The mod is not showing up for me

Often times Civilization just fails to make the file properly and just had the mod / workshop file hanging out along with the mod folders, not in it's own one at all. One fix I've found is usually making a folder with the same name as the mod file, thing putting that in there, then starting up the mods menu in the game. It should download it properly from there. I'll be it in sometimes a code jumbled file folder name, but otherwise completely functional.

Does anyone know what makes this mod not show up in the folder? I'd try manual install but I can't find the file anywhere

you should update this also. Its a really good mod!

The Decepticons should be led by Star Scream. Truly he is the only one worthy to lead the seekers into battle.(plz note this is a joke)

@ECI-Trabe

Yes to both.

Necro, but with regards to the Decepticon UA, about the unique promotions.

1) Do they stack? (As in, a unit with a unique promotion conquers a capital/city state, they get another promotion)

2) Does conquering non-original capitals count for the purpose of getting promotions?

@SaphRub

Next, you'll need to unzip the civ5mod file with WinRar, 7-Zip or any other program that can unzip the file.

After that, you'll need to place the file in the C:\Users\Your Name\Documents\My Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 5\MODS folder. (Mind you, your name is supposed to be the your user name for the computer).

You should see this mod in the mod menu when you play.

@PHXHRC

Got it, but how do i put it in one of my folders for mods?

@PHXHRC

Got it. Thanks mate.

@SaphRub

Try using {LINK REMOVED}http://steamworkshop.download instead, If not, I'm not sure what else I can do. Maybe ask you parents about this.

@PHXHRC

Cant find D:\Users?

@SaphRub

Maybe check it around D:\Users?

@PHXHRC

I cannot find cache, i reckon this is because i installed it on my D: drive.

@SaphRub

Well...

I'm not sure why would Norton block it.

Another way to download it is to go to C:\Users\Your Name\Documents\My Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 5\cache, delete Civ5ModsDatabase and then start up Civ5 again. Go to Mods, and wait the game to redownload the mod, although it will do this for all mods you downloaded.

@PHXHRC

I tried, and as my parents have norton family installed on this pc, it is blocked.

@SaphRub

Try using steamworkshopdownloader.com . Follow the instructions there, and you can get the mod. You'll need WinRar or some similar program to unzip it.

Hi! Sorry to bother you but when i subscribe i take a look at my mod list and it does not have anything to do with transformers.

@imnotinwanganui

Thank you!

And besides, you can't upload a Civ6 mod as a Civ5 mod.

Thanks!

@imnotinwanganui

Don't worry, I'll have two different versions, one for Civ5 and one for Civ6.

Sorry to bother you @PHXHRC For when you do update this mod for civ 6 Can you please have two different Mod pages? Like 1 page for this mod for BNW and a separate/2nd page for civ 6? Because I don't intend on playing civ 6 for numerous reasons and it would suck if you updated this and I couldn't play it anymore on civ 5. Thanks

Thanks for replying :) good luck with all that.

@imnotinwanganui

2. Sadly, no. But with Civ 6's modding tools are almost out, I've been thinking to make Shockwave a alternate leader for Decepticons once I make the Decepticons for Civ 6.
That said, I'll have to update this mod eventually to have Event and Decisions and stuff like that.

Hey @PHXHRC this is an awesome mod,Just two quick things to say about it.

1. I have Gods and Kings and downloaded if even though its for BNW it works fine on GnK but has no special buildings or units Probaly my favourite mod so far

2- Can you make an Shockwave from G1 [the origanal show] civ? That would be awesome :) his icon could just be plain purple with a yellow dot in the middle so its like his eye and his colours could be purple and yellow, his UB could be a spacebridge? Thanks

@Weboh

Probably not. With Civ6 out, I'm thinking to put some of the ideas I have for Civs for Civ6 instead. Right now, I'm trying to update my Civs for mod support for the Event and Decisions mod and adding extra diplomacy lines for the Civ4 Diplomatic features and the Community Patch.

Do you have any more mods in the works?

@gemini_left

Do you see the mod as a .civ5mod file? Sometimes the game won't unzip it properly so you'll need to unzip with a program like WinRar or 7Zip.

dude this thing sucks you cant even use it

Fuck me it's great!
Take a big Optimus heavy gun, author!

@mudflap13

If I understand you correctly, the unique units are just renamed vanilla units, unfortunately.

Are there actual con/bot units or renamed Vanilla units?

I'm not able to get the Decepticons UA for random promotions to work. At first I played a game with another mod that altered promotions and figured that might conflict, but then I disabled that and still didn't get the promotion when capturing an opposing Civ's capital city. I tried one more time with no other mods whatsoever but this one and still, no promotion upon capturing a capital.

The free courthouse always works.

@Gekigami

I guess you can try to download it via steamworkshopdownloader.com . Just put this page's url in the box and download it. You'll need to unzip afterwards.

Nope, i've searched and there is no file and even when I found something that looked like it was apart of it...it was also blank . I have no idea, i've never had this happen before and I have downloaded some other Civs just too be sure its only this one. I have also unsubbed deleted the "Files" and resubbed but now it won't even give me the time or day.

@Gekigami

Sometimes the game won't unzip the civ5mod files, so you'll need to unzip them yourself. Use a program like WinRar to unzip it.

I don't know what is going on but your files both do and do not download. Like the folders there just there is nothing in it. Yet Steam also says it downloaded something. Do you have any ideas as to what is wrong?

@Troller0001

Thanks Troller! I couldn't done it without you! (And LeeS)

Congrats on the release OTiger!

@ Weboh

Ok, I see what you mean. I haven't though too much about how to buff up the Prime, so maybe I could take your suggestion.

Well, like all Great Generals are Primes, right? But only one is actually a Prime, because only one gets the bonus at any given time. Every other Civ can have as many of their UUs as they can train--even when they're great people. So maybe make one Prime be the Prime, but make the others have a promotion that gives them an extra 5% combat and culture/production bonus.

@ Weboh

If I understand you correctly, do mean having the Prime to have another bonus, like something that doesn't have to do with the promotion? I was thinking to, although I thought it had enough bonuses already. There's also the main fact you can get a Prime pretty early with the Honor policy tree, although Honor isn't the best policy tree.

I like the Prime. I know why you made it be only one at a time would have the unique promotion--because it would be OP otherwise--but I feel that only being able to have more than one of the UUs at a time makes the civ not feel as unique. Maybe make the other Primes give a +5% bonus?

I think the promotions turned out nicely, and it's good that you decided to make city-states count to get them too. Maybe you should make the units with the promotions look different so it's easer to keep track of them.
