This mod isnt showing up as a selection at all in the Civ select menu

How do you use this with true start locations

this does not show up on ynaemp

Real fun mod to play with :D

Love your mod!Thank you very much for your effort!

Another Kiwi who has totally heard of King Dick. I don't know how anybody familiar with their country's own history could have missed him, honestly. His nickname was King Dick, after all.

personally I'd scrap the defender for a dairy farm or something (a UB with passive buffs for nearby pastures?). NZ feels like it should be a diplomacy/economy/seafaring civ rather than a war civ.

For some reason the info page about New Zealand talks about Sweden-Norway.

I subscribed to the addon, enabled the mod and I couldn't see Seddon. I have the complete edition so its not because of brave new world.

I am also from New Zealand, and I have heard of him plenty. Infact there is a giant statue of him outside of Parlament.

welp,im from new zealand and i have honestly never heard of seddon,honestly nobody really has...

why make it so they have extra growth? it doesnt really make sense since new zealand has 4 million people if not less

wait these mods work in multiplayer? cool

I guess let me know when you make Australia too.

Australia please

I enjoyed the mod, thank you. A couple of suggestions you may wish to consider:
1) City spellings - Gisbourn is Gisborne; Whangari is Whangarei; Rotoura is Rotorua. I'm not sure if there are further issues for cities past that, I only built 10 but you can easily check the spelling of others in any atlas. It's really nice to play NZ but sad when little errors like this pop up.
2) The ANZAC unit was a good idea and I loved the design. I quite liked the Defender as well, although perhaps a special building may have been better? I was thinking maybe a War Memorial in place of the Temple - providing +1 Faith, +2 Culture and +1 Happiness, perhaps.
Otherwise it was great, thanks for all the hard work.

interesting

Australia Mod

How about Ghostbusters Mod?
I have ideas...

UA- Containment Center- gives defence to every city.
UU1- Ghostbuster- replaces rifleman, better attack, defence, etc.
UU2- Ectomoblie- replaces tank, better movment, can attack then move.

Those are suggestions, but i think this would be awesome.

how bout working on the republic of Florence

you should work on a red china mod

Fair enough

@alpha2117 That's why they're both defensive units; this civ was more early-NZ, leaving space for a late-game Tourism NZ in the future. Farming would've been okay, but I couldn't really think of anything, and I think the immigration-trade focus is more appropriate for early NZ.

It was fun although two military units seemed a little odd for NZ. I would have thought something to do with either farming or sport or tourism would have worked better. I really don't think of them as a naval power traditionally so the defender just feels off.

the only thing that I can see that has changed is that i started the game with Advanced Air Units v8 but it has updated to v9. Im going to assume that is where the issue is

Love the mod! Great work and thank you very much!

However I now seem to have an issue.. I was playing with New Zealand and made it through to the Medieval era (i believe). But now when i try to launch the save game, i get a CTD with an error telling me that DX11 has crashed.

I was using the following mods

JFD: New Zealand
JFD: Germany (Adolf)
AAU (Advanced air units)
ANU (Advanced Naval Units)
Reveal Iron earlier
More Luxuries

If i disable the NZ Mod, i can still play as Germany, however not as New Zealand. Im not sure if the AAU and ANU mods have updated and caused an issue with the NZ mod. I am also kinda new to using mods so there is a chance I have done something wrong. Any help or direction would be appreciated :)

Can we have some Australia

Nice mod. Just finished a long game as NZ.
Few constructive criticisms:
* Spelling of some cities is wrong
* The ANZAC was a good choice for unit but not sure why the Defender. When I made an NZ civ in Civ3 I had a Maori Warrior with +1 attack than a Warrior. Or possibly better would be the building Marae replacing.. I dont know :p
But overall it was a great mod to play. Thanks :)

Thank you for this, just what I was looking for! Very high quality, works great.

I wonder if you can make a rework of the Chinese Leader. I like Qin Shi Huang from Civ 4 better. Let the name for his trait called "The First Emperor", decreasing the generation speed of great writers, artists by 50% (he allegedly did the "Burning of books and burying of scholars") but increasing productivity of workers by 50% and that of cities when producing wonders by 50% (kind of compensating for the GPP loss). Thank you very much

@Nano_Ranger The Governor-General doesn't work for the UK Govt, he works for the sovereign, which, in NZ, is the Queen of New Zealand. The UK has absolutely no (legal) power over NZ.

but the uk still has the governor general which shows that there is still power over the countries

@Nano_Ranger The GG is usually a local.

Australia and Canada are completely independent from the UK, as is NZ.

And the govenor general can chose to kick the leaders out of the countries "hopes the govenor general fires Tony Abbott"

New Zealand is only as independant as Australia and Canada and those 2 countries still have British influence

NZ for the win need to replace one of the uniqe units with maoris

@Sir Stephen You dare deny New Zealand it's independence?!

@HepatitisD yes I know what the silver fern is but it still should be a british flag in the corner with the stars

@JFD Are you considering making some of the south pacific island nations, I understand you're busy but would you possibly consider this? Thanks.

~Shadow

This is really nice. I like it! How convient for me

@ Sir Stephen Bro, do you even Silver Fern?

@Nicholas Minaj Actually, I've been planning one for a while; just waiting on art.

Don't know if you take suggestions but I think you should try an Akhenaten Egypt. Thanks for the mod, I love your stuff.

It should be a british emblem not that silly leaf

Thanks! :D

@Awesumo47 You might be interested in this: http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=323041325&searchtext=Maori

Could you do a Maori version of this? Maybe The Ngapuhi under Hone Heke..?

dude pls make ur own Australia or Canada civ(s) because those 2 countries are really important in the world

Can you please crate latvian civilazation? there is one but not so good qualitty as your job, Latvia had some good history, like the perioud of 1918-1940, or nowdays, or even some old days stuff like livonia, courland and other stuff.
