Stopping Tech progress?

[Colonel_Dile]

So I'm utterly new to Civ modding. Could someone direct me as to how (if at all possible) *exactly how* to mod Civ5 so as to halt technological progression?

Specifically, I would like to figure out how to - in fewer words - stop tech (or halt the tech at a specific era)?

I am open to any suggestions but please hold your slings and arrows for an utter, utter newby!

In terms of my knowledge base I can tell you this - I know what XML is.

Go to the hub in-game and look for the "End tech era at XXX Era" where xxx= the era you desire. Then copy those. I recently completed a small mod that ends at the Renaissance era by borrowing one of those and incorporating it.

Hmm. I don't seem to know what any of that means, nor can I find an "in-game HUB". This may be a lost cause.

Go to your mod browser in the game! The one where you search for mods. Put the following into your search criteria (without the quotes) "End at _____ Era" where the blank is whatever era you want your tech research to end at.

Hope that helps...

Thank you. Oh god, thank you.
