- Tamoio is the unique unit of the Tupi civilization. If u want the full civilization, including the unit, go to http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=89903&page=1&pp=20

Civilopedia, Tamoio (UU):
The unique unit of the Tupi civilization is Tamoios, it replaces standard archer and has 03 moves by turn, instead of 01 and cost 10 shields more. The Tamoio warriors know their territory better then the Portuguese or other enemies, so they can move faster and surprise them. They use archers, blades and small canoes (pirogas) that move quickly in the rivers. Portugal used powder arms against Cacique Cunhambebe forces in "Guerra dos Tamoios" or "Tamoio War" and was defeated in starting battles, demonstrating the power of Tamoio archers.

Thanks for the Tamoio - looks good in the previews, I'll have to download it and have a look what it's like in-game.

The piroga is the one I'm really interested in :) . Are you doing a settler and a worker at all?

The animation doesn't look too bad but he seems a little large by comparison to the regular civ units - is this just my imagination?

These images have double of the size in game ones (there, they have 69x69 pixels), the similar size of the regular units. Thanks for enjoying!

Thanks friend!
I have to produce a "lunar settler", some kind of lunar jeep that works like a settler for future eras, but if I change the textures it could be a good "motorezed settler" for indust and modern eras. For worker I have to do the Neanderthal Worker for some Mods/scenarios mine. But if u have any request of specific worker/settler, tell me, if I can, I do them to your mods :)

I've been wanting a Native American worker and settler for a while. If you get a chance to have a go at this - perhaps in a Tupi style - it would be great ;) .

I've been wanting a Native American worker and settler for a while. If you get a chance to have a go at this - perhaps in a Tupi style - it would be great ;) .

Since the model and texture are ready, it is not hard to do a NA settler and worker, just need give them animation :) . And these two units also could be good sum to ACM, the worker and settler present in Civ3 do not look like natives. Yes, I can do these request, but I have a lot of work to do first, like these firt Tupi units, motorezed settler, mountede units, aircrafts and others.

Ok, I've asked on a Tupi-language Yahoogroup if the names of these units are correct... According to them...

1. Our Pokabá-Abá should become the POKABABÁ.
2. The "naked" Pokababá should be called KA'AMONDOSARA (or Caamondoçara, in an alternate spelling). That's Tupi for Huntsman.
3. The Iaguará-Abá should be the IAGUARABÁ (or Jaguarabá).

Oh, and nice work on the Tamoio, as usual! :goodjob:

This is a good unit Civarmy! I think your units are begining to look as good as your leaderheads!

I'd like to make a suggestion based on the previews. I didn't download that actual unit files, so I don't know if those animations are different from the those in the preview or not.

Anyway, in the preview, it looks like you are rotating the "body" of your figure or lowering the "y-trans" of the figures "body." I would recommend rotating and adjusting the "hip" instead. Then adjust the feet is neccessary--just make sure that the "IK-chain" for the feet is on. (I think it's the "IK-chain," but I don't have poser with me right now.) That should help prevent things like the feet passing throught the "GROUND" plane in the victory animation preview.

Cool, I can use these for my island civ in my mod,:goodjob:

Great unit :) indeed !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :goodjob:

One suggestion though: Set the run speed to 20ms delay, otherwise he will look like a Phantomime...

Thanks for enjoying the unit!!!
Thanks to all the tips, I have to try it in my next units!!! I'm little dizzy with all these animations, some errors appear in the final animations, but when I started do leaderheads I had the same doubts and confusion, with time they will be solved :)

:thanx: :thanx: :thanx: :thanx: :thanx:

the Animations are a tad slow but the walk seems pretty smooth and streamlined. is there any chance you could fix the death anim otherwise the others seem fine.

CivArmy... you are getting better and better with your units! :)

@citizen001: For while these units will be like they are, I can do changes in the future ;)

@TopGun69: thanks friend!!!

@all: the Zarabatana unit is available in the second post of this treat :) Maybe in hours or tomorrow I can post the Piroga (Tupi canoe).

