zm1285ghaaa's Realism Mod

[zm1285ghaa]

City Improvements:

I added the corruption flag to religous and scientific buildings.


Small Wonders:

I added 2 small wonders that are both unique to Democracy

Supreme Court: Counts as another palace, reduces war wariness

State Capital: same

The Forbidden Palace, Pentagon, Military Academy, and Intelligence Agency now make the city more resistant to propoganda. The Pentagon also acts as another palace.



The file is further down.

**NOTE**

When you download the file, make sure you save it as something other than attachment, which is why it wouldn't work before. Thanks to GIDustin for figuring this out. The file is a couple of posts down.

 

[zm1285ghaa]

Ok. I realized that the mod wouldn't load because I didn't put a cvilopedia entry for the Supreme Court and the State Capital. That is now fixed and you can now download the new file. They both use the same entry as the Forbidden Palace because they all do the same thing. Except the Supreme Court now acts like a temple as well, and it still needs 10 courthouses to build.

 

[zm1285ghaa]

I played v.1.00 and I found that the stats for the acient era units needed a little tweaking. So I just changed some of those to make it a little better.

I cannot open the file. It is a zip right?

 

[zm1285ghaa]

Yeah its a zip file. hmmmmm........you should be able to open it. I'm not sure what's wrong.

 

[zm1285ghaa]

Try downloading it now. It should work.

 

[zm1285ghaa]

If the above download doesn't work than try this.

 

[Yoda Power]

Still not working. Anyone ells have this problem?

 

[zm1285ghaa]

I actually downloaded it myself and it didn't work for me. I thought that all you had to do was to make it a zip. file, and to attach it to the thread. That's how I did it, so unless I'm doing it wrong, then I'm not sure why it's not working...

If anyone has an idea why it isn't working and how to fix it I would love to hear it.

 

[GIDustin]

When you click to download it, and it asks for a name, and the default is "attachment", change the default name to "whetever.zip" it will then save as a zip file, and work.

BTW Could you please explain the mystery behind your name?!?

[zm1285ghaa]

thanks for clearing that up. my name is just a mix of personal stuff, nothing really exciting.

 

[zm1285ghaa]

Ok. The file that I have up is a compressed file that I experimented around with to get this thing to work. If you download one of the above 2 files then follow these instructions as to how to get it to work:

-save it as anything you want
-go into my computer and the folder where you saved it
-right-click on the file and there should be an option to add it as a .zip file.
-after you save it as a .zip file, go into your .zip program (winzip, filzip, etc.) and extract to C:\Program Files\Infogrames Interactive\Civilization III\Scenarios

If you don't feel like doing that, then here is the actual .zip file. All you have to do is extract it to the folder listed above.

 

[zm1285ghaa]

Oh, and any comments/suggestions on my mod would be greatly appreciated .

 

[Yoda Power]

Still not working.

 

[zm1285ghaa]

Then try downloading one of the other 2 files and follow the instructions on how to get it to work.
