Due to a recent patch in Steam, WorldBuilder is having problems launching an internal instance of Civ5 and thus resulting in an 'infinite hang'. We are currently working on an update that will fix this. Temporary workaround: 1) Open the Civilization V SDK entry from within Steam.
This will display the Launcher which allows you to choose between ModBuddy, WorldBuilder, the Tuner etc. 2) Right click anywhere on the launcher and select 'Create Desktop Shortcut to WorldBuilder'.
Sid Meier's Civilization V > General Discussions > Topic Details. Jun 27, 2013 @ 10:08am. I haven't been able to get the world builder to load at all for.
This will create a shortcut on your desktop that goes directly to WorldBuilder. *Here's where the work around starts* 3) Locate the WorldBuilder desktop shortcut and right click on it, then select Properties. 4) Select the 'Shortcut Tab'.
5) Where it says Target:, Add just after the last ' -PromptForGamePath. Your target should look something like this: 'C: Program Files (x86) Steam steamapps common Sid Meier's Civilization V SDK WorldBuilder x86 WorldBuilder.exe' -PromptForGamePath *NOTE that -PromptForGamePath happens AFTER the quotation mark. 6) Launch the Shortcut. This will bring up a new dialog asking if you'd like to manually select a Civ5 exe. 7) Navigate to where your Civ5 exe is stored. For me, it was C: Program Files (x86) Steam steamapps common Sid Meier's Civilization V CivilizationV.exe Hit OK! 8) You will notice the Civ5 Launcher comes up.
Select the DX9 version of Civ. 9) Everything should be good to go! Again, this is a temporary workaround!
We're working on the problem now. Worked a couple of times for me.
Worked a couple of times for me. Application: World Builder User: Unkown (Not an in-house user.) Time: Monday 3/18/2013 1:01:40 PM Runtime: 32 bit OS: Windows 2008 (Service Pack 1) Machine: PC-01 User Comments: fresh computer start > open steam > library > tools > SDK > WB > error report.
It is not like previous civs I guess where it was in the 'menu' tab. I did the mod >single player >started a map and I do not see anything that lets me go into world builder while playing. So I saved the map. I started world builder and then loaded the map.
But I am not familiar enough with the functions and it is not showing me my units (which I even turned everything off to see nothing but units) or where my starting point is at. Making it very confusing for me. I could figure it out eventually but why?
I would have to save the map. Switch to WB.(ALT-TAB) Load the map. Do what I want, switch back to game and then load it back. If it wasn't for the loading I would be all for it. I hate the loading on Civ always takes to long. Especially later in the game.
Main reason why I never really use the save/load for a better goodie hut. OR Am I a clueless idiot and I still am not getting it?
