Getting game crashed when trying to active great philosopher. Could you fix it? Tried to deactivate all mods except RTP to test - still crash.

playing with Vox Populi, and for some reason AI are able to select philosophy as their first social policy

When I trying to enable this mod, I get a message that says I'm missing required dependency. I have the entire Rise to Power mod pack downloaded however. Is there just a bug with this particular mod? Everything else works great.

Any update on this working without community patch?
I play on Mac but this looks like a cool system! Thanks

A small suggestion: Since al the other RtP mods are numbered, could you add a number to this one, too?

I've never used VP, I've only ever used the CP that's listed in the steam workshop.

I used In Game Editor to see if i can repair this injustice via giving them to me (great philosopher ) but they do not even appear in this menu where every other modded units does so i think they might be a quack with that and also all philosophy are givable via this menu so i must be a problem only with the unit and not the mechanics i think.

Simple question i've tried today you're full collection of rise to power and vox populi but i never get great philosopher that spawn. What i mean is that Oracle doesn't work and give 2 policy as already noticed the 15/02/20 by stefvanwoensel + whenever i finish a civics tree i never got one too and no free policy like for the Oracle so i don't know if i'm the only one experimenting this but it's quite sad because the mechanic seem really good. Also i made all change needed for the .sql file to work properly with my game language (french) as explained on a VP thread regarding this issues please if you can help do so i would be really greatful.

Btw, you don't need to use Vox Populi, only the Community Patch - which makes no changes to Happiness.
JFD  [author] 14 Mar, 2020 @ 7:18pm 
I'm not sure. I would like to but unlike other efforts to do so this mod depends quite deeply on CP introduced features. It's something I plan on looking into though.
Полинкаж (Polinkazh) 14 Mar, 2020 @ 6:41pm 
will you ever patch this so that it doesn't require the CP? I don't like playing with the CP because it makes happiness OP

Try deleting your cache in My Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 5

Trying to run with the Community Patch and only your mods but the game crashes everytime I try to start. Any suggestions on a fix?
JFD  [author] 24 Feb, 2020 @ 12:38am 
No, just the CP by itself. Though VP should work fine
Dandy Drake 24 Feb, 2020 @ 12:37am 
community patch = vp ?
Jungfreud 18 Feb, 2020 @ 10:11am 
the reformation belief that lets you get and great person applies to philosopher--seems OP--on top of that it remains at a constant cost so it basically just get one every turn late game

The Oracle gave a free social policy and a Great Philosopher that I wasn't able to use for the unique social policy (so effectively I got 2 free social policies)
Lucius, the Heavenly Dragon 13 Jan, 2020 @ 7:40am 
Ah yes, I was about to ask a stupid question. So it turns out that I need the community patch for this mod to work. Anyways I had the same problem as the other two. Great Philosopher appeared but the side menu simply wasn't there.
Somehow I got this to work without the missing content pop up on the mod enabling screen.
Anyways thanks for the mod.

Hi! Thank you for creating this mod. But I have a cuestion. How does the philosophers spend in th game. I have one but I dont know what to do with it. There is no button to spend nor in the cities or outside.

It's been over 2.5 weeks and this question has gone unanswered. Quite disgusting to be frank.
T-100-steron 4 Jan, 2020 @ 11:23am 
Good

Great philosophers cannot be consumed.
Nordlys 27 Nov, 2019 @ 11:31am 
My game crashing when I open this mode with Community Patch mode and If I don't open Community Patch, it isn't work normally and I can't spend philosophers.
Firathmagi 7 Nov, 2019 @ 11:40am 
i don't have either free policy options or culture needed to select a new policy even tho its prompting me to select a policy
tho i seem to have fixed th problem by disabling ideological values mod
JFD  [author] 6 Nov, 2019 @ 4:07pm 
How do you have no available policies?
Firathmagi 5 Nov, 2019 @ 4:14pm 
so i'm running it to a problem where i get stuck being prompted to pick a policy when i have no available policies, im only running rise to power mod pack and some of your custom civs
anyidea what the cause is?
Lucius, the Heavenly Dragon 2 Nov, 2019 @ 4:38pm 
I started a game of this, with most of the Rise to Power Collection, and a few other minor mods, such as Keldur Hall(tundra Petra), Tundrafarms and JungleMills, Printing House, Enlightenment Era, Community Patch(the one linked with this mod), Natural Wonder High Spawn Increase and your United States with Teddy Roosevelt mod.
I met Alexander who had 2 Philosophy in the Diplomacy Tab under additional information. I later met Gandhi who had 1 piety, so I was confused. I think it might be a bug. It was pretty early, at around turn 30 or so. I just thought I should mention it, in case it might be a bug.

I am French so excuse the spelling. Could you make the Byzantine Empire of Constantine XI Paleologus the last Byzantine Emperor. I do not know if it's here or we can make mod proposals otherwise super mod.
JFD  [author] 28 Oct, 2019 @ 2:42am 
@broseph not this time, I'm afraid. There are 108 Great Philosophers with as many unique effects and the base game just isn't flexible enough.
nicovallejos 27 Oct, 2019 @ 11:14pm 
@broseph

I'm afraid this mod requires the Community Patch
brometheus 27 Oct, 2019 @ 10:49pm 
Very cool, thanks for your hard work JFD :wololo:
Question - is there any way to use this mod without the Community Patch?
The Grimwar 25 Oct, 2019 @ 11:37pm 
Ah, I see, so Marx can be a good guy in his game...cool.
JFD  [author] 25 Oct, 2019 @ 5:20pm 
Yes, Marx is there alongside Durkheim and Weber. I picked Nietzsche over Schopenhauer because the effect would've been too similar (overcoming meaninglessness through creativity; i.e. Great Work bonus).
The Grimwar 25 Oct, 2019 @ 4:54pm 
Serious question...is Karl Marx in this mod?
Kustosz 25 Oct, 2019 @ 12:40pm 
What a great idea! I hope it contains Schopenhauer
