Kahotep submitted a new resource: Hatshepsut for Egypt - Adds the Pharaoh Hatshepsut as an alternative leader for Egypt. Read more about this resource...

So I'm working on a mod that adds the Pharaoh Hatshepsut as an alternative leader for Egypt, using art I created myself to represent her. The problem is that the artwork's colors get messed up in both the "Create Game" menu and the loading screen. However, this chromatic screw-up does not...

So this is an alternative leader I'm making for the Egyptian civilization in Civ VI. Right now I am working with ModBuddy's "New Leader and Civilization" template, except of course I'm excising all the stuff that creates a whole new civilization. In the final version I expect to give Hatshepsut...

I was playing as Scythia today and noticed that they receive the same "Islamic"-looking architecture as the Arab and Indian civilizations once you advance to the Classical Age. Is this really appropriate for them? I don't think they had any big cities of course, but I was under the impression...

Kahotep submitted a new resource: African Egyptians - Switches the Egyptian civilization's ethnicity to African. Read more about this resource...

This is a simple mod I'm working on which changes the ethnicity of the Egyptian civilization from Mediterranean to African, since it's supposed to represent the indigenous Egyptian (that is, African) culture and people. So far, I have actually been able to make some changes, but they're more...

I've noticed while peeking in the base game's Civilizations.xml file (Base/Assets/Gameplay/Data/Civilizations.xml) that each civilization has a particular ethnicity associated with it. For example: And: Other ethnicities I've seen are Asian, African, European, and South American. My...

So I'm in the process of creating a mod that re-skins the Egyptian War Chariot unit. I've already taken care of the .dds, .gr2, and .fxsxml portions, but I am almost completely clueless with regards to the XML part. Just how do you create an XML file that replaces the unit's vanilla texture with...

These drawings aren't 3D or animated like the best of them unfortunately, but I drew them with the idea that they would replace the default leader screens for a number of civilizations in some kind of mod. Right now I'm focusing on the ancient to classical Mediterranean world, though I'm open to...

I want to re-skin the Egyptian characters in Civilization V so that they have darker skin. I know there are tutorials out on these forums for re-skinning units like the War Chariot, but is it possible to modify the textures for leaders like Ramses II now? BTW this is what I plan to do with Ramses:

I've never liked how, throughout the history of the Civilization games, African civilizations like the Egyptians, Zulu, and Songhai always get sorted into the Middle Eastern art and music sets. It doesn't really immerse me to hear Arabic music in the background while I'm playing an African...

For the moment this is simply a mod/scenario idea I'm writing down out of boredom. Don't know if anything will come of it, but I like writing down these sorts of concepts anyway. I got the idea for this thread from Sam Y. Khanto's Ultimate CivMod idea, and like him I will probably make my mod...

Finally colored in GIMP! You may use this as a static alternate for the Egyptian civilization's Cleopatra leaderhead in any version of Civ III (that is, vanilla through Conquests). Now you get to play as, or against, a fully native Queen of Kemet!

The genomics company DNATribes, which specializes in analyzing individuals' genomes to determine their genetic relatedness to certain global populations, has done an analysis on Egyptian mummies from the 18th dynasty, including King Tut, and reported a predominantly sub-Saharan and especially...

Link I started this fanfic this morning (actually it's a rewrite of something I started last year) and it's a WIP, but I have a mental plan of how it will play out and therefore I should have it completed in a couple of days. It stars the legendary Norse warrior Beowulf, who is visiting the...

Link to Scribd I am the author of this article. My thesis is that the modern American Presidency is an evolution of the institution of monarchy which was invented in Nubia circa 3800 BC. In case Scribd is not working for some reason here is the full text of the article: Hopefully this...

In the last three days I finished a 6,875-word short story which is set in predynastic Egypt around 4000 BC. It's an action-packed coming-of-age story about a young boy who has just been initiated into manhood and must confront both wild animals and enemy tribesmen. As of now it's being reviewed...

CONCEPT In most Civ scenarios, civilizations are synonymous with countries, but in this scenario, civilizations are defined similarly to how political scientist Samuel P. Huntington defined them in his The Clash of Civilizations: as larger cultural blocs that may encompass multiple nations...
