The Playground Mod

[Quaetam]

You should include the Parents and the smart kids as well

 

[Bluemofia]

Parents don't show up to the Playground often, and the smart kids are the ones who are inventing/researching the technology for each group.

Please help a noob to mods. I believe I installed it properly (finally) in that it runs, but I have terribly long delays between turns (when the box says, "please wait") it is game killing. Unmodded Civ III complete and Rhyes' mod runs fine without delays.

Thanks for the help!

 

[Bluemofia]

Hmm, but it does work, right?

What's the map size and number of civs in the game?

 

[splunge the 2nd]

I don't know the map size- I think it was just random. I never got beyond the third or fourth turn and never encountered any other civs, I assume it was some standard number for the mod.

The mod seemed to function- I got asked if I wanted to develop the technology of lunch boxes, in the set up I could read about the choice of civs to play.

I understand the read-me is in the civilpedia-anyone know how it's listed?

 

[Bluemofia]

Strange. There shouldn't be something wrong if it's like that... I really can't help you with that, because I don't know what's wrong.

Ha, you won't find anything that helps your computer problem there. It's just simply for people wondering WTH ninjas, zombies, and Giant Death Robots are doing on some kid's playground. (It's listed under THE PLAYGROUND MOD: FAQs)

Thanks Bluemofia!

Well, no ones made children advisors. If someone did, we'd add them to version 2.0.

If you want more people for version 2 I'd join as this seems a good mod.

I've recently installed the mod, and so far it works fine - except the IBT is REEEALY Slow. Any reasons for this?

 

[Bluemofia]

1. Is this the map or the mod?
2. If it is the mod, what world size?

Otherwise, no other explanations.

OMG, someone posted in this thread again!!!!!

 

[oneperson]

I'm playing the mod, it comes with the map by default, (By the way, is it possible to play the Mod, but on a different map?), and there's no way to change to map size or the number of enemies.

 

[Virote_Considon]

Are you sure? I have three files- "Playground" (which I'm guessing you are playing- it has just the map), "Playground (With Cities)" (which is the same map, but also everyone cities, instead of just the Teachers), and "Playground Mod", which should let you play it with any "random" map you like

 

[oneperson]

Ah, I'm playing without the patch... But only because when I installed the patch, it complained that there were some files missing... I'll try installing the patch again.

Nope, same thing as last time:
Missing entry in "Scenarios\The Omega Productions\Text\PediaIcons.txt"
ICON_BLDG_GOSSIP

 

[Bluemofia]

Ok...

DL this:

This should fix it. (put it in the text folder of the Playground Mod main files folder. Overwrite the original)

 

[oneperson]

Sorry, but it still doesn't work .

 

[The Omega]

Huh....

You sure you're downloading it correctlylike?

 

[Bluemofia]

Sorry, but it still doesn't work .

Ok, do you have a screenshot of the event?

 

[Macha]

A few problems. I finally installed it on my laptop, (I had played it on my desktop comp before I uninstalled civ3 to make room for Supreme Commander (which then didn't work)) where I have civ3, I was playing it but noticed the victory and espionage scrrens are seriously messed up, instead of immediately, carefully and safely they are switched to:

carefully becomes Unmet
safely becomes Spy
and immediately becomes carefully.

The victory screen has everything gone everywhere and I can't figure it out.

 

[Bluemofia]

That would be a faulty txt file.

Put this in the text folder, and overwrite the previous one.
