That happens sometimes, but deleting the cache should fix it. See the FAQ above.

crashes my game after intro cinematic when modded save file is present

@Captain Cum Dust
Thank you for the kind words. I'm glad that so many people have enjoyed my mods.

you did a good thing stephen. look at all the people you made happy. you made this world just that little bit better. thank you

@[20r] schmeling65
Sorry, but no. I'm done with modding for Civ5.

could you add/edit the religion condition to the one in CIV6?
when half of the cities of one player have the religion, the player gets converted completly. The moment the player who created the religion has every player converted, he wins.

That would it be like in civ6

8 players with me, and 2 players were conquered by other player.

@rallbut
Sorry, I don't know if that is possible. Also, I'm done with modding for Civ5, so there will be no further updates to this mod (except bug fixes).

@Xiaopulaen
Sorry, but I'm done modding for Civ5 so I will not be doing this.

@Dvid
How many players were there? I could see that this could possibly happen under some circumstances, but it is very rare. I'll look into it and see if there is an easy fix, and if so I will patch the mod.

Recently I started a new game with this mod.
Spread: 72%.
Followers: 326
Holy Cities: 4/5
But there are only 4 holy cities because no one founded a fifth religion!
So now what?

Can you make a VP compatible version?

Do you know if there is a way to make the victory conditions to work like establishing corporate dominance in Vox Populi

@昨日霓虹
Thanks for the offer, but I am not updating this mod any more, so I am going to have to decline.

Can I work in translation work for Chinese?

And this time you don't even need to build the world bank.

@office
Sorry that that happened. Did you try deleting the cache before reinstalling? That usually is the fix for if this mod crashes the game. I do not know why this mod sometimes corrupts the cache, but it does.

@ThatDoctor7
Sorry, but I have indeed moved on to Civ6, so I will not be updating this mod for compatibility issues with other mods. I will add a note to the description so others know that there are issues with the religious victory when running Vox Populi. Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

Yeah, that's probably it. Any chances that you want to adapt the mod to Vox Populi, or are you all about Civ6 now? Just asking.

A great idea for a mod, but this one crashes my whole game, had to delete every save game and reinstall. A pity!

@ThatDoctor7
I think Vox Populi might be causing the issue. I'm not very familiar with the mod as a lot of its development happened after I moved on from Civ5 to Civ6, but a quick search of CFC indicates that it does indeed change how the state religion of a civ is handled. If a player can be considered the founder of more than one religion, or if a religion can ever become an orphan (having no founder), that will break the code of this mod in a way that I do not think I could fix. If you still have the save for your game, try giving away those cities or somehow razing them and see if that does the trick.

I think I understand why the programming logic is not working here, so bear with me as I try to explain it (and probably fail):

My religion is Orthodoxy.
I conquer the holy cities for Protestantism and Buddhism and Hinduism, and convert them to Orthodoxy. I am now the leader of those three religions even if they're not my majority one. Thus the victory conditions will always consider them of their own starting religion for victory purposes.
I peacefully convert the holy cities for Catholicism and Confucianism. These actually count because, by not owning the cities, I am not the leader of their religions.
The end result was:
80%/70% World Population
1100/550(?) Practicioners
3/6 Holy Cities
No Religious Victory.
(I suppose I could have traded the other three holy cities after having converted them, but I was embargoed by the World Council.)

I am playing with the Vox Populi modpack, so that may have something to do with it.

@ThatDoctor7
By "conquered and wiped out" do you mean that you own the cities and have converted them, or do you mean that you own the cities and have destroyed the players who owned them previously? The code checks for players that have ever existed, checks to see if they have founded a religion, and gets that religion's holy city and adds it to the table of cities that needs to be converted, so I'm unsure of what sequence of events could have broken that rather simple check. The UI in this instance reads directly from the table of holy cities, so I think it is an actual problem and not just a UI issue. If you have a save of the situation could you please share it so I can have a look?

Hi, there seems to be an issue regarding Religious Victory, though maybe it's only a UI one.
My latest Rome game, I conquered and wiped out two competing Holy Cities and their respective religions. Right now I have 5 Holy Cities out of 6 following my Religion, 2 conquered and 2 converted peacefully through use of Great Prophets, but the Victory Conditions screen seems to only register the peacefully converted ones, not the conquered ones. Is this an actual problem or just a UI glitch? Do you intend to fix it?

@♣Dom♣
Yes, for each of the two new victories you are required to achieve all three victory conditions (at the same time). You are not utterly dominant economically unless you are fabulously wealthy and have everything money can buy (one of each luxury). If you have not played the diplomacy game, you might have to go to war with the AI to get all the luxuries. If you are on their good side and they refuse to sell, just up the price (they all have a price, even if they pretend otherwise, but it might be obscenely high).

I've found issues with the Econimic victory. I've gotten both over 20,000 gold and 400 gpt for over 15 turns, and the game still continues. Do I need all 3 conditions to win?

u the best

is this compatible with More Luxuries mod or other resources mod?

Who can I talk to to learn more. If I want to take a stab at it?

@goldenboy2.0
AI programming is beyond my ability, so they don't respond at all. These victories are entirely player oriented, but they were designed with the default AI in mind such that normal play will work towards inhibiting the player's ability to achieve the goals, even though the AI don't actively persue the goals themselves.

How exactly does ai respond the these two new opportunities?

Thank you so much.

