I've gone and created some new borders. Mainly because I was bored....but I also noticed problems picking up gray (India) and green (Japan) borders on some terriain. So these borders are thicker, and come in three flavors. Bright, Dark and Mixed.

Should work for all Civ 3 versions. Just place it in your Civ 3 folder\Art\Terrian\Territory.pcx

A preview is attached below.

The zip file contains all 4 files (my original too) and a preview of the borders.

Enjoy. :)

Preview is above.

I like visable borders, these look interesting, I will have to try them.

You need to fix the link, it don't work...

Worked for me. :confused:

Nope, sorry, doesn't work...

Looks very nice, BTW. I want to give 'em a try for sure.
:goodjob:
AK.

I uploaded the file again with a slightly different name.

Can someone tell me if it works for them now?

The file has no extension like *.pcx.

You can load it and open it from inside an application by picking show all files and then save it as a *.pcx, but you can't just double-click on it and open it.

Nope.
Try putting it in a zip. Call it CornsTerritory.zip and replace the current attachment with that one.

exactly: it says the file is called "attachment" and that there's no known filetype

Wierd....uploaded it as a .zip this time.

I had no problem with it....but I have a association for .pcx's and I use Mozilla Firebird. Maybe that makes the difference.

Damn...deleted the attachment in the first post...so here it is again in ZIP form.

Deleted and link moved to the first thread after 486 downloads.

Yep yep yep.
Download works fine now.
:goodjob:

works fine now.

Looks like Pounder and me are in-sync tonight :D

Looks nice:goodjob:

I like it! :goodjob:

Hey, the more I look at these, the better I like them, which is rare.

:cool:

They're great, IMO!

Cool....Thanks guys. :)

Gotta test 'em, they look nice. :goodjob:

Very good. :D

Looks good:goodjob:

Looks fantastic!

I love these borders.

Finally you can see, if you are inside or outside of a country.

Thank you
:goodjob: :thanx:

Oh, if you'd come to MY territory you'd have noticed I am sure ;)

Very nice job, CornMaster.
It looks really neat. Welcome change if you ask me.

I like them. :) Thanks!

Looks nice. :goodjob:

BTW TO El-Raser: No, I think you'll be the one noticing my beserkirs. :lol:

These look great! I'll be downloading them as soon as I get home from work.

Very nicely done.

Thank you.

My first post in over a year . . .

Just to say that these borders RULE. Good show!

Now if I can only find a mod to make the in-game text font thicker . . .

Great idea!!!

Been using them for a few days now, they are fantastic. Thanks!

Indeed, these really are an improvement. I can't see the demarcations for some of the border mods, but these are nicely done.

Thanks CornMaster, they look great!!

Looks nice CornMaster. Now I can tell which direction the borders are coming from. :goodjob:

Very nice borders indeed. It makes identifing the amount of land lefted in the rival countries easier for the player. Plus, I don't make a mistake when two countries of the same color type are next to each other.

No link that i can find. Im using mozzila firebird. Oh im sorry. Firefox.

Very practical. Thanks. :goodjob:

Nice. Downloading now.

I like these borders a lot. :)

They give the impression of a civ's control "fading" with the geography as well as being easy to see.

Awesome work.

ilove them and i agree with super beaver now i know which direction they come from without having to locate a city first

Thanks guys. :)

Very pretty!
Hopefully this'll make borders easier to see along rivers and trees.
I hate it when I improve a rivals terrain, thinking it's mine.
[Edit] Definitely makes them easier to see in hidden areas.
I noticed that there are gaps in some corners, though. Is there an easy fix for this?

No...I tried extending the border lines past the square area, and it does fix the gap, it also extends too far in other situations. Overall it looked very stupid.

I did try to fix this by curving the ends, but of course this didn't work because when it goes on straight....the ends would curve away from each other.

So this is what I was left with. :)

I've uploaded version 1.1 with three new borders. The preview and download is in the first post.

Darn you, Corn, now I'm going to HAVE to update my Tweaked Out mod to Version 2.5 :p.

Anyways, the new mixed borders are even easier to see along jungles and rivers than they were before. :goodjob: ;)

I use them with all versions and mods of Civ3 that I have because of this fact alone (plus they look cool).

Thanks. :)

Actually, I like the old ones more :)

Actually, I like the old ones more :)

That's why I kept them there too. ;)

They both have their advantages.

Love the borders man.

I've seen these in some GOTM screenshots and wondered what they were, I haven't come to this forum much in the past but decided to click on it for the hell of it today(i've got 3 1/2 hours to kill between exams). I'll get these as soon as I get home!

Why is this not linked to in the Terrain Graphics modifications main thread? Its taken me weeks to refind this file download thread after I did my dual install. :p

Propably because they were updated in May 2003 or so...:hmm:

This is a nice border...

Can you make one where the little thin lies are going diagnolly?

I have been looking for these borders ever since I saw them in a Stories and Tales game. Love these.
