PS: Is it monday in america yet?? i NEED that next release... *insert fanatical face here*

In australia, you are the first to experience monday... and I'm just about the last, being in the western US. That being said,I still have a bit more to do, (Tilea mostly) 'bout 6-8 more hours (cuz of classes) and you shall have thine release!

Ooh, cool resources...Siam especally...hmmm it might be good (later, after more main races are done) to full out the south east part of the map.

For TXT_XMLing, I was just thinking basics, units and techs and etc, names, just in english (when we get translation started, the translators con do it in their own language). I'll explain further when I get this done and get you guys the mod. (Since I've redone it, none of the TXT_XML's are done...sry no time...)

Done yet? Done yet? Done yet? Done yet?

read instructions on the first page how to fix for 1.61

I'm uploading the fix to 3d downloads right now, I'll post when it's ready

 

[Kelric]

Downloading now. I'll put some serious play time in tonight and tomorrow for sure.

Edit - Well, I got my first ever crash to desk top with Civ 4. The game was generating as it did it.

Anyways, I'll try again. I'll also volunteer to fix up some of the txt keys if you'd like.

Edit - My second crash ever.

I think I'll do some txt_key work right now if you don't mind.

 

[J_Period]

hmm, weird I'll look into it tommorow I wasn't getting any CTD's and theres really no reason to be, since all I changed was XML...

I don't even know what that error is...

WOOT!! DLing now. i shall return with info shortly.

P.S. i do some TXT_XML work for ya. ill just go through the game and search and destroy or something...maybe ill have a nana-nap first tho...

P.P.S. glad ya liked the sources

 

[seZereth]

nice J, good to see you released a new version for the testers. I hope that we will have some more flavour stuff for the public release (like buttons and texts ) Rabbit made some ethnically correct units, which will work nice with the FB mod when there are more of them.
I am talking to Porges right now and he seems to be interested in helping me out with the Regiments mod, so we can expect some more formations and such.

 

[redstar05]

please can you pm me the link because i really want to try it out. Thanks.

 

[Psychic_Llamas]

Grrrrrrr! Im getting a CTD every time i try to play a game. it occures at exactly the same time every time without fail! jusy before the "PLAY" button appears in the "Dawn of Man" movie.

I took a look at some of the stuff youve done, and cant for the life of me see whats different, other than there being less civs to choose from and TXT things every where.

whew, theres a lot of work needed in those. Do you mind if i flaf with the civs to 'finish' them?

 

[Duke van Frost]

I also got a CTD, played as Nippon, was about to research my second tech and then - whoom, CTD.

The TXT_Key things really need to be done also, but it seems there are a lot of people who want to give a helping hand

I´ll have a look tommorrow at the Art_defines files and see if it´s as easy to put in some buttons (especially for resources and religion) as you wanted it to be.

So maybe, with all our work together we´ll have an update in just a few days

Oh some bugs i could see: one is able to research metalcasting and steel right from the start, sorry that´s all I remember.

What are you talking about? Apparently I've made this avesome crash to desktop!

I basically redid the tech tree from scratch- though of the techs are the same, but most are different or serving different functions. Alsom there is a complete armylist- before all of the militia troops were missing as well as the boltthrower and some others. Plus a lot of the new graphics have been implemented.

Sorry about the TXT_KEY's this is a beta test, and I don't have enough time to do them by myself.


I'm starting to investigate the crashes now. Now that I'm playing it a little more, I've been getting them too. .

 

[Kelric]

I got my first right before the Play button appeared and the second was right after I advanced past my second turn.

Just so we aren't all doing the same txt_key stuff, I'll do the tech tree for now if nobody has already started on that.

 

[J_Period]

I found out the cause of one of the CTD's. It seems for some reason being the Empire does it. (The Brettonians must have someone working at Fireaxis ) I'll try and figure out the tech-related one now.

After that I'll try and fix them and upload a working version
