Civ IV in-game World Builder Manual Support Apolyton, buy Civilization 2


Follow the linky to the Civ IV in-game World Builder Manual!

Now that CivIV is on the way, I'm sure some folks are just itching to get in and start modding. So here is the first of a few (that I know of) manuals on how to mod CivIV.

Dale

Civ4 in-game World Builder Manual:
Civ IV World Builder Manual

Civ4 in-depth analysis of the WBS file for advanced modders:
Civ4 in-depth WBS file analysis

IMPORTANT NOTE:

To enable all the features of the World Builder you must follow Soren's instructions. This will hopefully resolve any issues with the WB.

The reason we are posting this is that it fixes the various issues with the world-builder (like not being able to place units in areas in the fog-of-war and the minimap being wrong) if you have it set.


If there's further issues please report them.

Dale

EDIT:
- Added cheat code [29 Oct]
- Redirected URL to Poly location of file [29 Oct]
- Added "In-depth WBS analysis" thread link [1 Nov]

Looks like good stuff, after a brief skim.

* vovan hopes a similar document dedicated to scripting is forthcoming.

Thanks.

If you follow all the steps in the manual then you'll have created your own multi-player 3-player "gold rush" scenario.

Nice to see.

At the last page it was confirmed that borderless maps are in. Cylindrical in two directions (X and Y).

It's got some great advice (and I mean that) but a bit light on details.

Remember the doco only covers the World Builder. It doesn't cover python or xml.

So we change it to:
cheatcode=chipotle

Is that correct? Does that also enable the cheat code that lets you heal units with alt+[ ?

I hope you have it figured out by now

if not

on top right when you enter the world builder is a group of button and just run the cursor over them and one says "EXIT WORLD BUILDER" just save what you have done first

as for the second part, not sure if you can tell if someone has used it or not

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life


Dale

I been working and tweaking a very generic and crude scenario with me vs 8 Deity Level ai, Inland lakes with me on an isolated Island, plenty resiources.

I was rying to up my gold to start with.

I can do it by EDITCITY in WB to a max of 5000 Gold.

I was reading how to change starting gold with a text editor, I choose Notepad and it saved but when i open the game the save does not show and go back and yes it is there, under my name listed.

Could I be missing something?

I went under:

Handicap=HANDICAP_NOBLE


I tried below 5000 and no good either.

Thanks if anyone has an idea for a work around.

I think maybe I have to enable the cheat section "chipolte" in the ini file, in order to utilize this feature in the WB, I will go see.

Be back, as soon as I find the ini file.

Can you set a limit to the maximum technological advancement or change the stats of units and so forth like you could in Civ III?
