and another one. there's a problem. it seems my solution requires the "mod" to be loaded whenever a game is loaded. this seems stupid, since after turn 1 its really all in the savegames anyways in this case. but civ4 works this way.

so, i say on the first turn everyone should send the modded file + instructions to the next player along with the saves.

also, if too many people think it's too much of a hassle to have the game (automatically) restart on loading the save, we could drop the settler thing... but i don't think that will be necessary

well, my 2 cents worth, I have had nothing but problems using a mod

I even had problems when I modded single player in a game with Vovan the results came across into his save

I really dont want a modded game as I am in so many wonderful games, I will back out if it has to be modded

Thanks for the offer thou

there might be another solution that doesn't require loading a mod each time, i'll see how that goes

if it doesn't work, we could still just use the industrial start to speed things up. i don't like it though. i would play, but i'd rather play ancient

I agree...

lets just get an ancient start happening - a good normal game thus less bugs

[SebP]

ok. grandpa you won't be needing to load a mod ever... the solution was off course obvious... i'm just posting too fast (i sure hope i didn't this time)
if bronson just copies the single modified file over his original before he sets up the game and restores it to the original right after, noone will need to use civ4s modloader, since the only change is really the number of starting units, which will be hitherto be in the savegames, there shouldn't be any problems if we play with the original files and just use the modifications for setting it up
