Yet Another Huge Earth Map

[Gedemon]

Gotcha!

Well, for Gedemon, I've attached my savegame to this post. I only have this mod (YAHEM) installed.

So far it has crashed the first time I start a game, while it's loading, in the middle of the narrator speaking, trying to access the civilopedia and between turns.

thank you

played 30 turns without crash so far. and no problem with the civilopedia either.

can you play on vanilla huge maps without problems (continent or terra for example ?)

 

[jonmar]

The first game I played I played on vanilla earth. I did a 120something turns without a single crash and accessed the civilopedia a lot.

Thanks for checking it out. I don't think the problem is with your mod, maybe my install of the game is botched!

 

[Gedemon]

don't know if it may be connected, but about the civilopedia issue, which langage do you use for your system (windows) and ingame ?

 

[jonmar]

English for both.

Ok I reinstalled the game and I have a question. Should I put all of the files into the MODS folder, or should I put the 3 civ5map files into the maps folder? I previously just put them all in the MODS folder.

 

[Gedemon]

in the mod folder, but that should not make much difference.

(you could use the map with YAHEM desactivated if you put theim in the map folder. the new cities state won't be loaded and remplaced by a random one then)

You know what could be cool if you added the Vikings, Zulu, Inca, Spanish, Carthegean etc. as civ to fill the empty spaces and give a more divers experiance and gameplay.

@ Gedemon: I've tried all three maps, with different civs: Persians, Germans, Romans.

I've been having problems with this mod. When I go to select the map from the options in the mod section of the game, the map for this mod is red and says invalid map. This has been happening for several TSL maps. I've checked to load the mod but still doesn't work.

edit: your mod works now but others that have TSL(well most) dont work. So nevermind

Hello everybody,

I have got a problem with this mod: After finishing round 333, the game turn ends with "Please wait" ... I coul scroll over the map, go into the city menu and so on, but the turn didn't finish. I waited nearly 2 hours but still the same. I startet the game several times new, restartet my pc but no luck.

I am using this modifikations:
Balance - Civilizations
End Turn - CivIV Style
Improves Demographics
Smarter TechTree Pipes
TSL Huge Map Fix
True Start Location Earth Maps
Unofficial Patch
Unoffical Patch II
Y.A.H.E.M.

My System
Windows 7 Ultimate x64
Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E8400 @ 3.00GHz
4GB RAM
nVidia GeForce 7950GT




I hope, you could help me and give me some tips. The attachement is my save game in round 328.

Thanks for your help!

Nachtfalke - I've had the game crash a few times, using various different mods, the same way you did, when it just hangs on "please wait".... I'm betting your graphics card was about to the bed. Playing on a huge map with that card is probably asking too much. I've got the nvidia 9500gt, and can barely play huge maps, sometimes I even have to go into strategic view in the late game to even continue playing, or it'll crash, almost always when the camera is flying around to view all the AI activities.

Any particular reason why the one hex that would separate the Black Sea, from the Aegean Sea wasn't included? It'd also normally be where Istanbul would be located for the Ottomans.

Map is great other wise.

I've tried your save with YAHEM only, and I've the same issue. Strangely revealing the whole map with the tuner before ending turn 333 has allowed me to reach the turn 334, but that's not a solution.

don't know what's causing this... if it's a civ5 bug or something with huge map, but I'm positive that's it's not a graphic card problem here.

well, that's a point on which I had some hesitation. Moving the Ottoman east is logical from the gameplay and historically perspectives, but removing the land itself is indeed debatable, coast to coast the detroit is more a big river than a sea... Finally I've left it this way for gameplay reasons, to keep a natural separation beetween civs here, but anyway, feel free to add that land in WB

Hmm, I tried several things to fix or bypass this problem, but no luck.

I reinstalled the game, I tried the latest nVidia beta drivers (260.89) and I tried to finish the round with strategic map and without, tried to play the game with ultra low graphic details and I tried several "tips" how to modify the .ini files. all without any luck.

Seems that I have to wait for the next official patch...

Thanks for your help and tips. "Good" to see, that you have the same problems with the save game

I started the all civ's map as Egypt and wound up starting off in Somolia. No big deal just spent a few turns and moved to the nile but them discovered the Indians in Isreal? No crashes though so far. Am I doing something wrong? I thought this had accurate starting locations.

You should need to klick "Load Scenario" to have true start locations.

PS: After installing the "Unoffical Patch III", I was able to play 20 more turns. Now the game crashs to desktop...everyday an new bug

Will there be a chance in the future to add Mongolia? Its free, and automaticlly DL's to everyone. Bayblon would also be nice, as well.

Also, only a barbarian Brute in Spain? I see you modded in Carthage as a CS, can't you do the same for Madrid?
