Here's a sample of TurtleRun.flc

And here's where it all ends...:(

I heard and obeyed. :scan:

Yet another excellent addition :thumbsup:

... Funny, also -- I've been giving a lot of thought to what New World civilizations might have accomplished without European interference, if for no other reason than to have some interesting UUs, and somehow my imagination can easily place this in a Caribbean Columbus never discovered ...

-Oz

Woh! This is a "needed" one!

I love the euro units (i play with euro civs most of the time), but this doesn't mean that have to exist only then!
I become happier when a new unit is for civs wich have just a few options.

Thank you a lot!

Japonese ships are like this?

It's Korean, hence the name 'Korean Turtle Ship':crazyeye:

Another incredible unit,...

We're lucky to have you here, monsieur aaglo.

;) Great work aaglo....
We're you unable to add in the flame attack to the dragon's head too...

Klyde, no. Your request just came a bit too late (I was already on my way home). ;)

Nice unit :)

Don't quite understand what you mean Your request just came a bit too late (I was already on my way home).

Don't quite understand what you mean

I have a work. I have internet access only at work.

Got it? ;)

I got it:cool:

So I take it your back at work.....so how about the question about the flame attack?

Bad-ass!

I'll be boring and say :goodjob:

Costa e Silva, late japanese ships were similiar, but without the "turtle" shell and retractable masts, more like junks. afaik only early jap ships were quite unique (sort of floating fortresses); someone posted a requests for those too.

I believe it would be a bit fantasy-like stuff...

Hmm, someone else could edit the unit... add the flamethrower flames to the default pics...

I wouldn't want to do that... ;)

very nice:goodjob:

Woah! That's awesome, and you did it so quickly. I'm very impressed. :D

edit: I just looked at the unit in FLICster, and it is easily some of the best custom work I've seen.

Nice:D
something to blow out of the water:p

You're not close to be boring embryodead.
You gime what i had search for when i ask.
I understand a little about boats, asians even more, so i ask how were japs ones, to know if i use the junk-tongkang style or this.

So thank you a lot.

i said i'll boring saying "goodjob" :) that's about the unit.

Ahaha!

Sorry for my confusion!
My english is not good as it sould be...

Well, thank you anyway.

Wow... This looks amazing :)

Thank you for your compliments, you are too kind :worshp:

well i was worried that the dragonhead and sails might not look good but it turned out reallly well , another great unit for the collection :)

Did you use a 3d program for this unit, Aaglo?

Btw, excellent unit!


AK

Yes I did. www.povray.org is the place you can visit, and download the program I'm using .Yep, it's freeware, but the downside is the at-least-4-months-learning-curve :lol:

I just noticed, that the TurtleLarge.pcx has wrong background colour index (255) which makes it transparent, and thus MAGENTA in the civilopedia. Here are the new ones ;)

The same problem is also atleast in the B-29, Bristol Beaufighter, He-111 bomber and Me-110's. And propably in the Gloster gladiator too... :(

Here's the new pcx-file ;)

there a same transparency problem with the dragons picture for civilopedia..

could you put the new large.pcx in a zip file please, i can only save it as a btmp or tif. I cannot convert them into pcx..

Dragons?

I don't know what you are talking about... :hmmm:

has anybody tested this unit in game? I have, and it looks great, though there seems to be a problem... When the ship is on offense, it operates properly--turns and fires it's broadsides... but when attacked, that is when the ship is defending, it does not rotate, the opposing/attacking ship just runs onto the same tile and they appear to ram on the bows, and fire their broadsides off to the side.

I'm not crazy, have a look at this thread, it's a problem with quite a few ships. Don't believe me? download the scenario and tell me what I've done wrong.

aaglo: well someone made some dragons (white, red, green,blue? & black) Nice graphics & sound but the civilopedia pcx has transparency problems.

(you can find them in the unit library if you're interested)

(you can find them in the unit library if you're interested) Kinboat made those Dragons, methinks

It's Korean, hence the name 'Korean Turtle Ship':crazyeye:I agree, koreans made it so we should get the creddit. :cool:

To my knowledge, this unit has been wanted to the game before the game was even released. Bring on the bad-ass asian ship!

Download (http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads4/KoreanTurtleShip.zip)

can it shoot fire out of the dragons mouth

I'm going to have to put more memory in my computer to handle all the great units you're making! I'm starting to get complaints about using virtual memory because I've installed almost all of your units. It's worth it. Thanks!

Looks great! FYI, for those who might not know, the turtle ships were ironclads (world's first), and they were used against the Japanese navy (which was the best in Asia and perhaps in the world at the time) and anihilated it despite being outnumbered hundreds to one. Basically an invulnerable ship for the time, and technological triumph.

No reason to revive a two-year-dead thread now...
