Rise And Rule Revisited (epic mod)

Hi Civinator, the RARR problem is solved. The Atomic Bomb folder was in a subfolder with the same name. Putting the content of that folder "a step" higher was THE solution.

I will continue in the other thread ;-)

 

Great that now RARR is working for you again.

I will answer your question about CCM2 later.

 

Hello there all

So I recently got back into Civ 3, been enjoying it so much I figured I would give some mods a go, and started with this one

Unfortunately I am at a complete loss as to how to actually install the darn thing, so I figured it was worth having a go asking here for some help.

I have the base RARR file downloaded, yet getting no luck extracting into the civ conquests file on steam. Would be grateful for any assistance on this as I really want to try the mod out.

Thanks in advance!

 

BlueChrome, welcome at CFC!

I don´t have the Steam version of Civ 3. In general it can be said to extract the RARR folder in the C3C scenarios folder and to place the RARR biq inside the scenarios folder outside the RARR folder.

 

Thank you! Managed to get the mod working, although I'm running into this particular issue and I'm not sure what is causing it. I screened it to explain it better, but it seems to be the text is out of alignment.

 

You forgot the last steps for the Steam version:
Steam Civ Complete-Patch:

The last update of the Steam version of Civ Complete by Steam/Firaxis added a new line between "PING" and "Host" (line 86) to the labels text that just says "Unknown". Of course this messed up the labeling of buttons for C3C mods/scenarios with own labels texts (as it is the case with RARR). If you have problems with messed up labeling of buttons at the start of RARR and use the Steam version of Civ Complete you can try the following patch:

1. Go to the text folder inside the RARR mod.
2. Rename the textfile labels to labels1 (or something like that).
3. Rename the textfile labels-Steam CivComplete Patch to labels.

 

Ahh, I had done that but with the wrong RARR file from a previous installation attempt, fixed now!

Once again thanks guys, was a little rusty with all this modding stuff.

 

Figured I would update, been playing and so far love the flavour and changes the mod makes, loving it so far!

The only odd thing I noted was that at the start of the game the music is not from the ancient file, but rather the tracks that comes up in the mid-game, I was curious why that was, but aside from that it all plays fine!

 

BlueChrome, thank you very much for your kind words about RARR.

The music is triggered by the search path of the RARR biq. Here you can read more about it:

I posted such a changed RARR biq here: https://forums.civfanatics.com/threads/rise-and-rule-revisited-epic-mod.549166/page-33#post-15320418 - but additionally the pediaIcons file in the text folder must be changed, too. You can find the new pediaIcons file here: https://forums.civfanatics.com/threads/rise-and-rule-revisited-epic-mod.549166/page-34#post-15345686
