The file named FasterAircraft.sql should be opened from the My Documents My Games Sid Meier’s Civilization 5 MODS Faster Aircraft Animations (v 1)” folder, and the new value on the three lines that appear should be changed to two. This mod is moreover also applicable for the Mac version of Civilization. 6 – Civilization Nights. Civ4 modders will be accustomed to replacing files to make changes. If a new Civ4Civilizations.xml file is added to the mod the base Civ4Civilizations.xml won't be used. That is not the case with Civilization V. Instead of replacing files all mods automatically inherit the base objects, and modders. Start Civ V and navigate to the Mods Browser screen, the game should automatically unpack the.civ5mod file into a sub-directory of the same name Enable the mod(s) you wish to play with, click Next, then click the Single Player item at the top of the next screen (it looks like a title but is actually a menu option!). Delete the folder 'MPMODSPACK' or move it out of your DLC folder. PRO TIPS: To make it easier to install/uninstall put a shortcut on your desktop to Civ 5's DLC folder. When you are done playing with the mod move the 'MPMODSPACK' folder to the desktop to Civ normally. To play an NQ Mod game again just drag it back in easy. FINAL NOTE: If you’re not using Steam, or for some other reason, you’ve had to download the mod manually rather than selecting it from the Mods Browser, after initial download you’ll need to manually move it over to your Civ V mods folder (most likely, My DocumentsMy GamesSid Meiers Civilization VMODS).

Civilization V Errors:
#1 Civilization V Windows 10 Issues
Some users are experiencing problems with the game (and indeed lots of other games) after upgrading to Windows 10. The following steps have resolved it for most users:
Make sure you have the most up to date drivers available from the GPU maker. This means Intel, AMD or nVidia, not your system OEM. OEMs are rarely up to date with the drivers they provide.
Check that Windows hasn’t mysteriously made parts of your user folder (“My Documents” etc., ) read-only, for mysterious and unexplained reasons.
Either uninstall and reinstall the ga or verify game files.

Make sure the executable is not set to any compatibility mode or run as administrator. If that doesn’t work, try enabling those options instead (but they shouldn’t be necessary.
Some people have reported needing to run one or more of the redists that come with the game affected (such as a VC redist and DirectX); you may have to select a ‘repair’ option when you run them.
#2 Civilization V Crashes
Some players are encountering crashes at the startup of the game or random crashes while they are playing. Also, some of them reported crashes on opening movies, but you can quickly fix them with the workaround below.
To fix the game crashes, you need to follow our tutorial at the end of the post, and after you apply it to your game, it will run fine with no crashes.
“I keep crashing on the games I start… I’ve been saving as I go and it’s always the same (for instance this playthrough it’s on turn 92). No matter how many times I reload, it always crashes at that point. New PC, supposed to handle this game easily. My graphics card is not overheating. Any advice?”
*Game crashing on opening movies:
If the game crashes when the movies are playing, you may need to delete the movie files. These are found in
C:Program Files (x86)SteamSteamAppscommonSid Meier’s Civilization V
and end in WMV (Civ5_Opening_Movie_en_US.wmv, for example). If you have Gods and Kings, you will also need to delete the WMV file (Civ5XP_Opening_Movie_en_US.wmv) from

#3 Civilization V Not Starting
“I start the game. I get to which DirectX version I can choose. I choose 10/11. My steam stopped saying that I played Civ 5. Nothing happens.”
Civ V Mod Folder Minecraft
“I’m haveing the core i7 vPro T520. I could play the game perfectly for a long while. Now suddenly after I didn’t play for like two months It doesn’t start anymore. Must have been a steam update. Several people couldn’t play the game anymore. But that was like two months ago. And I still cant play it.”
For some players the game doesn’t even start they click Play in Steam Library, and nothing happens, or they choose the DirectX version, they want to run the game with, and after that also, nothing happens. Steam stops, and it says that Civilization V is running, but no game starts.
Solution: To fix this issue and start the game you need to follow our tutorial at the end of the post.
#4 Civilization V Servers Too Busy
This is usually caused by antivirus software stopping the Steam client from downloading the game. Temporarily disable your antivirus and try downloading the game again. Be sure to turn it back on once the game is installed.
Another possible cause is trouble connecting to Steam’s download server. In Steam settings, change your download region and try the download again.
#5 Civilization V Linux Issues
*Unable to use DLC
If you installed Civilization V the day it was launched on SteamOS, you might not be able to use any DLCs for the game. This was fixed quickly, but you will need to validate your game files (verify game cache) one time to access your DLCs.

*No text using ATI/AMD graphics
If the game does not show text while using ATI graphics, try using the latest beta drivers[support.amd.com] from AMD’s site. These instructions may help.

#5 Civilization V Low FPS and other performance issues
Don’t see a thread addressing this so thought I’d jump in with my patch problem. Since the patch was applied a day or so ago, my game’s performance has completely tanked. Was fine before the patch. Have latest drivers and the computer is well above the game’s “requirements.”
At first, it looked a lot like the known core threading problem. Huge delays after clicking a button, etc., so tried that fix without success. Also, dumbed down completely the video options and tried in DirectX9. Still no help.
Symptoms:
1. Game response incredibly slow once a game is loaded or started.
2. Long time lags for almost everything.
3. Choosing next turn takes forever as the computer chugs through the AI players incredibly slowly.

Get a tour.
- If you have no idea about modding and what are Lua and Xml, you should give a look at Civ5 Modding Explained.
Civ V Mod Folder 1.12.2
Read the guide.
- The best introduction to civ5 modding is still the Kael's Guide. However it was written a long time ago and some information is obsolete or missing.
Import your files into VFS.
- The main change since Kael wrote his guide is about the VFS (Virtual File System). Forgetting to import files into the VFS is the common source of problems for beginners.
![Civ v mods steam Civ v mods steam](https://www.strategygamer.com/assets/BlogPosts/civ-6-mods.jpg)
Get the right tools for the job.
- See Civ5 Useful Programs. You should have installed the SDK of course, but it is also strongly recommended that you get a tool to search in all civ5 files at once, to compensate for the lack of documentation. You may also need additional softwares to extract and read the textures, test and debug your mod, etc.
Modify your ini files.
- See Debugging#Configuration.
See also the Modding tutorials section on the forums.
Also note that the XML and Lua sections each contain specific tutorials, articles and extensive documentation.