Incidentally, I know English isn't your first language so I hope you don't mind if rewrite your Zarabatananeiros description:

"Zarabatananeiros are Tupi warriors that uses the Zarabatana, a weapon made of bamboo used to fire poison projectiles [darts?] at the enemy. Silent and deadly..."

The Piroga unit (boat) is available, if u want download the unit with its own civilization, the Jê, go to http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?p=2171379#post2171379 . if u have ever downloaded this civ, just download the small first file again.

Why are the Fidget and the Default the same on your units? The fidget plays DURING the defualt.

I like the Piroga, but it looks like its firing way to many arrows for such a small boat(with only two crewmembers), almost like the boat has built-in arrow launchers or something... :goodjob: :lol:

A very good work you've made here with the Tupi.Thanks a lot:)
I am waiting anxiously for the settler and the worker unit since from what I see from your preview they can be used for other Civs as well.Keep it up and along with the leaderheads you can be an excellent unit maker too.

Ah, great, they're out :)
Thanks Civ

One request, please, CivArmy, don't put your files in directory-structured archives. It's just a pain to unzip properly if you don't use the original structure.

I think it is the best way to organize the file is put them in the structure of the game, so, when someone download the *.zip, he knows where which file must be in them Civ3 directory.
Thanks for the ellogie, BTW!!!

@skam0073: thanks!!!

You did know how to add things to Civ3 without a problem Civarmy, thats for sure!

Can you show us what they look like in-game?

Can you show us what they look like in-game?

the units look like equal in the game, cos they are the same model :)

Uh... He means something like this: :)

No problem, I can post a image look like this when I finish the pack :D

The settler called Tabusuguara is ready, the link is http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads8/Tabusuguara.zip

I doubt: when some unit slave it, it do not turn workers, just turn a settler of the other civilization, how can I program it to turn two workers (how happens in the currently game)???

Re: Iaguaraba: What sounds do you recommend? Something like AoE's Dire Wolf sounds would be nice? Does anybody have .wav files like that?

I didn't find sounds of the oncelot or lion :( , if u find, tell me, I can join these sounds in the unit, it could be a good sum :D

See if these sounds are what you're looking for:

2. http://www.zooshop-muenchen.de/sounds/leopard.mp3
3. http://www.zooshop-muenchen.de/sounds/ozelot.mp3 (only sound I could find of an ocelot... didn't know they sound that silly :p)

Can't look for others right now, as I'm in a bit of a hurry... I'll post more as soon as I can. Then, choose one and I'll convert it. :)

It seems that your death animations kinda rotate around the stomach as they fall down, rather than tipping over. You might want to make the tip more, it will probably make them look more realistic. Also, the previews don't do you or your units justice at all :D. Very nice units :goodjob:, especially for the quantity... How long did it take you to make these?

Maybe I take one day and half to do each unit, I don't know...

Well, I checked the Sounds thread and found tiger and lion sounds which are pretty close to a Jaguar....

Just need finished more 5 units (including the 2 last Tupi ones) to do these general correction, in the Tupi and non-Tupi units. :) Just stading by fellows!

Woah! Can't believe I missed this thread. Nice work! :clap:

Thanks for the Guayacuru, it will be very good in my mod. Two requests: A lightly armored archer-rider or horseman, and a heavily armored rider. If you could make them, that would be helpful.

That I like the sound of....Brazilian Units, Aztek Knights, Sci-Fi units.....your raising the bar pretty high Civarmy!

Hey CivArmy, these are great, but some like the Guayacuru are too small. Maybe it's just Civ3Flic, but they're very small.

I've just seen the settler and worker - thank-you for doing those!! I am extremely grateful :goodjob: !!

Hey CivArmy, these are great, but some like the Guayacuru are too small. Maybe it's just Civ3Flic, but they're very small.

I agree, I must re-do some units with fw corrections, the sizes of Guayacuru needs work to be fixed, it is little small them other units. It is not hard to b done and I'll do it soon.

