Remove Era's?

[SophieKitty]

So I been watching lots of pirate movies lately and thought...
What if it was possible to change this game, to be fully about pirates?
OR
That i start building from 0, go through the Era's and end up in the Rennaisance Era, which would be the End-Game.

Is it possible to remove the further Era's?
I tried removing stuff from the Era text files, but it only made my game crash, so I ask:
Can someone please do this? It would be awesome if you did!

(also, sorry for my grammar etc, it's my 3rd language ._.)

I think it's possible but likely you'd need to change every reference to Eras in other files. At a minimum I think that would be Civics and Technologies. You'd have to map them to a different era or delete them too. Do a search for ERA_ANCIENT and the rest of the era names and make sure they dont show up in any resource that loads.

only in the /gameplay folder? or in ALL of them?
well okay, i can see things going wrong because of the "configuration" folder too, ill try that one too then

---edit---
i found a few lines about it in gameplay/data/buildings.xml
im assuming ill have to remove those too then?

---rage---
i got through the loading screen and it directly crashed.... i start to doubt its possible to do all that by just changing the files :/

I tried tweaking the immersive era mods he said there's a way to to make his mod an era lock mod but not sure how.
