[PB61 Tech Thread] New Pitboss - Greens (new player / newish)

[JackRB]

Followed through all instructions, everything all seemed to work on my end (Using a non-steam version of Civ). Thanks Ramk for having the test game for stuff like this.

Hopefully all the boring technical stuff is sorted quickly

FWIW, my first game was a real hassle getting everything to work. After that, I've pretty much never thought about it.

Ah the golden rule in software development. Never touch a running system.

I reinstalled CtH 2.05 from the PBSPY link, but it still gives me Version Mismatch. And when I try to load into a player's turn it shows a message including the word "protected" before crashing.

[vanrober]

did you change the mods folder name? That happened to josh on PB59

I'm getting the same version mismatch problem. I'm running using BTS_Wrapper.exe, with a modified INI file and shortcut to directly load CtH2.0.5, and I've installed the game via Steam. I downloaded the version of the mod listed on https://civ.zulan.net/pbspy/game/1/ - but that link goes to the dropbox where Charriu hosts the mod, is that the problem?

I was then able to actually load into a turn and it seemed to work, tho?

Did you start the 2015 version of BTS you had to install instead of the normal version?

I grabbed the BTS_Wrapper zip, which had a Civ4BeyondSword2015.exe included, and it seems like that's what the BTS_Wrapper.exe is using, based on Ramk's post that was linked.

[rekenner]

aha! Looking over the PB59 thread, should I do something like this?

Rename the CloseToHome folder to being just "CloseToHome_2.0"? Or is that not needed for this subversion of the mod / this PB server?

[civac2]

It depends how the folder/mod is named on the server.
