How about getting the AI to actual use it's units with just the tiniest degree of tactical coordination and sense. It is particularly bad with archer units. I have never once had a Keshik shoot at one of my units, even when they were just parked across a river doing nothing else but standing...

Well, at the least, given the choice between adding to any tech, and adding to none because we can't define it, or of having the beakers degrade, I definitely agree that the first is preferable. I was unaware of the beaker degradation thing. I have yet to pass beyond dabbling with XML, and am...

Definitely. The Bene Gesserit look upon themselves as the self appointed saviors of humanity whose very job it is to advance the state of the human, and to preserve knowledge against the inevitable catastrophes like the one presented in the mod's storyline. All the Tleilaxu wonders and...

I finally got a chance to play with the patch installed this evening. It is striking what a great addition to the setting such a small improvement can accomplish. Having date plantations and other helpful plants or water sources amongst the treasures of the planet, rather than endless gold...

Well, Ok. I think they have strongly influenced all of the actually religious religions, but then again, following my view, the BG would have probably planned for and co-opted Paul's whole movement, so I guess that's fair. Hmmn. I see your point. Melee units shouldn't be good at shooting...

Yes and no. Mahdi seems to be some what of a spontaneous folk movement, and so I understand why there is no priest unit. Except that the BG created most of the myths that made it, one of the things they spend their time doing. I think they should be able to spread it, even if other civs...

Ahh! That would explain it. The city was only Imperial. For whatever reason, in the three games I have played, my cities have never gotten multiple religions. Well, that does restrict the Inquisitor, but, on the other hand, it might be rather difficult, realistically, to conduct a proper...

Ahh, so that's the problem. That looks much better now. Thank you.

Thanks for the info. One more question: what type of DDS file is it? I used DXT1, and while my picture shows up, and looks OK, there is a slight vertical distortion.

My Inquisitors don't work. I was playing as the Bene Gesserit, with Mahdi as my state religion. One city became Imperial. I got Theocracy, built an Inquisitor, sent it to the city, and no button for an Inquisition mission ever appeared. The AI seems not to suffer from this problem. I...

Nice work there. Thanks for the mod. [Could you tell me where to find the leaderhead .dds files in the Dune Wars folder? I would like to add a leader to my personal copy, a character from a Dune RPG I played, as a leader for the Bene Gesserit, but I cannot seem to find where to put the .dds...

I was afraid of that. Time for another programming class. Thanks.

I want to alter the nature of unit promotions so they are multiplicitive instead of additive. That is, at present a promotioon will do something like add +10% strength or such. Two such promotions add +20%. I want a cumulitive multiplying effect, so instead of adding 10%, the promotion...

First, it looks nice. But here is a thought for you: it looks more like a regular German army soldier than a Waffen SS one. Here is why: The helmet flash, using the German flag of the time in a shield shape (the swastika in circle in red field) was the German army one. That is what it...

Very good idea. It never really seemd to right that they made the Koreans without giving them this as a UU, seeing as it was actually 1.) relatively unique, and 2.) played a signifigant role in their history, actually succeeding against the Japanese when their land forces were getting...

First, a note on the word Landser: the word is a contraction of the words Landes Kinder: "children of the Land(country}" in German. It is the approximate equivelent of the British "Tommy" or US "GI" as a nickname for soldiers, though it is far older, having been around since at least the 18th...

I am having a similar problem to Marshall Rommel. I am trying to add a new tech. So, I copied Horseback Riding, in TechInfos. Then I changed <Type>TECH_HORSEBACk_RIDING</Type> to <Type>TECH_CAVALRY_TACTICS</Type>. At that point, the game loaded fine, and gave me two entries for Horseback...

I also suspected it would be difficult to do. But being unable to do more than meddle with XML myself, I find many of the things already modded around here quite amazing. Yes, Republic present a problem. If one gets one early enough in the game, one might actually have more than one ruler per...

Ket, was Flavorful ever get upgraded to Warlords? Ah, Sengoku! I really liked the original, even though much of the tech progression was of dubious accuracy as regards Japanese history and military development. I am useless as far as programming (the hard part), but should you get around...

Amazing work. I hope to see it for warlords soon. A request: Please incorporate Eusibius' religion mod (by far my favourite religion mod) into the Great Options mod.
