Iconian's Really Huge Map Size Mod

Description
The "Huge" map size is big, but was never really big enough for me.

DEFAULT Huge map settings:

12 major civs
24 minor civs
128 tiles wide
80 tiles tall
7 max religions
7 natural wonders
6 target cities (the number of cities major AI's attempt to have?)
132 estimated cities (total number of cities for the map?)

10,240 total tiles




MY MOD Huge map settings:

22 major civs
35 minor civs
170 tiles wide
110 tiles tall
16 max religions
14 natural wonders
20 target cities (the number of cities major AI's attempt to have?)
400 estimated cities (total number of cities for the map?)

18,700 total tiles

I tested maps with more than 20,000 tiles a while back, but they had some sort of glitch I no longer recall, so I settled on 170x110 as a nice round number.

If this mod sounds useful to you, you may enjoy my larger mod Fantastic Ancients, which I specifically tested using this mod, and brings together elements from most of my mods and then expands far upon it all: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2827097612&searchtext=

This works brilliantly on Mac Monterey. Also, combined with your other mod of having the whole map visible, it actually becomes brilliant to study it all on marathon pace, you can effectively see it all grow
Take some screenshots of the bottom right map over the course of your whole game to get a timelapse.

The fact that these maps are so incredibly large means the resolution of the minimap actually starts to look pretty good.

@ Folio_Nov9m: I'm just writing to let you know it's probably going to be a while before I can get to this. Lately I've had a lot of computer problems. In fact I've barely been on Steam since May. Hopefully in the next few weeks or months I can get my computers most working again and reinstall Civ 5, but I'd have to look at the issue to see what you're talking about. In the meantime . . . you may need to play around with the settings. Or go to the Civ Fanatics forums, maybe here: https://forums.civfanatics.com/forums/civ5-technical-support.409/

Thanks for the mod!
Could you help me please?
If I choose map type = continent, it works fine. But continent plus has default size =(

"so you'll just need to play on a Huge map to use it."

"I can't find mods wich give me more Founder"
if you use vp, maybe there is something like that on civfanatics vp forum.

@Gubernator: Here's what Breadbeard wrote on December 14:

@Iconian, I really love that I finally can use more religions. My only problem is, that I can't find mods wich give me more Founder (10 in Game) and improvement (9 in game) beliefs. Without at least 16 founder beliefs it is impossible to create all 16 religions. I'm stuck on 10.

@Arieviloj: And you did click to activate it, right?

If so, note that this mod isn't an actual map, nor does it add additional map sizes. It just changes the settings of Huge maps, so you'll just need to play on a Huge map to use it.

Or can you specifically say in which file you changed the number of religions, I just searched and couldn't find it. The size of the map affects the number of religions, but there seems to be only 7 maximum for a huge map. Yes, and this is your description of the settings, I don't quite understand why you are not sure that everything works on them

@Iconian Yes. But not on map setup or advaced setup.

@Gubernator
This mod just changes the default values for the Huge map size, so all I did was just change the number of religions that could be supported. However, according to one or two others that posted on this thread, because the mod doesn't increase the number of founder beliefs as well, 16 religions might not actually be able to be founded. Sometime I may try to figure out how to change the number of founder beliefs, but I've been pretty busy lately. But according to that other person, I believe the Race for Religion mod may provide 16 founder beliefs.

@Arieviloj
Does Iconian's Really Huge Map Size Mod appear in your mod list when you go to the mods screen?