Hey CivArmy! Its good you decided to improve your tupi units, since im using your tupi civ in my mod, i do need tupi units since the north american indian units dont fit very well with the tupi civilization.
I think the new versions look better, but the animations need some work, they happen too fast, should be more detailed, you understand, we should see the arms of the tamoio moving to put the bow in position and shooting the arrow. But you're getting better! Keep it up! :)

thanks for enjoying :) ! Remember, some animations of the preview have worst resolution (result of *.gif change) and sometimes different speed of the ones in game :) This differences of speed in previews r my errors :blush: (I didn't config the correct speed in previews).

You're quite right! It looks better when previewed in animation shop. But here's an idea for you, your tamoio's attack animation has 8 frames for each direction, could you make a new animation using 16 frames? Dont know if that will make it any different, not a unit maker.

They look great, as always, but one thing you could still try to improve, perhaps in another version, is that in the attack anim for the archer, he should move his feet forward, rather than slide them (that's also for the fortify anim)

Ever think about giving the units more than one attack animation or more complex attack animations? Just an idea.

I added yesterday the settler and the worker and minutes ago the Oncelot Tame guy. I can re-do the animation of the Tamoio (archer), but I don't think add more frames would solve the problem :) I'll remove the feets slide :cool:

SoG: if I can I could do a attack animation 2, but it'd be more work to be done. I think maybe 10 units or less in game has 2 attack animations

Maybe just your favorite Units, the cream of the crop. Like the Caveman, just an idea.

first post, the new Tamoio :) I did the new attack animation and thought: why not re-do the unit? well, the result is in first post :)

Wow, so many!! How do you find the time to do it all?

Wow, so many!! How do you find the time to do it all?

I did this Tamoio in 30 minutes, I use good softwares, models and got some tips in 11 mounths of work of extra artworks for Civ3 :) Well, next month will be 1 years of CivArmy :cool:

First aniversary Civ! You should feel proud of all you've done for the community so far.

Good God, he's not done all that in just a year, has he? That's amazing!

I like these new units very much. They're looking pretty good.

Yea, that new Tamoio is much better!! Just have a sugestion, the left foot animation is very cool, but its a bit strange seeing the guy keep moving the foot every time he shoots an arrow, so maybe this is a good unit to do a second attack animation, so he would move the foot in the first, then keep shooting arrows and reloading ;) in the second :)
But well done! If you could make similiar improvements to the warrior and horseman units since im also using those in my mod, and im missing a spearman for the tupi :)

these are great units but ive noticed one thing about the Piroga.

The arrows are litterally shooting out of nowhere. It would be cool to see the people in the boat shooting the arrows.

But other than that :goodjob: i love them.

The way around that is to use the Piroga as an A/D/M = 0/0/whatever, but make it dead cheap. Up against a Galley or whatever it would make far more sense for the guys in the canoe to flee, or just die, than fight and maybe win.

thats true but i am soon starting a Native mod and it will be canoe against canoe but it'll work how it is

thanx again for the great units

Thanks for all the comments, ellogies and suggestions friends! I'm pround for what I did and for share the hobby Civilization with all u :)

@Madeira: Dease did the Tupi Spearman, check the forums or ask him about the link. The Tupi Spearman is one of the main weapons of this NA root.

I have some surprises (new civis, LHs, mods...) for the birth next mounth, I hope u enjoy :cool:

Thats a pikeman, I need a spearman with a shield ;)

Thats a pikeman, I need a spearman with a shield ;)

try my Arawak spearman unit called Eagle Klan, the link of its library is http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=103999 . There u found other NA untis too. Arawak r not Tupi, it is another NA root, but they lived close and some tribes had contact.
BTW, Tupi and Arawak didn't use shields, but I just discovered it after have done the Eagle Klan unit :blush:

Madeira, Dease's unit is actually a Spearman. He calls it a Pikeman just because it's easier to type. :)
