Triple Your Governments MOD - v5 FULLY FUNCTIONAL

[Starwind]

I don't think you've sent any references, or maybe they slipped me by somehow, I've seen all the messages posted here. So I need to rename files? What files do I need to rename? Sorry, Im new to this modding thing, though I usually havent got any problems to got these things work. This is by far the most interesting mod yet, me being somewhat into politics and history myself.

After I downloaded the file, I loaded everything to where it's all supposed to go but when i tried to play the scenario, i got an error message saying i'm missing ICON_BLDG files in the Pediaicons text file. So I open it up and, to my dismay, all the BLDG files after Pyramids are missing! But thankfully, I had backed up my original files and copied and pasted the missing files back in. When i tried it again, I'm missing the National Healthcare System ICON_BLDG entry. Can you post a PediaIcons file with everything there or send me an email please? I really want to try it out

EDIT: Screw it, i'll just reinstall

Holocaust in the 30s-40s was set up by just one man in history. It wasnt about the government. It was about the ideology of one person.
think about it,

Alright, first of all I'm very sorry for bringing this whole argument up again but I was reading some of the old posts and noticed this (see above) and had to say something about it

fas·cism
1 : often capitalized : a political philosophy, movement, or regime (as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition

The definition of Fascism shows that a Genocide, or Holocaust or Ethnic Cleansing or whatever you may want to call it is a large part of the type of government itself. Along with that, fascism having a dictatorial leader shows that everything about a Fascist government is the ideology of one person.

Again, very sorry to bring it up again and sad that it had to be removed from Comrades MOD. Which is the real reason I'm here, hoping to see a post of the full MOD soon.

We are up to version 6 and it doesn't work the *.txt file included have sections missing from them and instructions to install are all wrong in the forum as the only files included are a bic file and 2 txt files.

I know I'm quoting ancient history here, but I've seen "Corporatism" misused so profusely on this forum that I simply must intervene. Corporatism is not what you think it is! Corporatism is a system by which the government consults with all aspects of society (in practical terms with labour unions, big business and the people via representatives in government) on major decisions. Corporatism exists in Sweden today, and existed previously in Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany.
Its roots are, rather than being similar to capitalism, anathema to capitalism. Corporatism is founded on an organic view of society, whereas capitalism is founded on unbridled individualism.

 

[LordFrostbite]

Over all I like this MoD...God Job.

 

[ComradeRed]

You're thinking of Corporativism. And I find it a bit misleading to simply state that it might apply to both, Sweden is nothing like nazi germany.

I may do some work on this yet, but it may be linked on another site so to guarantee that I don't get censored again. I've also been thinking about adding more technologies and such.

 

[syme]

Firstly corporatism and corporativism are the same thing. Here is an example of an economics paper discussing the feasibility of corporatism (speaking here of a game involving unions and the government).
http://econpapers.hhs.se/paper/wpawuwpma/0301003.htm

Here is an article on corporatism - it does mention the popular parlance (corporatism as being pro-big-business).
http://en2.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corporatism

As to speaking of Nazi Germany and Sweden in the same sentence I don't see how this is offensive. Nazi Germany underwent numerous sane policies that had nothing to do with anti-semitism. For instance murder was illegal in Nazi Germany. This is a sane policy, pursued by both the Nazis and Sweden. Killing Jews is not a sane policy, and Sweden was wise to not pursue it. The fact that the nazis did something is not an implication that it is evil - however fascist Italy and Nazi Germany happen to comprise of two of the most oft-cited examples of corporatism/corporativism.

sorry but i have to express my feelings about the holocaust thing.

i think its right not to include it. its not what u want to play in a game. u could then also include mass rape or genital mutilation of girls as a wonder ah DISGUSTING

and that has nothing to do with ignoring history! man, the guy from sweden who said todays germans would ignore their history?
THAT HURTS MAN

im from germany and i think we might well be the nation that knows BEST about the damn things that has been done by our ancestors. we learn EVERTHING in school several times. we get the movies, the pictures, so much it hurts ok? and thats *exactly* why i couldnt PLAY that!
so dont be so arrogant when u have no idea whats going on ok?

and one guy said he thinks its disrespectful to all the dead. and then some other guys start flaming him because he would ignore history? thats disgusting.

just imagine ur grandpa survived a concentration camp. and tonight ur gonna tell him about the holocaust wonder u "built" in ur computer game? u think thats the right place to reflect about these terrible part of mankinds history?

i can enjoy a movie about war, say like gladiator. but i just could never "enjoy" a movie about the holocaust. and i wouldnt want to play a game were u can "utilize" the holocaust for ur advance.

peace

dave

ah to clarify this: i think we can discuss if its tasteless to include it or not. but please, only because people dont want to play such things, that doesnt mean their ignoring the history! in my case, the opposite is true ok?

 

[Mushpuppy]

Unless I'm missing something, version 6 only includes the .bic file and a couple of .txt files. Where are the wondersplash .pcx files and everything else?

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

By definition, a "Wonder" represents an acheivement of the human race. For instance, the Pyramids represent an Artitectual aceivement, while Newton's University represents a scientific one, JS Bach's Cathedral a religious one, and the Sistine Chapel both an Artitectual and Religious aceivement.

Now unless your somebody like Adolf Hitler, Saddam Hussein, Joseph Stalin or maybe SATAN, you won't consider the Holocaust a aceivement.

Well, that depends. After all Manhatten Project then isn't a good wonder, too.

Also I think there is nothing wrong to include more "important " events or the like as wonders in a mod, rather than only nice things, but still i think its tasteless to include the H.

Also regarding this mod there is no need to discuss this anymore, as its not included anymore. I was just upset because people who didn't feel well about the H were said to be History-Ignorants because of this, and because someone said Germans tried to forget their past

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

Germans are not synomious with Nazis. I get tired of hearing that, so I know what you mean.

And I somewhat agree with you about the wonder thing, but I think a line has to be drawn somewhere, I sure you can agree with that.

 

[yaksack]

I have Civ 3 Gold Edition. Will this mod run on my machine or do I need Conquests?


It is -25 with windchill here in Northern NJ, I need something that will keep me from going crazy in the house this weekend.

 

[wolf55]

Version 5 (the lastest version I think) doesn't work at all. I have the exact same problems as UpSmackJack, where the pediaicon file is missing the ICON_BLDG entires. After copy and pasteing the entries from my backed up Pediaicon.txt file, it tells me I'm missing national healthcare. I really wanna play your mod, so any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

 

[ComradeRed]

I'm working on making a brand new version, after not touching it for over a year, may even add in another era.

 

[ComradeRed]

wow, while researching for this, I found my influence everywhere.... from things that I cannot be sure are my influence (inclusion of the brothel improvement) to things that are definately my influence (halocaust wonder splashes, wonder splashes for some of my wonders that were allowed to stay in)

Now, I know I have to make this new version legendary.

 

[ComradeRed]

Well, reading about the changes in Civ 4, I believe this mod had influence in the following changes:

1) Buildings: Winery, Theater, Broadcast Tower (I can't remember if plantation is in this mod)
2) Wonders: Academy, The Parthenon, and Stonehenge

I'm 99% sure that all of this was included in the mod, if something wasn't, it was only one thing.

So influential mod, yes

Do you have the Holy Grail as a Great Wonder?
