Tomatekh's Historical Religions v.18

My note in the update log was mostly for people who have a second version installed in their mods folder. Normally steam should automatically replace old versions in the contents folder after an update. I've had messages like that popup if I tried to delete/reinstall something that I already had open (usual a stray file I was looking at) but didn't realize. Other times my antivirus program was blocking a downloaded file for some reason. But this is probably not either of those :/

I would try running the steam program itself as an admin, if you haven't already, then while running it verify the integrity of civ VI's files and then resubscribing. If steam continues to not download the mod, manually download and install it from here (stuff placed in the mods folder should overwrite the workshop's content folder).

There are also file unlocker programs that can delete files being blocked by a unknown process. It's been a while since I used one, so I'm not sure which are reputable to recommend.

I'll continue to research the issue to see if I can learn anything else.

 

Missing the awesome Mu'tazilites.

 

Tomatekh updated Tomatekh's Historical Religions with a new update entry:

v 9

- Anito (Phillipine), Ahmadi, Chiminigagua (Muisca), Fât Roog (Serer), Mahoma(Calusa), Mwari Cult (Shona), Pohakantenna (Shoshone)
- 2 Additional Custom Icons
- The mod now has a load order of -1

Remember, the configuration table is located at the top of the “HR_Religions_Master.sql” file.

The update is not compatible with save games using the previous version.

 

What is the best among your proposed religions for an ancient papua civ? Tala-e-Fonua ?

 

The mod includes Malagan "RELIGION_MLAGAN" which is meant to represent various Melanesian cultures and should be appropriate for an ancient Papua civ.

You can add support in an SQL file by doing something like this:

Code:

DELETE FROM FavoredReligions WHERE LeaderType = 'LEADER_XXX';

INSERT OR REPLACE INTO FavoredReligions
           (LeaderType,                                       ReligionType)
SELECT   ('LEADER_XXX'),                             ('RELIGION_MLAGAN')
WHERE EXISTS (SELECT * FROM Religions WHERE ReligionType = 'RELIGION_MLAGAN');

 

Hello Tomatekh, nice work with this mod. As a Jehovah's Witness, I'd like to see my religion represented in this mod, as we a are a widespread and well-known christian denomination. Our logo is the Watchtower, and we should go right beside the Adventists and Mormons under Christianity.

Thanks a lot!

 

Hey, everyone!

Just saw that the update launched.

I'll try to have an update for the mod sometime this weekend. In the meantime, I believe the mod should still function. Indonesia and Khmer will prefer the wrong denomination and my religions may be missing an icon size, but neither of which should break the game.

 

Okay, so it seems that the HR religions are not working properly with the new religion lens. The game is still playable, but the lens is mostly useless while the mod is active. I am looking into fixing this as soon as possible.

@Matheus Costa
I'll try to work it in for this update.

 

Looking forward to an update

GL on updating for this patch

 

Unfortunately, it’s looking like the new Religion Lens is going to be a more complicated issue than I initially thought. I essentially will need to make a Pressure and an Overlay texture file for each religion. Considering I need to figure out how to do this, and then make both for all 140 religion icons in the mod, it might be a while :/

 

Hey its alright, I can wait

 

I suppose i can request a religion (not historical tho) to be added? I want to see one for the Jedi! (They're pretty much a cult lol)

 

There may be more Jedi Knights than Scientologists, but the OP decided not to add modern religious movements and the atom symbol suffices for atheism.

 

I think Zebenji's Additional Religions has Jedism already.

To update on my mod, yes I'm still working on it. No ETA yet. Between my limited modding time these days and the amount of work that's needed to update every religion that's in the mod, it could still be a while. The plan is to definitely have it updated again by the expansion, but hopefully earlier than that.

 

Never noticed that mod (cuz when talking about more religions it's gotta be Tomatekh's) before. Thanks! Instant subscribe to both!

 

Hope you'll enjoy it.

 

Tomatekh updated Tomatekh's Historical Religions with a new update entry:

v 10 Part 1

v.10 Update (Part 1)

So, good news and slightly disappointing news. As many of you know, the Religion Lens issue has plagued this mod since last October. Leugi (the amazing modder that he is) finally solved the issue! However, it was only solved last week. It actually takes some time to implement the fix, as I need to manually do it for every icon in the mod (all 140 of them). Needless to say a week is not nearly enough time to do them all. In the meantime, I also needed to post an update so the mod can load with Rise and Fall as well as a general leader preference update.

So, in order to post a working update as soon as possible, I’ve made the compromise to set the mod to only load in “Light Mode”. Light Mode is normally an option in the mod’s config file where the mod only adds about ~10 new religions to accommodate preferences for all the officially included leaders. The Light Mode religions are now all fully functional (icons, religion lens, historic moments) and up to date.

Essentially, this is part 1 of the update. The mod works again, all the new leaders have preferences, and I have more time to work through the remaining 110 icons. When they are finished, I’ll post part 2 which will re-enable all the religions as well as the config file options. Hopefully, part 2 won’t take too long. In the meantime, I hope everyone understands and can still enjoy the mod.

Thanks!

- The mod now works with both the base game and the Rise and Fall expansion.
- The mod (temporarily) will only load in light mode.
- All light mode religions now function with the religion lens.
- Added “historic moments” art for the light mode religions.
- Amatongo, Tengriism, Wakan Tanka, and Witran Mapu added to the light mode religions.
- Shaka now prefers Amatongo; Genghis Khan now prefers Tengriism, Poundmaker now prefers Wakan Tanka, Lautaro now prefers Witran Mapu.
- The mod now has a new ID #

 

Ooooh, marvellous, I look forward to trying this .

Might I recommend, since you subdivide Protestantism into its various sects, you do the same for Shi'ism? A tripartite division into Zaydi, Twelver and Isma'ili would be cool .

 

Thanks! I'm glad you're enjoying the update.

Yeah, a Shia denomination pack was something I was interested in the past. I simply put all my new religion/denomination plans on hold until I could figure out the religion lens issue. Once I finish updating all the icons, I'll definitely be expanding the mod more with new religions.

So it might still be a while, but it is something I have on my to do list. In the meantime, if you have any suggestions for icons that would help a lot.
