Fantastical Map Script

Description
Maps with not much bearing on reality. Vast jungles next to icy wastes, etc. Mountains tend to divide regions of differing terrain. Number of deep oceans is controllable.

The map is a rendering of a polygonal world--a smaller map is just a lower resolution, therefore has smaller continents, regions, mountain ranges, rivers, etc. The number of polygons that make up the world of is controllable with the Granularity option.

It is possible to enable Climate Realism, but it's no Planet Simulator or Perfect World. The "realism" is a simple model based on latitude, with some randomness.

Thanks to AOM for updating this for Gathering Storm compatibility.

Great mod! My only complaint is that tundra seems to be non existent. It goes from snow straight to plains.

This map generates the perfectly imperfect maps. Your spawns will always be bad, while the AI gets great spawns.

Or it's just my terrible luck.

It gives good results and is highly, and easily, configurable. I love this map script.

Unfortunately it seems to not take into account several mods I also love to use, so I rarely choose it now. In base game version I was almost playing exclusively on it !

This is a nice one

Thanks Rex That worked nut I also was able to find another work around that let me use all my other mods. Someone uploaded an older version of the fantastical mod on the workshop and that previous version seems to have fixed whatever issue was happening. I you'd like the mod its here https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1752007598 . Hope that helps you too and i hope the mod creator can get the main mod fixed soon! Have fun playing Civ Rex!

Okay I have good news, I am pretty sure I figured out the cause of the startup error at least in my case. Apparently map scripts don't play well together even if you're not using them to generate a given map.

I disabled PerfectWorld, DetailedWorlds, and Shuffle++ and I've been able to get games started without a problem with all my other mods enabled. I hope @Shayleray sees this.

Having the same problem as Rex Bellator. Any solutions?

As I said in my previous comment I love this script but I do get errors with it, this is from the LUA log. Couldn't start this game
