[WARLORDS] Amra's Modpack v2

Conqueror Worm · Mar 26, 2007

I don't know why everyone else can download the optional patches - map and no sulpher or rubber units - but me. And I can download the mod and other recommended downloads.

Anyway, this is the http I get:

http://forums.civfanatics.com/uploads/86979/Amra_v208_Walords_PublicMaps.7z

But instead of a download link, I get a huge page that looks like this, only it's much longer.

Does anyone have any idea about what the problem may be?

Instead of left-clicking on the links, have you tried right-clicking on them and then choosing "save link as" or saving the link to your computer?

If that doesn't work, then PM me an email address (don't post your email here) and I'd be happy to email those two files to you directly tonight (I can't right now).

Another simple question for me.....

I am getting VERY long load times from saved games. 3 minutes or so is pretty common. I have a good gaming system. Not sure why the long delay.

Is this standard?

rebakan · Mar 27, 2007

Hello, it's me again.Maybe somebody else alreay asked this, if it is the wrong place to ask, I'm sorry, but I am a newbie so my question is:
What can I do to other civs declare war on me?I don't want to begin one by myself.(In Warlords)Thanks.

Sorry to post a question in the wrong forum.I've found the right one and posted my question there.Thanks, rebakan

Conqueror Worm · Mar 27, 2007

Thanks for your prompt reply Amra. Right clicking on the links worked. Am now very much looking forward to playing the mod. Thanks again for the info, and of course, all the other great work!

I haven't run into that yet but I don't play above a standard map. What map size & how many civs are you playing? Is it late in the game?

And this isn't a major problem, but while I was playing as poland, I got a pirate guy instead of a great general.

This happend to me too, playing as the Aesir and The Magyars...

Are you still trying to get my modpack to work or are these problems with Civ4 in general?

If they are problems with Civ4 or Warlords, you should make a post in the "Civ4 - Technical Support" forum if you haven't already.

rebakan · Mar 29, 2007

Hi, Yes, I'm still trying, but you are right, I'll do it, I asked because I'm new with this kind of forum stuff.Civ4 & Warlords, and the maps you made they all work OK, no problem.Thanks anyway.

Where are the leaderheads? Where is the Art folder?

I haven't loaded up Amra's mod, but I assume they are in the FPK file(s). I would have checked it out by now if it wasn't for the ViSa Expansion Pack I am working on to be released tomorrow

I've been able to play further and further into this and, unfortunately, and as time goes by I've started to get more and more frequent crashes to desktop due to memory faults.

I can't get it to do it consistently but these have only been occuring when I went to save a game or load a game. What I mean by not consistently, is I'll get a memory fault crash trying to load a certain save date, but then I'll go right back in and it'll load up. I'd say I crash about 30% of the time I try to save or load and it happens less frequently on a quick save/load. I also echo an above poster who mentioned that it often takes a long time to load a game; certainly more than a straight Warlords game.

I'm playing on a large, fractal map and am at 1600AD. It probably started doing it around 1200AD and they have definitely been getting more and more frequent so I have to wonder if it will completely die soon. Obviously if/when I get a save where it does it consistently I would attach it.

I play with a 1.5 GB of RAM, but I'll probably try to lower the graphics quality soon. Certain actions seem to hang it up more like declaring a war or zooming in on a battle or wonder creation. So I wonder if there's a memory leak or something.

One silly minor thing also (like one of the above posters alluded to) is I'm playing as Roosevelt and my last 2 great generals have been Odin and a Pirate Captain. That was actually kind of cool though.

The MAF has been a major problem for ViSa for a long time. Thankfully Nev has made a work-around that we are testing for him, once he is happy with his code then he will release it for other modders.

Have you or other users found that it helps to lower your graphics quality options...and animations, etc??

Sure, that is one of the things we list for players to change to help reduce the MAF. You can find the info in the ViSa thread here or our Dev Forum.

Thanks, TAfirehawk. That will be a big help.

Check out the FAQ, question #15. TAfirehawk was correct about the art files being in the *.fpk file. You'll need Pakbuild to extract them.

Here is a forum thread on it with a link.

hey amra, hows that airstrike problem coming along? While waiting I thought the air forces were were missing naval attack specialists, so I tried making a dive bomber. Check my sig.

Nice air unit! :goodjob:

I haven't heard back from Impaler this week so I will follow up to see if he has had any time to look into it. I've got a few other things to fix in the next patch but I am waiting for a CCCP update before I upload another patch. Sorry for the delay.

In the meantime, I've started up another project and hope to post something later tonight on that. It's nothing really groundbreaking but some people have asked for it. That's all I'm saying.
