Useless World Builder
Is it just me, or can you only make sub par maps on world builder now. I tried to load the maps I made, and nothing I do makes Civs spawn where I set them to, or have what I set them to have. Is it really that useless, or is there some super secret hidden function that keeps it from messing up when I start it?

I think you have to save it (and play it) as a scenario rather than a map if you want to do that.

I tried loading it as a scenario, but it still didn't work. The program doesn't allow you to do that while you are in it, and it doesn't save as a scenario, so you have to load it as a map.

I'm pretty sure there's a way of doing it, I'm sure I edited a map and start positions once, then loaded it as a scenario to play it. I can't remember the details though. I'll have to mess around with it and figure out how to do it again. I'll get back to you on that.

Hey guys !

First of all merry Christmas !

Then, my question is : how/where did you get the World/map/scenario builder ! I want a historical map where all the civilization stat where they historically did. Plus I have problems not being able to play the mds I suscribed on the workshop :-(

Thanks,

It's in Library - Tools - Sid Meier's Civilization V SDK.

You have to play a mod game, not a normal game. You go through the Mods menu and you have to activate the mods you want to use.

Merry Christmas too!

Hey ! Thanks for helping.

I finally found the SDK BUT it is said not to be available for download... But other SDK for SinglePlayer or Multiplayer seem to be.

Then, I am not perfectly familiar with all the terms in English because my interface is in French. However, I do not get what mod game is vs. normal game. When I launch CIV 5 BNW, I get to the interface where I have to choose among : SinglePlayer/Multiplayer/Options/Other/Downloaded content/ Quit. When I go to SinglePlayer I can choose among : Play/"Customize" (don't know the exact wording in English)/Load/Scenarios... If I click on scenarios, I only get those I downloaded by paying, not the ones from the community....

Any clue ?

To complete, the SDK available are source base ones.

I have a cloud in the "cloud column" for the worldbuilder sdk...

Not sure why it says it's not available for download.

I think you choose Single Player, then Mods. Can't check now sorry, christmas dinner beckons...