@CaptainReklaw
Note that for UI, you have to import the files you are changing such that they fully replace the normal files that handle functions you are trying to change. In the UI files in this mod you will see that the files are substantially the same as the base game files they are meant to replace, the only changes I made were those between comments "EVC Start" and "EVC End". If you are not making any additional UI changes to the files "VictoryProgress", "EndGameMenu", or "AdvancedSetup", you can just copy those files from this mod into yours. If you are making additional changes, make sure all changes you are making are merged together in the appropriate file along with all the remaining base game UI info. And remember to make sure that import is set to 1 in the .modinfo file for the appropriate files, as all UI files must be imported to take effect.

I asked to use a snippet of your code for my scenario a while back, and you agreed. The scenario is coming along fine but I can't get it to show the victory progress. Can you possibly give me some advice?

@dukenukkem
I won't be updating this mod any further, but your suggestion to create a little tutorial so people can customize the mod's victory parameter's to their preferences is a good idea. I will add such a tutorial to the end of the description when I have time.

@Stephen This is a crucial mod for expansive players that don't want to stick to the traditions means of play. It's worth noting that by reducing the economic conditions (5K-10K gold in treasury, 150 gpt, and more than half of the resources), the AI can stumble into victory. The AI can be bad at managing an economy, although I sometimes see certain civs gaining an excess of 150, which can be difficult for players to acheive without the Commerce policies. This is more accessible for larger maps, and for those of us using mods that can remove luxury resources, we can avoid game breaks.

As for religious victories, I wouldn't mind a blend between that presented in Civ 6 and your version; that is, at least half of every civ's citizens are practicing one religion in addition to the holy cities.

All this could be modified through the resources downloaded here without releasing a new mod version, although I think a guide might be helpful for players to optimize their preferences.

@Stephen Thanks.

@Kill3rCat the Ironfist D-2-506
It looks for all resources, so it will pick up those added by other mods as long as they add them in the same format as the vanilla resources.

Will the Economic Victory be compatible with mods which add new luxury resources, or will it only look for vanilla luxury resources?

@Stephen Thank you very much for letting me know. Keep up the great work.

@Stephen: Aye, sir. Oddly, it no longer is the case, so it must have been a temp glitch. ;)

@JEELEN
That is unfortunate, but not surprising. Adding victory conditions requires changing some fundamental aspects of the game code, so it is not at all surprising that it would be incompatible with another mod that also changes fundamental aspects of the game code.

@Shiroe
I don't think I'll be increasing the GPT requirements, as those numbers you mentioned seem much higher than what the average player gets. However, if you want to change the number for yourself, that is a very easy fix: go to the mod's folder, navigate to the "Lua" folder in this mod, open the file "EconomicVictory.lua" in a text editor, and edit the line "g_EVCGoldTarget = 20000;" to change the accumulated gold target and the line "g_EVCGPTTarget = 400;" to change the GPT target (make sure you only edit the number itself, changing anything else could break the mod).

@Stephen: Can't report a CTD, but your mod seems to block IGE somehow. Bit of a pity.

I love the Religion victory, the AI's inherent nature to make worship Shinto or Islam whenever possible is great when I am attempting to destroy their religions at the same time. However, would it be possible to modify the GPT requirement to something like 1,500 for a difficulty like Emperor? And the overall requirement to something closer to 40,000 Accummulative? Or would this be too high for an AI to possibly acquire during a playthrough? I usually play Emperor and get about 5,000 Gold produced per turn by about turn 200-250, with a usual 3,500(Most of which is just workers ilding around due to a lack of an improved script) put back into costs and fees. Love these 2 victory conditions btw, nice work on them.

@Zet
Unfortunately there is no permanent fix. Since it only happened rarely for me there was no way for me to figure out what was causing it. My best guess was that it had something to do with mods being updated, but if you are getting that crash every time I don't know why that would be. Sorry I can't be of more help on this.

I don't remember if I commented on this before but... It says it happens "on rare occasions" that this mod crashes the game when you try to start it. However, it always happens for me. I'll be able to run the game once or twice with the mod, then it starts crashing every subsequent run. Is there any fix for this? I love having the option of these 2 additional victory conditions.

Ohhhhh i did not see the luxery resource part, ok, dickheads with monopolies can still offer a challange I can work with that!

@Zalseon
No, but you do have to have all 3 victory conditions met to win the victory, so while it will be susbtantially easier with more gold (but then again so will every other victory) you still have to collect 1 of each luxury resource.

Is there a way to make economic victory based on a percentage of total global GDP? some of my ust have mods combined will have everyone winning in the middle ages lol.

@Stephen
Thank you for makeing that clear, this if far better than i expected and we will definatly be using this in our next game

@Unknown_Umbreon
Each of the victories requires all 3 objectives listed. So Economic Victory requires 400GPT for 10 turns and stockpiling 20,000 gold and getting at least 1 copy of each luxury resource. The last one should make things very competitive in multiplayer. Also, the gold requirements scale with difficulty - they will go up (ord down) by 50GPT and 5,000 gold respectively for each difficulty level above (or below) Prince. Also, for multiplayer religious victory you will probably want to make a house rule not to station inquisitors in cities to block spread but rather just use them to eradicate religions, or else the Holy City requirement may become impossible (the AI never uses its inquisitors to block, so this is only an issue with human opponents).

Is the Economic victory 400 net GPT because if so me and my friends are nearly always on that before turn 200 (prince). even if it isn't one could just delete their army until they have 400 GPT then win the game 10 turns later. in its current state i feel this is verry easy to achive and sould be rased to 800 alteast because me and are friends would love to add this to our game through a multiplayer mod manager and if we did we would be forced to remove the economic vicotroy.
