Frustration Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

I have increased the number of civilizations allowed in a game to 11 by modifying the line in Profile.txt and UserProfile.txt in their respective directories.

I also changed the mean values in gold and production, but then changed them back to their original numbers thinking that might fix it, but to no avail. I looked wherever I made modifications from after the last time I could play CTP II. I cannot find the cause for my problem. I checked to make sure I made no format errors when I changed starting gold and public works for the AI in the Diff.txt file and there were no apparent errors.

I get an error message when I try starting CTP II. It says this: "Unable to init database." Has anyone run into this problem after changing the number of civilizations? Thanks for any help.

Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

this has happened to me once or twice. it was always caused by a problem with my modifications. it's probably a typo or something. if you post some of your changes, maybe a fresh pair of eyes can help you out.

The same thing happened to me, after I increased the the # of civs to 16. I ended up reinstalling CTP2 & everything works fine. I am currently having the KISS OF DEATH screen (Blue Message Screen) & automatic rebooting of my cpu.......yippee

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

Thanks for your input guys although, before I checked this post again, after seeing it with no responses the last couple of times, I went ahead and reinstalled. Then I started all modifications I previously had from scratch.

Now it SEEMS to work - I have 11 players allowed in my modifications and the game loaded fine. I will find out if I can actually play a game now with 11 players.
