	Modifying .AIP and .FLI functions query Support Apolyton, buy Alpha Centauri

Is it possible to effectively modify these kinds of files besides just changing weighting numbers and values?

In other words, does SLIC work within .AIP and .FLI files?

Cheers,

No, SLIC does not work. Wes and Nordicus did some awesome things with those files for their AAips mod though, and provided some documentation, IIRC. You might want to check that out: http://apolyton.net/dir/index.php?i...ts=4397&cat=185

aip_data.xls - master spread sheet used to generate the .AIP files (Ctrl-M to make)
aipgen.xls - used to create the science lists
sci advances.xls - help figure out build lists for science personalities
mil advances.xls - help figure out build lists for military personaliies

The readme.txt in the AIP folders contains the above; implying that these .xls files (aip_data.xls, aipgen.xls, sci advance.xls and mil advance.xls) exist. But they are nowhere to be found. Any thoughts?

	Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

I'm at work so I don't have the game with me here, but I'm fairly certain those files were for the Activision development team only, you don't and shouldn't have them (if they are what I think they are, they wouldn't be of much use to you if you did -- they're used to generate the source code required to read the fli and aip files). You'll have to do with the aip and fli files.
