Alej's Maps of the World (Earth Maps and Continents)

Description
TWO NEW EARTH MAPS 128*80 and 80*52 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FOR BRAVE NEW WORLD ONLY.

Collection of maps of the world with TSL, realistic resources and natural wonders.
The goal is to have playable maps with balance and flavour in mind.
Tested to death and crowded like it should (not-so crowded).
Maps default with no Time victory, most-asked Epic speed and King difficulty! If you don't like it, don't hesitate to report and/or change it in Worldbuilder.

The two new world maps are a mixture of true starting locations, realistics resources and balanced experiences. Civ roster will be changed after some period of times to accomodate with new civs or just mood. You can always change the TSL in Worldbuilder, i strongly recommend doing so, it's simple and i want you to power your vision of Earth map in mine. Feel free to customize it to your taste!

For the regional maps, I decided to split the civs in those maps to dedicate on one experience per civ. I'm choosing what civs are on what maps with balance and flavour in mind. If things have to be nerfed, they will.

- In Africa, you can play as Morroco, Assyria, Arabia, Babylon, Carthage, Egypt, Ethiopia, Greece, Persia, Rome, Songhai and Zulu.

- In Asia, you can play as China, Japan, Mongol, Korea, Siam, India, Huns and Indonesia.

- In Europe, you can play as the Celts, England, France, Germany, Netherlands, Spain, Portugal, Austria, Venice, Denmark, Sweden, Poland, Byzantium, Ottoman Empire and Russia.

- In America, you can play as USA, Iroquois, Shoshones, Aztec, Inca, Maya, Brazil and Polynesia.

Installation:
Just click subscribe (the green button).

Playing the map:
Once you're in the game go to Main Menu - Mods - Activate mod - Next - Single Player - set up game not Main Menu - Single Player - set up game. Choose one of the Alej_map from the drop down menu.

IMPORTANT: To avoid that random civilizations, starting positions and resources appear in your game (for instance China in Egypt) or if you start at the wrong place it is essential that you click the following button after choosing the map in the game setup screen, in order to have all the game elements as intended:

Now select your Civ and difficulty level. Done.



Known issues:

Workshop problems
If the map doesn't show up in your mod list, just delete the game cache in username\documents\\My Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 5\cache and restart the game.

Strange Civs in your game
If you do not own BNW, GnK and DLC civs, the game fills their gap with random civilizations. So you might encounter Siam in Babylon.

how i can get this mod

@DRagoneerX: You understood it well, speed is locked by the scenario, if i set it to normal game length then you are locked to normal. You can change it yourself via Worldbuilder, sorry about this, that's not my fault. I should be 4 version of each map with every settings covered but i'm lazy. (and i don't have a PC anymore....)

Started the scenario for asia as Japan, and changed the game length from Epic (default) to Marathon during the game set up, but as it was loading it switched back to Epic, when I noticed, I killede that game, and tried to set it up again, only for it to occur a second time.

I was wondering if this is a bug, or if that's just the only way it can be done when using the scenario option to get true start locations.

Far from explored the whole map yet, but I quite like it. It's been a pain to find a good japan/asia map that isn't too big, or too small.

Seems really strange. Anyone having the same problem? Seems to work right now.

hey, your maps dont show up in my list. I have enabled the mod and deleted the cache, but nothing seems to work. Any thoughts?

OK, thanks
Alej  [author] 3 Nov, 2015 @ 10:02am 
@Dennis[DK] you can change that in WorldBuilder, it's easy.
@JP Yeah go ahead

I would love if it was possible to choose an other difficulty or game speed, in stead of the locked/fixed choices as it is now.
