Ok, after a long time breaking my head, using multiple different mod set-ups, I figured it out why this great mod fails on Nubia. For people encountering the same: in the bbs_bias_master.sql file, some biases are removed from civs, that mostly make sense, they are not essential, and would needlessly limit possible placement for other civs, and even give unwanted placement; but for Nubia there is an error, you should comment out this line: "DELETE FROM StartBiasTerrains WHERE CivilizationType='CIVILIZATION_NUBIA' AND TerrainType IN ('TERRAIN_DESERT_HILLS', 'TERRAIN_DESERT');" (by puttin "--" at the start of the line). Nubia needs Desert, long live Nubia!

Started multiple games, Nubia never starts on Dessert. I suspect because her Dessert bias is only Tier 2. This mod doesn't change the vanilla biases themselves right? I've tried many combinations of mods to get what I want: starting locations for each civ that make sense, and configurable distance from other civs. Seems like that would be doable in 2025, while I recognize the complexity. Your mod comes the closest in my experience, but in this example (Nubia), it fails. Anyone with tips? Other mods, change of settings? Is it possible to alter the biases themselves? I haven't found an up to date mod that only does this. Then I could just use that in combination with your great mod to hopefully achieve what I need. Thanks for taking the time!

why tundra has so many resources in every map? I don't play civilization good at tundra...

Hi, i like to play random map and i have to remap anytime bbm is not supported. I'd like to have a map pool that only includes bbm supported maps. how can i do it ? Is there a mod for this or a function in the game ?

I no longer had the problems cited in the previous post. I do notice however that maps tend to be made of endless hills, with few flat and few mountain tiles.

After installing BBM I successfully started a couple of games Huge map and then enormous and played for a while fine; then I started another game enormous with Teddy Roosevelt and I got a message about 'some problem with a mod' and the new game I was starting failed to start. When I tried again, it did start but an event with a barbarian symbol popped up turn one saying something like "Firaxis event successfully fired". I had never seen that and I didn't continue because it seemed weird. I'm not sure if BBM is causing this.

МЕНЯ ЕБАЛИ

Has anyone reported any lag problems since the latest 1.1 update? I seem to be having lag issues and I think this is the only mod that I have loaded that was updated recently occurring at the same time I started to get lag issues.

Infinite loading happens when there is mod conflicts, it cannot be used at the same time as other mods that change map generation and I can't list them all. I will update the description

DOESNT WORK! - When starting a new game, its stuck in loading screen.

@Lucky Think of this mod as the successor to BBS. It is being actively developed (unlike BBS) and is the primary map mod used for multiplayer games.

Can anyone share the key differences between this and BBS? I see BBM is more recently updated.

This is a great mod, however it adds in new natural wonders and the documentation on these is very lacking. I would appreciate a more transparent documentation of what the wonders do and the reasoning behind adding them. The google docs just says "adds new natural wonders" and doesn't elaborate on which wonders it adds and what they do. Given that this mod is all about balancing the map generation and placement of civs/resources, it feels out of place to also add new content such as natural wonders.

Either way, thanks for the development!

I will update the changelog with wonders and BBS differences in january

Can you please for the love of god add a list of natural wonders added somewhere anywhere?

what is the difference between BBS and BBM ???

I tried, but even diabling terra miriabilis, keep the forever loading issue, maybe other mod

Terra mirabilis is an identified mod conflicting with bbm as in 1.0 leading to Infinite loading

I have many others mods, maybe someone conflicting the load of the game, but no error or crashing, junt dont load

I cant understand why my game dont load. The leader screens appears, but never finish the loading screen.

this mod BLOWS

Strongly encourage to enhance Qin! As a culture Player, spent over 3000 games on it for BBG but when I try to play other civ like Canada or Russia, I feel a tremendous unequal level compared to China. 45% UU? what is That? try to play it and you will see there is seriously no use on it. And the Great Wall, you can just look Canada's Hockey place and just compare it. Need enhance, even a bit. To make this civ more balanced.

