hey everyone, i've been looking around for some help on modding religion... however, i am only finding mods no tutorials. my issue is that i can't find any files to mod! HOW CAN THIS BE??? if you talked to me before you may know that i am terrible at finding files. but i really have no clue where the religion files are!!! and i have been looking FOREVER!
any help would be greatly appreciated!

Some of the files for the religions should be in the vanilla folder, not in the BtS folder.

But the first file, GameInfo\ReligionInfo.xml is in BtS, so where's your problem?

I'm adding the Druid religion to a mod for vanilla CIV4. I got the art from the JARM mod (Thanks!). Everything works except the Holy City and the religion icon on the city name. I can't get the game to acknowledge that the religion was founded in the city, nor can I build the shrine in that city.

In CIV4BuildingInfos I have set the Druid shrine like this:

<HolyCity>RELIGION_DRUIDISM</HolyCity>
<ReligionType>RELIGION_DRUIDISM</ReligionType>

Shouldn't that set the Holy City?

Thanks,

JB

Yes, but for the icons, there are 2 other files to modify.
Assets\res\fonts\GameFont.tga and GameFont_75.tga have to be modified.
These pictures contain 2 pictures (the real art and the alpha channel). Download DXTBmp to see them both.
You have to move all the corporation icons one to the right, and to modify the alpha channel.
Be careful, that files can screw up your interface or bring your mod to crash, if you don't do it right -> always make backups, if somehting works.
