Maybe I missed this or I am missing something, but I do not recall seeing any mention of the Gov needing to be be turned on and off.

In the talk about getting the first growth and building a worker as an example. If you are using the fish in the lake for six turns and need to move it the bonus grassland for the seventh one. You will over ride the Gov if set to manage happiness. If don't set the gov back to manage happiness, the gov is likely to drop the new citizen on the lake. If it does then you do not get the 10 shields.

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Hi everyone... just to let all know, I have been playing this one, since the Saturday after it was released, but have been severely time constrained and haven't really been able to play as much as I'd like nor to get on 'poly very much.

That said... it's AWESOME! The AU mod is just great, the gameplay is funfunfun, and Dominae is, hmmm, a right b*stard!

I've read the DARs matching up to where I am (past Steam Power), and will try to get mine up this week. Interesting how the different games have played out... mine was prolly most similar to Nathan's early on, although we diverged when it came to warfare. And, as usual, Armies have played a somewhat larger role in my game than others thus far reported.

Anyway, again, it's a great course, and I'm having a lot of fun with it... but more PUBLICITY is needed though! :doitnow:

Thanks again for getting it set up.

Thanks. The changes look highly interesting. I might have to have a go of 501 with the AU mod when I finish the stock game.

I'm a bit confused. I downloaded the Mod version file and started playing.

Then I later went and looked at Alexman's "AU Mod C3C Version" thread and found that there are AU Mod 1.02 and AU Mod 1.03beta files that need to be downloaded. These are different zip files to the Mod version zip you've linked to this thread.

So do I need to download the 1.02 or 1.03 beta files as well, and if so where do I install them?

You're all set. Version 1.03b is the same as 1.01b but with the Frigate/Caravel/Galleon movement in Ocean fixed.

The AU 501 game uses 1.01b, but you don't need the 1.01b version of the bix file on your computer. The mod is already part of the sav file.

No problem Dominae. While I may not be actively involved in setting up the mod or the games, I still drop by daily to see what you guys are up to. Besides, my lack of involvement gives me more time to make the updates.

I am highly impressed by the new system and having the AU mod panel.

Maybe Firaxis can include the AU Mod C3C addition in their Civ 3 gold edition they are no doubt wanting to put out sometime.

No one reads the news anyway.

Better each time to put a post in the Conquests forum about the game. I bet there are many who may be interested who haven't seen this yet. When people know the drill then you can stop.

I mentioned in several threads as well and it is hard to miss if they come to the forum.

AU501 had a fairly large turn out for AU games, did it not? A very good response as far as AAR's.

I used to read the news all the time when I first started coming to Poly, especially the Civ 3 News. I wanted to know the what-not about the next patch.

I find it interesting though that Nuclear Master isn't around much anymore. Maybe he got tired of all of accusing him of wanting to be a mod.

He disappeared just AFTER he became a mod though. He was one of two mini-mods for the C3C IDG democracy game forum

Have to start this before it gets consigned to history.

A few questions first however: I know that AU v1.01b is included with the AU version of the save, but this has some little bug. If I download v1.03b and use that as the default rules with the AU save, will the ship movement bug be fixed, or will I need to then use the stock file with the AU rules?

Also, about the DARs: with the exception of the first one that has a definite time period, where does one stop and the next start? Or should I just write the whole damn thing and then split it all up when I'm done according to what others have posted in their threads?

Full PM-box? Change here!

The AU save includes the mod rules, so even if you have another version of the mod on your computer, it will make no difference.

Unless Dominae wants to replace the save with a 1.03b version, you have the choice of playing AU mod with Frigate/Galleon/Caravel movement bug, or stock rules.

As for the DARs they all have a requirement to avoid spoiler information. I post my updates as soon as I have reached each thread requirement, as long as I'm at a good stopping point. For example, I will post my next DAR as soon as I learn Flight, unless I'm in the middle of a war that I want to include in my DAR. The most important part is to not disclose information that you shouldn't know at that point. Don't talk about Rubber in the Steam Power thread, for example.
