In 1 collection by Schwifty K
Let's get Schwifty Dawn of Man
10 items
Description
Scenario with 10 locations, all with a lot of flat land and abundant resources.
Supports huge population limits. More ore than you will mine in one game.
No Base - only Nomad Start! Explore and settle on a nice spot.
2 Versions: Normal gameplay and Easy Version.


Features
No prehistoric animal extinction.
(Editing a few numbers in the config file to change animal values is easy).
Tech multiplier of 1.5 and 0.9 in the Easy Version - you may change that too.
More sticks!
Map Size: 4 (Like the default maps, try Medium Flatlands for smaller maps, Bloodline for bigger maps)

Easy Version
No human attackers.
No animal attackers, (wild animals may try to eat your children).
Slightly lowered tech cost.
No milestone for killing raiders.

Hints:
- If the animals hide at the end of the map, send hunters and scare them away!
- you can choose between "classic" and "easy version"
- Before you start building a new home: Take a look at the environment! There are usually more beautiful places than where your people start!

- Build a hearth to cook fish.

- Have a lot of fun!

Your people starve to death after reaching the copper age?

LOW FPS on some locations?
You may set density for DetailGrass and DetailReeds to 0 in the environment to test it:
Search for <id value="DetailReeds"/> and edit: <density value="0" />

Trouble with sound?
If you have trouble with the notification messages / storms and other ingame sounds and use windows / audio software, check the Enhancements!

The windows "Loudness Equalization" works not very good with Dawn of Man and Star Trek! Notifications or Red Alert might drive you crazy if you have it enabled. https://superuser.com/questions/695674/how-to-disable-auto-leveling-of-sound

Hey Cpt. Caps, what is your ingame language set to? Maybe that language is not available for the mod - but it should not default to CN :D
Unsubscribe and subscribe again to download it again - maybe that helps.
Else try to set your ingame language to english, should pick the english files then.

If nothing helps navigate to ..\steam\steamapps\workshop\content\858810\1693186543\Flatlands\
and get rid of the cn_ language file

Hey, thanks nice map can do super big city ,on my way for 1500 people lot of fun
Schwifty K  [author] 12 Apr, 2024 @ 12:14pm 
Is this maybe during Auto Save Progress? Or is it more frequently / permanent?
Anything else going on? Win Update, Windows Indexer, some antivirus, filesharing?
What do your CPU spikes say? Everything in the greenish or have you reached the BottleNeck of your system?

No other issue than this one. when they are walking in place it always on the way to do something not idle. when I save and reload it goes away then comes back after a bit

Hm, ok, strange. CPU load is fine then I guess, but could you please check?
Could you please also have a look on what the detail screen of such individuals tells about their next destination? Are they just "Idle" or heading somewhere?
Any other issues like crashes or such?
Does it go away when you save the game and load again?
Could you share screenshots / videos?

got 75-80 fps on x1 and x8 dont havent had this problem on vanilla with a pop of 250.
Schwifty K  [author] 17 Mar, 2024 @ 2:28am 
I assume that this is related to hardware. Could you check the following stats?
Whats your average FPS on x1 and on x8 ?
How much FPS during raider attacks (if you play with raiders).
CPU load while playing?
Reducing the amount of domestic animals might help if you want to go further.
Check the comment sections here: Starting Nov23