Hi BaNiPouZ,
your mod has been translated by onyxum into German and the translation is now part of the German translations for Civilization VI mods mod pack.
We would be more than happy if you could refer to the language translation in your mod description.

hate that this mod adds some broken natural wonders but doesnt say anything about it...

@A9Banshee this is typically mod desync you might need to uninstall mods, sometimes restart Steam before subbing to mods again. BBM does nothing after map generation.

@Tundra there is no exception in bias for norway and will get two resources for harbor in cap. But there is an identified issue with coastal lux resources not properly distributed on map that will get fixed.

(Originally from BBG comment) Have issue when playing multiplayer with friend, whoever is not the host when the next turn cycles, gets kicked to loading screendue to desyncing. Then, for the non-host player, govenor promotions from previous turn undo, and i had a build i received from a hut the previous turn, vanished from existance. It has happened the last 10 days or so, across several maps. (Update) Started same map type next day, without BBM, no desync thru 60 turns so far.

Seems to have a lot of jungle spawns (I only tested on Continents, Lakes, 7 Seas)

One thing I have noticed is that Harald (Varangian) consistently has spawns without many sea resources, regardless of "Abundant" resources being set. Not sure if this is civ related or if its map related. I will cruised through some practice rounds on CPL settings to work on an opener and in all but 2 games of 20 did he have enough sea resources for harbor to make sense in any of his first three cities. May be something worth looking into.

The complete changelog is on the way. What do you mean Korean hills zanylazarus, it has a minimum hills to have ring 1 and 2 to respect bias

Give back Korean hills rn or I'll cry

what is the difference between BBS and BBM ???

Strategics resources are always garanteed (horses and iron ring 2, rest ring 4 or 5)

Compared to BBS, there's no "Spawn Guaranteed" option for Strategic Resources, is there anyway a kind of balance around that for every player or u have to pray for RNG ?

I don't understand the last sentence in your description.
Which combination do you recommend: BBG+BBS or BBG+BBM

I will investigate about continents, but the map generation has not been changed except for pangaea in this mod

Had everyone clean out their mods folder and download the mod list we were using. Works perfectly.

After the latest change, it seems the Continents map is quite unbalanced imo. Instead of 2 big continents, the latest version generates small and many continents per 1 ~ 2 civ(s). Furthermore, sometimes 90% of City States belong to a continent, which is absolutely game-broken.

Hi !
I was able to enter the game in solo with BBG and other mod installed
However, natural wonders that you added on the list does not appear during World formation. It's a shame, beacause these new natural wonders looked like a great addition to existing ones. Do you think you will keep them in the mod ?

I had the same issue, except it started with the Aug 12th updates. I'm usually the one hosting, and the only one with it subscribed.

pretty sure the update made yesterday (15th august) broke multiplyer lobbies, me and my friends had constant de-synchs and the like. when we hosted a game with this mod turned off the game worked just fine. something to look into?

I figured out the issue. It conflicts with YNaMP and seems to work if you unsubscribe from that.

I did not have any feedback on infinite loading outside of this comment section. BBM was intended to work with BBG mod so I encourage you to try with it.

@yere vanilla korea and greece have hills bias and tundra takes priority in BBM by default, it will be fix in the next update or use BBG in the meantime (these biases are removed there)

East vs west planned next update

Infinite loading screen issue persists. Does anyone know any fixes? I've redownloaded it, tried it on my laptop and desktop, nothing works.

cringe

Out of 20-30 restarts on Seondeok and Pericles, I spawned on tundra every single time, except for one start on Seondeok. Seems like a weird bias and I'm assuming it's not intentional? I haven't tested other civs but I noticed it on these two. I only have a bunch of UI mods and the spawns were normal again once I switched to BBS. I did this in singleplayer standard Pangea.

is this meant as a replacement of BBS ?

Any ideas how to fix?

Same here with the issue of the infinite loadingscreen

Been getting infinite loading screen whenever i use this mod. I set up a game and click play and it just stays on the loading title for the leader you're playing as.

Does bbm support evw?
