[We the People] Mod overview

When loading I get an XML error

 

[2000AD]

"- #723 Map sizes have changed to avoid black map when zooming out (random maps only, doesn't affect existing savegames)"

Coming back for my roughly biennal dip back into Colonization and you have no idea how happy I am that this has been fixed, was so annoying when planning stuff.

Hello, after a long pause (too much played 4.1), i want to test 4.2 but i have installation problem.
When loading de mod, i have the message:

if i choose Yes, then i reload the game and i have the message again
if i choose No, then many error message pops.

I reload with 4.1 and it works.
Of course:
the mod files are in C:\Program Files (x86)\2K Games\Firaxis Games\Sid Meier's Civilization IV Colonization\Mods\WeThePeople-4.2
and i manually copy the two dll in the colonisation.exe rep

Windows 11

Any idea ?

Make sure the folder WeThePeople-4.2 is not write protected. It's possible that you need to run as admin for this to work correctly. The reason it pops up again is because the file didn't get created as intended.

It's worth adding that technically you can ignore it, but in that case you will have 3 map scripts for random maps. Only FaireWeatherTweakEx works. The other two were supposed to be hidden and the failure results in that message being repeated.

Thanks Nightinggale, happy to see you always here.

Make sure the folder WeThePeople-4.2 is not write protected. It's possible that you need to run as admin for this to work correctly. The reason it pops up again is because the file didn't get created as intended.

I compare the rep properties:

i also try to change Security parameters for the current user (i authorise everthing) but it dont works.

So i test my
C:\Program Files (x86)\2K Games\Firaxis Games\Sid Meier's Civilization IV Colonization\Mods\WeThePeople-4.1
and it works perfectly. I must wait 5 min that's he loads but its another problem.

From WTP4.1's stat menu, i reloard a mode with 4.2 and i directly thoses seven messages (the same if i select No in my previous post):

And why 4.1 and the new 4.2 don't ??

And why 4.1 and the new 4.2 don't ??

Because I messed up (apparently). You need to replace a python file to fix this error. The path should be in the zip, but if not, it's Assets\Python\EntryPoints\CvAppInterface.py

This will be fixed in the next release.
