ICBM Nuclear Missile

Description
This mod adds the ICBM unit; a true, nuclear INTERCONTINENTAL BALLISTIC MISSILE
===========================================================================

This mod MAY NOT WORK so use at your own peril :D

++++++++++
BEFORE YOU START A WHOLE NEW, LONG-TERM GAME, TRY THIS MOD TO SEE IF IT WORKS PROPERLY. DO A QUICK GAME IN THE INFORMATION AGE AND SEE IF THE MOD WORKS OKAY! IF IT WORKS OKAY, THEN START A NEW GAME FROM THE BEGINNING.

-- YOU NEED TO START A NEW GAME FOR THIS TO WORK --
Go to MODS, Activate this mod, THEN Play the game with the mod.

If that doesn't work, PLEASE VISIT whoward69's guide here: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=465972

If that STILL doesn't work, PLEASE VISIT Thalassicus' guide on making mods work if they don't here: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=440525

This should work with all expansions/vanilla.

IF YOU HAVE A MAC, you can make this mod work BUT it does take a fair amount of work to do so. Please visit http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=477763 It will explain how to do it. Or you could just try it the regular way; it may work, you never know.

===========================================================================

IF IT CRASHES YOUR GAME,

Go to C:\Users\[YOURUSERNAME]\Documents\My Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 5\MODS\ICBM Nuclear Missile (v 2)\XML\Units

Right-click on Unit_InterContinentalBallisticMissile.xml and click on Edit.

Then, once it's opened in notepad, scroll down to where the Range tags are. Delete the 110 and put in 50 (or less if you want; depending on how far you want the range of the ICBM to go, and what won't crash your computer).

Click on File then Save. Then play the mod. If it still doesn't work, follow the instructions on clearing your cache folder here: here: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=440525 and see if that works.

I've made a small mod which changes the rules of nuclear warfare, but also should fix CTD problem of this one.

Does this icbm destroy cities in one strike?
Happyguy22 23 Jun, 2016 @ 8:42am 
Does this replace the ingame "Nuclear missile" or is it a totally different unit?

@VideoJuegoDiego Thank you mate, it worked for me !

ATTENTION ATTENTION, IF YOU HAVE CRASHES FROM THIS MOD, READ THE FOLLOWING AND COMPLY.


Copy and paste into your file search bar:

*** C:\Users\[YOURUSERNAME]\Documents\My Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 5\MODS\ICBM Nuclear Missile (v 2)\XML\Units ***

Also, notice how you must fill in your username ^


Go to this file with notepad:

*** Unit_InterContinentalBallisticMissile.xml ***

go to edit, and find "range", then change the range from 110, to -1
save the notepad, close it, and run your game.


This will resolve any crashes you may probably have.
It most certainly worked for me.
