for your patience. If I had known what I do now about modding I would have built the mod differently when I started this five years ago(time flies).

I will try to fpk the non-modular art files and see if that helps.

Update: Packbuilder does not work on my computer, fpk is not an option

I saw some alternatives among the download utilities.

Modular art can be packed just like the others, just needs a little more care.

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

I read a tutorial on how to properly use Packbuild. After some work I've managed to pack much of the art files, I followed some pointers, like not packing leaderhead art.

The mod loads in about 3 and a half minutes now...very good news!
