2) Create the following directory and place mod in this directory:
Civilization 4/Beyond the Sword/Mods/Extra Civs*/Assets/Modules
3) Copy and paste a .ini file from any other mod, and place it in:
Civilization 4/Beyond the Sword/Mods/Extra Civs*/
4) Rename .ini file Extra Civs.ini*
5) Open the .ini file and replace the XML code with the following code:

[CONFIG]

6) Start Civilization 4 Beyond the Sword, at main menu select Advanced>Load a Mod
7) Extra Civs* should be an option, select this mod, then select "Go" and the mod should load

* You can actually name this mod whatever you want, but whatever it is, make sure the .ini file has the same name.

Note: You can put more than one mod into the folder, and you only need to do steps 1 & 2 for each additional mod after the first one.

FYI... I will be adding another LH at some point. I have been wrestling over which Doge to use...

 

[kochman]

It may be a while...
I am wrestling with making a still LH for the other Doge, and if someone ever animates, I will upgrade of course. I already picked out the leader (Loredan).

 

[TheLastOne36]

put it in the leaderhead request thread. People will get to making it animated eventually. Same with all the leaders you will need.

I did a few days ago, so I will just patiently wait and hope...
I put in a request for Loredan, Alexius Comnenus of Byzantium, and Camillo Cavour (since I used some other European leader in the civ mod).

Than we will just have to wait for The Capo and Ekmek to start producing again. I got a few request's coming up myself.

 

[kochman]

I hear you.

 

[The Capo]

I'll make a Cavour for you once I get back to making LHs again. It may not be for a while though because I'm making a mod.

 

[TheLastOne36]

I'll make a Cavour for you once I get back to making LHs again. It may not be for a while though because I'm making a mod.

That's fine. I was debating whether to put in Italy, or alternatively Milan, Venice and Napoli(and maybe Papal States, or renamed one as Umbria) in my mod. If you make him i'll split Italy.

The waiting is fine, Diplomacy Modpack is priority.

It would be much appreciated!

You guys are great.

Here are some pics of Cavour:

Spoiler :

Any suggestions for him? He seems interesting, I might make him, since Capo will be busy for a while.

 

[The Capo]

Well in my mod (and first the Europe II module pack) Italy is one civ, and I'll probably wind up using Cavour after I make him to be the fourth leader (Mussolini, Lorenzo d'Medici and Garibaldi are the other three). I am not AGAINST making multiple Italian civs for any reason, I just didn't happen to do that. The Papal States will be a new civ too, but all of the extra modular civs will be created/updated (depending on if I have already made them or not, I have over thirty ready to be upgraded).

 

[The Capo]

I was going to use dutchking's Benjamin Franklin as a base;

Spoiler :

I'll probably add Caesar's hair and Hannibal's beard thing on the bottom. I think that should be fine. Maybe Lincoln's suit, but I might leave it at this. The problem is getting dutchking's Franklin.

I could make them for you (the XML part) to save you the time, so all would be needed will be the leaderheads and any music.

 

[kochman]

I would be happy to assist with any XML coding any of you guys need (for leaderheads other than those I am hoping for too, for that matter).

 

[The Capo]

Don't hold your breath, it will probably be around a month before I'm finished with Cavour. Just so you know.

You think its a good base though right? I think it should look pretty close to him with all of those changes I've suggested.

Don't worry... if I held my breath, I couldn't be drinking right now. So...

As for the base, yeah, its perfect (I mean, I don't know what exactly you guys do). It looks like the main thing would be changing the hair color and subtle features... that B Franklin is practically perfect.
Let me know if and when you need the xml... I already have it (other than the artdefines obviously).

 

[kochman]

looking again at the suit, its perfect too really... just change the color and add some fancy medal or something...

Unfortunately we don't have access to it. DK isn't on much anymore and he never posted it.
