Varietas Delectat for Rhye's and Fall

[Panopticon]

I am experiencing errors. First, there is an syntax error in VD_Civ4CivilizationInfos.xml. There is a faulty FreeTechs tag on line 2409; the slash is in the wrong place. Second, this error happens:

Spoiler :

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "CvWBInterface", line 18, in writeDesc

  File "CvWBDesc", line 1533, in write

  File "CvWBDesc", line 470, in write

RuntimeError: unidentifiable C++ exception
ERR: Python function writeDesc failed, module CvWBInterface

This relates to the following line in the vanilla BTS Python code:

			f.write("\tArtStyle=%s\n" %(gc.getArtStyleTypes(gc.getPlayer(idx).getArtStyleType())))

This is involved with WorldBuilder things; I don't know if it's critical to the game as usually played.

Sorry, I was not able to playtest the thing right now. Fix is in the CivilizationInfos attachment, put it to \Assets\Modules\Varietas Delectat\XML\UnitArtStyles&CivInfos. OK to overwrite.

Does the Python exception crush the game?

EDIT: My apologies, one of the attachments was not necessary, it was already included.

Does it work now?

 

[Panopticon]

The Python exception seems to only affect WorldBuilder; I'm able to play the game fine without fixing it.

As I said before, excellent work.

Do all the city styles work?

 

[Lone Wolf]

In the post # 222 attached a new version of the bugfix that sets the Keshik as the proper UU of the Knight, not of the HA.

 

[-Perceval-]

It works fine for me!

 

[Panopticon]

Do all the city styles work?

I've seen the styles from the new Cultural Citystyles patch, and lots others, so I assume so.

 

[Lone Wolf]

Can anyone post some picturesque screenshots of RFC VD in action here? I can't load Civ now, and I'd like to update the screenshots in the OP, as well as just see the results of my XML work.

 

[krieger546]

How about those?

 

[Lone Wolf]

Thanks! I also didn't expect for the Leaning Tower graphic to work, but it apparently works. Nice Greek and Ethiopian empires, BTW.

I noticed the farms look like the crops are made out of paper. Is this a bug or a feature?

 

[Lone Wolf]

Apparently, a feature. I don't see them as that paperlike, however. If you are referring to them being flat, the original wheat graphics suffer from that problem also. I guess the new, more detailed texture can bring more visual attention to the crops model being two-dimensional.

 

[Panopticon]

It's just a retexture, I think, not a totally new model.

 

[Lone Wolf]

It's just a retexture, I think, not a totally new model.

That's what I am saying.

 

[Panopticon]

That's what I am saying.

Yes it is.

 

[The Turk]

This mod looks great, I was just wondering if its compatible with the latest version of RFC (which is 1.186)

 

[-Perceval-]

Of course it is compatible!

 

[Zagoroth]

Quick question. If I just wanted to integrate the ethnic cities into the mod, what would I do? My game gets really bogged down if I use the entire mod.

Is this what was in mind while making this, or did I install the Citystyles module incorrectly? Because the Citystyles in the Varietas Delectat mod don't look like this. :/

EDIT: Nevermind, I finally got the buildings to work via the directions on the first post, although the last time I tried all the buildings were red spheres.

I don't know if this has been addressed but why doesn't Babylon have a unique unit Art Style? The Babylonian units look like vanilla BTS mid-east units.
Thought I don't remember if VD had a Babylonian Art Style?
