Sibhialtacht v2.01 - The Irish Mod

[Mark132]

Greetings!
Thank you for outstanding Irish mod! But in the ver. 2.01 I see a bug. There is something wrong with icons. When I discover Feudalism, I see an icon of Flight. There is only one example. Generally icons are mismatched - maybe something wrong witch "Pedia Icons" file?Previous version of "sibialtacht" with Civ3
1.16f worked perfectly. Now I have Civ3 1.17f and your mod in 2.01 - and I have problems too Can you fix it? Thank you from advance.

Currently this can't be fixed. The icon number pulled for the tech completion splash window is not editable. Things gets scrambled like you have described whenever a technology is added or removed. Hopefully this problem will be fixed in the next patch from Firaxis.

so an irish mod with the IRA glorified? why not have gas chambers and things as the german special unit they could be really beneficial too. I hope you are just an ignorant American who thinks he's Irish not someone who actually knows how evil the IRA actually are. THey've killed comparable numbers of innocents to Osama Bin Laden yet fools still glorify them. I dont object to having an Irish civ but to glorify the IRA is totally wrong and an insult to those who have died fighting these terrorists.

i agree with lozz, the ira is a very noticable member of the irish community. but to give them a UU is glorifing them.

american UU - Klansman

german - new improvement concentration camp, UU - skinhead

(arab nation) - terrorist (this is a generization and i do not believe all arab nations harbor terrorism, nor do i think all members of these nations are terrorist)


every civ has its high and low points. i do not believe we need to glorify the lows, or make them have any significance over the men and women who make our countries great

I disagree (strongly) about the whole IRA Volunteer thing.

But I tried the latest version, It needs a lot of work. Doesnt seem to be going anywhere. im going back to playing the british isles mod one

 

[Nobby]

Actualy lozz666 i think you misunderstand the ira unit in this mod. the unit in this mod i believe is based on the origional ira(not the terrorists) that was an army that faught around 1916 - 1920 to gain independence from britian.Thats why in the earlier post when the describing the unit it has "war of independence" typed after it,these soldiers were volunteers and not terrorists. The ira you and a couple of other seem to referring to is the later ira formed and most active in the 1960s give or take a decade who faught for seperation in northern ireland and who are terrorists hence took the name of a former independence great army from the past as many terrorist groups do. Not that ive played this mod or anything but i hope that clears up your concerns as i too would be concerned if terrorists were glorified in any mod...

*pokes nobby* you contradicting someone on my countries history?

First of all, the IRA, was and IS, a Terrorist organisation. things may have changed but it was formed from the off to combat the British police and army, and the UVF, which was basically the same only in northern ireland (Note: larne Gun running)

the UVF too, were and still are terrorists. People change, but the 1960's IRA is the same IRA that was formed around 1920. somewhere from 19-21, the IRA had no part in the Easter Rising of 1916 I do belive. ive seen the bulletholes on the GPO, most impressive.

If your going to base a unit on anything on Irish history, it should be something Celtic for the Celts of ireland, not a unit from one of the most contraversial recent nation histories on earth.

Hope that helps nobby.

Not that i want to argue with you or anything lithium but i would disagree with a couple of those points. Firstly you say the 1919 ira is the same that operated in the 1960's
The origional ira(formaly irb(your 1916 connection)) was formed to fight the activities of the black and tans and faught in regiments ie kilmeacheal ambush. The treaty with britian was signed in 1921 which granted amnesty to the ira memebers that accepted it and accepted them as freedom fighters not terrorists (as the british government had painted them ).
Now what you seem to be saying is that collins who was leader of the ira and was main negotiater when the treaty was signed with britian and than became head of state was a terrorist?
Your refering to the minority who continued to fight in northern ireland which continued on using the name ira to present day who arent associated with the origional memebers who got the treaty which i think the person who made this mod was trying to represent?

By the way i also think a celtic unit would be more appropiate for a mod

 

[LiTHiuM]

collins WAS a terrorist. Wasnt he assassinated anyways?

 

[joycem10]

Collins was assasinated by Republicans who were against the free state treaty that Collins negotaite with the british for De Valera. the treaty partitioned ireland and did not create an irish republic, only the irish free state which would still be affiliated with the british crown.

On a side note, are there people who cruise the modpack boards just looking for things that offend them. If you dont like his mod dont dowload it. Every freaking thread on modpacks that I have read today contains at least a couple of posts of people complaining about being offended. relax.

<crams all the info into head>

better than my history class

 

[Gromit]

The 1919 IRA was the Army of Freedom Fighters that got Independence from Britain. Collins was one of them The 1960's IRA was the 'Provisional' IRA, hence the term 'provos'. This was a terrorist organisation and was formed because the 'Old' IRA was exactly that, 'Old' in its thinking.

For the cauldron, what about replacing it with battlefield medicine?

 

[Tathlum]

Jaysus,
Did you use the cauldron to ressurect this thread? Look at the dates! I doubt you'll get a reply to a two year old thread...

 

[Rhye]

I didn't notice this thread when it was done the.
I love Ireland and this mod is well done. Very useful for a scenario or a Europe modification.

BTW, what does Sibhialtacht mean?

 

[Tathlum]

It means civilisation.
And since this thread is allready resurectected can I point out that the Stone of Scone is originally the Lia Fail so is Irish anyway, without the connection from the fact that the Scots were Irish.

 

[civ4us2006]

Can't play. Can not load the Book of Kells.

 

[Tathlum]

Sorry dude, this mod was for vanilla civ so you probably wont get it to work, and if you did its very outdated, static leaderhead etc...
The creater hasnt posted in about 4 and a half years.

I dont think it will be fixed. The last post before yours was over 2 years ago. It basically a dead mod and a dead thread.
