/me makes mental notice: don't sleep/work too much during war time.
Toni has submitted his new civ.
Another player is going to change civ b/c of the fin-debate as well. (I'll keep him anonymous)
He's going to change it as well now.
When he's done changing I'll submit the new list.Formerly known as "CyberShy"

You would have enjoyed Planetarion, back in the day... 1 hour turns, worldwide audience, attacks take ~6 hours to land in local area or ~8-10 in further away galaxies. Folks from norway calling folks in Brazil at 3am waking them up asking for help...

Oh code gurus.... please answer my question!
If I don't get a difinitive answer by the time the new civs are released I guess I will start on a new map using these civs.
Fortunately, this time I should be done with it in a few days, since I am pretty much moved into my new home.Last edited by Pinchak; May 19, 2008, 21:56.Comment

CS PLEASE do not submit the list on poly!!!When he's done changing I'll submit the new list.
Just pm or email it to Pinchak.
Because even a full pledged IDIOT will notice the changes and fugure out Beta and I.
Keep the game fair play

This really isn't that difficult and should be self-explanatory for anyone who actually opened up the file in a text editor. But here is an example anyhow.Originally posted by CyberShy
Open the save in a text editor. Then you can change the civ names and leaders that way.
That doesn't fix the starting techs.
Does it fix the traits? Or does it just only change the names of the civs?
isn't it one can fix with 'chiptotle' or something?
The first section:
In here you can set victory conditions, game options, and other options for the game.Code:BeginGame Era=ERA_ANCIENT Speed=GAMESPEED_NORMAL Calendar=CALENDAR_DEFAULT Option=GAMEOPTION_RAGING_BARBARIANS Option=GAMEOPTION_PICK_RELIGION Option=GAMEOPTION_NO_TECH_TRADING Option=GAMEOPTION_NO_TECH_BROKERING Victory=VICTORY_TIME Victory=VICTORY_CONQUEST Victory=VICTORY_DOMINATION Victory=VICTORY_CULTURAL Victory=VICTORY_SPACE_RACE Victory=VICTORY_DIPLOMATIC GameTurn=0 MaxTurns=500 MaxCityElimination=0 NumAdvancedStartPoints=600 TargetScore=0 StartYear=-4000 Description= ModPath= EndGame
The civ section:
Ok, 18 TeamIDs, 18 teams/civs. Obviously this is where you set the team's starting techs.Code:BeginTeam TeamID=0 Tech=TECH_FISHING Tech=TECH_THE_WHEEL ContactWithTeam=0 RevealMap=0 EndTeam BeginTeam TeamID=1 Tech=TECH_THE_WHEEL Tech=TECH_AGRICULTURE Tech=TECH_ARCHERY ContactWithTeam=1 RevealMap=0 EndTeam BeginTeam TeamID=2 Tech=TECH_THE_WHEEL Tech=TECH_MINING Tech=TECH_ARCHERY ContactWithTeam=2 RevealMap=0 EndTeam BeginTeam TeamID=3 Tech=TECH_HUNTING Tech=TECH_MINING Tech=TECH_ARCHERY ContactWithTeam=3 RevealMap=0 EndTeam BeginTeam TeamID=4 Tech=TECH_MYSTICISM Tech=TECH_HUNTING Tech=TECH_ARCHERY ContactWithTeam=4 RevealMap=0 EndTeam BeginTeam TeamID=5 Tech=TECH_THE_WHEEL Tech=TECH_AGRICULTURE Tech=TECH_ARCHERY ContactWithTeam=5 RevealMap=0 EndTeam BeginTeam TeamID=6 Tech=TECH_MYSTICISM Tech=TECH_MINING Tech=TECH_ARCHERY ContactWithTeam=6 RevealMap=0 EndTeam BeginTeam TeamID=7 ContactWithTeam=7 RevealMap=0 EndTeam BeginTeam TeamID=8 ContactWithTeam=8 RevealMap=0 EndTeam BeginTeam TeamID=9 ContactWithTeam=9 RevealMap=0 EndTeam BeginTeam TeamID=10 ContactWithTeam=10 RevealMap=0 EndTeam BeginTeam TeamID=11 ContactWithTeam=11 RevealMap=0 EndTeam BeginTeam TeamID=12 ContactWithTeam=12 RevealMap=0 EndTeam BeginTeam TeamID=13 ContactWithTeam=13 RevealMap=0 EndTeam BeginTeam TeamID=14 ContactWithTeam=14 RevealMap=0 EndTeam BeginTeam TeamID=15 ContactWithTeam=15 RevealMap=0 EndTeam BeginTeam TeamID=16 ContactWithTeam=16 RevealMap=0 EndTeam BeginTeam TeamID=17 ContactWithTeam=17 RevealMap=0 EndTeam
Leader section:
Ok, this defines the leaders & civs for each "team". If you want team 0 to be the Celts, then make sure in the team section you have given team 0 the Celts' starting techs. Then you go to this section and make sure team 0 has the right leader.Code:BeginPlayer Team=0 LeaderType=LEADER_TOKUGAWA LeaderName=diplo_american CivDesc=TXT_KEY_CIV_JAPAN_DESC

Much of this you shouldn't change. For each player this is what you should be changing:
Ok, now as with any bit of coding this stuff needs to be entered in exactly.Code:BeginPlayer Team=0 LeaderType=LEADER_TOKUGAWA LeaderName=diplo_american CivDesc=TXT_KEY_CIV_JAPAN_DESC CivShortDesc=TXT_KEY_CIV_JAPAN_SHORT_DESC CivAdjective=TXT_KEY_CIV_JAPAN_ADJECTIVE FlagDecal=Art/Interface/TeamColor/FlagDECAL_Dot.dds WhiteFlag=0 CivType=CIVILIZATION_JAPAN Color=PLAYERCOLOR_RED ArtStyle=ARTSTYLE_ASIAN
The easiest thing to do is start up a new game with all the correct civs and settings. Start it up in SP mode, go to WorldBuilder and save it. Open up the worldbuilder save in a text editor and copy the entire game, team, and player sections. Paste them over the game, team and player sections for your map. Then save.
You'll then need to open the WBS with Civ and adjust the starting position of each civ.
Then you'll need to erase the revealed tiles for each civ. Since their former starting positions will still be visible on the map. This can be done in the world builder, or in a text editor. Generally I think it is easier to take care of this in a text editor. Just use the search function to find any instance of the word "reveal" in the plot section and erase those lines.
Also, for those of us who are using custom named civs, you will need to edit this section:
Currently those tags refer to the text file (another file located in assets/xml but you can just replace that with text. So "TXT_KEY_CIV_JAPAN_DESC" will produce "Japan". If you want to rename this, just replace "TXT_KEY_CIV_JAPAN_DESC" with "NBA All-Stars" or "Estonia" or whatever people want to use for their custom civ. I believe I PMed you my title. Short desc is generally the same as the desc, unless the name can be shortened, i.e. "United States of America" and "USA". Then for Adjective, obviously, put in the adjective. For Japan it'd be Japanese. For Estonia, it'd be Estonian. Etc.Code:CivDesc=TXT_KEY_CIV_JAPAN_DESC CivShortDesc=TXT_KEY_CIV_JAPAN_SHORT_DESC CivAdjective=TXT_KEY_CIV_JAPAN_ADJECTIVE
If this is all too complicated, please just send the file to me and I will take care of it. I won't open the file up in Civ to see the map, I'll just take care of the civ stuff. If you can send me the coordinates for their starting positions I can take care of that too.Captain of Team Apolyton - ISDG 2012
