C4DG Turn Discussion Thread: Vol. 1

[snoopy369]

Jon and I are going to talk about the save tonight in a bit, and I'll probably play it for him tonight.

[snoopy369]

Well, we got partway through but Jon got called away. I posted in his private forum a possible save, but he may disagree with my guesses at his choices, so if he does it'll be tomorrow at the earliest.

[Jon Miller]

Sorry about that, phone call.

Additionally, I would like to apologise to Soopy because when I got back from the phone call, I didn't go to the turn chat thread right away, but instead dinked arround on another site for a bit (I had forgotten I was doing something before the phone call).

No problem, i take forever to sleep.

[Jon Miller]

Within a week I should either buy a memory stick or a laptop. Than I will download the save and the mod and the patch. I will have to transport it home to play a save, but Voxes turn arround time should not be longer than 24 hours after that.

(I would really rather buy the laptop)

What's the problem with your computer Jon?

[Addled Platypus]

with our turn player


here is what I get







hopefully this dissapears after I do a fresh install on the new computer later today

[snoopy369]

Make sure the C4DG mod is installed in the correct directory (in the C:\Program Files\Firaxis\Sid Meier's Civilization IV\Mods\C4DG Colors\ directory). If it's installed in the \My Documents\My Games\ directory, it will give you the above error!

[Addled Platypus]

aahhh

mods not custom mods

[Addled Platypus]

maybe not

same message....

now what?

I don't have access to the internet from home. And my computers at work are Linux... (and not mine).

Looks like you tried to load the save from in Civ IV?
Try just to double click the save file before booting Civ


If that doesn't work, Try to load the mod before the save.

Go into advance, load mods, C4DG Colors, game will restart, then load the save from the MP menu.

I haven't tried this recently, but the issue came up during CFC's demogame startup. We decided not to lock protected assets. I'm not completely sure this will help, but...

With protected assets, you can't have any mods in the "customassets" folder under "my documents". If you have any mods installed there and have a continuing need to use them, I'd recommend renaming this folder, letting the game recreate it, and then using a batch file to switch back and forth.

Word has been sent from the Horde encampment throughout all the lands, time to gather, the save draws near.
